How is the 360 version. The 360 version is _gameplay_ identical to the PC and newer console version for xboxone and PS4. The devs made that clear in the press releases, so that's good news. Combat is a step back from the more tactical fun of DA1 but the streamlined combat in DA3 isn't a deal-breaker. It is odd that ...

It's Doom, For Better and For Worse. I make it a habit of renting games before buying them. If the game's truly worth it, I'll gladly pay the "extra" fee due to renting it first. I rented Doom3 for the Xbox, and here's my spin on it. Pros: - graphics are superb and very atmospheric. It's downright creepy at times. - E...

killer game, with som flaws. I would like to state to positive things about this title before I tell you the negitive. First of all the fighting is fluent and completely awesome. I love how you can interlink most of you combos. Death has two short scythe, and a secondary weapon: warhammers, glaives, axes. gauntlets, ar...

Both campaigns are sweet but yes, multiplayer does stink. I'm in the minority in that I buy FPS games like Call of Duty exclusively for the single player campaigns. I simply prefer gaming alone. I'm not introverted or antisocial, just an old school gamer who grew up playing that way and still prefer it. In that regard...

Great entry in WWE's long gaming history. Let me start by saying that I have not experienced any bugs, or glitches while playing this game. Just for starters let me tell you I have been playing WWF/E games since the very first one was released way back in the 80's. I currently own every WWF/E, WCW, ECW, New Japan Pro W...

Enough Reason to buy an Xbox One. First Impression: I was quite split when the new consoles were first released because of having a PS3 and 360 but know that my gamble has now paid off. Sure PS4 has better hardware but the Xbox one is not bad at all and has all the best exclusives like Titanfall, Halo, Gears of War and...

Halo series; it was good but could have been so much better. I would just like to say, I am a big halo fan.

But Halo 3, the end of the series is "good" but could have been so much better. My sho...

Not quite as good as 1, but a great follow up to the game of the year. I've played every Halo game to date including Halo 1-3, Wars, ODST, and Reach. I would rank Halo 2 as 4th best after Halo, Halo Reach, and Halo 3. Still a great game that I would recommend to any fan of the first game or the series. The Master Chief...

Excellent for any Gamer. Oddworld has made some great games in the past and this one is no exception. It happens to be my favorite out of all of the series.

Fun and/or frustration awaits you. When you see critic reviews all but outright lashing at the game to fan reviews saying it's a ton of fun and not worth the amount of negativity thrown at it, you can see that this is clearly a game that has a "try out and see" approach. Not to say Capcom has had completely flawless ru...

Highly entertaining, well designed adventure. I reserved this game for the Xb360 launch after reading good reviews from several major gaming web sites.

One of the worst games ever made. This game is quite possibly the worst game to ever come out. For one thing its incredibly hard.

You should wait until Microsoft has had time to patch all the bugs and problems with this product. Microsoft released this far before they were really ready to support this thing.

NOT a "fully functional" game "if" you buy it. Heres the thing.

Better than GTA4. Months ago when The Lost and Damned was made available for download, I purposely waited for the disc package to be made available. I'm glad I did.

Great Controller. While I remain a Playstation-loyal gamer, Microsoft certainly knows how to make really nice controllers. These controllers feel great and work great!

Not just for kids. Ok, I'll admit that I'm over 40. And I'm a chick. But I love this game! It doesn't hurt, of course, that a lot of the songs are "classic rock" that I grew up loving. (I will also say that, having played all 42 of the setlist songs, there are a few I would prefer never to hear again... .) This is...

Insanely frustrating. Like a lot of franchise based games, Shrek The Third seems rushed out in a massively hurry, leaving the game a mix of some very cool (the funny story and voicework) and dreadfully frustrating aspects (the gameplay). The game has the awful combination of having clunky controls and lots of destinati...

No longer forced to be straight and fun besides. I had been playing Oblivion and Fallout 3 when this arrived. I have been completely absorbed for two weeks exploring every possible angle, nook, and cranny. The graphics are gorgeous. The sound is good. The animation is superb. The humor is what I enjoyed second best....

great for Kinect gaming! nice wireless solution overall. I bought this because in Kinect gaming, you are jumping around a lot, and I needed to be able to still chat with my friends on the other side. The wired headsets are tethered to the game controller so having a controller in your pocket or hand is not great for ...

An exercise in spamming the A button. My experience so far has only been with the My Career/My Player portion of the game. I am yet to play any of the other modes. Stuffing an entire Spike Lee movie into a video game, not a great idea. Im pretty sure Ive worn out the A button on my controller. I would like to start ano...

Constant shuts down every 15 minutes or so. I had to return mine for replacement due to constant shuts down every 15 minutes or so. Set up was smooth but as soon as I started to download games and apps, I can feel the heat from console but no fan noise at all. I even set it up vertically next to the fan but to no ava...
