Yes it does. My right side dragon punches have virtually 100% success rate now.

Left side I am still working on with this dpad. :)

Oooh good to hear it comes out in UK just in time for the new MK as well, so will defo pick it up.



 

Uh huh.. alright well I don't really agree with anything you said. Yes I own a PS3 only now and i'm missing out on Gears (it was my favorite game when I owned a 360) - but I don't see enough in the 360's forecast of games and other offerings to call it a "must own console of 2011."

I may sound like a huge Sony fanboy - but 2011 is shaping up to be the year of PS3 with all of the exclusives being pumped out. Sony is really only competing with themselves this year, yet they will be making money no matter what. Call me extremely happy right now to be a PS3 owner.

Fanboy out! *gets up off chair to smoke a joint*

Speaking of controllers.

I love the 360 controller, don't get me wrong - but I grew up holding a Dualshock basically so it just feels like home. I recently purchased a nice silicon grip and the trigger add-ons and it's great.

I don't know.. that was kinda random of me to bring that up but when a controller is done right, it's awesome.

Edit: the silicon grips I got off of ebay from Hong Kong for about $3 that included 2 grips and free shipping world wide. I'm in Canada so I think that was a wicked deal - as long as it doesn't contain lead :P jokes

My only reasons so far are Gears 3 and Elder Scrolls V. There are litterally no other 360 games in 2011 that interest me yet. Though these two games alone should tide me over for awhile.

Hopefully MS releases info on some sweet new games soon. And no, Kinect games do not count.



Will we be getting the 5 reasons to get a Wii?



If wasnt a 360 ownear since 2006.. One reason to get (Except all other 100 resons) for this year could be Cryteks Kingdoms.

If it can have a 11-release



What a shit and unimaginative list. Whoever wrote that deserves to be hanged by his/her ears.



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

IMO Kinect is not a reason to have an Xbox. The library of good games is.
