^that's unlucky, but no excuse really! yeah i'll be well up for some coop Ben

got mine today too, thought the wheel was quite good fun but soon changed to a gc pad for better accuracy. hope you guys don't mind but i've added as many codes from here as i could find! just reject it if you want my code is 1934-0786-7313, my name might come up as msm - unclear if it even uses the mii names?

IKARUGA!!!111 etc. amazing. bit sad that my friends list wasn't full of people playing this despite my best efforts to convince as many people as possible that they need to buy it. so everyone here has bought it right? if anyone wants some tips on how to survive (and chain really badly!) on easy, i have a replay uploaded currently in 18th, a lot of bits that look hard are ok if you know what to do. i still suck at normal mode though, find it easier to stop firing on the bit half way through level 2 although i suspect this is similar to easy in that if you know what you are doing it's not as bad as it looks. had some coop games earlier too, first game ran perfectly (hosted by someone else), 2nd game was lagtastic and unplayable - hosted by my crap connection. 2 player is much harder than i remember too.

Managed 56,530,549 - I didn't trigger Fain Tear on stage 3, but pretty happy with my score. cool, i've been trying to do it again with the girl with the narrow shot and am struggling, seems much easier with the wide shot as you can cancel out a lot of bullets. which one have you been using? Super Mario Galaxy (wii) Omega Five (xbla) the club devil may cry 4 Uncharted - Drakes Fortune No More Heroes Riff: Everyday Shooter (6 starting lives) Triggerheart Exelica (1cc on easy) Forza 2 1000/1000 completed it ages ago really but it's my first 1000/1000 after getting the online achievements today

mr driller is ace as expected shame it doesn't include more of the various other modes from previous games.

no more heroes riff: everyday shooter geometry wars ds

apparently the awesome mr driller is next week followed the week after by the even more awesome ikaruga - unclear how true any of this is mind. i've got my hopes up for ikaruga in the past and it still isn't here.

Super Mario Galaxy (wii) Omega Five (xbla) the club devil may cry 4 Uncharted - Drakes Fortune No More Heroes Riff: Everyday Shooter i had 6 starting lives though - default is 2 or 3 i think, and i didn't manage to kill the last boss before the time ran out either. awesome game mind Triggerheart Exelica 1cc on easy played through dodonpachi DOJ the other day too but using a shed load of continues

i'm tempted by uridium too, tried it emulated but think it's probably too old school for me anyway.

i would like to say i'll convert you all to the wonders of halo!!!111 etc. but i've pretty much given up on convincing Ben of halo's brilliance. tonight for the first time in ages we had enough people for some custom games 4v4, it was flipping brilliant

Oliath - http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?ty...pnews&cid=13413 i think cod4 is a good game but compared to halo it's pretty rubbish/boring online, there's no need for teamwork (apart from maybe the hardcore modes but then you sit out most of the game if your crap like me), there's no propper matchmaking and don't get me started on how stupid it is to give someone already kicking ass helecopter and air support - but that's just my opinion sambob wrote: they did the same with the halo2 maps, bungie wanted them all to be free but microsoft disagree so this is the compromise (well it's more complicated than that and the last halo2 map pack might not have been made free?)

the first map pack is free now. and the new map pack out 15th of next month has a remake of lockout :woohoo: (probably the best multiplayer map from halo 2) now they just need to do a remake of headlong.

raiden fighters aces demo is apparently up on the japanese marcketplace (maybe for gold members only at the moment) - time to finally try and set an account up... info obviously nicked from the shmups forum: http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?t=17316 it's out soon, chances of it being region free - slim to none http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-br-49-en-70-2hbm.html

i sort of forgot i had this as it arrived in the huge games overload last year, reminded about it by Hendo's posts i've played it quite a bit recently and it's good fun just like the original quite far into it now but mostly getting bronze medals. not completely convinced adding yellow pickups and a drone that also fires stuff helps visibility on the small screen though, but it's still not that hard to see everything which bodes well for bangai-o.

^ just had a look at that wii list and it's not that bad really, although excite truck is missing (72%) which is odd.

completed this recently and pretty much agree with what people have said already, i probably enjoyed the atmosphere/story more than the gameplay, it's a good game and i enjoyed it but it's like a fancy, less annoying version of tomb raider and to think this is supposed to be the best the ps3 has to offer is a bit, err, disapointing

2 out tomorrow/soon? anyone getting it? i probably will, emailed movietyme to see if they are going to sell it. thought the first one was ok and it's nice to have a shooter on the ds and it looks like they got rid of the silly into the screen perspective for the new one.

really enjoying triggerheart too, but also suck at it. had just enough medal things a few times to get to crueltear on the first level but keep dying as the boss bullet patterns get well hard. edit - nicked that video to try and pimp this on another site edit2 - video at superplay if anyone is interested: http://www.super-play.co.uk/index.php?cont...66&playerid=ALL

i got triggerheart too, it's a really hard game, level 4 is mad with all thoes cube things spewing bullets, i remember a video on youtube or something of that bit being made to look easy!

Hendo wrote: cool, i'll be buying it nice to see the new pac man do well in the awards too.

i've got it so add me if you want, but i can't see me playing it that much so did get up to 10th on one of the leaderboards but still 4th on my friends list :laugh:

Super Mario Galaxy (wii) Omega Five (xbla) the club devil may cry 4 both on the easiest difficulty, going back and doing some harder ones on the club though.

trigger heart exelica is out in japan on wednesday - rest of the world is unclear. it's a recent dreamcast vertical shooter, you can capture, swing round and hurl enemies. seems fun but not played it much. will probably pay for it again

despite playing this practically every day i'll never get the 1000 points, i really don't like lone wolves
