    The fucking shitty d-pad really stands out in Bioshock 2. I've just died four times in a row trying to take down a Big Daddy. Was it my fault? Nope. Twice it was because I kept trying to press right to use a medic kit and it just wouldn't acknowledge the press. The other two times I got killed trying to change ammo after I ran out of anti-personnel rounds halfway through the fight. I kept trying to press left to switch to regular rounds and...nothing.

          Before the Slim, I only had a 20GB HDD, now that I have 250GB I always install games I'm currently playing or may come back to, which si about 12 games and I still have 200GB of space. Microsoft letting you install games was one of the only good things they have ever done.

            It sounds fine now that I installed. It's crazy, I have never heard a game work my 360 that hard.

            I'd love to install all my games but it's not really feasible. I have a 120gb and only have two games installed, Borderlands and Bioshock 2. I have less than 30gb left.

                It's excellent and I think it took me around 8-10 hours.

                  Bought the playstation move today. No opinion yet, but the motion detecting is lag free for Sports Champions.

                      I'm actually considering buying an OG Xbox. Backwards compatability on 360 blows. I've heard you can find them on ebay dirt cheap. I still own a few games that aren't BC and I have one game that I really want to play through, Mercenaries, that absolutely sucks on the 360. The emulation is so bad. The radar doesn't work half the time and the game freezes constantly.

                      Any suggestions on where to find one cheap besides ebay?

                        craigslist? Game Stop? Ebay would net you the best deal though.

                          My little brother took mine (and the 360... and the GC, but who cares about that?) to Corona with my dad. But my friend has one he doesn't play so he's going to give it to me.

                            Don't buy one, you can have one of mine. I have two. I sold the games I had for it through Craigslist some time back when I was hurting financially. Guy didn't want/need a console though. I don't have any of the original packaging but I have all cables and the console is fine. Let me know if you are interested.

                              Going for it on repeated 4th and longs and putting a wide receiver at QB for option cheese STILL wasn't enough, you cheesy fuck.
