I'm going to add them all when I get the time it's a bit tedious though I find it especially useful because when I set it as my background I don't have to keep scrummaging for when the Nets next game is, since it's right in front of me at all times.

I love how the Bucks have no idea what they're doing.

For all who care, I just pre-ordered the new PS3 Slim that was announced today. It should be in my hands by September 1st at the latest. Silver, 120gig HD, smaller, more awesomer for $299. I'm jacked up for this. I'm also a sucker for new gadgets.

+1

I only play a handful of video games now, none of which are exclusive to the PS3.

I just never liked the xBox controller for some reason. I'm not really a "gamer" so I don't do Halo and all that jazz. I play Madden, NBA Live/2K, MLB 2K and that's about it, but I get a blue ray player and now can use the ps3 120gig HD as a stereo for parties.

NetsForce · Post #110 » by **NetsForce** » Tue Aug 18, 2009 8:52 pm

I basically play Call of Duty / NBA 2k on the XBOX... I used to like FPS games but I feel like in general games have been dumbed down nowadays so I'm not really into the whole single player jazz.

I also have a Wii, I still play Smash Brothers + Wii sports with friends other than that, I have a DS emulator and am addicted to the Fire Emblem and Advance Wars series.

I love tactical games that don't go overboard with numbers and try to impress with style over substance.

Yeah I love my Wii man. Wii Sports Resort is solid dude.

I'm just pumped I can now watch Groundhog Day on Blu-Ray. My life is no complete!

NetsForce · Post #112 » by **NetsForce** » Wed Aug 19, 2009 2:49 am

Yeah my to buy list right now is looking like:

- Wii sports resort
- Modern Warfare 2
- NBA 2k10 (only if association mode has been beefed up and made more realistic)
- Batman Arkham Asylum (maybe if the reviews are good and the game is not a 10 hour play-through)

Thought the problem I'm running into right now is I'm too nice, I'm leaving both the Wii and 360 at home with my younger brother until he goes back to college, depending on which system his roommates have I'll let him take one system I'll take the other, and every now I'll swing by and we can switch them up.

Yeah 360 FTW.

^The Batman game is awesome, I played the demo and the game is sooo fun, it's like Metal Gear stealth with a combination of Assassins Creed battle system. Great fun.

Also, anyone seen the Modern Warfare 2 MP trailer?

My wish list:
-Batman
-Madden 10
-Modern Warfare 2
-NBA 2k10

jeff1624 · Post #114 » by **jeff1624** » Wed Aug 19, 2009 7:28 pm

My wishlist:
-Halo ODST
-Mass Effect 2
-Bioshock 2
-NBA 2k10.. probably..

The one thing that has me a bit concerned is that the gameplay looked a bit faster a la World at War (which I didn't like, since it was to easy to get kills).

I love me some "realistic" FPS, I don't like the Halo type games with people jumping all over place and running at warp speed 5.

Did you ever play Revolution X? I was at a friend's house for a barbecue last weekend, and we were talking about Revolution X + Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Turtles in Time, one of the younger kids there said something along the lines of those games suck ans I was about ready to punch him in the face.

Know your role ***ch.

nice, I loved NES, contra is a classic...I've always been partial to Sony, but have owned both...I need to catch up on the Halo(s) since 360 came out, probably will purchase it around Christmas...I have Wii, dont play it much, my wife loves the Wii fit...stood in line at Target the day in came out...

and yes, Live for life...lol...but I might have to convert to 2K9...stuck on street fighter 4 w/ ps3...beat it already with a couple of guys...still waiting on GT5....mannn, fingers crossed for Christmas, but I have my doubts...some N4S coming out too...
