Running video games (and consoles) thread

I'll join you guys. I suck though...

 

Xbox 360 failure rate is more than 50 percent ...

I'm not too good either. Took me a bit to get used to the controls but so far so good. I'm usually sniping and just having fun. Kind of wish there wasn't the blue/red names over enemy characters. Makes sniping sorta lame.

 

It's probably much higher than that. Pretty much everyone I know who has one has had the RROD.

I found this to be interesting too:

 

Has anyone here played The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion? I am thinking of picking up the Game of the Year edition for $20 for my b-day next month but I want to know if it's worth the money.

 

Mad, Storm, you guys up for some Battlefield?

 

Meant to post this a few days ago.

But there's been a $100 price drop on the 360. So the Elite is now $299, which is the 100 GB hard drive.

 

PS3 will also drop prices.

Also, I'm officially up and running on the PS3 internets connection. Hit me up via PM if you're on so I can add you.

Dang, just saw this. I haven't touched Battlefield in a loooong time.

 

I just saw it too.

My buddies try & get me to play but I'm usually playing NCAA or Madden.

As an aside, have you guys seen any of the videos for Modern Warfare 2? It looks amazing.

 

Yeah. It does look AMAZING. I think I'm going to skip on Madden and get this instead.

 

Madden is pretty awesome too.
