XBOX 360 Thread. First page FAQ coming on the 1st of never

You’re the first person I’ve run into that is in anyway interested in that game. Looks like run of the mill garbage to me.

The wait for Lost Planet 2 is too fucking long. Imma be trading in a ton of games closer to the release of it cause I know I won’t be playing anything else other than LP2 for months like I did with LP Colonies.

I don’t know man, the fact that the economy is bullet based is pretty cool. You really have to make every bullet count and the fact that there is no HUD is interesting as well.

Microsoft straight up SERVES people on their complaint forum. Sometimes this shit is funny as hell.

man Soulcaster is a sweet ass game, i cant put the damn thing down 3 bucks well spent

cheh, I’m still sittin’ pretty with the cool 20000 gamerscore. It’s almost a shame I’ll have to mess it up by inevitably getting more achievements at some point during my usual gaming time this weekend.

*still not entirely sure about Scrap Metal…but I’m starting to lean towards a buy… I’m thinking an 800 point price tag would’ve been more appropriate though.

I’m gonna revive the thread for it once Capcom gets people to preview the game some more or actually release some concrete info. The Kill Big trailer showed the customization that’s possible (Hear that Million?) and it’s based on head, torso, legs, and backpack. And you can mix and match gender parts (Hear that Taygeta?). But I’ve preordered both the game and the strategy guide for it. I can’t wait to play with you all.

They need to ban anyone under the age of 18 who plays COD.

Any further word on that Slim 360? Can’t find anything on the internet(s) other than some stuff on GFAQS. =(
Pretty interested in the idea.

I don’t get how a slim console is appealing at all especially a slim 360, as if it didn’t have enough overheating problems. Slim ps2’s were phail let that be a lesson to anyone purchasing a slim 360.

They were? My PSTwo (slim model) from December '04 must have missed the memo. I’ll let it know when I finish watching Godfather Part II tonight on it tonight in my bedroom. :stuck_out_tongue:

I mean, you do understand that they don’t just cram all of the same hardware into a smaller box and just leave less empty space for airflow, right?

It takes a complete redesign of the hardware to create a slimmer system with the same functionality.

Also, I believe what likely sparked the talks of a Slim 360 is MS has been recently looking to hire a motherboard engineer for their Xbox division. (Source: http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=7339)

Same here. I’ve treated my slim ps2 like shit and it still runs like a champ. I say bring on the slim360.

someday they’ll find a way to implement this…and I will be happy.

cheh,

I just don’t get people who love for a game to be damn near impossible before they’re having “fun”. There I was, playing Realism Expert on Left 4 Dead 2 with some other folks + my infamously annoying pal. Naturally, we’re dying over and over and over a billion times…we turned the difficulty down by switching Realism mode off just to get through with the damn Parish campaign, and this fool leaves to play something else. Whaaa? Sheeit, I figured that would’ve been cool to help him get that particular campaign finished, but nooooo…I guess he preferred it when we were dying over and over again before ever reaching the halfway point. I guess that is “fun” for some people. On a sidenote—this is why that dude RARELY even beats a game anyway…because he can never swallow his pride and turn a difficulty setting down. For example…if you could start Ninja Gaiden 2 on Master Ninja mode…yeah, this fool would’ve started on that…and never make it beyond the first or second fight on stage 1…eventually giving up and moving on to another game he won’t beat.

For those unfamiliar with the game…here’s the breakdown with the ridiculous(*yet still entertaining…not absolute asshole bullshit like a certain popular action game staring a chump ass supposedly badass superninja…yeah, fuck you again, NG2. Fuck you forever.) difficulty

-of course, all infected types do way more damage to you. They also have way more health.
-that wonderful little annoyance known as “friendly fire” is turned up to the MAX. You can seriously kill/down your buddies with just one careless short burst of fire.
-Some of the infecteds have some body armor on in the Parish, Livin’ like they Bulletproof for real…so it will take a few years to kill those guys…not that easy to focus on killing them efficiently when there’s ohhhh 1000000000000000000000000000000000000 other infected zombies rushing the team every 3 seconds.
-Remember that low health = decreased mobility…sort of like real life. An injured survivor may as well just hang it up, he’s done. You won’t get far when there’s 3 or 4 Special infected guys in the immediate area + the 10000000000000000000000000000 common infecteds rushing. Also remember that just 1 Special Infected dude is enough to completely immobilize you within 1 or 2 seconds.
-No place is truly safe since they can come from anywhere, and they can climb over things and do whatever is necessary to make it to your location in no time. Even with your back to a wall…what if they appear from behind, dropping down from the top of the wall? Yeah, you’re fucked there too.

