I just got Fight Night Round 4 last night and I'm all excited because this is the game most of us have been waiting for since the last one. After fixing the game settings I go to put my controller setting to the same setting I put in every Fight Night game, Controller Setting # 3, only to find out that I have no choice and I have to play with the Stupid TPC. Now if we as gamers can't have a choice in something as miniscule as a controller setup, what does that mean for future games? I know some will say ''Well the DLC is coming out and it fixes that''. That helps me none b/c I don't plan on getting online untill the next school semester ends (It distracts me from doing my college school work) Will all games be like this b/c they know DLC can always fix it? How about the ones w/o onlineNo Face Buttons In Fight Night Round 4 M ...

well why don't you just play the game how it is suppose to be played?

Not a bad game, just really bad decisions were made.
You should be thankful that EA is even considering putting that option in as DLC because of people moaning about it. At least they're listening to feedback and not sitting on it.

Yeah, dissuading people from using a more responsive, immersive control scheme and not allowing people to spam punches much easier is awful. How dare EA commit such a crime!!
I was in the same boat as you, I alway used the face buttons. But I will say if you give the game a chance and learn to use the RS you will like the game. They have impoved over the way it works and punches flow and build in a buffer. But I will say it's not perfect ether, I tend to throw right punches when Im trying to throw lefts. I have even looked to see if I was moving the stick to the left and was still throwing rights. I wonder If im the only one with this issue. But give the game a chance once you learn how to play you wont care you can't use the face bottons to punch.

I don't think they removed it due to time restrictions. I think they honestly thought this was the better control scheme.
From article on kotaku.com - ''We strongly believe that the refined Total Punch Control is the most intuitive way to throw punches in Fight Night Round 4,'' the game's senior producer, Dean Richards, said in a press release, ''But we also want fans of the franchise to have an option.''
But don't only accuse EA of pulling such things. Look at MLB 2K8. Yes last year's game. They revamped the pitching to the analog stick which I really liked, but for some it was too difficult so they didn't bother with the game. I think they simplified it for this year's game because of last year's complaints.

I was blown away with TPC in FN2004. And I think FNR4's is the best TPC since it allows a little delay inbetween the punches allowing for you to let punches flow, like in real life.
no. it makes it good. too many times i was beaten by my friend cause he was using the buttons instead of the analogue sticks. which require actual SKILL rather then just pressing a button.
Who cares? Just get used to the new set up.

Where have you been? This has only been beaten to the ground countless times before.
Face buttons are for complete noobs :roll: I've used the analogue sticks since Fight Night 2004 if you're not good enough to co-ordinate your thumbs then go and play facebreaker or something grandad, button bashers are so 1990's :evil:

Longest 360 games
what are the longest 360 games?? , I like FPS and Roleplaying Longest 360 games
saints row,oblivion,i heard mass efffect is kinda longLongest 360 games
ive played dead rising for hooours, but i dunno if it fits into the category.
ive heard oblivion last a really, really long time. im going to play that once i get through all the amazing games just out now
assassins creed is pretty long so is mass effect
its old and cheap but dead rising is a reallly good buy. i bought it about 8 months ago and played just that for about 5 months straight. i also like fps and rpgs so i think youd like it.
Mass Effect and Oblivon are pretty long RPGs. Orange Box is prolly the longest FPS though since it has 5 games in 1.
Oblivion, Eternal Sonata,Enchanted Arms,and Mass Effect.
Oblivion. I have logged 170 hours into that game and im no where near done with it. Had to take a break for a while.
Oblivion has endless possibilities.. Assassin's Creed is pretty long, as well as ME.. but ME at least has replay value... the only reason to play AC again is to get those pesky flags.
i bought Dead rising but first im playing marvel alliance, think i will pick up Mass Effect, Bioshock.Gears and Eternal Sonata
yeah bioshock is a good choice. great storyline, location and good lenght. and also gears, single player is very short(on normal) but multiplayer is great and many people are still playing it today
Forza Motorsport 2, there's almost 400 races in that game. :O
Off the top of my head: Oblivion= longest game on the 360 easily (logged about 200-300 hours on with different characters over along period of time), Saints Row, Orange Box looks like its a great deal, The Godfather, Dead Rising, also Bioshock f you really immerse yourself into the game and not just go around shooting everything.
If you're into multiplayer then I guess these would be essential cause they last a long time + they have pretty good single player as well : Halo 3 , Rainbow Six Vegas, GRAW2, COD(2,3,4) and Gears of War though you will probably have some of those already.
blue dragon is like easily 60+ hours.
COD4.....lol jk.
Fallout 3 has kind of a long story and you will probably restart over and over to see what happens with different karma. Also the map is huge!

