Emergence Day has come and gone. Over two million gamers have already bought Gears of War®, taking up the cause against the vicious Locust Horde. Some lived. Some suffered.

 

It's time for a little good news.

 

Available on January 10th on Xbox Live® Marketplace, Raven Down places you in the desperate aftermath of a helicopter crash, while Old Bones drops you right in the middle of a Locust attack on Sera's Museums. Get right down and fight. Or just sit back awhile and drool over the sick level of detail you've come to expect from Gears of War. Raven Down and Old Bones are brought to you by Discovery Channel's FutureWeapons.

 

It's easy– all you have to do is visit FutureWeapons and you may just be the lucky, little curb-stomper to get a piece of two million Microsoft® Points. Tune in for the FutureWeapons Premier on January 15 at 9PM ET/PT. Don't worry, the show may not have a chainsaw gun, but it has a lot of other cool lethal gadgets to make up for it.

 

For more info on how to get the points, go to readyaimfuture.com.

Top 5 360 games, hmm kinda tough.

 

1. Gears of War, amazing game that is not only gorgeous, but plays like a dream

2. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - This is how you do an open ended RPG.

3. Dead Rising - Zombies + Lawnmower = Happiness

4. Call of Duty 2 - AWESOME GAME, launch title, but still one of the best.

5. Dead or Alive 4 - Fun as hell fighting game, great online play

 

Now these could change if you ask me five minutes from now, other props go out to Condemned, Geometry Wars, Viva Pinata, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Project Gotham 3, Street Fighter 2: Turbo, and Prey.

My top 5?

 

In no neccesary order('cause that's way too much thinking).

 

Gears of War- Popped my squad-based shooter cherry kinda rough-like, but i came around eventually and now I can't live without it.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance- Crapped all over near any other game this year for me, pity it has no shelf-life though.

Oblivion- Immersive as all get out, whole lotta fun too.

Fight Night Round 3- This is the bookend of Ultimate Alliance- Possibly even tops it as my pick for 06, with a helluva lot more shelf life.

... See, here's where I start poring over the contenders like Perfect Dark, Viva Pinata, Godfather(though it doesn't really count since it's just a port), Saint's Row, etc. But nah, last game to make the top 5 has-to-has-to be Full Auto. Game was a whole lotta fun & the worst fucking thing I ever did was trade it in for Dead Rising. I spit on that fucking thing.

 

No seriously, Dead Rising is the most boring piece've shit I ever tried to sit through.

What shits me is I traded back Full Auto to buy it, went to return it within EB's 7-day return to find they wouldn't take it 'cause my housemate scratched the shit outta it. Woulda been simpler again if he hadn't been fired right before Xmas :wank: . So now it just sits in the glove box of the car. I told him it's no good to me, and I'm waiting like a pouncing tiger for him to ask if he can play it again, 'cause now he has another job I can say something like 'You like it enough to buy it off me? :)

Save points are rare and a bitch, text so so small you can't read them, then just for fun all weapons break after a few wacks upside a zombies head, if your not carefull you might restart you game and you'll have start all over again and way to many escort missions which dosen't help when the A.I. stops running when being chased by zombies and you got to run back an save them.

Yeah, I think that's the only way. I shoulda done that to begin with but to be honest with you I forgot about it.

 

So, today I bring the card back and tell them it didn't work. They do an exchange for another one and I'm happy all the way home. Street Fighter here I come and all that. I put in the code...and the fucker doesn't work.

 

I was up for some wall-punching but the hole from the last time is still there. Stupid wall not being able to stand my Power-Fist.
