I know Xbox 360 is a mostly online-oriented system, but is it still worth buying for just single player games? You can still get a crap load of fun out the system on single player. There are fun single player games for sure, one of my favourites has already been mentioned by someone in Forza 2. I am sure someone can reply with more ideas for you.

I don't have a Gold Membership and don't really plan on getting one any time soon, and I have a ton of fun on my Xbox with single player.

Just a heads up, I loved Ghostbusters but I am getting bored with the story mode and Multiplayer isn't holding my interest anymore. So I have it up for sale on ebay. IF anyone wants to take a crack at bidding, check out my sig.
I'd just sell it to Gamestop. but they wanted to give me 25 for it.
Yeah, no.

That reminds me, when Forza 3 comes out we'll need to get a bunch of us together for some online races. I never played Forza 2 online in the brief time I owned it, but at least Forza 1 was a lot of fun on Live.

Hope online dosnt get messed up due to the fact that the game is being shipped on 2 disks.

I'm sure they'll find a way to work around any possible problems, the online component is a big selling point of the Forza games after all. Also, since I'm the Andrea de Cesaris of racing sims (for those of you not familiar with former F1 drivers, this means that I can be fast but somehow end up wrecking very, very often), I approve of the new rollover feature that makes for more spectacular crashes... and the rewinding, which already helped me a lot in GRID. ;D

Sure Ani. I'll be around tonight after work if you wanna murder me. Wouldn't say that. I'm brand new (I only learned thanks to the tutorial from the 360 game)

Yeah, but I'm Godz, the most lovable jobber since, uh.... ....well, maybe not so much lovable.... .....say, do you have SFIV? As for Magic, I know how to play, but the interface seems to constantly screw with me, the time limits on some things are annoying, and the AI is just the cheapest thing since Missy Hyatt.

I believe it went down in price like a week after it was released. I'm thinking it's at $40, but I'm not sure. I just went to bestbuy.com, walmart.com & gamestop.com, and its still 59.95 new. amazon has it for $51.99... not a great deal. I'd keep a look out at Target flyers if there's one near you. Most games end up for $40 for a week or so there.

On Prototype last night, I spent an hour throwing citizens at a wall to spell out my name with the blood spatter that they left. It was pretty fun. I also got 200/200 on Shinobi, which was even funner.

Okay, where is everyone for 1 vs. 100? Went the way of Left 4 Dead and GTA 4. No one plays it until they do something good to hide the fact that we've done just about everything we can on it.

Something special happen at 500 entries? Maximum number of entries allowed for the Sweepstakes. Also, I'm down to 31 needed to cap off.
