Same as me with cod today, trying to aim i iron sights with the rifle, sitting muttering fuck fuck fuck to myself trying to get it on target.

Might explain why there was a 6 foot space between me and everyone watching, eek:

perfect dark zero -
awesome, truely amazing prequel to perfect dark looks good plays very well best fps ive seen and played in 360, totally makes the fps on console vs pc come into question, only wish i could of played more.

pgr3-
looked amazing, car models are hot as shit, looked for the anisotropic filtering but i couldnt tell for sure, could see nice surface of road but it you wont see very high detail roads all the way in front even in real life until you get close up, game looked truely amazing though, only thing is it seemed too similar too pgr2 but maybe thats only on the surface.

amped 3-
i loved 1 & 2 and this is just as hot, maybe not pushing the hardware much but it looks so crisp and goodness and a game i could go on playing forever, though it does seem like it has a tony hawk underground story like feel too it.

condemned-
fooking amazinggg, looks so damn good, best lighting and shadows ive ever seen in a game, the best looking graphical wise title on 360 so far, crazy, spooky, gory damn cool and just ow looks amazing on the hdtv.

quake 4-
pretty poor, looked ok but not amazing, just looks like a pc port that suffers, and seems too be too much like doom 3 at the beginning for me to take an interest.

you can't play XBOX games on XBOX 360 unless you get the one with the harddrive right?

because that was only on the included demo there was no two player games, but over time the pods are used to market actual games which will have two player etc.

coop story mode on perfect dark zero was pretty damn good.

Multiplayer on Perfect Dark can suck a dick, I hate having to shot someone 20 times in the head to kill them.

Almost done with condemned, trying to get everything so I get the good ending. The game will creep you out, I run it with 5.1 digital surround on my 51" screen in the dark and it scares the shit out of my girlfriend, as well as myself (not gay)

As far as console fps shooters go, I was dead against them until Halo 2 came out. That came needs to be played with a controller. CoD 2 on the 360 needs getting used to, but I adjusted pretty quickly. I just wish the damn games would follow in Halo 2's footsteps and use a good multiplayer system based on buddy lists and rank. In CoD 2 you can barely find a server with enough slots to invite your friends in, and only 8 players? wtf
