Are you not able to start a Fragile Alliance game? Everytime I start to join I get kicked before I even get in the lobby. BOth player match and ranked. And hosting doesn't do jack either.

Sorry I can't contribute an answer to the actual issue you are having.

I'm hoping to finish the game tonight so I can put it back in the mail tomorrow to Gamefly. I want Mass Effect. I can see why this game received horrible reviews...

You've played with Martini before, so you know what it's like already.

Cause I don't have COD3 or COD4 - and even though I do have Gears I always have other shit that a I need to play. So take your Kleenex, wipe away the tears and man up.

Hey now, this is a Kane & Lynch thread! You are way off on the obscenities.

You should be using "fuck" as every other word.

At least every other word.

Have I mentioned how tired I am about "mature" games feeling the need to swear so often? I mean, I'm all for throwing the odd cuss in there for emphasis, but when a sentence contains fuck three times? I mean, it starts to sound like my office.

especially when they do put such affliction on the words. An otherwise normal sounding conversation will have a slight pause and then be like SHIT!! and I'm all like woah this game is mega hardcore. It's not very natural.

Ugh - I'm so done with the single player. The shit in Cuba gets tired REALLY quick and the giant squad you control suck. It's like the devs decided to end the game with a giant shootout, only to make the controls and level suck. Ugh.

I managed to get a couple sessions of Fragile Alliance in last night - and it's cool, but so limited. One awesome session I was in we all teamed up to rob the place, then when 3/4 of us entered the escape van, the 4th guy tossed a grenade under it - killing all three of us and taking ALL the cash. Funny as hell.

I gave up on the game at Cuba. My entire Cuban "support" squad was destroyed at the first gunfight. I just don't have enough invested in the story to even care what happens.

Exactly - I spent probably 30-45 minutes with that giant group of Cuban fighters and even when I take things super slow and think I'm working it out, I get killed and OD on adrenaline. I gave up on the single player at this point - and the broken multiplayer doesn't instill confidence either.

My review should be in this weekend after I hole myself in for a day of writing, but it depends on your version of cheap. Rent it - that's cheaper than anything and that way the only thing you've wasted is $5 plus some gas money.

Wait - nm. is $35 cheap enough for you? :-)

I wasn't sure anyone cared about this game, like the previews werent enough to scare you away from investing into the final product.
