Like I said in the XBox Mega Thread, the demo was really fun. This won't be the best or one of the best Star Wars games like some were hyping it up to be, but it's still good and a must play for any Star Wars fan. I liked bending the steel support beams into the TIE Fighter's flight path.

Force Unleashed feels like it's going to be a good Star Wars game. I had fun playing the demo, especially when I used the force to toss a Tie Fighter into some Stormtroopers.

ST:FU comes out September 16th, Fallout 3 comes out October 28th, and EndWar has no official release date but it's rumored to come out in either October or November.

October 14th.

And on top of that, it's coming a week after Fable II and a week before Gears 2. This Fall is a bigger clusterfuck then last years. The 9 games I listed in the Games Hit List thread are coming out between October 14th and November 11th.

Nothing until the fall. Brothers in Arms comes out at the end of September, Far Cry 2 comes out at the end of October, and the next Call of Duty comes out in November.

It's like the Fable 2 Pup Games. The original Banjo-Kazooie will be released on the Marketplace this fall, probably for 800 points, but if you pre-order, you'll get a download card from wherever you pre-ordered with a code to download the game for free.

If you preorder Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, you'll be able to download the original N64 game for free. The game's release date is November 14 and will be $40. It looks like Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise will be $40 also. I have no fucking clue what went wrong.

For those looking forward to Call of Duty: World at War, a 10 minute preview can be found here: http://gamevideos.1up.com/ - look for "1UP Show: Call of Duty: WaW Exclusive Preview" For those looking forward to Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, a demo comes out August 21st for both the 360 and PS3. It was announced on GTTV last night.

Exactly. Both Braid and Castle Crashers are brand new games that have been in development for more than a few years. The fact is, if you want better quality games on XBLA, they're going to cost more.

The game's hardly a Mario/Donkey Kong clone. It's a puzzle game first, platformer second. Only a few of the puzzle pieces require platforming skills, the rest require you to think outside the box.

Braid is the best game on XBLA and possibly the best game of 2008. I took me about 5 hours to collect all the puzzle pieces. I absolutely love the last level and the ending.

An exploit has already been found in the Fortune's Tower game. Bet the lowest amount possible, then hit A to deal, then hit LB afterward to raise your bet to the max. By doing so, the game acts like you're betting the max, thus you reap the rewards, and if you lose, you only lose your minimum bet.

PCF made Painkiller and worked on Gears of War for the PC

Onslaught56 Currently playing: Nothing Have preordered: Resistance 2 & Little Big Planet So who's buying Quest for Booty next week? I love Ratchet & Clank and the early word is that Q4B has a heavier emphasis on platforming then TOD, so I'm buying.

New Fable 2 Article showcasing some new environments. A video is included.

The preorder codes aren't working yet. Hopefully MS fixes the problem soon. It works now. I just downloaded the games, going to check it out later.

Just sent the PM. (Y)

Because of a Gamestop screw up, I have two codes for the Pup Games. Whoever wants it, just post here.

I never played the first Fable because I didn't get into RPGs until two years ago, but now that I love them, I want Fable 2 bad. As far as the hype concerns, Molyneux's hype has only been directed towards things that he could show in game, so I'm not too worried.

Far Cry 2 Saint's Row 2 Fallout 3 Fable 2 Dead Space Little Big Planet Left 4 Dead Gears 2 Resistance 2 The chances for a delay are slim to none now. The game was content complete at E3, the Pup Games are launching next week, and Lionhead announced the release date, October 21, today.

lololololol, no. As expected, those prices are wrong.

It was no mistake, Activision confirmed that Ghostbusters has been dropped, for right now. It's future is a little uncertain, but I can almost guarantee you that the game will be released, maybe not this year, maybe not by Activision, but it will be released. It'd be too costly to cancel it now.
