I always try to complete the games I buy,to ensure that I get the most out of them for my money.

I don't always finish games in the order I purchase them tho. Sometimes I play a game so much without playing anything else, I kinda burn out on it, so I'll go away from it for a while and play other things and then will go back to finish it maybe a few weeks or a month or so later. By this time, the game usually feels fresh again and I get that sense of enjoyment back, that you usually get when you play a new game for the first time.

I also try to only play one genre of game at a time. So i'll be concentrating on one FPS, one Racing Game, one Sports game etc.

Hi Everyone,

I was hoping someone could help me with unlocking some of the final items in Table Tennis. I have looked around online and haven't been able to find the answers I was looking for.

The game gives you clues on how to unlock the remaining items, but its unclear exactly what you need to do, as I believe I have done some of the tasks but it hasn't unlocked the relevant item, thus I must be doing something wrong.

The clues I need help with are:

* Win a match with a really fast shot
* Win a match from a CPU shot that drops short

I believe I have done the first one a number of times but it never seems to work. I have finished matches with a Smash shot, which is obviously very fast. I have also finished matches using top-spin with a fast rally going, but still no success.

Any help is very much appreciated.

Thanks.

My console broke the other day after taking the latest update. Just get the 3 rings of death now. Was working fine before I took the update.

There are loads of people on Xbox.com forums saying they had exactly the same experience, but M$ have sed that the issues are not related! How can this be?

Aswell as my console dying...my friends Xbox took the update and now that won't load any Games, DVD's or CD's. You put them in and it simply behaves as if no disk has been entered!

I got the BioShock Special Edition, and all that had was a different box, nothing else! That was a bit of a let-down!

Opened it up and there was nothing different about it! Just had a metallic box! :(

I haven't played the demo myself, but a lot of people are saying the graphics are pretty poor!!

I loved both of the Max Payne games and they were awesome, 2 of my favourite games. I think what made Max Payne special for me, was the Film Noir setting and just the overall story and characters,

I have been keeping a relaxed tab on this game since I saw some previews/videos a while back, hoping that it was going to be a good game. I am still hoping for that, but some of the comments I've read throughout the forum have been less than mind-blowing shall we say.

Ah Well, you gotta keep the faith I suppose!! :D

Well I think ultimately it depends what you mean by graphics? Are you talking from a "Technical" stand-point (pixel counts/lighting effects/frames per second) or are you talking more from an artistic point of view (level and character designs/atmosphere/cohesion of environments).

Personally I think Gears of War is going to take some beating from both perspectives. I haven't played Bioshock, but from what I've heard, it sounds like it could be a contender!!

Yeah, the same thing happened for me. I think I had about 115 or 120 before I got the achievement.

Very good comment there from Spigley!!

From what I've heard the appeal of this game is all about it being a little different from the norm and its charm throughout. I'd say stick with it and at least finish it once, you might be disappointed, you might not!! :D
