PC/Console Games You're Looking Forward to

[Gryffindorian]

Is it true Mass Effect contains nudity and graphic sex? If it were for that reason alone, I would've gotten the game had I known it. In any case, I don't like shooter games or action-adventure RPGs all that much.

Hot alien on human lesbian sex!
Naw, it's more tasteful than the stuff on HBO and Battlestar Galactica anyway.

So i hired Mass Effect and Ack! Just went to turn on my 360! Nothing happened!

Turned off the power at the mains, turned it back on again, the whole thing started flashing red!!!

Gave it 5 minutes, turned it on and it appears now to be working fine. Im guessing though that what happened is not a good sign, and that my beloved 360 is not long for this world....

 

[firehawk12]

Did you get the three red lights? If it is... yeah... it's on its last legs.

 

[mr.peany]

^No all four started flashing. Im guessing thats even worse..

Oh no

 

[firehawk12]

No, that's good. All four means your video cable is loose.

 

[mr.peany]

Oh cool! Phew!
Mass effect.... liking, not loving it so far. But it's growing on me.

 

[firehawk12]

It's a slow start. Strangely, I think after the citadel, most people have decided whether or not they like the game.

 

[Hermiod]

No, that's good. All four means your video cable is loose.

Trust Microsoft to come up with a warning system where three red lights is worse than four.

 

[mr.peany]

^ I smell a PC vs MAC commercial coming up...

 

[firehawk12]

Hey, I'm not going to defend the 360... I've already had one die on me.

reminds me of the bit from Yahtzee review:

^ I smell a PC vs MAC commercial coming up...

No, but maybe a PC vs Mac one.

 

[mr.peany]

^You say potato....

In all seriousness, I have had my 360 for just under 2 years now, and have not had any significant problems other than what turned out to be through fault of my own. I'm pretty sure i have now jinxed it...

Also, any idea when the new Ghostbusters game is due for release? From what i've seen in the clips on youtube, it looks pretty cool.

 

[firehawk12]

I think it's an 09 game? But it could be Holiday 08.

Yes, I say potato, you say fltzlgrb. "Mac" is not an acronym, it's short for Macintosh.

I had a UK launch day machine that lasted until last Autumn. Then it went the day I bought Halo 3.

 

[mr.peany]

^ Were you able to get a new one? Or did Microsoft repair it?

 

[Hermiod]

^Microsoft repaired it under the extended RROD guarantee but it took forever.

I ended up buying a new one (Arcade, which I then attached my hard disk to) with the Falcon chipset while it was gone, so I have my old one as a spare.
