Soulcalibur remake coming this Summer.

Nice! Loved the DC version, shame the announcement is marred by the lack of online play Guess they don't want it outshining numero four.

Iron Man demo tomorrow

is this US only no sign of it yet

[Malc]

Iron Man..? Is the game ment to be good or something?

[Spatial]

If you're an Iron Man fan like me then it's a digital wet dream.

I just signed into Live and was prompted for a console update, which appeared to be quite big as these things go. Any ideas what it's for?

[Spatial]

Just got it as well - have no idea

Another stealth update to foil teh hax0rs?

edit:

A few minutes ago, the team released a system update for the Xbox 360 over Xbox LIVE. Sometime over the next few hours when you sign in to Xbox LIVE you’ll recieve a prompt to accept this mandatory update. This update contains code to ‘prepare for future growth of the service.’ There are no other changes or enhancements in this update…in other words no new features.

Thanks!

I'm downloading the Iron Man demo now and noticed there's a Condemned 2 demo too, weighing in at 736.56 MB.

Just checked Iron Man. Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuulllllllll as dishwater. Or at least I thought it was anyway. Took a while to get to grips with the controls as well, but that's a fault with me, not the game really Ended up inside the scenary a few times as well, but it's a demo I guess so can't be harsh on it for that. Overall the demo hasn't inspired me to buy it though that's for sure.

I've only just discovered the amazingness that is Uno (even though I've had it for ages), so I'll be giving that card game a miss I guess

UNO is without doubt one of the finest games to grace Live. I have lost many hours to that. Four of us with vision cams, some of us with drink, one of us in a batman mask, another getting bollocked by his missus. Ah, good times!

played lost cities a few times now and am liking it but not sure if its a throw away game or a keeper, i dont want to start a first play thread having not purchased the full game but i can see why people would play it over live as its quite addictive.

at its most basic the game is set out with five colored maps in the center with a set of corresponding cards for each map you start by placing an experdition card or by placeing a low numbered cards against the map and build them up like you would a suit in patience the difference here is that you can skip numbers.

Depending on what start card you use you get a cost incurred to start so you have to take a bit of a gamble at the start of a round as to how many expeditions you want to start on as your only aloud to keep 8 cards in your hand and there seems to be a limited number of turns for each round.

and it that simple build the card suits up to get out of negitive points and beat the opposing players score who is laying down cards opposite, you can also discard cards and have to always have 8 cards in your hand which you either pick up off the top of the discarded pile or off the deck

4 player and live camera support ect ect quite good fun but then i like this sort of game lol
