i am SOOO excited right now
i am SOOO excited right now
I wonder what Korea did to

I wonder what Korea did to piss off Microsoft? Maybe it's because they got the Starcraft II announcement and MS is still bitter about Starcraft: Ghost? Or the lack of WoW on the 360?

Thought this game was going

Thought this game was going to be 8 player on live? Has that feature died?

Mad Tracks

This looks like a must buy. It's among my top 5 most anticipated games. I will try the demo first though. Why? Cause I went and bought Novadrmoe straight off. How could I go wrong. Cars, projectiles and online? Well the gameplay was a bit of a mess. It did nothing well. Here's hoping the best for Mad Tracks.

I second that Novadrome

I second that Novadrome comment...whew. I am somewhat interested in Mad Tacks. I'll have to try it out. Gotta love those demos.

 

I was REALLY looking forward
I was REALLY looking forward to this one for ages, but after playing the demo, its left me in a state of is it really worth 800 points? I know the demo doesnt have multiplayer which is what its all about, but i just felt the controls and overall whole feel of the game just left me dry....i dont think i'm gonna get this now....
