Well, Sky Player for the Xbox 360 was meant to be available today.

However, there have been problems.

Hopefully they'll hurry the fuck up.

The Barret already is the weakest sniper in the game in terms of people who use it

Also the MP44 sucks ass, worst gun on that game, I'd rather have an MP7.

I believe in one of the pieces of footage shown by Infinity Ward, the default 'Sniper' class contains a Barrett .50 Cal. Again, I'm only going by what I've heard and read, as I don't watch many of the pieces of MW2 footage.

None of the guns are terrible in Call of Duty 4. They all have their own pros and cons. Yes, even the M16. The MP44 has the least aim drift, for example. The G36c has the least sway (which makes it ideal with an ACOG), and so on.

I'm not trying to attack you. I'm only voicing my opinion, so I hope you don't take any of this the wrong way.

Watch the first 60 seconds of that. Note the Rank (3), and then look when he scrolls down to the 'Scout Sniper'. It contains a Barrett. I know, it's not the full game, but that's what I'm going by at the moment.

I was under the impression you was referring to Call of Duty 4 when you stated this. I have no idea at all for Modern Warfare 2.

M16 is overpowered with stopping power and a red dot sight. So pretty much instant kill. I know that all the guns have their pros and cons, but I can't actually find any with the MP44,, this is myself however so others may.

No worries. Unlike most people here I am not a whiny bitch.

I re-read my initial post, and I can see what you mean. I apologise for not being very clear in my explanation, or definition for the game I was talking about. I'm glad to see you're not a whiny bitch, as you're actually one of the few users on this site I have respect for.

Someone I know gave me a code for the Left 4 Dead 2 demo. It's a pre-order bonus, but I never even considered pre-ordering. Still, I did take the time to upload some gameplay footage to YouTube, for anyone who is interested. Link. Enjoy!

This update does not include the new social media features, such as Twitter, Facebook, and Last.fm, nor the new Zune Video Marketplace. This update merely updates the console to allow the current Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter to support the WPA2 wireless standard.

--------------------

Apparently the new Forza 3 super elite bundles, and possibly the MW2 bundles have new motherboards amongst some other things. Forza 3 pack Xbox 360 Elite new motherboard, new DVD drive, GPU heat pipe removed. Hopefully and should cut down RRoD.

The Ballad of Gay Tony reviews are starting to poor in and it is doing amazing.

G4TV - 5/5
IGN - 9.2

Also, online play will be free all weekend for GTAIV, The Lost and the Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony. If you didn't like GTAIV, the Ballad of Gay Tony should be a game you should look into. It is what GTAIV should have been.

Well, finally done it. Got all the achievements in Halo 3. Last achievement I got was Post Mortem, and the hardest part about that was getting on Orbital. Took about ten plays to get it.

I got Forza 3 today. The Collector's Edition of it, actually. It's a great game so far. Really enjoying it.

It's GTAIV of course it will get good reviews because they know that if they criticise it, lots of whiny prepubescent kids will complain untill their balls drop.

The Lost and the Damned was pretty good and they're saying this is better. Ratings are pretty useless anyway but I think the game looks worth trying out.

Call me what you will but every GTA since Vice City has been complete crap. Vice City didn't take itself seriously and after it, Rockstar started to pile EVERYTHING they could think of into them. San Andreas failed to me because of the whole food and weight thing. 4 failed to me because of all the pointless crap they stuck in there like the internet cafes.

Give me Saints Row anyday.

Saints Row got boring and dull very quickly. GTA IV on the other hand I really really like.

Then we are two different. It was the other way around for me. I just loved the stupidity of Saints Row.

I like both the Saints Row and Grand Theft Auto series. I enjoy all sandbox games, and I don't bias from one to the other. San Andreas was my favorite game in the series, as it actually had so much content in my eyes. IV was good, but it was too realistic to be classed as a Grand Theft Auto game IMO.

Saints Row has always been over the top, mindless idiocy. And that's what I love about it.

When it comes to sandbox games, I'll take Crackdown any day. Crackdown 2 is going to be a day 1 purchase for me.

I didn't realize Ballad of Gay Tony was coming out tomorrow. Is it too much to hope that it'll be available at midnight exactly?

Got Ballad of Gay Tony this morning, pretty good for what I played but the highlight so far is a TV-Show called Princess Robot Bubblegum. Anyone who has the DLC, you have to watch it. It's fucking hilarious.

So many games I want, so little money to spend.

Fallout 3 Game of The Year Edition
Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City
Borderlands
Left 4 Dead 2
Modern Warfare 2

There is so many big titles coming out this holiday season, as I'm sure you're all aware. Too many for my liking. It's even more annoying that I hardly play my Xbox any more because of uni, but I'm going to have to get my hands on some of the games I listed.

I saw one of my mates playing the Left 4 Dead 2 demo, and I even got a shot. It was the PC version though, but it still feels like it has a lot more to it than the first game. I was worried that it would feel more like an expansion than an entire new game, but from what I've played I'm rather pleased by it.

I don't quite understand what you are trying to say. Does what matter? The fact that I saw a Left 4 Dead 2 demo? Explain.

I finished The Ballad of Gay Tony today. It was about 1000 times more interesting than The Lost and the Damned, mostly because Luis and the nightclub story backdrop was that much more intriguing than Johnny and the motorcycle gang story. In fact I'd go as far to say that Luis would have been a better main character to center around than Niko for the entire GTA4 game if they had decided to build up the story differently.

The way I see it, as long as I enjoy it (and it's batshit insane amounts of fun), it doesn't matter to me if a sequel feels like an expansion pack or not.
