My main benefit from the new console was upgrading my 120GB HDD to 250GB and the wireless network card. Otherwise, I could careless about the new 360.

Oh, I have a wireless adapter, and my 120GB HD is doing fine for me so far, even installing the games I play the most to it. But I also don't play the CoDs for the campaign, so that's a lot of save data I'm not using.

That's unfortunate b/c it's been the best part of the CoD games, easily.
PC? Is it free? I've been playing this League of Legends game occasionally on the PC (which is free). It's like DotA from Warcraft 3 but more awesome lol.

Lol, I barely play it (maybe twice a week for 2-3 hrs each time). It's not a big deal since I have 2 other 360's but just sucks b/c all my data is on the S and you can't transfer it backwards.
Seems like the GPU gave out on me (console was abnormally warm after performing some troubleshooting). Screen went gray while I was playing Black Ops campaign. Luckily, I just made a checkpoint
Can't you use a data transfer cable. Anyways that sucks and now you have me worried about my 360's shelf life LOL. Do you normally keep yours standing up or on its side? As of late I put mine in the TV stand so it has to lay down and I'm hoping it won't affect the console.

Not backwards to the older 360's, nope. It happens. I'm not really that concerned about it. It was just a freak accident. The console gets plenty of airflow. That's the only thing that should concern you. I also keep it laying down. I feel like standing it vertically gives it better chances of falling and breaking.

Meh, it doesn't hold my attention long enough. If they took out all the "fight the endless waves of enemies" crap that they throw in maybe I would like it more. I love the levels where you have to, like, be all sneaky and crawl through the grass and stuff like that. I don't like having to take a million hits running from one tree to another because I have to progress far enough before they stop sending waves of enemies at me. Especially because I'll only play on Veteran. I loved the co-op "mini games" thing on MW2.

Vindictus is PC and free but with microtransactions if you want to buy stat boosting undies or extra tokens for going on missions. Its completely not necessary to buy anything. I have gotten to the level cap without paying a cent. I wouldn't even call it a MMO, its more like a co-op game were you are working with small teams to defeat dungeons and bosses. There is no massive world to explore nor is there PvP yet, but i hear that is coming.
how is it over wifi? having problems with trying to play uncharted online, stupid ps3 won't connect for it. can surf the store fine though

Same thing as running w/ CAT5 ethernet. I didn't have any issues w/ my PS3 connecting wirelessly when I had it.
Oh I agree that certain missions are much much more enjoyable than others but Black Ops SP > MP imo. Whenever they do release another CoD, I'm hoping that it's IW that's in control and not Treyarch.

The part that's bolded is why I'm confused... you DO realize that Black Ops is Treyarch, right?
I haven't tried the campaign of this one yet. I played zombies once or twice but I didn't like it. Wager matches are the best! "Sticks and Stones" and "One in the Chamber" FTW!!

I know it was made by Treyarch, that's exactly why I don't like it. I don't like Zombies either so don't feel too bad about that. I played One in the Chamber, I liked it a lot. I'm not too fond of the idea that I rack up all my cash then if someone hawk's me then I lose it all.

Gun Game is the best one! Sticks and Stones I think is dumb cause the best strategy is to just stab people. You never even have to use the crossbow or the shot from the knife.

I still have yet to revive someone with a Ballistic Knife.

Ok. I missed the whole you not liking it thing. I saw that you liked campaign better than multiplayer and then got confused. I agree about wanting IW to make the next, but I'm not sure that's going to happen.
You get more points using the ballistic knife or crossbow. Plus, I get much more satisfication sticking someone with a shot from my crossbow than I do stabbing them. Stabbing is only beneficial if you're in really close-quarters.
To avoid the hatchet... just keep running back and forth! Don't stop moving. Left-right-left-right. It's very hard to hit someone with a hatchet that's running around like crazy.

Ya I know you get more points for the bow and ballistic knife, but you can kill like three times as more people making up for lower points when you just roll around stabbing people. lol.

I'm currently playing Battlefield Bad Company 2, considering buying BFBC2 Vietnam, avoiding Black Ops as much as possible, waiting on Crysis 2, and waiting on Guild Wars 2 after that. I think I'll be set as far as games go for a while.
If you play on xbox add my gamertag:shawn1201.
I'm always up for some BFBC2, oh yea and the Vietnam pack is well worth it.

Nope, PC gamer, sorry.
I'm all about graphics, so building monster machines and knocking graphics up all the way is almost a must for me. Can't really do that with an Xbox. :/

The only current gen console I have is XBox 360, looking to get a PS3 whenever I decide I need a Blu-Ray player. I mostly play fighters and RPG, but I'll play about anything if it's good.
The only game I'm playing on my phone at the moment is Angry Birds.

Sounds like you just need to get better with the crossbow =p That's where most of my kills are in S&S and, unless I get a hatchet at the end of the game, I'm typically in the money, if not first place.
