Re: Battlefield 3

I've read in the forums that the latency is still way too high with satellite, even with the gen4 upgrade. This card is working pretty decent. I really get very little lag. I can always upgrade my limit if needed, but I'll try the 5gb for now. I was just hoping that the put most or all the extras on...

Re: Battlefield 3

Yep, cellular card. Live out in the sticks. I've checked and as far as I can tell only options are cellular card or satellite. I tried the satellite route and it sucked. Cell card isn't too bad. Never thought there was a chance I could play online, but I got a 14 day gold trial for Live and tried it...

Re: Battlefield 3

Guys,

Does the Premium edition have everything on discs? Or does it just have the original game and codes to download the expansions? With only a 5gb/month limit, I'd rather not use it up downloading everything.

Re: Tomb Raider

I wish the extra tombs were part of the story. That is my only small, small gripe. I went to collect all the extra stuff and played a couple of the extra tombs, but got somewhat bored with that and decided to trade it in. Got Mass Effect 3 and Portal 2 for it.

Re: Top single player games of this generation

I thought RDR was great, but I like westerns too. I tried to play GTA IV a couple times and got somewhat far before I just started getting bored and found myself always just wanting to cause trouble and have the police chase me. I've never been that big into the whole crime/mafia thing. Yet I though...

Re: Xbox 360 Marketplace and Arcade thread

I enjoyed the first 2 Call of Juarez games. Both were decent westerns. Stayed away from the 3rd game because of the horrible reviews.

Re: RIP: Earl Weaver & Stan Musial

Baseball lost two greats today. Really wasn't that familiar with Weaver simply because I was only 10 when he quit managing, but realize he was one of the best. As a lifetime Cardinal and fan though, news of Musial hit a little harder. One of the top 10 players of all time, and probably the nicest. I...

I would agree that a trained armed security person would be a good thing. I'm guessing they will have to do away with any glass for entryways, unless they move to bulletproof glass. It perhaps would be enough of a deterrant. Who knows. Ridiculous it even has to come to this. And unfortunately it wo...

You really think the teachers are going to go for that? Be ready to up the salary for those that do. Of course we can't give schools the money they need the way it is. And do we really want that? Are people going to trust the teachers that much? Especially the stress these teachers have to deal with...

Crazy people are going to do crazy things, laws or not. They would just find another way or break those laws to do it.

Re: Too many good games, not enough time to enjoy them

I realized this issue a couple of years ago with myself. It just didn't make sense to me to buy games at full price and have them sit. So I quit that and played what I had for a while (which was more than plenty). Since then I usually only pick up pre-owned at GS. So the games I would have paid $60 ...

You can just play against bots, correct? No online play available for me, but I may be interested if I can just play some quick bot matches, as long as the bots are decent. I know you could do this on the original xbox version and the bots weren't too bad.

Re: What new RPG? (Xbox 360 only)

Forgot about that one. Yes, I have. Played a ton of the first one, but never finished it. Never tried Vegas. It wasn't bad, but just didn't hold me like Oblivion and Skyrim. I have also played Mass Effect 1 and 2. Didn't get into 1 much, but loved 2. So obviously Mass Effect 3 is a choice as well.

Guys, I'm thinking of jumping back into another RPG after beating Skyrim a couple of months ago. I traded it in after beating it and figured I would pick it back up down the road after they release it with all the DLC. It sounds like the big 3 to pick from are Witcher 2, Dragon's Dogma, and Kingdoms...

As much as everyone likes to rag on Game Stop, be sure to check out their selection of used games. They can be returned within 7 days if you're not happy with the game. Besides skyrim, I've only bought used games or bargain bin games for the last year at least. There are so many excellent older gam...
