Haha, that's the main problem. Although it's not as abused on big maps (Caspian FTW). But yeah, that shit needs to be fixed yesterday. Use a G3 w/heavy barrel, holo, and underslung M26 dart, and you automatically become Captain Awesome. I really don't understand how stuff like that gets past quality assurance.

Microsoft expands network of TV-like ads on Xbox Live
Quote:
Microsoft revealed on Tuesday that it has expanded its lineup of advertising partners on Xbox Live, and will distribute even more TV-like ad spots across the various media apps on the platform.

Xbox Live media apps such as ESPN, Last.fm, Manga Entertainment, GameSpot, and MUZU.TV will now include 15 to 30 second video ad spots. These partners join companies like UFC, TMZ, and Crackle, which have offered these video ads since December.

Microsoft first introduced these TV-like advertisements with last year's major dashboard update, as part of a larger initiative to grow the Xbox 360 platform from a games console into a full-blown entertainment hub.

According to Microsoft, that plan is working so far, as entertainment app usage has doubled year over year for Xbox Live Gold members in the U.S.

This trend toward multimedia entertainment has also coincided with an increase in ad revenue for Microsoft, as ad spending on Xbox Live has increased by 142 percent since 2010.

I'm surprised this isn't coinciding with a price increase for Gold. Then again we have 7 months til Halo 4. Plenty of time.

Oh wow, just saw the Crysis 3 trailer/GAF thread...they're doing things that "aren't theoretically possible on consoles"? You kidding me?

Stabilize Crysis 2 at 30fps first, then show me how this is going to look like the PC version.

edit: More ads?!

That's how I feel. Although if I saw a bit of campaign that didn't contain spoilers, I'd be ok.

On a semi-related note, based on what we've seen, I'm guessing we'll see more first person cinematics in the campaign. Can't wait to see some of those, I like the little bits of that in Reach.

You haven't gotten to new game plus yet? Dude. The (first) ending. I just got it.

Dude. As someone who lives really tripped out, crazy and artistically challenging stuff... wow. Very cool.

For those who think Fez is a boring little indie platformer... Fez is not what it appears to be.

Battlefield 3, if you have a group, can provide some serious tactical action. Although probably not as much as Rainbow Six.
I play BF3 on PC and it feels more like Halo then it does R6. Guys take a whole clip half the time to die, i mean come on... They super soldiers or just soldiers? I enjoy it maybe 50% of the time. Sometimes i love it, other times i cant stand it.

Has anyone figured out you know what yet?


I wish some of the performance issues weren't present though. Needs more mech...

It's great. It and Halo are the best shooters on Xbox still. It has a steep learning curve though, you HAVE to be good with the gnasher if you don't want to be frustrated to hell and back.

Only gun I've bothered using is Gears is the Retro Lancer. I don't understand why anyone would use the regular lancer compared to it. Fire in 2 shot bursts or single fire, it has a very short kill time. I suck at third person shooters, but I mop up with that thing.

I played it for a long time, got to like 60 or so, I was on one of the gaf tags. I just haven't played in a while. Good to see it's doing well, as soon as I get a hard drive I'll be back on.

I've been too busy failing to get anti-cubes. Tonight, though, I'm going to ignore the anti-cube rooms and try to wrap up the regular cubes.

I think you'd get more of your money's worth out of Trials, but Fez is a pretty unique experience, especially if you stick with it after your first play through.

Go for Trials, it's amazing and everything about it is out in the open for you to enjoy. Fez is great too, and a very special game, but its insane amount of impossible puzzles and secrets you would never figure out by yourself kinda ruin a bit of the enjoyment, you constantly feel like you're missing out on a lot of the game and reading the solutions on the internet feels shitty.
