I just hope they put more into Halo 3 single player campaign than they did in Halo 2. That game was a bomb in my opinion unless you play online. I played to about the middle of the game, but then I grew tired of playing as the Arbiter. Halo was so nice because it was such a shoot em up game. There was no sneaking around involved, just run and gun. Halo 2 got too repetitive for me. Hopefully they will inprove on this in Halo 3, but I'm not as excited as I used to be about Halo anymore. Guess I'll just have to wait and see once they release the game.

I prefer the DS as well. I don't really judge games strictly by graphics, or whether or not my handheld can play movies and all that extra stuff. Truth is, I look more for interactive and different. DS has been much more enjoyable for me than my PSP, mainly because I have a PS2 already, and the PSP looks and play almost the same. DS metroid was a very fun game, and I can't wait until the Zelda games come out. The future for the DS is going to be nice, but the PSP will be more of the same I think.

I've been reading alot about the Halo Wars game that will be coming out. It looks really cool. I don't know much about it other than its a strategy game, but I've been looking at screenshots of it in a few of my gaming magazines. Not sure exactly how the game is going to play, but I think you control like 5 Spartans and the rest are marines. I can't wait to see what all the game has to offer.

I actually found that the MP5 at distance is all about 1 shot bursts for me. I used to take the ak47 approach and use around 3 shot bursts, but that would never work most of the time. By using 1 shot bursts, I was able to control the shots much better and hit my targets much more. I actually made a few headshots at long A from pit with an mp5, which is extremely hard for me to do. I still have no luck with TMP or anything like that, but I was able to figure out the P90 at distance. I found that doing 3 to 5 shot bursts from the waist up works fairly well. I can't make headshots most of the time, but I can still get the kills none the less. Someone let me know if these techniques work for you as well. As for me, I'm going to continue experimenting with them as well and see if I can pick up on any new weapons.

Toontown is supposed to be a kids game, but I am surprised how many older people play it, including myself. I bought the game for my sister a while back so she could have a fun kids game to play, but I found myself playing it more than she was. I don't know what it is about that game, but it seems to appeal to many people of different ages. I had to stop playing it myself, otherwise I would problably have a second life as a TOON!

Thank you for your input, however, recoil is not the case with SMG's in CS. Unlike the M4 or AK, which are very powerful at long range, SMG's tend to not be as powerful or accurate. They work very well for close range, but I can shoot all day at someone long range with a SMG and not hit them at all.

Hi I have been playing counter-strike for about two years now, but I'm still having trouble using SMG's at long range. Some of the guns that I really need some help on are the MP5, TMP and Mac-10. I play CS: Source now, but I think any tips given will accomodate Source and 1.6 players. I have seen some people who are really good in long range battles with SMGs, so there is obviously a technique to shooting them. If any of you have any good techniques or tips, please post them here. My clan scrims all the time, and usually we start them off by rushing with MP5's or something. Knowing how to use them long range will help me out tremendously.

I like the PS3. I thought the graphics are very awesome on my friends HDTV. I personally wasn't happy with the TVs set up at EB Games and Gamestop. The edges of the games were very jagged and the textures looked a little blurry. He has a 360 and PS3 connected to this 720 HD tv, and the PS3 definitely looked crisper. Graphics wise I think both consoles are going to be neck and neck, but the PS3 is problably going to always be slightly more faster than the 360. The main thing I love about the PS3 is it's processing capabilities. Lots of games on the 360 tend to have FPS problems when there is tons of stuff happening at one time. However, we were playing Resistance: Fall of Man on the PS3 with 40 people online at one time and there was not a hint of lag. The game also looked amazing, far better than anything I had seen on the 360 at the time. I think the PS3 has faster processing power, so combine that with the GPU and fast ram and you have a nice gaming system. Give all the systems time. The future holds great things for all of them I think.

I really enjoyed Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic. The story is cool and the game is really addicting. If you like star wars, you'll love the different paths you can take in the game. The game allows you to choose your own destiny, whether you want to be good or dark, depending on decisions you make throughout the game. It's not very hard to get into, and you can play it for hours on end and not get bored. The more stuff you do in the game, the stronger you become. Eventually you get to make your own custom weapons, like a double bladed lightsaber. Maybe you'll like the game, maybe not. Just depends on what you're into as far as RPGs.

Guitar Hero for me. I love getting the false sense that I can actually play guitar.

I just got my wii, and I am loving it. The game I'm currently playing is Call of Duty 3. So far I am loving the new controller for the wii. When you run, you actually feel like your running through the controller. Aiming is very fun and actually works quite well. I used to hate when I got stuck around corners in shooting games and had to rely on a thumbstick to turn around. With the wii, I was able to maneuver around corners very smoothly and am able to shoot much more accurately than before. The graphics are decent, but the wii isn't about the graphics wars going on currently. The thing they are aiming more towards is being able to interact more in games. They went above and beyond in my opinion. The wii is very unique, and is definitely something new other than the same old button smash games we've all come to love. Hopefully some of you will go and try it out, definitely give it a chance.

I'd like to live in the Zelda world. I grew up playing Zelda games. I really enjoy the game music and the characters are really neat. Whenever I woul want to travel somewhere, I could ride my horse everywhere. Also if I ever get picked on by anybody, I could beat them up with my sword and what not. It's a magical world, and being able to live in the forest from Ocarina of time would be really awesome.

Okay, I've found a glitch in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivioin that lets you make unlimited money, quickly. I know some people don't like cheaters, but I thought I'd share it anyways. When you are searching for a cure to Vampirism, you will do a mission for a count. I'm not going to give the story details, but once you complete the mission he will give you 1000 reward. The glitch is that if you talk to him before he walks off you can still talk about the 'reward'. It is grey so he doesn't have anything new to say, but he will give you 1000 ever time you talk about the 'reward'. I just kept clicking 'a' over and over, and made 100,000 in about a minute. I didn't go into the millions becuase it would take too much fun out of the game. I don't know if you can continue to speak to him at a later date and still bring up the reward.

A while back I decided I wanted to trade in my Gamecube and all oy games so I could put the money towards my Xbox 360. I think I had the gamecube, 6 used games, and 2 controllers. I got 95 dollars including everything from ebgames. This was a lot to me, mainly because all the games I had were previously used games that i bought for less than 15 dollars each. I figure I prolly got around 50 to 60 for the console, and the rest for my games. They rteated me farily well I think.

Yeah I agree, it's a cool idea, but there are just too many idiots who play games. I'd love for games to become much more interactive in some way though. The wii is already heading in that direction I think, which is why I'm problably going to buy one. Maybe in the future they will be able to record real life environments and implement them into games somehow.