Party Chat has Ruined Xbox Live
This is really just me ranting about no one ever talking on Xbox Live anymore. I remember playing Halo 2 till four in the morning haveing a blast with people I'd meet in game, but now, I'm lucky if someone else even coughs into their mic. As I sit in the game lobby for Halo 3 I see everybody who does have a mic to be in a private chat, and everyone else just simply doesn't even have a mic. Xbox Live use to actually have a community of people, some bad, some good, but it was a unique experiance playing late at night. Than when Microsoft introduced the party chat feature everyone just sits in there even if they're all in the same game and no one interacts with anyone else. I'll admit I myself was excited for the party chat feature and I do still use it in-game from time to time but I miss my random conversaions with complete strangers....Party Chat has Ruined Xbox Live
party chat saved xbox live, especially halo, i dont think you could even call halo online a community, more a large collection of **** headsParty Chat has Ruined Xbox Live
I don't get why people are so worried about other players talking in the mic ? I mean do you need somebody to keep you company ?(I'm asking this in general)
I guess it doesn't bother me that much. Most of the people who use their mics for all to hear simply scream into their mics, spew some unoriginal lines in an attempt to be funny or witty, mock someone for their screen name, and run their mouths until I mute them anyway. But, that's just my opinion...
Well those of us who have friends online would say otherwise. I really like party chat.

Right..... I don't think anyone really took that post the right way... I've got plenty of friends to go into a party chat with online, I even said that I do it just like everyone else. But on occasion when I'm in the game channel, yea, I like for people to talk and communicate like a team, even the jerk offs provide some entertainment. The whole focus of Xbox Live is to create a virtual community, but a community is hard to enjoy with no communication between one another besides the occasional team kill or tea bag. Again, I do love party chat myself so I'm not saying outright it should be removed or anything like that. Just sometimes people need to stop being so timid in-game and say something.... just my two cents.
Party chat makes xbl better, I'd much rather chat to friends than knob heads that talk smack from the overside of the globe to me.
Umm actually Party Chat has been a blessing for XBL. Id much rather just talk to my buddies than listen to some 9 year old scream into the mike or listen to some punk talk a bunch of crap. Face it, unfortunately, the average person on XBL isnt there to have a good time. They are there to talk smack and act all tough! Party Chat is the best thing to happen to XBL!!

