I want another one because: A) I have almost 70 retail games for it and over 40 arcade games -and- B) Its the best gaming console out there, so why wouldn't I want it?

Which imo only helps to expose Jack Black as a fraud. (note my avatar)

12gb? Did you mean 120gb? Thats a good question, although since there's a system in there too I doubt it has the transfer cable. On the other hand, if you have one (and the disc) I'm betting you can do the transfer thing again with it. The only bummer is that once the transfer is...

Thats what I was thinking too, since I paid $150 for a new 120gb HDD a year ago. So long story short, I pre-ordered this sucker on the spot. I was actually headed up there to purchase WET, but I figure that'll be @ $30 in the used bin soon enough anyway so I put the $50 down on this deal. I...

Really, you should read closer. My question was whether or not I was the only one, not stating that I was the only one. And it has nothing to do with liking the game...but again, you should try reading the OP again.

I should mention the metal aspect as well. I am a metal fan, but not a fan of the subgenres metal has been broken down into over the last decade or so. I prefer old school metal like Maiden and Priest, stuff with pounding rhythms yet with awesome guitar melodies. Black parodies metal both...

If you want to dismiss this as a generic "fill in the blank" thread, knock yourself out. However the question still stands. I see all this praise for Jack Black and his zany antics, funny movies, and great music and yet I can't stand the guy, his movies (except High Fidelity, but he only had a...

Its got to be Mario. I gave up on Nintendo over a decade ago, but things are what they are. I love Halo and its universe (although I'm not very good at it) but Mario is pretty much the standard-bearer for identifiable franchises.

...because they can barely handle Jack Black in small doses, let alone throughout a full game? This is hard for me because of Tim Schafer's involvement in the game, but I cannot handle listening to Black. For my money the guy is scarcely funny, overbearing, and a lousy musician. I'll...

Bass. I just have 2, both Ibanez models, 4 and 5 string.

Take new risks? This is EA we're talking about, right? The only "risks" I've seen EA take in their sports games is to make us pay for features that used to be standard (online franchises) or cheats. Or to have extra golf courses for TW available for purchase on the day TW releases. Remember...

And now...the popup is gone. I just played a few games in my franchise with nary a sight of the offensive ad. And like you said Kelbear, if its part of the environment the ad is no big deal. Billboards and what-not, stuff you might notice or might not. But this was over the top.

Thats normally not an issue with XBox games though, since the online is largely P2P. Sony has the publishers pay for the servers, so eventually those have to end. However most Live games can be played whenever. I know my son still has his group he plays CoD2 online with, and that game is...

You don't play sports game because of ingame ads? I haven't seen them as that big of an issue until last night, but you may be playing different games than I am. I don't have a way to take a pic and I don't see any others posted online yet, but I'm sure they will be up eventually. Has...

Well thats the problem, its obtrusive. That means "its in the way; unavoidable". Its a big honking ad similar in color to the pic posted above with the Big Mac. It doesn't cover the players, but because of its odd placement and its coloring (which in no way blends in with anything else) you...
