Do you remember the first game you played on 360? I just re-purchased King Kong for $18 and after putting the disc in and watching the opening scene with the amazing water effects and physics  and awesome sound it brought back memories.

What was your first game?

Comdemned Criminal Origins  and besides Oblivion it is still my favorite game I have played.   It had such a Next-Gen fell.  The game starts out by a cop knocking on your window, and  with my surround sound I actually jumped.   Then when you walk down the screen actually feels  like you are walking down stairs.   It was those small touches that made it feel like a next-gen expierence.

Very cool thread by the way

Theres something in english called paragraphs or indents, use them!!!

Anyway nice topic, I feel more stronger than ever, games give me the energy to do anything I want.

I love when people make fun of other peoples writing skills and/or grammer, and then proceed to do the same thing. 

It is a video game forum, the second rate english teachers can take a hike.

me too. FF is utterly dull.

I happen to agree also.  Final Fantasy is the reason I missed out on some amzing turn based games over the passed years.  I am just now playing KOTOR1 and 2 which I love .  The reason is the first three turn based games I ever played were FF,  and frankly they bored the crap out of me.

Or for that matter even the next year.  Every good game you can get somewhere else for cheaper.   Don't give me God of war 2 becuase that plays fine on my PS2.

Um, I bought one & I don't regret it. And I own all 3 systems now so I win, you lose. ColoradoKindBud

How does he lose.   All he said is they are piling up in stores.  Which is ture.  He also said no one in their right mind would pay that much for one.  Judging by your response post point proven and you lose. 

Yeah, I'm looking forward to playing it in 720p on the PS3.ColoradoKindBud

Me too and I did not even have to buy a PS3.  Because I have componet cables for my PS2.  Even the first God of War had a progressive scan option.

I can't believe how people can come up with dump things like : " teh game is 1080i , it's only upscaled to 1080p 11!1!1! " . 1080 = 1080 . the only difference between the 2 resolution , it's the way the picture is rendered on the screen . Stop being dumb people and start thinking . here a link , it might teach you something :

There is so such thing as 1080i upscaled to 1080p . since it's the same freaking scale .
maybe the SW IQ will rise now

You are totally wrong about 1080p and 1080i being the same resoolution.   1920 x 1080 is the resolution for 1080p   and 1366 x 768 is the resolution for 1080i.    That is a huge difference.  Check your facts before you argue.

bro.  comes down to this.  i bypassed all the pages so im probably repeating someone.  either go to college and all that jazz and get a degree which you may end up hating anyway.  or work and experiment around with what your interests are if you can find a job without any training in it.  either apprenticing or just doing "*itch" work more or less.  college is not always required to have the nicer things but you do have to work to get anything.DesmondPills

I completly agree with this guy.  I went to college got good grades and now my job has nothing to do with what I went to college for. I might be making less money now, but IU don't hate my job and that goes a long way.    If you would have asked me in High School I would have told you if the Money is good I will do anything.  Now I just want to be Happy.

I  am 22,  I do Human Resources and Payroll and Make 11.50 an Hour.   I just upgraded from a 42" samsung widescreen projection and a KLH 5.1 audio sytem.  My mew set up is a 37" Vizio LCD and a Onkyo 7.1 surround sound system.

For a cheap TV my 37" VIZIO LCDTV cost me $900 bucks at Costco and looks just as good as my parents LG 37" LCDTV tv that was $2000.   As for suround sound sytem you can get 5.1 systems for around $125- $150.   Basically I also spend all my Money on this type of stuff.
