If you're working your way through homicide right now, then I know how you feel. Every homicide case is almost identical and I also burnt out trying to play all this in one go. I took a break and came back to it, and it got better again as it progressed into Vice and Arson.

I noticed this when you did your 14 min gameplay, can't hit any of them. It's the same as Midnight Club LA (another Rockstar Game), you couldn't hit any pedestrians in that game, all of them dodged superbly.

@Nexus6: What he finally was sacked for was exactly that, sexual harrassment. This whole situation is more than a sexist joke about knowing the offside rule.

Anyone else remember the card that came with boxed copies of Uplink in the UK which was covered in different codes that you had to enter when prompted by the game? Can't find a photo online, but I remember losing mine and was then practically locked out of any new installations.

Split/Second, just in real life.

@DukeOfPwn: I'm not sure whether MM is owned by Sony (I don't think so), but I'm pretty sure Sony Entertainment own the rights to LBP, and let MM develop it. Like Activision shopping around for the next developer of CoD. The publisher still own the rights, and unfortunately in this case the publisher also makes the…

I remember reading Keiron's work in PC Gamer UK like 10 years ago, he was the highlight of that magazine (aside from the time I was featured as a solution writer in their 150th issue, just sayin').

@MonkeyBiz: Driver number 1 proving that acceleration is the answer to all of life's problems.

@psycoking: As a PC player turned Xbox player you are 100% correct unfortunately. The best experience on team based Xbox games is to play with established friends using voice chat, at least then you can communicate and request help if needed. I play BC2 on Xbox like a PC player, constantly spotting, running around…

@Omnimon: He looks like Alan Rickman in Love Actually.

@Pixiebutt: Operation Flashpoint has come quite close to some of these, especially on the harder difficulties. The first one on PC was very good, and I've just been playing Dragon Rising on 360 and while the missions are somewhat disappointing, it's a massive step above the likes of COD when it comes to realism.

@Hmmmdrop: I tried just now on Xbox.com and it's listed as Free but when you click through and it asks you to confirm it lists it for 800. Good job to anyone who snagged it in time though.

I use XIM2 regularly and I can vouch for its quality when it comes to PC-like playing. I was a PC gamer for years and finally made the switch to Xbox for a number of reasons. The downside to this was having to ignore all FPSs that are released on the system, as I didn't have a chance in hell to enjoy them.

The Kmart Thanksgiving day price for AC Brotherhood on Xbox is wrong. It's $39.99, not $34.99.
