MS owns Rare now, but the game was made on Nintendo hardware and Nintendo and Rare no longer have the Bond license. It's all f*cked up. But what it really all boils down to is money.

For me, Goldeneye was - and still is - the best FPS to ever be on a  console. Just the thought of going back to it and being able to play  it online is enough. Instant buy if it happens. I can't get my head round the fact that 11 years have past. That is f*cking scary. :(

Yup awesome game but I played it on the N64 recently and it ain't ages well at all, although it's still good it's not as good as I remembered, and the graphics are DODGY, people have square heads and sh!t  :D

I still love the Unreal Tournament games and they have to be up their for the best FPS game ever.

Paul i understand you like the XBox i really do, as a concole yes it's good, the market place is quite awsome
but XBox live is full of some of the most narrow minded Bigots on the planet, Sexist Racist and just some generally dumb people, now i only game with people that are on my friends list but i have heard some absolutely disgusting language towards some people, not myself but it just makes you feel plain sick.

Alas its the same online everywhere, that's why I never use the mic when I play online.

Being called a bitch by a 15 year old 9 stone American in a Metallica t-shirt ain't my idea of fun.

Incidentally I haven't played much Xbox for the past couple of weeks as I am back playing that legalised form of crack known as World of Warcraft. :O

I hadn't played it for two years but was bored one day and decided to give it a go.

I know what you mean mate, you do get some muppets online, depends on which games you play, you always get mouthy little Americans on Halo and some idiots on COD but it's only every so often, all you do is ignore them in your feedback.

I agree their are fools online but it's not as bad as you say, if you start shouting back it just makes things worst, just turn the volume down on the headset and ignore it  :;):

Just letting you lads know...

The CALL of DUTY 4 Patch Update: (1.1 76) was released earlier today. So far so good as well...

The new Kill Cams are sweet btw! Remains to be seen how the 'other' issues pan out, but like i said - things are running well atm.

I generally don't talk much on Live. It's not because I can't take abuse. If anyone gives me it, they usually get torn to bits and there isn't much of an argument. These two things are down to one thing: my accent. Most of the times Americans don't know what it is. They either think I'm German, English, Scottish (close) and the best one yet, Spanish. How they deduced Spanish is mind blowing.

But this is how I make complete w@nkers out of them and show them up to be the thick idiots they are. I once told a group of them my accent was Irish. They laughed and said "that's the weirdest Irish accent I ever heard!" Yep. So I put on my best Leprechaun accent and they accepted it. Someone should tell the majority of the population of America that nobody in Ireland sounds like a Lucky Charms advertisement. Apart from Graham Norton.

I generally like a bit of harmless verbal banter on Live, so long as I'm getting a laugh. But like the other night, I sat and listened to two Americans try to win an online fight because according to one fella, he'd win the offline fight because he can "bench press over 200 lb." Great. I just laughed at him down the sound.

Bioshock is a great game and gorgeous looking, but I object to paying for a game that has no online and no replay value.

...you mean there's no racing in it!  :p


I have to say, that BIOSHOCK was an amazing piece of entertainment. Although probably best suited for a couple of run throughs. It wasn't a game i could imagine playing again and again. Maybe in a few months time or so - But for a tenner mate...thats a steal! And if you certainly are going to put it on ebay for a similar amount - i should want to snap your hand off meself! Give us a PM if you decide to.