Still, this game is loaded with so many epic situations it’s just insane. I played Survival for the first time today, actually…and it’s even crazier than the regular campaign… Man, they need to hurry up with “The Passing”. I still like the old survivors better than the new people.

18? You sir, are too kind. I’d say 21. lol.

Million. Parish on Realism? Well you have the right idea. There’s a reason why people handle Realism on Dead Center(Chapter 3 is bullshit), Swamp Fever(fianle can be bullshit). Instead of Hard Rain(Chapter 2 is bullshit, finale tank when the boat arrives can lead to last minute bullshit) or Dark Carnival(Chapter 1 can go wrong, Chapter 3 can easily go wrong, Chapter 4’s final crescendo IS ABSOLUTE bullshit, finale is easy until the chopper arrives)which have to be the hardest maps to do even Expert on

The Parish isn’t as stupid as long as you communicate and call out Riot zombies as if they are SI so someone can shoot them in the back. An injured survivor is always at the mercy and willingness of his/her teammates. And Parish has some safe spots, you just have to hold them down to keep them safe…Fucking Spitter, Charger, Jockey, and Hunter meleeing bots. Charger KNOWS his Melee attack is broke, so he abuses that shit LOL.

Yeah I’m looking forward to The Passing. Has it been stated whether or not the new level for L4D will be on the xbox as well?

Funny you mention this story Million. Me and my boy M121 on srk were playing Nightmare in Doom. That’s also some “Wtf-OhEmGee-Bullshit-Motherfrakers!” but in a good way. You didn’t even want to find the secret shit in the level because you’d just end up getting mauled after picking up whatever was there. Like watching enemies respawn right before you eyes is so fucked up. We made it to stage 1-3 and literally watch our dead bodies pile up by the doorway where we stop the level. When we first got going we had two pinkies, one invisible, to deal with. Our strategy was simple, PUSH. We had to always hold down run and push our way through the hordes of respawning bad guys to keep going. The hard part was dealing with grabbing a Key because once you were dead the key was gone.

Then went to go play Marathon on the hardest difficulty and were bored out of our minds.

Doom is still the best! Numba One!

What the new L4D1 campaign? Don’t see why it wouldn’t. L4D1 is still pretty popular on 360. Might even see L4D get another update, cause 360 version is missing Team Versus on L4D1, compared to its PC counterpart.

Well it explains how the original four end up down South. If you get on Live and watch the OXM preview of The Passing it gets mentioned.

ohhh it would be great if soundpacks were do-able on console versions… I know it’s “old” news to PC gamers, but I’m finding some hilarious, classic material out there…example: [media=youtube]Ou9Jh8NUUA0 and here’s Billy Mays(remix) as Tank http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emyD2Yc2MS8&feature=related Someone also gave Hunter some Michael Jackson soundbytes, which was more entertaining than I thought it would be. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlibxcwYihw&feature=related[/media] heh, he now gets his own Thriller music breakdown for when the pounce is successful.

Well, the custom soundtrack option comes close though…and that’s why I love it so much. Once again I say… Bloody Palace mode from DMC4 with either Let’s Dance or Welcome to the Jungle = Indisputable Awesomeness.

I am kind of excited for Super even though it is basically the same as SF4. I want to play Dudley and beat up people with class and play that new evil chick.

Yeah dude, this is like my most anticipated game right now, and probably the first I will play with SRKers. 8v8 multiplayer sounds badass. I just hope enough people are getting it on PS3 cause most of my friends are already getting it on that. Really don’t want to have to buy two copies =(
