US_ARMY

lol, my school choir made one of the soundtracks for this game.
I might be getting annoying but hey look…………………. it’s another damn M$ article. I miss the good ol’ PS3 dlb-network. nothing but M$ all over this site.
@ locos, what u mean its all ms around here? this is the first 360 exclusive i have done
I’m talking about all the latest headlines on the site. Most of them have been about M$, im not just talking about your review.
US_Army tell me your gonna do a Gears of War 2 review? Don’t listen locos85, he’s menstruating.
@ smokewitme
lol, yeah your right. I might be little bit exaggerating. I can’t stand M$. 1st I get RROD, then they send me a 360 that sounds like a damn spaceship at launch. Then my Zune is freezing and shit. Now they forced my laptop to have shitty Vista, and they are already going to drop it for Windows 7, instead of fixing Vista. I have been stupid enough to keep throwing money at them like alot of other people have. I am now at peace and mind with my PS3, and my Ipod. Except for more M$ articles all over the place. I will play Gears 2 then sell my 360.
@ locos85
chill man. i prefer ps3 over 360 as well but i still enjoy all the gaming news so i can keep updated on everything, one of the main reasons i like this site. also, keep in mind this is a place for “gamers” not “fanboys”. i don’t see why this is a problem to people, when there was a lot of ps3 news i bet y’all weren’t complaining then now were we?
Why is everyone getting upset. I’m just stating the obvious. There has been a surge of 360 news compared to the past. I’m not saying its good or bad.
But back to the original topic,
I rented Fable 2, games was fun to play. But it had alot of negatives for me. I hated the expression wheel. But the worst thing in the whole game was the shitty ending, it was so anti-climatic. ***spolier**** and the final “fight” with Lucien was shit. 1 shot kill. ****
Games was worth a rental to me but not a buy.
@locos85
man i totally agree with u about the the ending i was expecting some big fight with him and when i got to him bam its over, it was pretty disappointing.
Also the multiplayer wasn’t that great either, the camera angles got annoying really fast and the fact you have to use a pre-made character for your appearance was stupid, what we can use all of our skills and keep the xp but our appearance noooo come on it couldn’t of been that hard to put ones characters into another, Lionhead just got plain lazy on the whole multiplayer aspect, it could have been alot better.
@ locos85
its not the fact that anyone’s mad, just you have a problem with nothing. there’s always gonna be either alot of ps3 news, 360, or wii or equal, just deal with it. 360 just happens to have a little more happening apparently. don’t worry, more ps3 news to come buddy.
yeah i hear ya, its just been alot with gears and the new interface, but ill make sure there is more ps3 news as well, and yes i am doing a gears 2 rewview dont worry
thx us army, lookin forward to your lbp reveiw, you should make it a long one
