You know the drill. This was a popular one in the orange days, and every other section has their own purchase thread, so why not here?

Today, for the tidy sum of �25, I got this...

Gears of War and Project 8, then my 360 got the 3 red lights of death, despite being cared for like my own child and being only 2 months old...although Game i have to say were excellent with regards to exchanging it!

Last game I bought was a re-purchase of Oblivion. Doubt I'll be buying much for t'360 now till the summer. May get GRAW2 at some point but I'm in no rush.

Have to say that Excite Truck looks like a rip off of 4 Wheel Thunder on the Dreamcast apart from y'know the controls and all that. I'm glad I decided to wait till there was a few decent titles out for the Wii before getting one.

The last game I bought was Wario Ware on the Wii.

But the last game I got was Lost Planet Extreme Condition Ltd Edition on XBOX 360 for my birthday.

You should be in a rush, Giz will have a poster ready for Friday the 9th of March saying we'll be playing it online instead of that GoW guff.

Warioware for the Wii, love it really great fun which I guess is what the Wii was made for.

Pah, it's been a few weeks since we played anything now anyway. Plus I ain't that bothered about GOW online. Not enough game modes. R6:V owns it online. Single player's another matter altogether though.

Edit: Although it is released on the weekend before my birthday so I may ask the missus to get it for me, who knows?

Well at least you're slowly getting there, you'll have it come March 9th (March 7th if you order from Shopto)

I actually think R6V online is now a let down, and the single player is brilliant. However I felt differently about a week ago, constantly changing my mind about that game.

And 2 weeks off and you think that's it? His posters will draw you in like subliminal messaging. You'll be putting your name down quicker than Yeti can down 3 pints!

Heh, that actually made me laugh out loud

.

I'm kind of the same with R6:V to be honest. A couple of weeks ago I thought it was an awesome single player game but then I got stuck. Haven't played the single player since (checkpoints too far apart, very frustrating) but I stil occasionally give it a blast online.

To be honest I haven't actually played my 360 much for the last fortnight.

Superman Returns on the 360. Yes the game isn't brilliant but you're Superman

although some of the stuff you have to do to get achievments are stupid, play for 12 hours - the game is 8/9 hours long, Lift 10,000 tons - they mean tonnes which is something like 20,000,000 lbs and considering the heaviest thing weighs 11,000 lbs you'll be there for a while, Fly for 10,000 miles - people end up getting the blu tak out for this one and leaving it going.

Apart from that it's great fun

Heh, t'was the other way around for me. When I bought it I didn't see the missus for days because I was too busy playing it. Cracking game.

Starts slow but after an hour of playing it opens up and is a lot of fun.
