hinn888 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 im thinking of getting it, Im not a massive a fan of sandbox shooters but i did use to play a few. It does look extremely good though and it has 3 huge maps. problem is its 1200 points, and then theres gears 2 dark corner which is 1200 pts and Marvel vs capcom 2, another 1200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimboxy Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 do they work ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 I bought Worms 2 last week and have been playing it on my tag fine. You just need to create a US tag, add the US points to it, download using your US login. Once that's done you can play them as normal on your UK gamertag.

HandsomeDead Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I think I'll get it if the rest of the old squad does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinn888 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 hmm thanks Ed, i might actually have to do that, i have bought a ridiculous amount of points since i had my 360. Looks like i actually need to use my american tag for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 IGN 8.5 Closing CommentsI love that we can download great looking first-person shooters that support 24 players online these days. Battlefield 1943 is an impressive package that sets a new standard for digital titles. You won't find anything new in terms of gameplay, but the seven-year old Battlefield formula remains a lot of fun today. This is a streamlined game that does one thing and does it well: online multiplayer battles. If that's your thing this is one of the best times you'll have on Xbox Live this summer.

Hendo Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 For me it hangs on if I take to the demo and if there's enough people playing it. I felt like I missed the boat on Bad Company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I'll try the demo first. How does it work though? Is it online? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spatular Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 i was going to get this but now hearing it's not working too well with lag and stuff. sounds like it was working ok but now too many people are playing and it's imploded or something? Tried it yet Ed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
