I'll have to see if I can dig up the links when back at my PC, but it was from people playing it at PAX.

Hmm Triggerheart Exelica and Omega Five?

Think they are both crap to be honest.

I have them both and feel that Omega Five is just a poor forgotten worlds (a game I never liked much anyway) rip off that looks like its a freeware pc game. Triggerheart Excelcia is better than that, but its still just not very fun, even if you dont bother to use the ridiculous throwing mechanic thats a pain in the arse.

They are both poor games really.

KOF:SS is much better than them both.

[Jay]

If anything, O5 is like one of Natsume's much earlier works - Action In New York. It's a great game as is TE, the swinging mechanic of which is superb once you get the hang if it. But each to their own and all that.

Demo of EA MMA was up today... any first impressions yet?

[NoelEdwards]

Does anyone know when MS are going to give the 1200 points to people who bought all the summer of arcade titles. I was hoping to have mine in time for purchasing Hydrophobia.

[ChrisF]

Hydrophobia has quite possibly the most horrible voice acting I've ever heard in a game.

[Spatial]

Scoot's accent offends me, and I'm not even Scottish.

[ChrisF]

I really don't like Hydrophobia, at all. The camera/jumping bothers me a lot.

Normally it's 4-6 weeks, so, mid October?

[yesteryeargames]

has the lfd2 content been uploaded yet?

[fuse]

Sure I saw somewhere on here that there was a Gears 2 offer - the extra campaign chapter and a shedload of multiplayer maps for 400msp, but cannot see it anywhere on the dash. Have I got the wrong week? Should've thought to ask earlier as if it's a weekly one and I've looked in the wrong place it's probably too late to ask

[Family Fry]

The All Front Collection is 400 points!
That's all 19 Maps AND the new single player mission.

Top man, grabbed it now

Although now I am at the massively useless point total of 790

[Family Fry]

I always grab me some indie games if my points totals are silly.
In other news, when did the original Doom get pulled from xbox live?
Actually went to pick it up for 400 and it's not there anymore, damn them.
