Uh, cry, no. But Ninja Gaiden II makes me want to throw my controller through the TV.

An abbreviated P90X, supplemented with a cycle-trainer in front of the TV (too hot or dark to ride outside). I do 45-60 mins a day to maintain my current fitness level.

[QUOTE="nate_c-12"]We'll see you in 6mths. Have a fun break. aloneidie

Agreed.

Yeah. Unless you really need the money , I say keep it. Use your LIVE account for netflix or something. Take a break for a few months, or a year. You may want to come back when the weather is bad, or you break your ankle parkouring. :P

Honestly, I think people who dont use reviews are being a bit hard-headed, and possibly just saying it cuz they think its 'cool' to tell people you make your *own* opinions, as if it makes you sound grown up or something.

Or maybe we know what we like? 100 Xbox 360 games and no regrets. I have enjoyed plenty of "bad" games. Too Human, Clive Barker's Jericho, The Godfather 2, The Last Remnant, Viking Battle for Asgard, and etc. If I listened to reviews I would have missed out on well over 30 of my games that I have enjoyed. It isn't hard to read through a review for technical issues and watch some gameplay footage to see if a game looks appealing to you. I don't care if the reviewer gave it a 5 if it looks good to me and isn't plagued with glitches I will definitely buy it. Maybe not for $60 but down the road. Although I did buy Too Human for $50 and I have no regrets.

You're lucky to have the luxury of playing so many games. After 50 or so, reviews probably don't matter anymore, since you'll be dipping well below the "high-marks" games.

Yep. I don't want to waste my time and money. If multiple reviewers say a game is good, then it probably is.

Are you playing these games on the easiest level? On a first playthrough, I like to play on the hardest level possible. It always adds several hours to the game, and I feel I get more for my money since the first-time experience lasts longer. Then, I go back and work on achievements at an easier setting.

I think K/D is the most meaningful statistic in the game, since it is a measure of whether you helped your team win or lose. On a game to game basis, if your K/D is < 1, then you contributed to your team's loss. If you are < 1, and your team still manages to win, that means the other people on your team had to make up for your extra deaths. I'll bet most of us with K/D > 1, also have a win/loss ratio > 1.

Well, your warranty covers the RROD (E74 error) for up to three years. So, you might as well keep it until at least then.
