XBOX 360 thread - 4.0 (For The Bus)

Why 4.0? Cause I was too lazy to click back and see that it could be 3.4.

Oregon trail on XBLA would in fact rock my socks off.

Now that I have no valid reason to upgrade to the Elite, I have a question about the Datel XPort for the 360 for anyone who actually has one and has tested it out....

Currently the only supported method for putting any media on the harddrive is to place an audio CD in the 360's drive and rip it.

With the XPort, is it possible to directly copy .mp3, .wma, .jpg, and .wmv files to the harddrive and have them play on the 360?

Does this thread come with a transfer cable to move posts from the 3.3 thread or is that a separate sub-forum? And, is this thread backwards compatible?

But it's a Sticky, so it's going to be at the top, regardless. So, unless we have so many Stickies that this gets bumped to the next page, I don't know how you could miss it.

So...anyone else download the Marvel Ultimate Pack? I did. I love 'em! Venom is pretty badass as is Magneto. Sabretooth regains his health and is super quick. Hawkeye is damn near useless. They effed up Cyclops. His powers suck hard and he looks like a teenager. The Hulk is pretty well done too. Dr. Doom is cool but not that powerful.

Do you have me on ignore, or do you just not find me very interesting?

From the last page of the last 360 thread (3.something):

Have had a great time so far with Hulk and Venom.

(Note that these same characters will be included with the upcoming Marvel UA Gold Edition.)

So is this a thread for the original Xbox or the 360 version?

Oops sorry. No, I hadn't been paying attention to that last thread for the last couple days. Cool to see someone playing it.

I picked up an Elite on Sunday, and Gears of War. This game is amazing. I've finished the first chapter on it.

I also picked up Tomb Raider: Legends from Toys R' Us for $20, but I haven't played it yet.

I just have to wait for my copy of Dead Rising and the wireless internet connector to come in from Amazon.

I was looking at some games to check out, and I defiantly want to check out Condemned and Ghost Recon.

Has anyone played Earth Defense Force 2017? It looked interesting.

I didn't like GRAW(not my type of game) or know anything about Earth Defense Force, but you definitely have four solid other choices that you can't go wrong with.

The team I'm playing through with now is Magneto, Venom, Nightcrawler, and Cyclops. My personal favorite is Nightcrawler. I love using his bamf powers. And I would say that out the whole bunch, Cyclops is the most powerful. If you level up his basic optic blast high enough, he can take out a room full of enemies before the rest of the team can even get through the door. Right now I'm working on unlocking all of their costumes. I've unlocked all four for Nightcrawler and only the second one for each of the others. I've got Magneto in his classic costume, Venom in his Marvel Knights costume, Nightcrawler in his Age of Apocalypse costume, and Cyclops in his classic. I also noticed that now the characters icons change at the bottom of the screen when you change their costumes. I'm pretty sure the game didn't do that before.

It looks like 4 new GOW maps will be released this Thursday for 800 points or they will be free after September 3. I guess it's not too bad of a price and at least they will offer it for free in a few months. I would love to hold off but I am sure most DVDTalkers who play Gears will be picking these up so peer pressure will make me get them too.

Major Nelson


New Gears maps coming this Thursday
It’s the ‘Hidden Fronts’ map pack and it’s dropping this Thursday, May 3, at 9 a.m. GMT

The map pack is 800 points in which you’ll get four new multiplayer maps:

Bullet Marsh: In this Kryll-infested swamp, an old generator still powers the area lights. A few stray bullets could easily knock out the generator, leaving combatants to fend for themselves against the Kryll.

Garden: This overgrown and crumbling conservatory still has a working fertilization and pesticide system. This system can pose a serious hazard to anyone who ventures into the greenhouse without first venting the air.

Process: Teams must fight for control of this subterranean Imulsion processing plant, still active despite the cessation of the Pendulum wars.

Subway: Timgad's Central Subway station used to serve as a central hub for commuters. Now the tunnels are crawling with Locust.

You can grab the pack this Thursday for 800 points or wait until Sept. 3, 2007 when all four maps will be available for free.

Hrm, that Kryll one sounds sweet. I'm not sure if i will pick them up immediately though. With Catan dropping, the Halo beta, and Chromehounds taking over all my game time i may try to hold off until they are free. Especially if Shadowrun is any good in June.

I'll be the first to say that I have no problem with the 800 points to add a bit more variety to our GOW games. I'll surely have them on Thursday evening. so long as everyone else agrees to get them of course
