Hey all, I'm Jason but on Xbox Live I go by R4BI3S (pronounced "Rabies" for those that are leet-challenged :P). I game exclusively 360 - no offence towards the PS3 or Wii - I only got time in my life for one console. I'm another one of your 30+ gamers - I'm no achievement whore or nothin' (just look at my GS :P), I just wanna have fun out there. Throw me a FR if you'd like to be friends - just let me know you're from this union ;)

Is someone from Microsoft going to open up the Ark of the Covenant? :lol:

Very interesting question. I was a loyal Playstation gamer for 10 years, and as such I HATED the Xbox. But around '05 I started drifting away from gaming and my PS2. Several friends of mine would always be talking about the fun they had on Xbox Live, though, and I soon wanted in on it, too. I also perceived the Xbox-Playstation balance starting to tip in the favor of Xbox in terms of 3rd party support, with a lot of gaming franchises I knew on the Playstation coming to the Xbox (Devil May Cry, Tekken, etc.). So December 4th 2006, I joined the "Dark Side", took the plunge and bought my first 360. Besides the games (which are awesome), I learned to appreciate the other things the Xbox 360 had tooffer - custom soundtracks, downloadable content, achievements, etc.. My only regret...well I guess it's not a regret since it hasn't happened to me yet, but so far my only 360-related breakdown has been a busted DVD drive. Hopefully it stays that way. Otherwise the "Dark Side" is awesome :twisted:

Pressing "A" about 300 times and restarting my checkpoint in front of a slot machine in Bioshock to get the stupid 10G "Lucky Winner" achievement. Requires no skill...and no life :oops:

I also "boosted" my Gears 2 MP achievements with bots. In part b/c MP online is so glitchy...but also b/c I suck :P

I played the demo too and I thought it was okay, but not good enough to pay full price. Dark Athena should drop in price in a couple months. I may pick it up then.

The Darkness + Batman?! Who over at DC comics jumped that shark?? :?

I liked The Darkness just as it was. The SP game, anyway. A Darkness 2 would be very cool, though. Without Batman.

The Glaive in Dark Sector.

Tough one. I'll probably end up getting both Prototype and Red Faction eventually. But Prototype will be first.

I like to do it because it's not constantly wearing down my DVD drive. I agree with the other points, too.

SSF2HDR. And yes, IMO, the Arcade hasn't been great lately.
