Yup, living in Belgium as well and I'm loving it. Loads of colleagues at work, and myself, have gotten cheap iPhones out of the U.S.
Its like doing beer runs but with cheap technological gadgets.

Yeah, if it has Bale in it surely it must have some good bits in it.
I watched Rescue Dawn last night with Christian Bale in it, love that actor.
Ever since I saw that crazy guy running around a hotel in his birthday suit and a chainsaw in American Psycho 1 he got my vote. ^^
Terminator 3 was alright... first two were better of course.

I've been playing it so much and I love it.
Some of the "flaws" help the game play better I think.
Yes it would be more logical to have all the guards attacking you at once. But I already get stabbed in the back frequently during fights. It also gives you more of a chance to focus on your counter attacks and whatnot. Which are badass.
Combat is still pretty tricky sometimes against certain guards, and I tend to keep it fresh by switching from weapons a lot. I just received my throwing blades as well, good fun.
I don't mind the repetitive missions, I like getting the feeling of accomplishment when you cleared a part of the city of all objectives before going after your target. Builds up the fun for me.
The free running is awesome, like said by Schmung, only using two buttons gives you more time to think where your going rather than what your trying to do. It still amazes me sometimes, even after hours of gameplay, how Altaïr places his hands and feet sometimes while climbing onto things. The technology behind it is marvelous. I've been showing Assassins Creed HD clips off at work, they're not gamers on the most part, but they love the climbing. ^^
Getting the flags is +- for me. I've already gotten up to 94 flags in the Kingdom area, so far its been easy. But I have no freaking clue where to look for the last few. I've took glimpses at game guide maps for locations on the last flags I need... but out of the hundred located on those, I still don't know which ones I should be going for. Aaargh!
Anyhoo, so much for my impressions.

Sure, he's entitled to his opinion.
But people like him (who work for large companies like that) should remember not to bite the hand that feeds.
Reviewing can be a dangerous job. This is why Penny Arcade requests copies of the game very early on (even during development) so that they'll get an idea if the game is going to suck or not. That way they can advertise and review safely.

Nexus, you've never seen plants crawling up or hanging from walls before? Nature can often take its course on the places you'd least expect it.
As for the colours many people are commenting on. Have you people actually played Gears of War before? This brown / green colour set suits GoW perfectly. Its almost a requirement to the dark, dirty & gritty feel of the game.
I'm not saying that just because it was used in the main game, Hourences should do it too. But still, it simply suits the GoW feel.

And without the coolpaperfacetm

Hmm, I always thought if there would be a Max Payne movie... they would go for Clive Owen.
I think that was "Shoot 'em Up"
Haha, I saw that movie a few nights ago. It influenced my post quite a bit indeed. ^^ That performance, along with Sin City's just gives him a real Max Payne style to me.

360, PS3 & Nintendo DS. ^^
I love my 360 the most though.

Funny how people react about killing virtual animals, when most of us are already killing virtual people (good & bad) every day.

Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan & Elite Beat Agents on the Nintendo DS. <3
You've got loads of Japanese rhythm arcade games as well.

Brrr... mediocre as always.

Yup, agree'ing with Mazy.
Downloaded it earlier and tried it out. Loved it, a bit hard at first though.
The game got evil on me... fast. My team got crapped on because the other team had air support and a chopper flying around shooting everything to tits. But all in all, the 360's CoD 4 MP plays a lot better than the 360's CoD 3 MP.
One thing I like about this beta as well, there are not as much kids playing using their headsets like in Gears of War. Probably because they can't figure out how to get in the beta. ^^
Any Live users up for a round sometime?

09/12 04:31: Those of you posting about Chuck Norris and Starcraft being God need to recognize that you are practicing Idolatry, because the only God is the God of the Bible, and the Bible warns in Revelation 21:8 that idolaters will have their part in the Lake of burning Fire and Brimstone, so you'd better repent of your sins, stop worshipping idols, and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, because if you don't, you're going to the Lake of Fire.
lmao
These Antigamer people don't have a clue, do they?

Hope this is coming to the 360 Marketplace soon, looks like fun. I've seen another trailer somewhere that was different than the one from the website, and the gameplay looked great. Funny dialogues as well.

That changes things I guess.

Some skype log:
this guy must not do anymore reviews
[2] anonymous says: haha yeah i saw that, that guy should have his internet access revoked
Keep it up
I thought that was a bit mean, to be honest.

Its not too bad.
Although it seemed more like a nitpick rather than a general reflection of the map. dm_drift uses a great color correction effect, which isn't even mentioned in the review.
360 not outputting to HDTVs
in Off-Topic
Posted
If you've tried different TV's and cables, then yeah it seems like the HDTV chip burned out or something.
At least its a more original reason for getting a new 360 as opposed to the red ring of death.
Or... could the problem be in the HDTV settings of your Xbox 360? Have a look at this or possibly easier, going with the official Microsoft's solution.
