Lost tears of Kain said:
wow how did this turn into cheap shots against the 360

enough with the trolling, ive had mine since launch and yet to have a problem

Then I guess your individual circumstances are the rule for everyone.

On Topic: The game sounds great, pity I'll never be able to play it.

 



Around the Network

People said the same thing about the Elites but turned out they RROD just as well.

I would wait a few months to see if RROD occurred in the newer ones which just came out recently.

I don't know if I'll buy one myself but the RROD is a definite deterrant to me even considering it.

a 3 year warrenty doesn't justify anything other than the purchase of a 360 by someone who got their's before this hardware issue came to light.

Also, maybe I don't want to have to replace my console every 1-3 years.

The extended warranty isn't a bandaid. It doesn't change the fact I'm still buying a broken piece of hardware or that it doesn't have full BC. People who act like the 3 year warrently justifies purchasing a 360 is just kidding themselves. It shouldn't break in the first place and the new hardware version comming out shouldn't be breaking like I'm hearing they are now.


Maybe you won't ever have to replace it every 1-3 years?  That thought ever cross your mind?  I like how you act like it's a requirement.  It's not like you have anything good to say about anything that isn't nintendo anyways.  I wouldn't take any of this too seriously from you.

You're right! Maybe it will break the fourth year and the warranty will be void by then leaving me shit out of luck!

I've said my piece, if people want to continue derailing this, don't blame me.

Elites if ive heard right do have it though it is less.

 

The elite pretty much just had more heat synch, these new models have alot more things to reduce it.



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B   

Proud supporter of all 3 console companys

Proud owner of 360wii and DS/psp              

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

If only the 360 wasn't so expensive and an unreliable piece of hardware I would get one to play games like this.
QFT my thinking exactly, nintendo are the only ones who know how to make console that dont break and last forever. I was shattered the day my DC broke, From that day I vowed never again to buy dodgy hardware.

 



-UBISOFT BOYCOTT!-

Nice review and not surprisingly you gave it the same review I gave it on the other mass effect review from legend. I am on my second play through as a good guy and man did I miss alot of stuff and this time i am taking wrex which I didn't last time. This has become my favorite game of all time.

this pretty much sums it up

anyone who gave this less then a 9 needs to get their eyes checked IMO

For anyone that has a PC I suggest The Witcher, which has a better story, graphics, and is deeper and longer than Mass Effect.

Sorry but The Witcher is RPGOTY
