I can't log into my 360 with Internet connected...
It'll get turned off due to me being unable to afford the Live Subsciption.
How much is GTA 5 actually priced?

I went through as much of the info on the site and Nintendo isn't mentioned. It is a PS4 vs XB:O poll.

Further evidence is in the Map.
You cannot have a tie with 3 Systems.
It would be stated as a 3-Way Tie.
The bars show an even split for PS4 and XB:O

I never even saw this Poll.
I call BS on the "results"

I'm waiting for the WiiU version!

Only a few more months before Watch_Dogs comes out. I'm only going to get it if it includes all of the bonus content on disk or if it will all be downloadable for free. Otherwise, I'm not giving UbiSoft my money.

Only 7 days left til Mario Kart 8.
I need to download the Games for Gold to my XboX 360...
Don't know if I'll ever play them... I still haven't finished Skyrim...

@JaxonH
Honestly, the Standard was great. Every race was defaulted to 100cc and I was always in 1st place with ease.
It just needs a bit better handling.

@JaxonH
I understand that, but it was almost a dead stop and slow crawl instantaneously as soon as you hit a grass patch.

@DRL
I was power sliding on every turn.... I blame Mario Kart DS Mission sfor that.
But it happened even when slightly adjusting my course.
But to be fair, I was playing only with the Standard Kart.
Also, unlike MK7, there were no stats listed anywhere for the Kart Piece Specs... It's completely blind when choosing. Hopefully it'll be back on the full version.

@Anthinator
I haven't played Mario Golf since the NES...

@DRL

I played Mario Kart 8 today.
It was fun!
HOWEVER...
There was no Battle mode available... just races.
There were 12 players going at once... which made it more interesting.
NO Blue/Spiny Shell in sight... thank goddesses
Every Character was already unlocked and so were nearly all of the Kart Customizations.
Not many people showed up, but that's understandable seeing as it was not promoted properly, I myself only found out this week.

The game ran beautifully and looked amazing! such attention to even the smallest details.
The races were very short though, they only were 2 laps each.

The cons:
Gliding... Again, it serves NO purpose. There should be "flying" stages for the gliders to warrant an inclusion. I hated this with MK7 as well.
When hovering and you go off the track, you slow down... It's unrealistic... just like Episode 1: Racer... You aren't touching the ground, so there is no reason to 1- Slow down and 2- Slip and slide in Water/Ice levels.

Also, the Kart handling was very "swishy" But I only used the Standard Kart for all of the races. I will wait to unlock them all in my copy of the game before I try the other ones.
With as much as was already revealed, I want to have a few things left unspoiled...

My game is completely payed off so I'll be getting it Day 1 and yes, I'm going to a GameStop event, both days!
I've got nothing else to do, so I might as well do something. And now, after hearing about the "Battle Mode" I NEED to try it. I'm glad I heard what they did before hand, because I'd be pissed if I got the game home and found Battle Mode missing. That was always my favourite part of the games!

@SuperKMx
Thanks.

I'll be playing Mario Kart 8!
Also, Loving that you have a Picture of Mario as part of the Thread!

Since this is the 3rd in the series, will I be totally lost if I haven't played the others?

Even without the Kinect it is still too expensive.
I'd go for it if it was about $50-$75 cheaper still.
Though, to be honest, I've got my WiiU and with Mario Kart 8 out in 2 weeks, I'll be plenty busy between that and a bunch of other games for it. The only thing I'm even interested in for the XB:O is The Witcher 3 and maybe Elder Scrolls: Online... but I'll get that once the Monthly goes away.

The Kraven fight was a very poorly remade Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Boss v Naked Snake fight.

Even when there is a building to latch on to, the Webline doesn't always shoot out.

Spider-Man NEEDS to stop JUMPING off of every Web-Line while swinging.

Auto-Target is terrible, I agree!
There also needs to be more Web "Attacks"
I want to shoot a long continuous strand at a bda guy like the old PS1/N64 Games!

Tobey has such a terrible voice for Spider-Man that it destroys the game immersion for me.
I never played Shattered or its Sequel.
I tried Ultimate on the GameCube but could never get into it. I always had too much going on in my life.
I'd like to try it now though.
Friend or Foe was terrible after the second level.

LIES!
ALL LIES!

I vote none.
Though Spider-Man 3 on the Wii was kinda fun...
My favourite Spider-Man games are the old N64/PS1 Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro

@DRL
There's more, I just couldn't remember it all.
Anyway, I look forward to seeing your review!

So, I've been barely playing it and somehow I'm at 12 or 14 completed Main Missions...
WTF!
How in their right minds could they charge full price for such a short ass game????
There was also no explanation as to how Max became Electro, no cut-scenes, nothing. He starts out in OsCorp as a hostage and then the next time you even hear about him is when you fight him...

The Hero/Menace bar drops very quickly. Yet takes forever (slight exaggeration) to fill up or even refill.

The pointless "Cut-Scene" every time you Pass or Fail a Mini-Mission.
The Camerawork is bad.

The "Auto-Aim" never works properly except for in the Electro fight.
The Kingpin fight is very hard, much harder than it needs to be. I felt like I needed a 3rd hand...

• 1 for running, one for Spider-Sense/Jumping, Webbing and a 3rd just to keep the camera where it needed to be so that I could see what was going on, but also to use the Auto-Aim...

I was actually excited for this game, but it's really terrible.

I seriously do NOT recommend this game to anyone.

GameStop already does this... Plus with Pre-Orders at GameStop, if paid in full before release day, they don't charge tax...

I'm also getting it for the WiiU!

He even said it himself that those were the Games that would be launching the program!

• Dragon Age: Origins
  • Mass Effect
  • Witcher 2

That's all I'm getting.
I actually own Witcher 1 & 2 for my PC, but my LapTop keeps overheating when I play them...

I'd like to know this as well!

@Tasuki:
Download it using MicroSoft Points.
I kept trying while my Debit Card was selected and it kept giving me an error code.
I switched it to MSP and it worked right away!

Yes, XboX Live IS DOWN!!!

Otherwise, I'd download this now.

Too bad XboX live is DOWN!!!

The WiiU IS a next generation console!

WiiU as well?

Oh, and for me, it lasted 2 days...

I was able to log in.
The only problems I had were with the Friends list.
I couldn't add, delete or view profiles.

I've only just recently (January 27th) got an XboX 360.
I'm not upgrading to a new one, nor am I getting the PS4.
I'm saving up for the WiiU.

1313 was nearly complete.
BattleFront 3 was nearly complete.
I don't get why they just don't release them and at least recoup some of the loss...

DAMN!!!
I bought Skyrim: HearthFire and DragonBorn 2 weeks ago!!!
