You're kind, I would have used a stronger word than lame.

Anyone tried the new Pinball Fx table yet?

I would bet I am the only one excited by this but the new GRAW2 co-op pack is up and it's 800 points. I saw it last night and there is this link below.

I didn't get it because i am not sure who still had the game and will pull the trigger. The download is 900+ Megs.

Rez HD is great! If only this would have been the free game...

I hear ya, I used to have the game for the PS2 so I can't see myself forking over 10 bucks for it again - even if it does look & sound much better.

So over the last few days it seemed like there were updates downloading for almost every game I put in. So I just started to go through my old Xbox games to see if any new ones are backwards compatable.

So far NFL 2K5 and Colin McRae 2005 are both now running on the 360! Awesome! I'll post more if I discover any others.

Those two games were added in the fall update. I still haven't gotten around to trying out NFL 2k5 on the 360 yet, I even bought an Xport to use updated rosters with it after hearing that it was backward compatible.

LOL, I must have missed the fall update! Oh well.

Still no Kung Fu Chaos yet, boo!

KOTOR 1 and 2 are b/c after the last one, I don't think they were before. I went back to them after finishing Mass Effect.

Still good, particularly no 2, but I think the 'miles better than ME' crowd haven't actually played them for a while, particularly those who felt that there was more plot and character development in KOTOR 1 (char development is negligible apart from 2 or 3 of your chars, and other than the major plot twist, there isn't a really magic plot....the swoop racing gets on my wick too, but thankfully isn't necessary apart from rescuing Bastila...aka Jedi Annoying).

Sid Meier should just call me for an extra $20 whenever he needs it instead of going through the trouble of releaseing another version of Pirates!

I must've bought this damn game 10 times since 1987...and I can't wait to buy it on XBL next week
