    Yeah... I did see your name flash up.

    My 12 year old nephew was staying for the weekend so I have spent a disproportionate amount of time on the 360 (Halo 3, DOA4 and Burnout Paradise).

    It's not perfect, but it's rollicking good fun.

    If you look about the internets a bit, there's a torrent of warhammer 40k with ALL the expansions that's been unofficially ciderized.

    Runs nice.

    ohhhhhhh yer!

    i grabbed the dlc for the original kotor and it was great - can't wait to see what bioware do with this

    my only gripe is that once you get past a certain point in the game (after Ilos), there's no going back (to see a new downloadable planet for instance) so you have to have a save game waiting for it or you're stuffed

    on a side note - after fox news hyping the great v on v action for me (i think that's what they were doing), i was a bit disappointed to see that it was a (hot and blue) lesbian builders bum that was the cause of the whole sex-box thing

    not really - it just really made me laugh

    I play a bit of WoW, not as often as I used too, now I'm lucky enough to log on once a week, just busy I suppose. When work is slow I play
    this


    Its pretty awesome, just the kind of thing I like actually. I loved the old turn based strategy and rpg games via a compaq 486 ;)
    I wish they came out with an awesome updated version of xcom! That was the best game ever. Pox costs real money to play though and I think I've probably sunk maybe 300$ into it. but I think its worth it for how much I enjoy it. i've got guitar hero for the PS2 plus a load of games that I have barely even put in the machine. I've got the first 3 GTA games that I have yet to really play. I'm sure if I never bought a game for the next 5 yrs I'd be ok.

    I really want to try that WH40K that Jussi was working on, from the looks of it I could really get into it in a bad way.

    wh40k squad command

    yeh the graphics look amazing but there's some criticisms over the lack of camera control (or building transparency) and lack of grid based movement which apparently makes lining up shots etc quite tricky - i'll prolly pick it up in the states in april so i'll let you know then if it's good or great

    there's a couple of really old games out there in the same universe if you like those:
    there's an epic game called final liberation and a 40k game called chaos gate which is more like the combat in xcom
    both are good but seem to have trouble running on xp - i don't know if there's an update to let you play on the more recent os's (Biff?)

    i can't wait to get front mission for my ds - i loved fm3 on the playstation one but never finished it and then went to xbox because of halo so i never had the option of ps2's backwards compatibility

    also looking forward to phantom hourglass (ds)
