Best Weekend EVER! (for me)
DarkAnubisPwnr | 6:54 PM on 08.18.2008 8 comments


I finally got a fucking 360! ='D yeah i know "a little late to the game" but whatever. just randomly my wife was like "lets go get you a 360" and i was like hell yes (shes awesome, i lerv her). So i go get one from best buy and yes totally got the warranty. And figured i might as well trade in my old console. So i head on over the my local gamestop with my console a wireless controller or two and two games, i end up with 80 bucks of store credit. Since my broke this makes me very happy, i figured i could do with 2 games and i could use the rest to grab aXBL gold membership. So i went with CoD 4 and orange box. and 3 months of xbl and i only payed 6 bucks. so i spent all weekend playing on it, its so great! but im all paranoid about it like i will stop after a while for fear of overheating it, i touch it every time i turn it off to determine how far i pushed it. Im excited cause i have yet even to delve into the XBLA portion, first game up for buy is Braid. Then G wars 2 and ikaruga. Awesome! let me know of any suggestions of must buys.

Grats! Definitely check out Bioshock and Crackdown, both are now $30 I believe. I enjoyed Beautiful Katamari as well, it was $20 new although you'll be spending another $10 to get the DLC levels. Ignore the presents/cousins packs.

On XBLA, some of my favorite games are E4, Puzzle Quest, Pac-Man: Championship Edition, Uno, and Catan. Check out the trials and see if any of them are for you. I'm totally loving Bionic Commando: Rearmed, although I'm not very far in it. I just downloaded Bomberman Live as well, and enjoying it as well.

Also, my GT is MrMxyzptlk123 if you want to give me an add.

Seeing as how you just got a new 360, you'll most likely have the newest revision of the motherboard with a cooler running GPU and overall lower inside system temp.
Play as much as you want! Even if it does red ring, you'll get it replaced.

I thought Mass Effect rocked, Gears of War is an amazing game, GTA4 is at least worth a rent, Ninja Gaiden 2 has great additions over the first if that's your thing, Assassin's Creed is breathtakingly gorgeous/huge and is worth playing once (turn UI off)...

Grats on the new system! Most people have their XBL tags on their profiles (I do) so you should be able to start your friends list pretty easily.

congrats man!

i remember my first weekend with the 360... and GoW... if you like FPS, be sure to get that, its dirt cheap by now and the second one will be coming out by the end of the year :-)

Dead Rising is the absolute BEST game on the 360. Surely its less than twenty dollars.

Also you can download demos of games for FREE.