I gave voice chat another go the other day, I haven't since the NXE update, and first thing that happened ? farcry 2 multiplayer, some australian fool shouting at me for using a vehicle.I'm sorry but the amount of negative experiences outweigh the good for me, I love party chat.
[This message was deleted at the request of a moderator or administrator]
party chat is great, no more screaming little kids who think their gangsta. plus when im not in party chat there are still quite a few people who talk, i find. enough people at least. but id rather talk to friends then little kids anyway
I know for one that I wouldn't even have a mic on if it wasn't for party chat. I tried to go on with strangers, and ended up into multiple verbal altercations with people. When you play a game like CoD: WaW or other shooters with a community; people are down right ugly to you. And I myself have done my own share of cussing people out for team killing or noob tubing and other crap. I have met some cool people but then again met some really strange and freaky people too. To top it all off, I couldn't weigh out the ratio of how many dumb A** punks I exchanged words with, those totally out weighed the number of decent cool people. In fact, I went through my friends list and removed alot of people that I thought were cool, but I never even talk to or play games with for some reason. Seriously what is the reason to have a friend on XBL if you aren't going to communicate with them? Oh and the most enjoyable experiences (sarcasm), is those singing high pitched punk kids that all run around with Jugg and an Mp40; laughing at you and talking trash. Somehow I ended up getting bad reviews for talking trash when I was usually defending myself to some douchebag that started the mess by intentionally team killing at the end of a match or being the host and team killing over and over again. Yeah, I don't do the normal chat in game anymore, its much better for my health and psyche to do party chat with my friends.
Where is everyone finding these people at? I'm not saying I haven't encountered them before, but lately there's nothing but silence for me. Not even an annoying 10 year old yelling about how he just no scoped me! I find that really, really odd because now I almost never encounter trash talking, but I mean come on, it's Xbox Live! If there's no trash talking than you have a problem. I think if I ran into these people normally like I use to, than yes, I'd be very thankful to go into my party chat but they aren't giving me any problems. Now it's just like me and the people I normally talk to on Live are the only people with mics yet here we all are on these forums and most of us how mics. I think my point has really just become completely moot, but I guess what I'm trying to say is if you're in the game channel, have a mic, aren't talking, than stop being shy and say something. If no one answers than fine, you tried, and if someone trash talks you than that's cool too...... just mute them.
Sometimes it's quite irritating. Other times the party system is awesome.sunscreen

I gave voice chat another go the other day, I haven't since the NXE update, and first thing that happened ? farcry 2 multiplayer, some australian fool shouting at me for using a vehicle.I'm sorry but the amount of negative experiences outweigh the good for me, I love party chat.

party chat is great, no more screaming little kids who think their gangsta. plus when im not in party chat there are still quite a few people who talk, i find. enough people at least. but id rather talk to friends then little kids anyway
I know for one that I wouldn't even have a mic on if it wasn't for party chat. I tried to go on with strangers, and ended up into multiple verbal altercations with people. When you play a game like CoD: WaW or other shooters with a community; people are down right ugly to you. And I myself have done my own share of cussing people out for team killing or noob tubing and other crap. I have met some cool people but then again met some really strange and freaky people too. To top it all off, I couldn't weigh out the ratio of how many dumb A** punks I exchanged words with, those totally out weighed the number of decent cool people. In fact, I went through my friends list and removed alot of people that I thought were cool, but I never even talk to or play games with for some reason. Seriously what is the reason to have a friend on XBL if you aren't going to communicate with them? Oh and the most enjoyable experiences (sarcasm), is those singing high pitched punk kids that all run around with Jugg and an Mp40; laughing at you and talking trash. Somehow I ended up getting bad reviews for talking trash when I was usually defending myself to some douchebag that started the mess by intentionally team killing at the end of a match or being the host and team killing over and over again. Yeah, I don't do the normal chat in game anymore, its much better for my health and psyche to do party chat with my friends.
Where is everyone finding these people at? I'm not saying I haven't encountered them before, but lately there's nothing but silence for me. Not even an annoying 10 year old yelling about how he just no scoped me! I find that really, really odd because now I almost never encounter trash talking, but I mean come on, it's Xbox Live! If there's no trash talking than you have a problem. I think if I ran into these people normally like I use to, than yes, I'd be very thankful to go into my party chat but they aren't giving me any problems. Now it's just like me and the people I normally talk to on Live are the only people with mics yet here we all are on these forums and most of us how mics. I think my point has really just become completely moot, but I guess what I'm trying to say is if you're in the game channel, have a mic, aren't talking, than stop being shy and say something. If no one answers than fine, you tried, and if someone trash talks you than that's cool too...... just mute them.
Sometimes it's quite irritating. Other times the party system is awesome.
Jasper Chipset
Is the Arcade the only one that has the Jasper Chipset? I wanna buy a 360 elite but i wanna make sure i have the best hardware. Is it best to buy all the accessories for the arcade or just get an elite?Jasper Chipset
Any console manufactured in 2009 is almost guaranteed to be Jasper. Any prior to Nov. 2008 will likely not be. The Elite game of the year bundles are not Elites to my knowledge (thus why they are bundled in the first place). Jasper Chipset
I don't know. I know Elites pawn so its all good.
Does anyone know of an elite with jasper in stores or online?
[QUOTE=''DBhova23'']Does anyone know of an elite with jasper in stores or online?[/QUOTE]Get one in a store since it's the only way to be sure it's an elite. And don't buy a bundled version (other than RE5 version) since they are not jaspers to my knowledge. If you order one online you will likely be sent a falcon version.
In Australia, i bought a 360 elite from JB-HIFI and it is a jasper :D im so happy
Can I ask, without having to open the 360 up, how do you know if it's got a falcon or a jasper chip? I got RROD again yesterday, so I am also wanting to buy an Elite, but since this is gonna be my fourth 360 total, I want to make sure to get the Jasper this time. Thanks for the help.
I think if you buy a brand new 360 today (Arcade/Pro), you'll be fine.Elites, I don't know.
i heard from my EB rep that the only Elites with Jaspers are the GTA IV bundles. but that's set to change later this year

