Yeah my plan was to get a gamefly account but after playing the Skate3 demo and knowing how much I liked the first one I figured that would be a good game to own. I haven't heard anything bad about Red Dead except some glitches and that the game was a long play. So I guess those will keep me busy along with other random demos for a while and I won't need to sign up just yet.
I just don't want my free trial for xbox gold to end. I'm not sure if I want to pay for it. It's only $50 a year but still...
I let my xbl gold account lapse for a few months and it actually hurt my desire to even turn on the console. There's just something about being connected no matter what I'm doing.
One downside of gamefly is that I STILL don't have Red Dead. The availability for big titles kinda sucks, hence why I'm playing through Dante's Inferno.
the $50 is completely worth it when you have netflix. I rarely play games on the network, but it's nice knowing it's there. It's definitely worth the $50.Quote:

About half done with skate 3 and still really enjoying it.
Red Dead I've put maybe 2 or 3 hrs into it tops. Haven't had much time to devote to that.
A friend let me borrow Gears of War 2 and so I'm working through that now. About an hour in.
Just finished Alan Wake for the 360. Great game, but definitely a Gamefly rental. I think I put under 8 hours into it.
I got to Mexico in Red Dead and got bored with it.
Now I have nothing to play, i sent them both back and the only thing on my que is Toy Story 3 which I just wanted for the kids.
Dang FL, I was looking through your games you've played an you sure love the lego series. I dug the Star Wars one but couldnt get into the others, and my kids would rather play Geometry Wars, Wii Fit, or Donkey Konga.
I played a little bit of the Lego star wars. Kinda hard to classify it as a game no? More like a weird cartoon that you have to hit the play button constantly in order to watch.
Yeah. It's part of the regular routine for my son and I to play one Lego game or another before bed. There are surprisingly few game options of quality for his age group.Quote:

Toy Story 3 is his current favorite.
A little. There are bosses, puzzles to solve, characters, levels, weapons, etc. to save up for and unlock.Quote:

Finally got an HDMI cable for my xbox. A lot bigger difference then I thought it would be.
^ ^ ^
Bigger difference as in what? What were you using before? In most cases, going from composite to HDMI really doesn't improve anything at all (especially over short distances.) The one positive I've always found is that since everything is over one cable (sound + video) it's a much cleaner look, but I've never personally seen a quality difference.
Isn't composite limited to SD/480i? If so I'd think there'd be a huge difference if you're going to HD/720p+, no? Or do you mean component cable?
Yeah I was using the supplied composite cable before(not component). The picture just looks cleaner and the colors much more rich and saturated with the HDMI cable.
im so close to 100% in rdr, pretty excited
Great, by the time I get the fk'ing game no one will want to play it. Not that any of you are up at my gaming hour (7:30 am on weekends)
if you get it and manage to find some later in the day hours to play i'm always downQuote:

Yes - it was early. I meant component. If wannabe went from one yellow RCA plug to an HDMI it should have been like going from Lucille Ball to Avatar. I was talking component vs. HDMI. In that case, I've never noticed a visual difference.Quote:
