FEAR doesn't age that very well, and I find it incredibly dull. The enemy AI however is top notch.

Condemned: Criminal Origins, made by the creators of FEAR. Play that instead if you haven't yet!

Man, second time in the night Saints Row 2 has jammed up on us :|

It jammed up yesterday too. Anyone know what's wrong with it? :? I'm wondering if it's got a similar crashing bug to Fallout 3 when you've sunk a load of hours into it.

Uncharted.

I'm 89% through it according to my save data. And I... like it. Not OMG THIS IS BLOODY FANASTIC! Just... like it.

I somehow managed to fluke most of the puzzles. :lol: :fp:

When it's completed, I think I'm going to leave Uncharted 2 until later on. Don't think I'll enjoy playing them back to back just now.

I think I'm either going to start Black Ops or continue Halo Reach. Or possibly leaving the new games until I finish my second proper Mass Effect playthrough. Depends on my mood.

I completed it (again) the other day. I had one lock up during that time. Saints Row 1 used to crash the same way too, so I wonder if it's just an engine thing.

BUMP.

Can I use the Classic Controller to play Gamecube games on the Wii, or have I gotta use a Gamecube controller?

Seems that the classic controller might be more suited to FPSes, y'see...

You have to use a Cube pad. Also stop being rubbish.

I've come back home from Uni for a bit and after leaving my Xbox at home i decided to get GTA 3 on my Laptop/PC and i'm about a million years late to the party but i didn't realise how awesome Mods are! :oops: I got this mod that makes everything more realistic; the cars, the city, etc and it's breathed new life into the game - the guys behind it have done a brilliant job.

On a side note, i believe GTA III is 10 years old this October. :)

God, I remember at school looking up screenshots and information on it, eagerly anticipating it and trying to work out how my under-aged self could get hold of it. God I feel old. :cry:

Do you need Windows Media Centre to be able to stream to your PS3/360? If not, how do you do it?

EDIT: Infact, turns out I have it. But I still don't know how to set it up!

EDIT 2: Think i've sorted it out on the 360.

If only Zavvi knew how to price their Price Crash offer correctly they'd have had my twenty-ish pounds by now. But no! In a sale which informs customers of games costing under £10 they price Just Cause 2 closer to £13. No biggie though, found someone selling it on Amazon for £10 and ended up saving even more money by buying Smackdown v Raw 2010 from Play instead of Zavvi. Thank you, Zavvi 8-)

Anyone out there with a 360S also have problems with it recognising memory sticks? We've got three sticks with three profiles on, and it only recognises 2 sticks at a time :fp:

We could use three memory sticks on the old console, so the hell reason has this one got for not working? :x

FAO: Everyone in the 360S thread who was adamant that the removal of the 360 memory card slots was a good idea:

It only recognises two memory cards at a time. What happens if you've got more than one other friend?

The old 360 recognised 3 USB sticks. At least. This one doesn't :fp:

Anyone know why?

Final Fantasy 7 & 8 bores me now >: Great back in day, but they're dullfest these days for me. FF IX on other hand is best Final Fantasy game I've ever played and still is.
