March 2007 Halo Happy?

Mar 31st 2006 8:10PM on Joystiq Xbox

jon, #16, while I agree with you that everyone does love H2 for it's groundbreaking multiplayer, can you really say that Battlefield 2 multiplayer for the 360 is better? Don't get me wrong, it's pretty fun, but it is far from a better multiplayer. In fact, the only thing that BF2 has going for it over H2 is that there are no cheaters. yet.

BF2MC demo-lishes XBLM

the demo is pretty fun, but the controls DO suck... left trigger to duck, X button to chat(leaving right thumb off of thumbstick), they should have just used the halo controls.

Black in back (compatibility update)

how about killing the glitch that slows down online play on the "backwash" map on halo 2? that would be convenient. Everyone in the game with a 360 complains about it.

Grand Theft Ping Pong hands-on

Mar 29th 2006 9:23PM on Joystiq Xbox

I can't see myself or anyone else spending $60 on this. Maybe it could succeed as an high-end XBLA title, but that's it. Bad move, rockstar.

Phony PS3 screenshot busted?

SlingPlayer Mobile reviewed

so is it better than orb or not? also, why is there no link to the review?

Blazing Angels demo takes off

Mar 22nd 2006 11:32PM on Joystiq Xbox

don't sleep on the Ridge Racer 6 demo either, I ended up buying it! It's great! I'll report back after trying Blazing Angels tonight.

Thank god the developers are taking advantage of the downloadable demo system. It is a win-win situation for all involved:

1. Saves gamers time and money by not having to buy OXM for a demo disc.

2. Gamers will end up buying games they didn't plan on buying (take me for example with RR6)resulting in higher sales figures

3. Gamers have an alternative to playing Xbox Live Arcade games and regular 360 titles

Xbox exec on PS3: "1080p... will be basically impossible"

Mar 22nd 2006 1:39PM on Joystiq

"Henson also added that the Xbox team has considered adding video streaming capabilities for non-Media Center users"

This deserves it's own post. Many people are pretty angry about the lack of streaming video (pc to 360) support for regular XP users.

Browser-based 3D FPS game

Mar 17th 2006 12:13PM on Joystiq

I managed to find my way out of the level, by falling into some abyss with no way out. So, its a bit buggy, but I could see myself having fun with this game for its multiplayer capabilities. The visuals are not bad, but nowhere near identical to halo. Has anyone successfully entered a multiplayer game?

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
