The Old XBOX Megathread

Wireless remotes are such a pain in the ass. I kinda wish wired remotes were still the standard.

[Stryker77]

IDK how, but I always manage to find a way to lose my controller. If they were wired then I wouldn't have that problem.

[Cactus Drags]

I much prefer wireless pads myself. No cables getting tangled, no consoles getting dragged to the floor by clumsy friends or boisterous dogs, other than having to charge them, I don't see any advantage to wired pads at all. I'm not dumb enough to lose a large chunk of plastic.

[Toe]

Wireless are better when they have internal rechargeable batteries.

[Ruki]

Man, Ghostbusters is a lot of fun!

[Toe]

I still want to try the multiplayer. I beat the game on Experienced and now I am going to try the hardest difficulty.

[Ruki]

I died trying to kill the Opera singers/gargoyles , and I left it there for the night.

[LL!]

The game gets pretty ridiculous as it goes on. I started playing it on Professional (Expert) and have to rely on reviving the others consistently. However, it's pretty enjoyable.

[Toe]

I like wrangling the gargoyles and slamming them into the ground.

[wolves]

I honestly don't know if I'm going to end up playing Ghostbusters a second time through on the hardest difficulty. I mean it's a short game so it's do-able but some parts were pretty frustrating and kind of cheap like the kamikaze angels at the end. I might try some online though but I'm grabbing Fight Night Round 4 tonight and that's going to take up some time.

[Toe]

The kamikaze angels were the only thing I had trouble with. I tried to beat that part about 10 times before quitting, then came back the next day and beat it first try.

[Ruki]

Woo! Hitman 5 next year!

[alldaws1]

Another Hitman game? Awesome.

[Kaney]

Where did you hear about this?

[King Ellis]

Oddly enough, I was looking on Play.com yesterday to see how much a copy of Blood Money would be and they have a page up for Hitman 5. They have it down as November 2011, not that that is concrete or anything.

[Maxx]

What material would you say it is made out of then, if not concrete?

[King Ellis]

Metal.

Everything is made from metal.

[Maxx]

Rust proofing?

Twentieth Century Fox has "Hitman 2" in its crosshairs.

Studio has hired screenwriter Kyle Ward to write a script for the movie that catches title character, Agent 47, at a low point. He must build himself back up psychologically and physically to reclaim his mantle as the world's most feared assassin.

The film will contain story elements from "Hitman 5," the upcoming Eidos vidgame that will be released in late 2010.

Adrian Askarieh is producing with Chuck Gordon, with Daniel Alter executive producer.

Ward got the job after scripting "Kane and Lynch," the Lionsgate drama that has Bruce Willis attached to star and Simon Crane to direct. That picture, also produced by Askarieh and Alter, is expected to begin production by year's end. Ward also scripted Universal's "Fiasco Heights," which has Michael Bay attached to produce.

The original "Hitman" starred Timothy Olyphant and grossed $100 million on a $30 million budget.

I hope it's a good thing that the film will be taking after the game...and not that the game will take after the movie >_>

[Hellfire]

Another Hitman movie? Kane and Lynch Movie? Hitman 5? That my friends, is awesome all around.
