Package a fairly good game with a fairly hyped beta (for arguably one of the best gaming series ever) and you have a winning combination. Crackdown comes packaged with a free invite to the Halo 3 multiplayer... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~324620160644 Sat, 24 Feb 2007 15:26:41 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_324620160644?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_277702479492?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author nkretz - Every so often the gaming world gets a truly amazing title.

Thousands of zombies, loads of weapons, or random objects that can be weapons! This is the sort of sand box game the Xbox 360 needs. Dead Rising is very similar to the movie, "Dawn of... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~247694724740 Fri, 11 Aug 2006 17:15:41 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_247694724740?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_241416441476?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author nkretz - Ping Pong, or table tennis is a very interesting game. Much like it's brother tennis it involves hitting a ball back and forth over a net.

Around ten years I'm guessing. But if someone told me it came out last month I would have believed them. This movie from the 90's still holds up in terms of brilliance against any Disney flick. In terms of animation... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~238092062340 Fri, 23 Jun 2006 14:05:45 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_238092062340?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_232534937220?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author nkretz - New Super Mario Bros.

Each and every time I pick it up and play I waste so much time! Always trying to get more lines than you did the last time. Taunting you. Making you hunger for more. More points. More glory. Ok enough of that.

The Xbox 360 to me has been simply a myth, or a thought that I could own one. I have reserved an Xbox 360 at game stop. Although it was in September sometime. The 360 came out on November 22 of 2005.
