I'm really hoping Culdcept Saga turns out to be good. Have we heard anything on when it is due out in the US?

Also, if anyone needs a super-nerd to review a card battle game.... i adore the bloody thing.

There is a thread at GAF claiming that the new game is Dig Dug.

i am so frustrated with my 360

i sent it in because i couldnt play a game because it said every disc was dirty.. got it replaced and the refurb has the EXACT same problems, i laid into the customer support but seriously.. how hard is to make sure the system is more or less trouble free?? and refurbs should not have this problem, right?!?

IGN has a couple of pics of the HD-DVD drive.

http://gear.ign.com/articles/733/733328p1.html

The drive has 2 usb ports in the back, and a slot for the wireless adapter. If I do decide to pick this up, I'm glad they included that slot, since I didn't want to plug my wireless adapter to the front of the 360.

Grab that stuff this week. From what I read most of it will vanish from the marketplace shortly after.

Actually, we are supposed 2 Live Arcade games tomorrow. Dig Dug (most likely 400 points) and Totemball (free according to OXM) will be released according to the Xbox.com site.

Totemball uses the camera though. I'm excited to check it out!

Well that and a sequel or something very similar to Phantom Dust.

This has been my one wish for consoles since playing on the old XBox Live. I think Champion of Norroth has been the closest to the overall feel of Diablo series, but only in game play. I still do not know why MS has not ported Dungeon Siege, another close Diablo knowck off, to either Box.

I'm glad I decided NOT to get the Playstation 3. Blu-Ray & PS3 IMO are the losing next gens. Xbox 360 & HD-DVD all the way! This means I can get the HD-DVDs of Batman Begins & Superman Returns for the IME!

TNA, let's not attract angry discussions with statements like that in this thread. Just Xbox 360 here. Thanks!

I do think the PS3 is an excellent item to purchase for any Xbox 360 owner interested in HD-DVD. The profitability of an launch day Ebay sale would pay for the Xbox 360 HD-DVD add-on and a vast library of HD-DVD titles.

Thanks Flay.

TNA - we try to run a tight ship of adult gamers with good perspectives on games and consoles. Bashing isn't accepted, even when disguised as an opinion.

Although i would like to know what IME means? international monkey economics?


edit: Did Totemball not drop today? I ask because i hope to pick up the camera after work today and if it doesn't come with a packed in game and Totemball isn't till tomorrow it will make me a sad monkey. Which will of course affect IME.

It stands for In Movie Experience. It is an HD DVD exclusive extra that allows you to watch a running video commentary simultaneously with the film. But international monkey economics was close.

It's quite a bit more powerful than that.

That wasn't a monkey in Mallrats. Suzanne was a chimp.
