I finished Black Ops and I think it was pretty good. It has been bashed as an on rails shooter with nothing new to offer. Well that is very true, but the graphics were incredible and I liked the story for what it was. The game play was as they all are in COD games but I have to say I enjoyed it very much. Everyone knows that I'm no completest, and getting me into MP is next to impossible. So just on the Campaign alone I'm saying it was pretty good. The Zombie mode was funny as hell for about all of 3 mins, then back to the Blockbuster it went. lol. It's a rent for sure as it's length is short as hell. I guess MP'er would say that it has more value than that, so, for what …

So Jason was so excited for this game until he played the trial. I was even going to review it, but this game sucks so bad it doesn't deserve a review. I played it after him for the remainder of the round he joined and I couldn't take it anymore. Anybody else play this piece of crap? Oh and then I think what irked me even more was the guys that were playing it were so in to it that they were acting like they were playing SOCOM. They were shouting out coordinates and deciding where to go. I was like, "did I just walk into an *** backwards time warp or something?". Seriously....this game is something that should have released years upon years ago.

Never going to even TRY it. LoL Hardest Difficulty (Zealot Mode). NO NewGame+ carryover weapons/armor/money. NO Checkpoints. You can only save your game THREE TIMES the whole game. Period! NO THANK YOU! I struggled with some sections playing Normal Mode. No way in heck I'm even going to attempt Hardcore.

I have known about this for a short bit. Some of you probably already know this but I did not see a posting yet so I decided to make one. I played it on PC but this could be fun on console as well. I for one am looking forward to it! Laying on my couch, slaying monsters, collecting loot! Min maxing my gear. Sounds like a blast. Wish it had co-op but for $10 - $15 bucks you can't beat it. Fun Game. Anyone else looking forward to it? I love diablo type games. Joystiq article

There seems to be a new reporting feature in black ops that lets you report both profanity and inappropriate gamercard images. I don't remember seeing this before, and i did look for something like this about a week ago. Today was the first time i ran into it, but does anyone know when it was implemented?

Thanks to the magic that is GameFly, I just received notice that Halo: Reach is currently en route to the Casa de Capt & KayJKay. My question is, how are the multi-player aspects because playing solo a lot of times really isn't all that fun for me.

All of the Borderlands DLC's are now 400MS. For Red Dead, it's Legends and Killers, Liars and Cheats and Undead Nightmare for 400MS each. The Undead Nightmare Collection is 1000MS. There's also some DLC for GTA IV, Mafia 2 and Bioshock. Games on Demand sales as well, with games like Midnight Club, Max Payne and San Andreas.

We need a few rounds of Cars vs Bike, some golf cart racing, A Team, or maybe even some GTA Olympics. Let's aim for next weekend. We'll decide on Friday or Saturday, after a few of you show interest.

Does anybody know if the Epic Battle achievement is glitched? I tried this on several occasions....I did what I found on forums and nothing. Pick one song, played with a second player (Granite), kept hitting restart, played 10 times, and then when it wouldn't unlock we kept going, but nothing. It's starting to irk the crap out of me now.

Not much is still known about the sega dreamcast collection, but judging by the cover there's at least four games on it......

Didn't want to link to GameInformer, but I love Todd Howard and Bethesda too much to let my personal feelings interfere. Enjoy

So, I'm looking into getting a new Xbox 360, especially with taxes rolling in soon...I was wondering if you guys had any advice on which one to get. The best deal for me looks to be the Slim 250 GB for around $300...I was wondering if any of you who have the slim model would vote for or against it. Otherwise, I could get a refurbished or used Elite for a good price most likely. Also, I'm probably going to only get one game at first, looking for a good one with a lot of replay value, and hopefully one that a lot of you here have. What would you suggest? Halo Reach? Black Ops? Thanks a lot for any input!

Just minor changes, but I thought I would post this as a heads up if you log onto your Xbox 360 and see an update. Details on Major Nelson's Blog. I really like the new Gamercards they have for Xbox.com, they look a lot better:

I found this on Youtube. Obviously this contains spoilers, so watch at your own risk :
