Right now, there's so many great games out that I want to buy, I decided to join gamefly.com. Those 60 dollar purchases add up fast.

anybody here have Rainbow Six Vegas 2? I used to play the original Rainbow Six games back in the day and loved them, I played some of Vegas 1 with a friend and even tho it was very difficult, it was a lot of fun.

I have both. I finished Rainbow Six Vegas 1 but haven't finished 2. I'm not sure why I moved away from it.

I loved the first one. I'm going to have to revisit 2 after I get through the slog of games I've got lined up right now.

ok, cool...i thought i read that it was a free silver membership somewhere...

well...gonna buy gears2, MK vs DC and a wireless adapter tomorrow after work...so if anyone wants to live it up...

edit:...damn, i can't decide between mk vs dc or left 4 dead...left 4 dead looks awesome, but i dont necessarily want 2 FPS games from the get-go...but then again, why not? i love MK and i love DC so thats why tahts appealing to me...it may be a last minute decision

That's kinda my problem right now. I want to get Vegas 2, yet I have so many awesome games that I rarely play as it is. It's not that I don't want to play them, but that I've been too busy to play them.

I don't know if it's a national thing or what but for 22.99 a month at my Blockbuster I can have 1 movie or game out at a time. Works out pretty good for me because I can stay current on movies and I rarely play a game for more than a week or so anyway. Then if I try out a game and figure out it's really good I can go buy it. So if you don't already have netflix and/or gamefly you might want to look into it.
