Bolded games are what i was hoping would be updated. Unfortunately there' s no Conker, no Soul Calibur 2, no MGS2 and no Strangers Wrath so it' s not all good news

I' m super happy that DOA:U is now backwards compatible as i' ve wanted it updating from the very beginning!

It' s strange though that i haven' t seen anything about the update anywhere though. Why would they just sneak it out?!

I share your pain Majik! I love Conker. I never laughed so much while playing a game! Absolutely Hilarious. Ha ha Birdy the Scarecrow is just hilarious
Anyway if you have an N64 you can still enjoy it even though the N64 game does go for alot of money on Ebay.

You probably some a hold of information before the mass public did? I' m gussing...

Now, HERE THE HELL IS BROTHERS IS ARMS: EARNED IN BLOOD!?!?!?!

I got that game, then two weeks later I got my 360, and playing on the old Xbox controllers is too bulky and I miss those sholder buttons...

I don' t think it' s up yet...

It only appears to be showing on the Xbox.com' s UK portal too. The US side is updated as far as August.

And this is why I' m happy I still have my old box In the last leg of Stranger' s Wrath (wish this game had multiplayer or something...)

At least Psychonauts is backwards compatible now! Now, if only Singapore actually HAD a version of Psychonauts (I had to buy a PC one instead)...

And the answer is...no

There' s only so much begging will do. Although my dad did say he wouldn' t mind getting me a 360.

Only thing is the goddamn holiday bundles SUCK!

But I have connections, I know where to get a good deal

And don' t laugh that I still leech off my parents. In Singapore, that' s natural when you' re below 21

Doesn' t help that I can' t get a part-time job till my internship is finished [:' (]

Well how does this deal sound? A Premium 360 with Gears of War, Pro Evo 6, Pro Gothem 3 and Splinter Cell Double Agent for only 500 Euro!! Xtra Vision in Ireland are doing this deal. What a deal!

A Premium 360 with Gears of War,


Would you believe Singapore doesn' t get a GoW bundle WTF !

Our only choices, if you buy from major retail stores like Best Denki, are DOA4 or Fifa with Project Gotham Racing [:' (]

Saaaaad!


Internship? What are you doing?


Working at a local animation studio called Eggstory, but sending a ' resume' over to the local Lucasfilm and Lucasarts studios.

Tiz, you' re going to end up working on games for cellphones. The console industry is due for another crash and handheld gaming platforms/cellphones/other portable devices are the way forward!

Ofcourse, if you are moving up north in the near future there' s a testers position open at Sumo Digital. Long hours, low pay, requires basic reading & writing skills etc...

Quick note: I have zero faith in Lionhead Studios. Black & White was great but they' ve under-delivered by far with everything else.

Fable 2


Heh, why does Lionhead still bother with its ' greatest RPG ever' crap after Oblivion pretty much set a bar that only another Elder Scrolls can trump?

So you can get a family, and a kid (that doesn' t grow up after a certain point), which can be threatened by your enemies in Fable 2. Who cares? In Morrowind alone, I can get mods for that, AND mods that let me use all the weapons from FFVII AND be a silver-haired Jenova' s Child as a race!

If they want to differentiate Fable, they should give it...racing segments

Urm.. Well, my style is more fantasy inclined, so I could more than likely
have more to say on making Fable 2 a better game than let' s say, Outrun or
Virtua Tennis. Those are the kinda games that can' t really get much better and
have a lot going for them, Fable ideas NEED an overhaul!

Now that I think about it...out of all the Final Fansty merchandise...Squenix never thought of making chocolate Chocobo-shaped treats?

I saw a vial of ' Potion' in a game store for FFX-2 I think. It was a REAL DRINK, in a crystal bottle and was blue I asked the guy how' d it taste and he said prolly kinda sweet

Actually I think Molyneux just over-delivers when he speaks. Lionhead still makes awesome games. Just Molyneux' s ideas are way too innovative, at least now-a-days for gaming.

I think Fable is a great game! I' m really looking forward to the second one. Even though they' re both RPGs, Fable and Oblivion are totally different, and each holds something special. Fable was more fun to me, and I really liked the visual style. I would hate if every rpg out there tried to be Oblivion. We need variety in art styles, as well as gameplay for the genre to remain fresh (unlike the umpteenth clone of the Final Fantasy series).

Of course:

Mass Effect > ALL
