On the last castle in Twilight Princess now nearly completed it, the other Zeldas took me months to complete, Ocrina of Time, andWindwakers.
As far as TP goes its reletivly easy compared to them two.
When Ive finished it Ill try and complete Majora's Mask.

Jon, its class mate, i'm half way through it now. Building an empire is really good, it begins soon after the start of the game.

Just playing Half Life 2 as well on PC - i've just got to where you first get the gravity gun. Tell you what, that trek on the boat was gredgery. It felt like you were trawling through France - devoid of life and full of sh!t! I hope the game picks up from here.........

Played on my mates wii yesterday, I was expecting to leave his house wanting one but I was dispointed, the controls frustrated the fook out of me and I didn't realise their was no online play.

Wii sports is an amazing game though

Anyone elses 360 locking up (3 red lights)? its done it twice now, on both occasions laying flat. Since standing it up (and perhaps more importantly) assigning its own plug socket, as opposed to one of 4 on an extension...it hasnt done it since. Psu getting overheated? after 3 hours play? surely not....any thoughts. (only happened while playing Viva Pinata) which ive also heard rumours of....bottom line is: Do i need a replacement, or is this the way it is? thanks.

Got me mates 360 at the min and have been playing it quite a lot, trying out all of the games.

Pro Evo 6 - while its great to be able to play my mates online, i'm really disappointed with the actual game. The graphics arn't that great and the gameplay pales in comparision to the PS2 version. Must try harder.

Call of Duty 3 - graphically excellent, but it plays far too much like the PS2 version of COD2. Maybe i'm stuck in the past, but I still think COD2 on PC is better than the current version (bring on 4, made by Infinity Ward again!).

Gear of War - Oh. My. God. Words cannot describe my delight and surprise at this game. I was under a huge impression that this would be an FPS, but it has much more in common with Kill Switch (some might not know that one!). What a game. Even on my standard TV, the graphics are simply phenominal and a close up kill with the chainsaw is great!!

Others - Tiger Woods 07, Test Drive, Splinter Cell - hardly mindblowing.

After months of actually wanting one, now having had a try i'm not as blown away as I thought i'd be. Admittedly, i'm only playing on a standard def telly, but apart from GOW i've not been as impressed as I thought. I was quite torn for a time over whether to purchase a 360 or PS3 but my lukewarm reception with the first next-gen console has given me the patience to wait a little bit until after the PS3 launch (when the second wave of games are coming through, having been out in America and Japan for a year) and see what happens.

call the customer support, i'd do it sooner rather than later.

Reassuringly, it hasn't done it since i plugged it into its own socket....(fingers crossed)!

just as a bit of help for others who might experience similar problems to this..i dug up a thread about it here:

http://www.gamespot.com/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=24054545

A combination of the advice in that thread and raising the PSU off the floor has so far, worked.

Ill give Microsoft a bell though, just to be on the safe side and cover my ar5e...although it begs the question of whether countless unnecessary replacements have had to be shipped out to similar owners of the console, just because of that very same scenario of not caring for both the clean supply and the positioning of 'the brick' in the first place...There must be some relation there, who knows?

Anyway, to reiterate. 3 red lights do not necessarily suggest a definate hardware failure...everytime. (he says

) We live in hope....
