Hi

just got a XBOX 360 as a gift and need recommendations on what games to get?

Ive always had playstations since they first come out (will be getting a PS3 soon after I get bored with the 360), mainly played car racing games (GT1,2,3 &4) and little bit of shooting and sports.

so something with good graphics, not too complicated but fun, and also multi player capable so you can play with mates.

cheers

Gears of War is fun...

ive got saints row and Tony Hawks P8 but havent played either yet... but apparently Saints Row is alot of fun too...

P.S. does anyone have Dead Rising that they dont want anymore and would sell/trade?

dead rising was discontinued about november last year for no apparent reason. You can still get it if you find it, but there are no official copies coming into australia anymore.

Also saints row is going classic soon so it will be 49.95.

+1 for Gears of War, it has offline 2 player splitscreen co-op in campain mode and is still awesome.

GRAW 1 & 2 are also both pretty good, they both have lots of multiplayer options and support offline 4 player splitscreen. I'd say that I liked GRAW 2 more than 1 in regards to multiplayer, because it has more maps. GRAW 1 had a few good ones, but some were really small and over pretty quickly. GRAW 2 looks better too. :P

Rainbow Six: Vegas has a good co-op mode as well for 2 people (can be offline) and is pretty good.

hey dude, ill throw up another vote for gears of war. its a fairly good representation of what the 360 can do at the moment and is good cause you can co-op with your mates

forget nba 07 unless your into sport games btw

graw (i havent played graw2 online yet) is a good game regarding graphics but you may find that the mulitplayer is less enjoyable than a game such as COD2.

i know COD2 was a launch game but even though the graphics were of a lower standard the gameplay (or playability if you will) was a lot better than graw

feel free to add me as well my gamertag is ' spinpsycle '

cheers

I was a big fan of PGR2 and have played a little bit of PGR3, I think it's pretty good but is a little bit easier; finishing arcade mode in PGR2 with all gold medals was insanely hard! You can pick PGR3 up very cheaply now if you look around, it also comes packaged with the official 360 steering wheel (which is awesome). But there's no 4 player offline splitscreen!

Gears of war is a must buy especially if you gonna play online.

forza 2 comes out 14 of june. I didnt like the first 1 but they have reallly, really spent some serious time into the realisticness of this one and i think it should be a gem of a racing game.

I like nfs games. both carbon and most wanted are both heaps of fun on it.

Call of duty 3 is kick ass as.. as everyones saying get a 5.1 sound system and prepare for audial bliss.

PGR3 is quite fun and its damned hard to get all platinum medals too.. specially on the cone challenges (which my mate seems to think he should be so good at even though he doesnt play video games)

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      By sonicii · Posted

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????

      Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
