Prototype is getting hard...

well it sure as hell cant be as easy as spiderman 2 was on my friends gamecube.

I quite fancy a racing game, but I don't really follow the genre, so don't know anything good. Recommendations?

I don't recall getting Forza with my 360.

PGR4 has to be one of the best racing games on the 360, I highly reccomend that.

Does that play more arcade style or racing simulation style?

PGR and Forza are the best racing games available on the 360. Forza 3 is coming out in October so I would definitely hold out on that instead of getting Forza 2. PGR is more arcade and Forza racing sim.

I'll pick PGR up, then. I was after an arcade anyway, waiting for GT5 to come out for a sim.

You might prefer Forza 3. The Forza games tend to offer a lot more depth than the PGR games and you will be waiting until 2010 to play a sim with GT5 where as Forza 3 is coming this fall. Up to you though, perhaps rent it.

Oh and to that lifeofmystery or whatever the hell your name is Forza cam bundled with the 360 a couple years back for a Holiday bundle. It doesn't come standard with every 360.

Eh, PGR is only £10 on Play, I'll get that for now, get Forza later if I get bored of it.

Don't bother with Forza or PGR just yet. Get Burnout Paradise. It's an arcade racing game and is well supported with DLC and the like. I personally enjoyed it more than PGR so I'd recommend it. Unless you got it on the PS3 already...

Grid and Dirt are pretty good too.

Oh sure we'll come over to your house and call Microsoft for you. Or better yet, we'll come over and fix it right on the spot. The fuck do you expect us to do? We're on the internet, and you have a hardware issue. There is absolutely nothing we can do for you besides say "Call Microsoft".

That being said, 2 red rings means you probably have it in a cabinet or something stupid like that. Make sure the power supply and the console vents are fully exposed to at least 10 inches of air on all sides. All 2 red lights is, is an overheating error, so just proper care should solve it.

Oh and run all games installed if you're really paranoid. That cuts down on the heat coming from the disc tray.

I think that Burnout Revenge is better just because you're not constantly driving to the start of a new race. That's just time consuming and after awhile it gets boring. IDK, I just had more fun on Revenge.

Also I just wanted to let BBM see that my level icon has changed again. Reason being, the last two times I've leveled, BBM has been there to tell me how weird it looks when it changes. Well here I am again saying LOOK AT IT!

All righty. It has nearly been a week or so since the release of [Prototype] and I have been looking at it. I am unsure whether to get it as it has gotten an 8.5 on Gamespot, and a 7.5 on IGN. I don't want to waste my money on a mediocre game that doesn't last me long enough.

If not [Prototype] then can you suggest a game that I don't already have or played. Kthzbai.

Prototype's worth at least a rent. I bought it and I'm still having fun on it after a few days of playing. If not Prototype, I've been hearing good things about Red Faction Guerrilla.

Hmmm, there's some mysterious imposter in this thread.

I can feel it.

Can anyone comment on how good Burnout Paradise is? I'm gonna trade Left 4 Dead for that and two other games.

I like burnout 3 on Xbox, so is this one similar?

Yes and no. It's a more similar to Burnout Revenge (see: shortcuts) but it still has the speed, the frenetic racing, and the takedowns that have kept in the series since Burnout 3.

It's got no crash mode worth mentioning, which sucks, but on the other hand it's free roaming with a massive and beautifully crafted city, and shitloads of shortcuts and jumps and things.
Oh and the inclusion of a classical soundtrack as well as the generic regular music was sublime.

It's not as good as Burnout 3, but it's a more than worthy successor. If I could give the last few main burnout games percentage ratings, it'd be something like this:

Burnout 3 ----------- 94%
Burnout Revenge - 90%
Burnout Paradise - 89%

While I think the free-roaming city is amazing, the graphics are glorious, the cars are fast, the missions were addictive etc etc, the lack of crash mode just drags it down.

Still, when you can get it for 12 quid it's more than worth it.

I think most reviews are hitting at around the 8.0 mark. For me, I want it, but I'm going to wait until it hits budget prices. Of course, take that advice as you will, as that's my mentality for 95% of the games I play.

Why wouldn't we let him join? He owns a 360 and wants to discuss and enjoy it here. Since when are you a head honcho here trying to decide who gets in and who doesn't? If you simply click his profile he talks about his gamertag, his gamerscore, what games he has, etc.
