Anyone else stoked for this? I traded in some beaten/stupid games and pre-ordered it. I have a feeling it's going to be incredible, but I also have a feeling i'm gonna have to quit playing WoW to fit it in my schedule  | |

i'm waiting for it to come out so i can test it out and im wanting a demo to be on xbox live first. i have been very tempted to buy it straight out and pick it up on release day but i decided to just go and buy me a couple of psp games instead.
i've decided, after buying pgr3, and only being able to get £25 back, and condemned the same, that i'd rather test games out first. i lost £50 trading in those two games. which is mad.
i've just tried out the outfit, and full auto and cod2 i'ma download after ive watched firefly, and then i'ma download it.
i want to try out the new ghost recon. i've never seen it on screen. or played with it. wanna know how it flows before i jump in and buy it.
and i'm looking at buying burnout, just for giggles. i played with it in a shop, just sailed through with a gold medal, and got an acheivement. was fun  i enjoy the game. destruction and all.
aye well, time to go. | |

aye well, time to go. | Ghost Recon (or GRAW) is fucking awesome from what I've seen. Granted, I can't pull myself away from WoW long enough to sit down and play it seriously, but all my friends sure sound like they're having fun playing it in the other room while I sit here and grind out xp. | |

I highly recommend getting the guide; came out last week, and it's invaluable.
Now that I think about it, the only collectors edition that I really thought was worth the money was Doom 3 for Xbox, because the extras included the original Doom, Doom II and all the expansion stuff. Those games are priceless, in my opinion. | |

My boyfriend just got it and he's seeming to really enjoy it. He says I may too so I might steal it from him sometimes. | |

I am loving it. Only one problem I see. Once every about 10 minutes something runs in the background on my computer and minimizes the full screen aspect of Oblivion. When I magnify the full screen back up Oblivion is hopelessly frozen.
Does anyone know a fixx for this prob??? I disconnected my internet and am going to try that as a solution..... hmmm.....

I'm loving the crap out of it. I have the Xbox 360 version though, so I don't have that issue with the full-screenification. | |

Figured it out.... if you are having the same problem with your game minimizing and than crashing on PC check this---- Do you have an HP printer....??? If you do click CTR-ALT-DLT an dgo to task manager--- check processes--- end any process with an HP or hp in it as it is an active Hewlett Packard image program and it causes Oblivion to crash...

| I ended up getting just Doom 3 Ressurection of Evil which came with the said bonuses. Pretty sweet. I enjoy playing them more so then the actual Doom 3 ROE. Mostly because they're easier. I can't help it; I'm just not very good at video games Quote: |

| Thanks for the heads up. I've had problems with my HP for a while know, though nothing with video games (I don't buy them for the computer). Mine just won't scan anything for anyreason. Really messed up, and it's practically brand new ( year old, maybe. Can't return it or somethin goofy like that. It's my second one of the same model. They just refuse to work right. It's like it's possessed). Quote:

But I'm getting a job soon, working on school junk and trying to become a game designer all at the same time. If it's really good tell us about it will yah?

It's a lot of fun. I managed to steal away some time to play it on the boyfriend's PC (as my laptop would not do well to game on). Trouble will be getting more time to play it. I really like being the cat woman.  | |

The Wood Elf makes a great choice for a thief as well if you want the distance sneak attacks  To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

yeah, the wood elf is better if you want a more magic/combat-oriented stealth style.
I went for the heroic role, and started up a custom orc warrior. his stats are hott. I was going to be a combat mage at first, but I always play magic characters in RPGs. I figured I'd try the whole fairytale hero thing this time around. | |
