The Old XBOX Megathread

[MDK]

Yeah, online can be a bitch. Its like playing football back in school, 10 strikers and 1 goalie and everyone wants to walk the ball into the net. I'd love to get back into the pro clubs thing, when does everyone play?

[apsham]

Not that anyone cares but this weekend is Nuketown 24/7 and Double XP on Blops.

[Ruki]

Nuke Town 24/7 is awesome.

[apsham]

Oh. I see Fitzy has come to make a fool of me.

I've started playing Black Ops a lot more lately. The one complaint I have is that every new map they've released in the map packs have been awful. I cringe when I get one of them, yet I paid money for it so I don't want to uninstall it.

[Hellfire]

I've been playing LA Noire for about two days and I am incredibly bored already. I think that I should get Crysis 2 instead. Anyone play it before?

[apsham]

I actually really don't mind the map packs, at least it's not just rehases of older maps, etc.

My Xbox finally broke down after 4 years of trusty service, which means it's definitely outside of my warranty. I decided to just live without my Xbox and see if I would get bored and want to play again. After 3 months I've caved in and just bought a Slim 4gb version for 180 euro (and I will put my old 20gb HDD in as well), with summer time coming up and all

Tis awesome. But not worth a buy, more of a rental the multiplayer is nice but not enough to warrant $59.99 for an 8 hours single player expercience and 5-10 that you might get from multiplayer before getting bored.

I'm not sure if I've read that right, but the old style hard drives don't fit in the Slims. Unless you're busting them out of the housing.

Decided to relive some old games so i've ordered Assassins Creed 2 (I was going to get one again cause I didn't complete it but most people have told me to skip it cause 2 is miles better and just watch a video on youtube over the story), Saints Row 2 cause whats not to love about Saints Row 2 and Mass Effect 1 so I can go through Mass Effect 1 and 2 again.

I had to bust it out but it's worked fine for me for 9 months so far.

So would anyone here still happen to play Assassins Creed Brotherhood? Been playing it at my friends lately and having made it to level 32 I'm getting the itch to get it again . The only problem is it can suck trying to find a match. No idea if it is on Ubisoft's end or what, but I figured if enough people here play it it could be worth getting for getting some group play together to tide me over until the Fall.

[Dan]

Did you get the DLC? I had no problems finding a game once I had that.

[thatblindgeye]

I just bought the DLC last night after giving in and buying it. Had no idea that there was a third one, nor that you could turn the updates on or off from the multiplayer menu .

Loving Escort, though. Chest Capture I enjoy if I am going after the chests. Have yet to try Assassinate, though .

Didnt seem too bad as far as wait times go. Only problem now is it is impossible to create a group with a friend and have the two of us appear in the same game together.

I need to get the game back from a friend, he hooked me up with a bunch of PS3 games while I lend him it though, so I'm leaving it for a while, but once I have it back we need an EWB Brotherhood game for sure.

Cannot wait for Future Soldier, loved the GRAW games back in the day.

It'd be pretty nice to get a few people to play. Next time I hop on the Xbox Ill have to add you, for whenever you get the game back.

So Nicktoons Baseball is built on The Bigs engine and features Powdered Toast Man. I may have to buy it.

Child of Eden is amazing, I wish I had enough room at home for a Kinect.
