    Doing nothing of importance.

    Good idea man. Don't overwhelm yourself... I've made that mistake one too many times. I've spent more time trying to decide what game to play that I'd like to admit... Flipping a coin, rolling a die, asking a friend.. I've used every method I can think of, and some I probably wouldn't have even thought of normally. Luckily I just got sucked back into Final Fantasy X again, so that won't be much of a problem, but when I'm bouncing from game to game (especially on my PSP for some reason), it's pretty bad.

    The lesson: Play one game at a time. If you can help it, don't get any new games until you need some.

    You held off buying RDR because you were waiting for the price to come down... even though you don't yet have an Xbox?

    Get Batman, it was the best game that came out last year. Truly amazing.

    Also, Black Ops is pretty amazing. I do think that they made some bad decisions and changed some things (knifing is broken, claymores cant be beaten, RC car is way too powerful, etc.) but overall it is much better than I thought it would be.

    A solid 8.5 or 9 outta 10.

    Early copies also get out of course.. and hacking if he is into that thing.

    Also pgboy, there is such a thing as Double Posting.. You seem quite good at continually doing it. Please stop.

    Soo anyone pickin up Black Ops tomorrow?

    My local GAME store asked me if I wanted to come to the midnight launch and I was all like 'yeeeeaaahhhhh..... no'

    But I'll pick it up after school. Hardened edition for added Zombie goodness :D

    I'll need some gamertags though guys, mine is Hmar9333

    Crap... I totally forgot about that Hardened edition... Otherwise I probably would have gotten it too... :(

    Either way, I'm definitely getting it tomorrow, although I'm not sure if I'll be online at all. I'm Underoath709, although I might be playing online through a friend's gamertag, if at all. Just add me anyway, I'm hoping to get my Xbox back by Friday.

    And I wanted to go to midnight release despite the lack of an Xbox, and I got an immediate no from my parents. :(

    Uum, Batman? No. Uncharted 2. Ding-ding-ding!

    I knew the RC Car would be overpowered and it would be nearly impossible to avoid getting hit by one way to often. They removed quick-scoping which I'm kinda glad for. And knifing is broken?

    I really don't think the RC car is going to be overpowered. Seriously, how hard is it to jump onto a box or something to avoid it. Also, stairs.

    So Black Ops has turned into one giant game of "the floor is made of lava!" and everyone has to spend the entire match upstairs to avoid rapid-remote-expansion of all their internal organs by some camping noob with a falsetto rap fetish.

    Probably, except they have secretly added another kill streak reward: R/C planes.

    You're joking right? That would be rediculous.

    Though in BFBC2 it was fun to strap C4 to UAV's (those little mini copters) and blow the shit out of hiding people. lol

    Yea I am joking, I just think it's funny that everyone is screaming unfair without playing the game yet. IMO, the fact that controlling the R/C car will leave the player completely open will mean that a lot of the time, using it will backfire. I assume you'll also be able to shoot it, and I've heard there will also be a timer on it, so it'll be harder to drive it miles round the map to come up behind people.
    Anddd picking the R/C car will mean you don't get a UAV.

    I admit it'll be annoying sometimes, but I really don't think it'll massively overpowered.

    In my opinion the CoD games aren't known for their great balance anyway, so the chance of anything being overpowered is just as good as ever.

    Yeah I agree, I don't think it's going to be that big of a deal. And UAV will always undoubably be the most useful first tier KS award.
