That's 'cause you play like a bazillion hours a week. Tongue

it gets old fast.

physics are good... the tracks blow. and the way the chop up tracks and make you race on sections here and there gets real old real fast. I put it down the first day i played it.

Has anyone had problems logging into XBOX Live today?? I'm trying to figure out whether it's XBL or our router connection here. We can join some games, but some games we can't (more than we can). I also can't listen to voice messages on XBL.

I had problems earlier last week. I actually had to call support because I was having issues recovering my gamertag and was met with a recorded message about XBL connection issues.

I'm guessing it's a pretty sweet game when you're drinking with friends but I just don't get it otherwise. I've never been one for the music beat and/or dancing type games. Basically any game that's based on rhytms just gets old real quick.

I played Forza2 before I left and it was pretty cool. I intended to just play a few races but ended up playing for a full 2 hours. I'm sure it'll get old but the depth and mechanics of it all are nice.

It got old real quick for me. Fun game though. Definitely give GH3 a try at Best Buy or something if you haven't played it yet, it's pretty fun Wink

couldnt someone have thought to look at the sales reports and make sure that the servers could at least handle that amount?

They shouldnt get sued, they should get a fucking medal.

The message should have been "go outside and play - dont worry, that big bright thing in the sky wont hurt you" instead of "server error".

XBL hasn't gotten any better... it was great for a day or so and then crashed again tonight I guess. My buddy just keeps leveling me in up CoD4, so it works out well since I don't get to play it much =P Went 28-9 tonight though... PWNIN SOME N00BS@!

If you see me online, it's most likely my buddy... send me a voice message and an invite though and if I jump on the mic you know it will be me.
