I would be offended, but that is one kick-butt emoticon, so I can't complain

I'm currently working on a mod for my 360, and one of them includes using a new CD drive I put in that I think may put scratched discs to shame. Does anyone know any good websites (besides ebay) that sells broken 360 games? By broken, I mean the scratched discs can still be put into the 360 and the game is recognized, but when the "play game" option is actually selected the game gives an error message.

I have this friend who has recently been introducing me to all these old great games. He said that Conker's bad Fur Day is awesome, and I should play it. However, I then looked it up, and Conker: Live and Reloaded was apparantly a remake for the xbox, but it was censored a little.

So what should I go for: The uncensored/crappy graphics N64 version, or the censored/okay graphics xbox version?

LOL... Good luck OnLive. Competition has come sooner then many have thought.

"Surprisingly, OnLive already has competition on the horizon. A startup by the name of OTOY aims to provide high speed gaming, HD movie playback and more, by using a web browser plugin. The driving force behind OTOY is AMD's Fusion Render Cloud, a supercomputer class machine capable of petaflop processing power with over 1,000 GPUs. In a conversation with Jules Urbach, OTOY's CEO, he mentioned that OTOY will be entering beta in the summer and should be up and running in the year."

DAMN that was fast. Well, on the plus side, competition always forces businesses to up the ante. Unfortunately, this could also lead to a rushed distribution with many flaws, thus turning many people off of the idea

I am just beyond pumped. I don't know anything about computers, the highest quality game I can smoothly run is Max Payne from 2002. Sure, I probably wouldn't adopt OnLive during THIS generation of gaming, as I already have a 360 which I love very much, but next generation....hey, I just may have to make the PC switch. It just seemed so fluid and so simple, I really can't help but get my hopes up (still, I do realize that it COULD flop. I'm just hoping it won't) Also, this could be a new revolution for gaming prices. I love gamestop as much as the next cheap gamer, but if suddenly a new brand of games came out that could never be lent or re-sold, then wouldn't that eventually create a larger profit margin for the companies, thus creating profit models allowing CHEAPER games? I don't know about you guys, but I miss the days of the $30 new game, and I think this technology could at least stop prices from rising, and quite possible lead to a price reduction if the system becomes big In summary: I'm pumped

I am a cheap gamer. I don't play for the second run throughs or achievements. I play just for the main campaign, and that's it. (nope, don't have a Gold account either) After shelling out 30 bucks for Gears of War 2, which I then beat in 2 days (about 8 hours in total), I realized that I should seriously start renting games to save some cash. So: Do you know which high-scoring games (say 80 or above on metacritic) are beatable in 1 weekend? (my limit is somewhere from 12-14 hours)
