I'd buy this game just for the cart racing alone, but without power-ups and weapons it won't be as fun. :(

@ortizlgnd4: I agree with what you said. This may not be a buy, but it's definitely a rental. It looks kinda fun - plus it'll give the developers more time to tweak their Kinect games before the second wave of games comes out.

@KingDavid73: Yeah. I would have at least rented it because of the setlist, but there seems to be a lot of new features that will finally move the series in a new direction. That's why I'll get stuck buying it.

Twisted Sister. YES.

Looks very, very, very....odd - but in a good way. I'll certainly be looking forward to it's release on the Wii VC.

@TrainAss: Thanks for all the info. I'll keep my eye out for a good bargain on a 7200rpm drive. Newegg, Amazon, or Fry's usually always have some sort of deal going on.

I've got a question...

@TrainAss: I might replace the HDD at some point in time. My 360 is my main console - I install all my games to the HDD (then erase them if they're rented), as well as demos, save games, videos, arcade games - and I still have 160GB free on the 250GB drive.

@fELIXADER: You are correct, sir.

That thing is just fugly.

@TrainAss: How well does a 7200 rpm drive run in the PS3? Is there more heat?

@SaintShion: Yeah, basically an HDMI cable is an HDMI cable is an HDMI cable. I had to buy a 25 footer - I thought 'Man, this is going to be expensive'. We wall mounted our kitchen TV. From the TV, down through the wall, back out and to the cable box it was around 20 feet. The extra 5 feet gave us the slack to work…

@Phantom5800: That's going to be a little awkward to use with one hand, don't you think?

Is there going to be a GT6?

What? They don't include the nunchuck with the bundle?

@iownyouallday: Made me think of this clip from Family Guy! LOL

My nephews will absolutely love this.

Still not giving up my release day, 60GB phat model. I need that backwards compatibility for my occasional PS2 outing.

@Shinetop: Actually it does. By making the game free to play, and casual, I was saying that they probably won't spend as much time focusing on upgrades to soldiers, buildings, and controlling what the population does. I'm afraid that the premise of the game will shift from a well laid out, thinking man's game (like…

I'm glad he bought into that auction and won. It's cool that he's going to be in the game - I just hope it's in a higher resolution than that first pic!
