Prototype and Riddick for 10 bugs isn't bad at all.  I dunno about the other 2, haven't played em.
 
Best Buy has some deal this week I believe where you can buy 2 360 platinum games and get 1 free.  Decent deal.  Basically get 3 games for under the price of a new one.  I'd do it if I weren't already spending money on Mass Effect.

Someone has probably already mentioned but if not...
 
I'm fairly positive Tripwire's next game is suppose to be you as a Nazi.  Which is awesome to play WW2 from a different perspective for once and considering Tripwire made Red Orchestra which is awesome.  It's either that or you play some of the game as a Nazi.  I don't remember exactly, haven't kept up with it but I'll definitely be checking it out.
 
as for being a Terrorist.  It would depend on the context I suppose....I'm pretty sure we have already played several games where you are basically a terrorist.  Red Faction Guerilla?  Half-Life 2 even...

" @handlas: I haven't seen BTTF (lame, I know), but I'm pretty sure that's not even close to the plot I described.    Try again. "

Back to the Future

" Didn't he say that Borderlands would fail miserably..? If so, he was wrong :P "

glad that I got in the beta.  I would of traded in the next day after buying it.  Having Mass Effect 2 released on the same day makes it even easier to pass.
 
my experience with the beta was long waits to get in a game (that never ended up being 256 players anyway).  Then they tout the 256 player limit but, in reality, I never saw that many people on my screen fighting and I never really felt like I was in a large scale battle anyway.  But then, while the graphics aren't horrible, they do suffer in order to make these large games.  But what's the point when it feels like I'm playing a 24 person MP shooter anyway?
 
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong about the game tho.  I didn't give it a lot of play time because the way the game felt (character movement, guns, etc.) didn't feel good either.  Really, I couldn't find a single thing about the beta that I enjoyed.  Shame.  I don't think BIGGER is the right direction for MP games.  I didn't enjoy the large scale MP games in Resistance 2 either.

Nope.  I always trade in games to avoid paying 60 bucks as it is.  Rarely put down a full 60 bucks.  Trade in games I get that are old from giftcards during holidays or something.  Not the best thing to do considering I currently own 4 games total right now but if I'm not gonna play them anymore I don't see why I should keep em.
 
The new thing these days to give extra crap for new copies and preordering games is annoying me tho.

I just beat it.  15 hours for me on Apocalyptic.  I only found half of the Abysmal armor tho...wasn't going out of my way to search for it.  Fun game.  Nice diversion when there is nothing else out there you want to play...I was trying to beat it before Mass Effect 2 comes out.  The sequel looks like it may be promising.

2nd thread this guy has made about "looking like a guido".  I think he has issues.  His first thread was closed...

uhhh obviously not.  Was this an excuse to post a picture of someone you know so people would make fun of the guy in that picture?  I'm surprised no one has said anything hurtful yet.
