I've never played it before, but I think it looks fantastic. I'm a sucker for music games it seems - Everyday Shooter for example on the PS3 has been ruling my world.

Speaking of pissed, from ve3d.com:
The latest instalment in the Burnout series may not be out until 25th January, but Criterion's Alex Ward has already been on the defensive (and in fact the offensive). He took to the Internet to assure us Paradise is "way, way better" than Burnouts 2 and 3, and nothing like Test Drive Unlimited honest.

It's certainly taking the series in a new direction. There's a free-roaming environment to explore and a new focus on online multiplayer, for starters. Plus you can say goodbye to silly old menus. Functional they may be, but so Y2K7.

So will Criterion's bold decisions win the series legions of new fans or simply serve to piss off the old ones?
Alex Ward can suck my big fat hog. I've played Burnout, I love Burnout. Paradise, you are no Burnout.

Supposedly Yoda is only in the 360 version, and Vader in the PS3 version. I don't care for Soul Calibur or Star Wars that much, so i don't care, but its pretty lame to do.

I love them both and I'm hoping that they turn out to be two great tastes that taste great together.

Lame lame lame. I guess Lucasarts doesn't want you playing Vader vs. Yoda until they give us Teras Kasi 2.

All else being equal, I'd get the PS3 version to play Vader over the 360 version.

I hope that's just a rumor about Vader being exclusive to the PS3.

I have a question being a new 360 owner. My friend has had a 360 for a while, but he doesn't have Oblivion. I was going to bring it over, and introduce him by playing my game. However what's the easiest way to bring my save over? Take the hard drive? I really don't want to buy a memory card for this unless it's the only way. I also didn't want to disconnect my 360, but if that's the only other way, it will be done.

Also, is there a quick way to delete a bunch of saves? I have way too many cluttering my Oblivion (load times are pretty annoying on there) how do I delete a bunch quickly, without deleting my main game by accident.

I'm almost out of points and want to buy some more Rock Band DLC.

Can I use the 10% off Best Buy coupon I got in the mail on points cards or is that only good for actual games?

They're considered "accessories", so if it's for games & accessories, then you can. Remember, though that they charge sales tax on points cards, so you'll only save a few cents over just buying points in the marketplace.

They charge tax on the marketplace (at least from what I've heard).

Without buying a memory card to put your GamerTag on, you'll have to recover it on his console. Depending on how many achievements you have and how many things you've downloaded, that could take upwards of an hour. Even if you bring over your HDD, you'd still have to do this.

I don't know about Oblivion, but you can go to your System blade and look at your Oblivion data. Some games will show the timestamp or something similar on their saves and you can go from there and just delete old ones.

Well, it would make sense.
Vader = black
Yoda = green

The message says "plus sales tax, where applicable", but I've purchased points and checked my CC recepit -- there's no tax charged (at least in NV).

I've been charged tax on MS Points in Florida. I believe both in stores and through the Marketplace (although it has been a while since I have done this, so I might be wrong).
