I know its early days, but if anyone has gta san andreas and installed the update, what does it run like on the 360 with HDTV...are there any noticeable improvements?

Just never got this game on previous xbox, might be tempted if the look of it has been altered for the better

 

[NokkonWud]

Oh come on, where's Fahrenheit!

Just waiting for Leisure Suit Larry to work

So having never had an original Xbox, which of those would be worth buying if I can get them cheap from somewhere?

 

[Yas786]

Still waiting to see Brian Lara cricket on that list , absolutely love that game...been playing it quite a bit on a mates ps2 and have had some excellent laughs along the way.


Does anyone know if a cricket game will be released for the xbox360??, cant seem to find any info regarding this.

 

[bingham67]

Ninja Gaiden sounds tempting

Do you ever stop talking about KOTOR!? I'm gonna slap you upside the head at BLR!

They are good games though...

 

[Spikey]

Chaos Theory works fine now, which is good as I never did get round to trying those two new co-op maps!

 

[Nogimmix]

I wonder if Winning Eleven 9 will still have the border problem like PES5 does

 

[Davey_Pitch]

Ninja Gaiden sounds tempting

Indeed it should, it's the best game ever IMO. You have ready made help on hand as well, just drop me a line if you need any help with it

 

[Psymonkee]

I'll 2nd that Davey

Speaking of which I think it's about time that helicopter took a dirtnap :|

 

[Memphis]

Do we have any idea what the 'updated' games have had changed?
I attempted to play Forza a while back and the framerate was verging on unplayable (which given it pushed the original Xbox when it was released, under emulation, it's hardly surprising).

 

[Yas786]

no cricket game as of yet.

Damn that sucks , oh well just have to wait i guess, am hoping they bring something out soon.

Cheers dude, i'll try and dig it out cheap

No.... no I don't

I've not played either for ages... may continue my 2nd Jade Empire character this evening though, while I've got chance.
