A 360 and 3 months' worth of Live! Yuss. Pity the bloody servers are down.

I'm gonna add my gamertag to the thread, but I may as well post it here: theafroguy16.

By the way, do I need two Live accounts to play Halo 3 online with another person (on the same machine)?

The only game I actually got was Ghost Squad on the Wii, but I lucked into a little HDTV, so all my games are like new again, LOL.

(Though I am pretty happy with the little r/c bumblebee concept camaro :P)

If the other person has their own gamertag, yes, they need to be a Gold user.
Otherwise, no, don't have them log in, they'll join as a Guest.

(In the leaderboards, it'll look like "theafroguy16(1)")

[edit]
Ace Combat 6 w/ Flight Stick (SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET)
Trauma Center: New Blood
MS Points (4000)
A new Wii Nunchuck. (3 down, 1 more to go!)
And a cartridge in a nes tree.

Oh, I mean, that's all.

one thing I neglected to mention, I fired up beatmania US to see how well it'd work in HD, but OH GOD THE LAG :( I was failing stuff I could normally pass in my sleep on an SDTV... :(

But I did try SN1 briefly, seemed to work okay, so I think it's just the one game it has issues with.

No games.. I'm hoping for a late gift from my brother (probably Orange Box <3). Got 200 bucks and a new monitor (gunna dual screen to have a combined 34.4 inch display). I'm trying to figure out what games to get with 300 bucks now.. Can almost afford a 360 premium, or I can get a PS2... So hard!!!

I got from my brother the GHIII bundle for the 360, though the guitar seems to be not working properly, since the Orange Button stucks sometimes or it doesn't respond... good thing for warranties though.

I got for myself Tetris Evolution for the 360 also and that's all.

No, MGS4 isn't coming to the 360. Never was, never will.
If I'm mistaken, Ranma gets a free copy of it. =P
