Stop putting this in perspective. I don't like the realization that I've spent around $2,000 on points. I mean, I know video games are kind of a waste of time, but the fact that XBL games are even more intangible than retail games plus most the of the retail games cost around $100 each after DLC. I should've bought a car or robot girlfriend or something. *sigh*

what they said, and 5400rpm is preferable for the speed. i heard the 7200rpm run hotter.

It's basically Ubisoft's own reward system. If you press Y at the title screen, it'll take you to a screen where you spend those points on in-game items and I think there's a theme in there.

I bought a pair of the Tritton AX360's a few years back and they're still the best I've tried. The only downside is that they require optical outputs from the audio source, but they give pretty accurate 5.1 surround sound. I haven't checked out their new headphones so they might have more input options available now.

Worth a rent, but I wouldn't purchase it. Fun while it lasts. Although, I think Saints Row 2 is the best out of the more recent sandbox games.

You absolutely need a third hard drive for the data to be backed up. The worst part is that it only will save your save games and any installs or downloads from the Playstation Network need to be reinstalled/redownloaded. It's a pain, but at least your PSN account has a history that you can redownload from. I don't remember what guide I used, but Google it and you'll find all the info you need.

If you're playing with friends, maybe. Like the other poster said, it's just level grinding. Like a blander, faster-paced Fallout 3 minus the story, meets the co-op of Left 4 Dead. I wasn't a huge fan to be honest.

I was misleading with that comment. I do like the cel-shading, it looks great, but I remember the first preview I saw in Game Informer and it had a much more destitute feel. Kinda Gears of War/Mad Max-ish.

GTAIV was def a departure from previous GTA's. In some ways it was good, but mostly just bad. I did enjoy the two expansions, if you played it on 360 at all. I don't care what anyone says though, Saints Row 2 was a blast. The story was meh, but just the customization, vehicles, activities make it worthwhile. Streaking and Insurance Fraud = Best side missions ever.
