• Picked up Final Fantasy XIII for X360 the other day for £17.99, so been playing that a bit. I like it so far, haven't had time to play it much, the graphics are amazing, and the playing style like X2, which isn't too bad in XIII (wasn't executed well in X2 IMO). So far, I prefer X and X2 over it though.

Been playing Final Fantasy XIII a bit more since my last post, and now that I'm past the initial tutorials and set up cutscenes it's turning into a really good game. And yes, it also reminds me of X2 :)

That cloud looks like a face!

I'm simple minded :(

P.S. Only 48 minutes left of today, post a photo!

I like the picture of apples :)

I sound like a child :eek:

Your last comments about Batman: Arkham Asylum and Red Dead Redemption made me laugh, wonder where you got that idea from ;)

Well in the last month or two, I've bought a fair few games.

I bought Split Second and Blur on the same day, played Split Second first and completed the single player story overnight basically. Only 465G though, so a bit more to do there.

Then straight on to Blur the next day, which I ran through pretty fast too. I just can't get enough of racing games, love new ones but they never seem to be worth a replay as opposed to action. 455G on Blur.

Then I bought Assassin's Creed 2, Final Fantasy XIII and Army of Two: 40th Day from ShopTo of course. Played Assassin's Creed 2 first and truly believe it's one of the best games I've ever played. Took me approximately 5 days to get to 1000G I believe, awesome. Also will more than likely be getting the collector's edition of Brotherhood, can't wait for November.

Next I put in Final Fantasy XIII, but really did not enjoy it. So many cutscenes I feel like a child. At one point I watched a really long cutscenes, was allowed control to run in a straight line across a bridge, then triggered another cutscene. It just frustrated me. So I put in Army of Two: 40th Day to relieve me. 15G on FFXIII btw.

Love Army of Two:40th Day, played though the story the first day. Then played through it again the next day. 455G so far, but plan to do more, with more play throughs on Coop hopefully plus I need to get the collectables.

Since then I decided to catch up some missing gamerscore on games I didn't thouroughly play the first time (as if you haven't guessed from this post so far!) So I finally got 100% on Red Dead Redemption after being on 96% for a few months, which carried a nice 100G to take my total to 750G on it which is an okay result.

Then put in Bayonetta since on my first play through I got to the penultimate level, died, turned off the 360 and never played the game again. But anyway I finally completed that too, only 455G though which is a bit of a disappointing score.

On a similar story, when Poison Ivy killed me on Batman: Arkham Asylum, I switched it off and didn't play it for 10 months. Then yesterday I finally got around to completing it on Normal difficulting and collecting all the collectables, so I'm up to 665G on that, which is more acceptable than Bayonetta in my opinion.

Next games on the list to play are more probably Wet and Riddick: Dark Athena which I have yet to play. I might just buy Just Cause 2 or maybe even Mafia II though, so who knows what I'll be doing next. Let me know what I should do next :)

Highlighted all the game names the first time I mentioned them so you can see what this ramble is about, can you tell I'm bored?

By the way, I'm not obsessed by gamerscore as this post may seem, I just like to have a high percentage completion on games, and gamerscore reflects this.

I'm a completionist, just a lazy one.

Haha no, we're joint bottom Diablo :D

Yep, I forgot about it and left my 3 united players in my team over the weekend. Lost out on about 10 points. >.<

The match day isn't over, Uniteds game tomorrow will still add points to your total, thankfully since I'm joint bottom :rolleyes:

It's just not the same. And that bit at the start about it being an internationally acclaimed hit is just false advertising imo. If they were showing reruns of the real Top Gear then that would be ok, but it's a whole new version so it's not applicable.

:birthday: Hope you have a good day! :D

:birthday: Have a good one!

Since I've noticed a lot of chatter about this forming in the announce thread, I thought I'd make it's own thread here so people don't miss it.

Atari Shifts Test Drive® Unlimited 2 Into First Quarter 2011; New Beta Dates Announced Soon

 

Today we have an announcement pertaining to the release schedule for the highly anticipated Test Drive® Unlimited 2. Please see the following announcement for the details on the change in schedule and beta program:

 

Dear TDU2 Community and fans,

Eden and Atari are announcing today that the release date of Test Drive Unlimited 2 is being moved back to Q1 2011. We wanted to take some time to talk to you specifically, our community and fans, and explain why this is and what it means for you.

As we are sure you are aware, TDU2 is a highly ambitious game and also very big. Since locking down the final features, some months ago, we have been busy getting the bugs out of the game, polishing all of the features to make the game as fun as possible, and ensuring that we deliver a robust and reliable online service from the day we go live. We’re at the point now where we have a pretty solid game, which is fun and could be launched shortly. However, with a few extra months of polish it could be even better.

We know that this delay will come as a disappointment to many of you but we hope that you will understand the benefits of taking the time to get this right, because it now gives us more time to listen and respond to feedback from the Beta program. We will be announcing the new Beta dates shortly, as well as revealing exclusive Beta tester rewards, as a thank you for their patience and continuing support.

Thank you,

The Test Drive Unlimited 2 Team

Voted for minime831 just because it's so simple and yet looks very nice :)

:welcome: :)

All you really need to do is watch Match of the Day and make sure you check upcoming fixtures, then swap out your bench for who's playing against weak teams to maximise points :)

I think you have to wait till January. Not too sure though.

You can change as many as you like but it removes points from your total.

You have 1 or 2 free transfers a week so that should do you just fine if anyone gets injured :)

Edit: Also, I joined the league :)

Anything else you want to know, just ask.

:welcome: :)

Really like this idea, good luck with it, will be interesting to see the finished gallery in just under a year :)

Yellow and orange SLR, those were the days :p

In :D

Based on Myself, The Queen, Pressurized and Dark Stealth's guessing :p

We missed out a lot! Plus I typed it from what people were speaking, so the spelling on ones I didn't know is a bit dodgy.

Left to Right, Top to Bottom.

Good luck everyone, especially you Mike, lots of work for you :p

It's good to see PotW back on TDU Central :D

How many can you name?

Good Luck :)

P.S. This is the first thing I've posted in ages, so really hope it's not a repost! :p
