Star Wars Battlefront, Fable, and Xmen. Comments? - The Orange Mane

want2bAbronco · 10-01-2004, 06:38 AM

I am going to pick up 2 or all 3 of these games tonight. Not sure yet which I want to get. I will get Fable since I had it pre ordered. Might get Star Wars since I am a big fan, but the Co-Op of Xmen should be just as fun for friends and I.

Anyone pick these games up yet? What do you like/hate etc... about them?

Warning to all those who have performed soft mods on there xbox. Battlefront automatically updates your xbox so it can cause some problems if you run it.

I got battlefront on the PC installed tonight and played it for about 4 hours.

Im sufficiently hooked. Very good game IMO. Kinda hard, but there are a lot of different maps and levels and styles. All the vehicles from Baka tanks to speeders and some stuff I have never seen before. Can fly X wing and Tie fighters. Basically everything you see in the movies is flyable almost anyway.

You can be the rebels from Lukes time. The Stormtroopers from Luke's time. Clones from the Clone wars. Droids from the naboo invasion. So far that is all I have played. This should keep me plenty busy until Halo 2.

X-men legends is pretty cool.

Good gameplay, storyline, character selection, yadda yadda.
It's nice to FINALLY get a decent x-men game.

I've got Fable and it. is. amazing. They took out quite a few details before finalizing it, but it's still VERY addictive. You can sit down and play for about 5 hours without realizing it. You can get laid, kill innocent people and just become the most evil SOB you can imagine.

Get Burnout 3, too. Badass racing game.

I bought Xmen and Fable. Rented Star Wars. I love all 3 so far. Friend that im staying with and I played Star wars a lot. Xmen just a little *since I own it, play rented first*. I play Fable when he isn't around, and I love that game so far. Rulon have you got to the part in Fable where you have to get the talking door to open by spelling his name? I found they guy to tell me, but he wants something red and says "there are rare big creatures near here that drop rare things" I ran all over but couldn't find anything that drops something red....whats he want?

Rulon Velvet Jones · 10-04-2004, 07:47 AM

H-I-T-S is his name.

Beat it yesterday morning. Was evil as hell. I had these killer horns, flies buzzing all around me and a wicked blood mist that followed me everywhere I went.

And, just like in the real world, I smacked the crap out of my wife and got divorced. Good times.

Stick around after the credits and you can keep playing after beating it. The only problem is that you're TOO powerful and can just mow down entire towns with ease. Kinda fun, but gets old after a while.

I heard a rumor you can blast Ewoks in Battlefront. If this is true, Greatest...Game...Ever!

I havent made it to the forest moon of Endor yet, however on Tatooine you can blast jawa's if that is your perverted desire.

want2bAbronco · 10-04-2004, 12:15 PM

yes u can shoot them.

Rulon, thanks for the name...but where do u get the red gift for the guy?

Rulon Velvet Jones · 10-04-2004, 12:41 PM

Don't know. I didn't even bother with him. I opened the door without even finding him.

Having just bought my XBox just over a month ago, I'm still buying used games... Though I've been drooling over Halo 2 and Fable. I don't know if I can hold out...

I'm going to pick up KOTOR this weekend.

want2bAbronco · 10-07-2004, 07:04 AM

KOTOR is a great game TJ. You can play as good then play it again as evil. Fable is pretty easy, but I love the combat system and the quests /exp/ wide open play is great. Halo 2, well you can't say enough about that game!
