They're making it to shelves more frequently now it seems but they are still selling out quickly. I don't know when you'll see some just lying around.

yep, just checked a few best buys and walmarts in my area and all are sold out. for some reason, best buy is not getting as many consoles as i thought. i'm gonna check back at the end of the month to see if i can snag one.

I rather enjoy it but I have to admit that it's tough. Granted, I've never been very good at that genre.
Yeah, me neither... I imagine I'd be just a play toy for everyone online. 😉
 
DOA4 had me so ticked off yesterday :|

I beat story mode with all characters and have the spartan. Now I'm trying to get the last unlock by beating Time Trial with all characters, but the time trial matches are ridiculous - the opponents are much harder than they were in Story Mode.

Especially the clone at the end.... that b!tch.

Yea dude, it has had me well.... hot lol. Anyhow now if you are working on getting the last character unlocked (tengu) you can actually put the settings to 1 round in time and can still unlock him. Check my gamer card and you can see where I've unlocked him by doing this. You can only do this for unlocking tengu but not for unlocking costumes for the 4-5 characters in time mode.

In others news looks like Far Cry Instincts maybe on it's way to the 360 this march.

FYI - The demo for Fight Night may show up on Live tonight.

sweet... i will download that tomorrow... my xbox is still packed up from when i took it on vacation... my hd tv is broken so i have no reason to unpack it yet... but i will definitly look into this tomorrow if it is out...
 
Wow ... I'm definitely REALLY impressed w/the graphics in Fight Night. I'm not that big on the controls, but then again, I didn't even read what buttons did what. It looks like a game that I could definitely get into though 🙂

I saw a few glitches but thats expected from a demo.
 
Well my friends, I have located the issue I am having with WMC and the Xbox. It appears that Linksys wireless routers have an issue translating UPnP devices between Wireless and Wired functionality. Plugging my PC directly into the router caused my 360 to immediately locate the PC. Ugh.

Yes, pretty impressive thus far.

Wow. I wonder what the price point is going to be.
I was wondering that too. It's concievable if they make this reasonable (I'd say they really shouldn't price it at more than about $100 to stay competitive with Sony) I'll end up with both of the new HD standards as I'll probably purchase a PS3 for the low entry cost to Blueray.

Same here.

Aren't standalone player supposed to begin retailing for like $500? (I may be wrong... I haven't been following it too closely.)
