The Shrine

If you're an X-Box Gold Member.

Silver/PSN demo next Monday I believe.

I have. Who wants to play?

When I get home tonight I'll grab it and give ya a shout. I'm technically a Gold member right now (my current 1 month card ends on Feb 1) so I should be able to grab it right away

I'll probably be playing Fallout today so shoot me a message if you want to do RE.

You came on after 11 EST again? I got on about 10pm or so and was on for a bit but didn't see ya

By today, I meant TODAY... Tuesday. Fallout DLC is out today.

Yes, I know. I was referring to last night.....

And I'm referring to monkeys! Give me your pants!

And who cares about this obscure "Fallout" game anyways? RE5 demo is out, you should be thinking of nothing else. And when you want to take a break from playing the RE5 demo we'll do some Left 4 Dead.

feel free to give us your impressions as to perhaps encourage others to buy it. Myself for example.

It's a solid "meh" from me, so far at least.

I haven't done much of it yet. Got to the part where you make a squad and pick your weapon set. Had to stop playing to bake muffins.

Exact spot I stopped at...everything before that was pretty "meh". I think I missed some intel as well (found 2), hope I can go back.

There's no way there are ten of those cases in the first section. My OCD (well, not literal) kicked in after I got the first one and I think I only found three or four.

I regret starting this with my shitty, shitty Neutral character. Dumped a whole bunch of points into melee combat only to realize it's a worthless stat, and as a result my small guns, big guns, and energy weapons skills are trash.

The RE5 demo is OK. Nothing spectacular. And man, it's freakin' IRRITATING that you can't move and shoot

I hear lots of complaints about that, but in reality, moving and shooting is very hard. Moving, shooting and aiming doesn't really happen.

Yeah, yeah, it's a videogame, not reality. It just strikes me how people take it for granted.

In a post-Gears world, these controls are unacceptable.

sadly, i don't do much on my xbox 360 anymore except dev work.

i might buy fight night again though. it seems i'm one of those gamers that plays about two games a year...putting 500 hours into each...

screw that....in a post Dead Space......gotta compare it to another similar genre'd game.....controlls fantastically and does greathorror. I really wish they could learn a lesson from that one on how third person fps style controlls can work wonderfully

The Resident Evil series does that shit intentionally to build tension, it's fucking retarded, but it's also why things walk and creep toward you slowly and give you a second to react even if they're well within swiping distance of you.
