Microsoft announced that sales of Minecraft 360 are now over 1,000,000, smashing all previous sales records for an XBLA game and in less than a week. I thought it would do well, but didn't think it would do that well. Now hopefully they use some of those funds to get updates and fixes out ASAP.

Did anyone grab Max Payne 3? Pretty positive reviews so far from around the web. Been home for almost a week now and still haven't set up my 360, lol.

I got Max Payne 3 and I like it a lot. The campaign is scripted and is kind of just a bunch of set pieces, but fun, and the multiplayer is great so far, though I only had a chance to try one round of deathmatch. I'm looking forward to playing more MP and SP. I recommend it. It is rather gratuitously gory, which doesn't really do anything for me, but it's not a big deal. I realize that most people would not see that as a downside AT ALL anyway. LOL.

Sounds good to me. Does it live up to its prequels? Been 9 years since the second game. Haven't played the series except the first game on the iOS.

I'm afraid I have never played any previous version, so I can't provide insight on that.

Turned on my 360 today after being back for 10 days. Barely touched it in the past month and a half due to SCII. Played a bit of MK9, Reach, and MW3 with my bro first.

Then, I went back to Dark Souls for the first time in over a month. Sometimes, it feels like I couldn't possibly hate a game more. After dying another 15 times, I was finally able to defeat the Bell Gargoyle, which was why I stopped playing the game for such a long period of time. That feeling you get when you are able to defeat a boss after so many damn tries/hours is pretty awesome. Will finally be able to get a move on with the game in the coming days/weeks..

This is one pretty old game, but it's still fun and really good! Just bought Burnout paradise (also with a sale to get the sims 3 for an extra $10. Instead of 59).

If anyone still needs a guest pass for Diablo III, let me know. Got a few of them left.

If Diablo III comes out for Xbox I'll play it.

I've been playing lots of Trials Evolution (GOTY for me for sure) and that damn Gigatrack is taunting me. I got 3 faults this weekend, but 30 seconds too slow for gold. Argh! Ok, maybe this course I'm not super fond of, but it's the last of the hard and easier tracks I have to get gold on and I really want that gold.