You need to look on the back. If it says 12 - 12V .... Thats the one.
i know its not wise to buy a refurbished 360....but would it be safe to buy a refurbished jasper?
No more Elites are going to come with the Jasper chip set, except the limited edition ones.
I have a Red RE5 elite that was manufactured back in January and it's a Jasper. It's very, very quiet.

now that i call bs on. i don't believe that at all. MS wouldn't shoot themselves in the foot by being that stupid
Pretty sure arcades are the only ones that have Jaspers, but I could be wrong.
Me and my cousin each got a Jasper when we got a new Arcade one.Check the voltage as someone else said. Also check the MANUFACTURE DATE! Thats a great way to see. make sure it was made in 09 or LATE 08.

Mass Effect...?
What is the objective in Mass Effect? To help organisms in different Galaxies and on Planets? That seems pretty fun to me.I found a copy at Wal-Mart for $18.95, and I may pick it up.What are your opinions on the game?Mass Effect...?
Yeah...you're about to get a whole bunch of positive remarks and reccomendations, people on this forum really love this game.:PMass Effect...?
You can find it cheaper at a Gamestop or EB. Its an awesome 3rd person rpg. I'm sure a lot of people would highly recommend it.
[QUOTE=''DranzarTypeF'']Yeah...you're about to get a whole bunch of positive remarks and reccomendations, people on this forum really love this game.:P[/QUOTE]I would assume so. :P
Best WRPG with the best story this gen. Nothing else even comes close in the WRPG category that is. The only drawbacks are most of the sidequests and most of the planets are pretty dull.
Simply one of the best rpgs ever. Get it, its epic and the 2nd is coming next year :D
How many planets are there?
[QUOTE=''Brutal-Koopa'']How many planets are there?[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure probably around twenty but it's basically the same planet over and over again.
Lots of Planets, lots of fun. I got it for 12:99 euro three weeks ago :)
Dont mind the number of planets. Exploration in mass effect sucks, its not BAD but it could be better. ME2 is improving on this department though, nice.
This and the elevators are the only things i just dont like about the game.
[QUOTE=''craigalan23''][QUOTE=''Brutal-Koopa'']How many planets are there?[/QUOTE] I'm not sure probably around twenty but it's basically the same planet over and over again.[/QUOTE]:0 Dang. I was looking forward to 50.Oh well hehe, I'll buy it.
theres a lot less if you dont pursue the sidequests but its still worth the price
this is the greatest WRPG of this gen, IMO.

Damn Mass Effect elevator technology. xD
But still it is an amazing game with an amazing story and gameplay AND it's customizable to your gaming liking :D Straight up brawl or a tactician. The latter is an actual achievement lol
Pick it up!!!! Its a steal at that price bud!!
I loved Mass Effect! Its one of those games i played non stop till i beat it haha (not in one sitting or anything but in a few weeks). When Mass Effect first came out, it was THE ONLY game i played until i beat it haha.
Fantastic story, awesome characters, good graphics and was just fun to play.
