I'm impressed as well, i love it, Dead or alive is amazing graphic wise, so is wwe's game, though the reverse system on sd vs raw sucks, its not about timing anymore, its chance really. Though the elimination chambers are so good, i entered first and won the thing, and retained randys wwe title in the process.

Microsoft has said Europe will be the territory it aims to conquer next year, with Sony top of its agenda.

Jeff Bell, head of global marketing at Microsoft, told Reuters: "The biggest challenge is that Sony as a brand has had greater staying power than in other areas. Not just PlayStation 3, but Sony as a brand.

"We will sell more consoles next year than this year, Europe for us is still the swing."

The Xbox 360 chief also added that the firm's next-gen console will gain market share in France and Germany, as well as Japan.

If you like GTA you'll most likely like Saints Row, it hasn't got no airplanes or boats to control but you can customize cars and the gameplay revolves around being in a gang, it's not bad really. It'll probably tide you over until GTA4 comes out.

Xbox 360 best-seller Halo 3 not only received rave reviews from the critics, but it is also likely to pick up gasps from industry outsiders after it was revealed that the game cost an estimated £15 million to develop, with several more millions spent on marketing.

The BBC has reported that costs for developing the latest hit games is rocketing, with more developers taking risks in an attempt to recoup the potential lucrative rewards.

While Halo 3 had a major budget for a video game, the fact that it brought in a record $170 million on day one will have put its investors' minds at rest. The title earned the most ever for an entertainment product in one day, even outdoing movie Spider-Man 3, the biggest-grossing Hollywood film.

Trading in Perfect Dark Zero [cleared] , Quake 4 [Cleared] and Just Cause & Far Cry [could not be arsed clearing] tomorrow for Mass Effect.

Ive also begun a quest to get ALL the achievements in Oblivion & The Shivering Isles because I shamelessly admit to being an achievement-craving *****.

I thought Just Cause was good fun for a while. As unrealistic as it is , the concept of car hopping and gliding through the air is fun for a few hours. The games two main drawbacks though are that the map is simply TOO big and loads of the missions border on the identical.

Id give it a 7. Its a good fun for a while , and if you got it cheap like you can now , its a good deal. Their are just better 360 games out their I think.

I played just cause for about 1 hour last night, i completed the first mission which was easy really, shooting cars and watching other cars getting blown up was fun, i liked the swimming part aswell, I'm onto the second mission which is to go this prison place, though i had this girl slap me on the game which was confusing, I'll play it again tonight, though I'd rather play dead or alive or smackdown vs raw.

I've been playing on Halo 3 for a bit today and I really don't think it is that good. COD4 and Bioshock are so much better.
