What's your idea of a cheap game?

As for the girlfriend, get on XBL and get yourself a gamer chick!

Carry on.
Doom, you are the man.

Being a Laker fan, I haven't been able to game it up much because of the playoffs.

Epic...make sure you download Aegis Wing in Xbox arcade. It fits in your budget, it's free.

another free game deserves another post



Dash for Destruction, it's a fun simple game. You either play as a T-Rex or a Doritos delivery truck.

Nevermind, the 360 doesn't work. It freezes after like 1 minute of game play.

You and me both, brother! Night driving would be beautiful! Weather effects would rock too. Can you imagine an endurance race involving changing light conditions then inclement weather that makes you pit and switch to rain tires?

Be right back, I need to change my shorts.

Hey guys....don't forget to say What's up to Landin on the boards, he is from Turn 10 and has hooked up many members with Unicorn cars.

I got this awesome Lotus, that you can only buy at the auction house or from Turn 10 directly.

I am so tired.....worked 8 hours yesterday, waxed my car twice went out. And today it rained. Oh well, off to Forza 2 I go, hit me up...I will just be driving around trying to see if I like using the MS wheel.

...on a side note...I have a steering wheel for my PS2, Gamecube...now for my 360....I need a bigger place to store all this stuff. Anybody need a Gamecube or PS2 steering wheel that works with the PS3? (Logitech Force Pro)

http://WWW.FANATEC.COM This is one of the first places I shop when I win the lottery.

The pure edition steering wheel for Forza has an available 6 speed shifter, and this wheel also has clutch, which Forza 3 supports. The wheel costs $180, plus shifter and pedals

I just beat F.E.A.R....this is one creepy game. It didn't help that I usually wound up playing it at like 3 in the morning. Very enjoyable shooter, I'm already watching ebay for a copy of F.E.A.R. II. Next I'm gonna pick back up where I left off on Fable and Dead Space. Been working on my car lately so I been playing a lot of Need For Speed Most Wanted.

What the two of you?

Fear was fantastic. Fear 2 isn't as good but is still a ton of fun.

I logged in and didn't realize I had that old account, you're a admin, could you delete that? Also, have you played the F.E.A.R. Perseus Mandate, some kind of stand-alone expansion pak which I didn't find out about until I had already purchased a copy of F.E.A.R 2?

There were two expansions for FEAR, "Extraction Point" and "Perseus Mandate." Neither was developed by Monolith and both are completely ignored by FEAR 2, so you're not missing out on anything important by skipping them. I never played Perseus Mandate, but I did play Extraction Point. It takes off right where FEAR ended and is more fun FEAR gameplay...just not much of it; it's extremely short.

Any Devil May Cry fans in the Nico club? I got all S ranks on DMC/DMC3/DMC4...If you know anything about DMC2 you know it was an epic fail, I honestly can't bring myself back to just get an S on everything. By far still my favorite game to revisit over and over again, and still one of my favorite games to relieve some stress (Bloody Palace :D).

I bought DMC 3 and 4 for my PC a couple of months ago and installed 4. Capcom doesn't allow you to use a mouse to control your character so that killed it for me but I've since gotten a USB cable for my Playstation controller so I'm gonna give it another shot...from what I saw it was a great game though.

I didn't realize PS3 controllers worked with just a USB cable. Makes sense, though...just never thought about it. Definitely cheaper than a USB 360 controller if you already have a PS3. Does windows support sixxaxis fuctions? Anyone make a specific driver for it yet?

Devil May Cry games are a lot of fun, but man they're basic. In 4, the new guy's cape looks like a plastic action figure cape. The animations are really stiff and fake looking. But then that usually gets forgotten when the killin' starts.

PS3 controllers use a USB mini-b connector for charging and USB connection to the PS3 anyway, so it's a common cable. Same as the one used to charge the controller with the PS3, actually.

The USB cable for the PS3 looks like your run of the mill phone charging USB cable.

BUT I can not charge a Sidekick with my PS3 cable although I can charge a Blackberry with it. Apparently there are two different types of cable that allow more or less "voltage".
