\"Halo 3 = HD Bunny Hopping Combat.\" Unknown Editor. \r \r LOL :) Admit it, it is really stupid when people start jumping around to avoid getting shot.

I am doing a MOH Girls Night in September 8th for PMS clan - all night MP with the ladies! If you guys have it - please come join me on PMS JeepChick tag....WOOT!

KingDrewsky·
Wow. That Halo3 editorial was REALLY bad. Complaining about lack of bots in H3? H3 needs no bots - thats what MP is for.
T
TANK·
@ekattan : ya i had to chuckle at the bunny hopping comment. It's a totally valid point though, but i think that was made popular back in the early unreal days.\r \r @WJeepChick: Sounds interesting. If i pick the game up, i'll join you.

GS called and said it's in Two Worlds, I think thats a out side of the US date.

\"EA wrecks two great developers\"\r \r Isn't the site news reporter supposed to be objective? :wink: \r \r Just kidding...

Like the Creed Update thanks

Good month for Xbox 360!

i love your news section, gets me thru the day everyday\r keep up the good work buddy!
C
CarbonChemist·
Ditto ...\r \r Good to see that the Xbox is making some money for once. \r \r Its unfortunate that Assassins Creed is coming out a week before Mass Effect. Which means that it will be religated to a Christmas purchase for me. Unless the limited edition holds enough value for me to pick it up next month.

ekattan·
Dodgeball OMFG I'm in. I used to play it on Sega or Nintendo can't remember which. Hope it's the same game.

The Xbox 360 news in Japan is huge! Wow...

If they fired Jeff Gerstmann, I'm fucking never visiting Gamestop again. Thats is totally fucking unethical.

Merry Christmas Tank.

I believe the cod thing is based on all platforms...Ps3, 360, and Pc
T
TANK·
That could be and would certainly give it a significantly bigger potential install base than Halo 3 being exclusive to 360.
F
Flywalker·
sad thing about the ea news, is that even though it is delayed you would think that would mean that that they will have all the kinks worked out. How much you want to bet both those games have serious problems when they come out. That is the way EA does business.
T
TANK·
Ya i fully agree and can only imagine how huge the problems are right now considering these games have already been delayed numerous times.\r \r I'm not buying either one of these games launch day, i'll wait and see how damaged they are.
O
OrzoKhan·
The Best Buy by me is sellng Halo 3 Legendary for $99. They have quite a few left.

Gears of War has a business division? What do they do?

Biggest news not on your list - GTA goes gold\r http://www.gamespot.com/news/6189477.html?part=rss&tag=gs_all_games&subj=6189477
T
TANK·
THat news is about the takeover and it's zzzzzz.\r \r GTA went gold back at the end of March. It takes ~ 30 days to manufacture discs and ship them. If it were going gold today, ti wouldn't be out on the 29th.\r \r

Love the addition of all the \"spins\".
J
Jedi_Kez·
Okay, I don't think I understood Microsoft's spin... WTF were they talking about?\r \r Nintendo's was probably the best spin, they didn't try to make up any weird stats.\r \r It sill amazes me how well the Wii sells, even with GTA4, none of the other consoles came close to Wii sales.
T
TANK·
I think Microsoft's point is that even though Wii is kicking their ass, Microsoft is selling the most games.

Where's BIONIC COMMANDO for Arcade? :(
