Whats bothering you about MW2 multiplayer? Is it the insane amount of glitches and hacks? The patch that broke more than it fixed? The infinite ammo and no reload virus?

Truth be told it's starting to lose it's luster for me too. Just got the GTA Liberty City stories, gonna take a break and work through that for awhile.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for Wii.

This game doesn't look all that great, but it plays like a B!tch!

I picked this up as a Christmas gift for the kids. Guess who spends the most time with the light saber, though?

ME2 should have similar requirements. May be time to upgrade the vid card, there are plenty of deals on good cards right now.

My vidcard (GeForce 8600GT 256MB) & RAM (3GB) should be good, it's my processor: DragonAge says it needs dual core, and all I got is Athlon64 3400+. From what I've read, ME2 is on the same engine as ME, right? I'm hoping that's the case...!

Going through FF12 for the first time.
I'm definitely not used to the new battle system, but atleast it will prepare me for 13...

Red Dead Redemption and Splinter Cell: Conviction are both coming out in the next quarter and will be def. titles I pick up.

Been a while since I've been on CA..

I can't get into Borderlands. Just isn't any fun. Hooked on MW2 but as others stated there's too many glitchers and boosters.

I tried the MAG beta today. Can't say I was too impressed

Darksiders hit shelves tomorrow. That ought to be good

Been playing borderlands with a few friends online. Got the expansion "Neds zombie island (or whatever it was called) almost complete. Beat Ned but still got to go back and do a few smaller missions.

Darksiders is awesome. Think God of War meets Legend of Zelda

I have seen this exact same post on a couple of different forums now. It's likely a retailer exclusive, but since you didn't mention which PoP you have it's kinda hard to narrow down. I have seen limited runs on the the second one and the PSP version, but none of the latest cell shaded suckfest or the original.

Today Dark Void hits and next week we get Mass Effect 2 and No More Heroes 2. Nice way to cap the month

I WAS playing it until my Mac's HD went out on me. I didn't have the Windows partition backed up and there went my progress. I finished the game and did plenty of side quests with a level 40+ Hunter. When I get another copy of windows maybe we can get in a match?
