New-gen battles between X-Wings, Tie-fighters, and capital ships...

BRING IT ON!

Especially if it has online multiplayer!

It's intended in good fun, and the quote is priceless.

What would a dying 360 say? Would it sing "Daisy?"

Let's also have a t-shirt with the best stupid industry quotes on it:

"Rumble is last-gen"

"HDMI is not necessary"

"4D Gameplay"

"7% failure rate"

"You'll work more hours to get it"

And my all-time favorite, ...

Starting with Jack and Hillary.

Slowly.

With a DULL blade.

Coated with herpes.

BTW, this Libertarian loves your avatar. As I have said to many people, I may not like what someone has to say, but I'll fight like hell to protect their right to say it.

Didn't know that, thanks. That's good news.

For the love of God, don't let Jack Thompson or Hillary Clinton see that game...imagine the two of them teaming up on an anti-gaming crusade.

BTW, the Ninja Gaiden series is rated M for a reason. One can't slice through hordes of enemies with a razor-sharp blade and not expect flying limbs and sprays of blood.

Sales at my store have jumped since the price cut and the new warranty, and returns have lessened. Hopefully, the Falcon model solves the defect issues and people can enjoy the amazing array of games the system offers.

(Finished BioShock last night. Wow. Wow. WOW!)

As much as I am looking forward to this game, I am VERY disappointed by the lack of clan support. Random matches with various immature 12-year-old n00bs is NOT my idea of a good time.

Please fix this, Bungie, with a later update.

But at least me and four friends can co-op through the campaign mode.

I disagree with people from time to time, but I rarely leave negative feedback/lost bubbles.

You, Stella, have earned the loss of your rights to comment. And pretty quickly, I might add.

There's a difference between troll and fanboy...a fanboy is irrationally devoted to one game/console but can sometimes be reasonable and make valid points...whereas a troll is just someone who takes time out of their lives to see how many people they can p!ss off with a random, a...

Improved Madden...

Improved Tiger...

Now this...

Looks like EA isn't trying to "phone it in" this year.

2K8 is almost always better than NBA Live...we'll see what happens.

No notification--BB doesn't take names on pre-orders (sorry). Be sure to bring your receipt--that's your proof of purchase.

Most of all, have fun.

After I got used to it, I was able to play Pac-Man on the Atari for about three straight hours one afternoon...gave me a hand cramp and blisters, and my score was only about 7000...those one-point pellets and ten-point power pellets made a large score impossible. That was also the last time I played it, as that marathon session proved to me that it wasn't worth playing.

If you had fun with it, more power to you.

Ooh, Superman 64...I'd forgotten about that one. It was so bad that the awful Superman Returns game can be considered an improvement.

10. Super Mario Sunshine--Not bad, but since Mario sets the bar so high, this one does rank as a disappointment.

9. Psychonauts--The BEST game (almost) nobody played. It's now 360 compatible, folks: Find it, play it, love it.

8. The Getaway--Awful GTA clone. True Crime was only marginally better. Along those lines, Driv3r should also be on this list.

7. Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness: Wretched. This game is the primary reason Lara Croft needed ...

I agree that a strict policy is needed, but firing someone for accidentally tearing some tape? That seems a bit much. To me, there's a big difference between accidentally tearing tape and someone letting their friend or co-worker buy the game early.

When Halo 2 came out, there were about 20 BB employees nationwide fired for intentionally selling/buying the game early. We're taking many precautions to make sure that won't happen again.

@DREAM TENSION: Both this si...

That's a bit extreme. I know they want to avoid any possible fines/issues, and having a "zero-tolerance" policy makes it very black and white. But wow, that's pretty tough.

At Best Buy, they only ask that we not sell the game early and to make sure they're secure.

We can manhandle/drool on the games all we want. :) (Just kidding)

Actually, I agree with you both: I didn't say that BioShock is BETTER than HL2, just that I find it to be as addictive. HL2 and its Episodes are in a class by themselves.

Which is why HL: Orange Box is a must-have for me. Gravity gun FTW!

It deserves it. Maybe the most addictive game I've played since Half-Life 2.

That's a shame, actually. I got to play this on my friend's PS3 (same with Lair), and I have to say it's pretty awesome.

A demo would convince more people to give it a try. Offer a "training version" w/limited online play--one or two levels/areas--so people can try before they buy.

Hardly a definitive test, though the roughly 99% BC on the 60GB model falls in line with what I've heard many times online. But 57% on the 80GB seems a bit low, and this kind of test is hardly the way to prove it.

BTW, Nasim's assertion about the 360 only being 23% BC is wrong; last I heard, it was nearly (or above) 60%. (Anyone with proof, please post.)
