Those of you not already sold on Dead Space, go buy it tomorrow - My pre-order turned up today, and all I can say is that the game is pretty damn cool

Yes from the multiple uses of swears and the jumping, it seems very very good

I'd say it's worth picking up - the creature design is straight out of Mr. Carpenter's "The Thing", the sound design is on a par with many a decent flick (including sneaky tension building music, only for nowt to happen. until you start to relax..) and the tone hints that it could of been called System Shock 3 (which was genuinely terrifying in places) rather than the FPSfest that became BioShock.

Then again, if beardy RPG's are your thing, Fallout3 is out next week, (by the same people that did the social life destroying Elder Scrolls series).

Oh, and Left4Dead is out at the end of Nov.

HMV has finally done it,just when Xmas is round the corner you can now trade in your old games and consoles at most stores,and there will be members of staff willing to fleece,cough, cough, i mean receive your games & consoles.
Im not one for trading in games,the markdown on them is criminal,compared to what they sell them for,and none of the games storers or BBs have the trade in prices online.
the Xbox forums had a nice thread,where people posted the trade in prices on games daily.
Notice that stores wont take anything less than PS2 games.

Won Turok off Ebay for £7,it was in the hmv sale for 10.99 but sold out,has anybody else played this travesty of a game?
Turok on the GC or Xbox has more going for it than this new installment.
so your part of the wolfpack but theres no character interaction,when fighting baddies or bosses,the other characters do nothing infact they do nothing all the time,to the point of why did they include them?
anybody elses views on this game please come forward.
im putting my hopes on Gears of War 2 and Farcry 2 may just have been to tweaked to resemble jack carver.

I didn't even make it through the Turok demo, that's how bad the game was!
Gears of war 2 is on the buy list, I was tempted by the new Call of Duty, but after spending some time with the multiplayer beta, I'm not entirely convinced.

Not only is it an RPG, it's made by the people behind the Elder Scrolls series..

Gah, if it wasn't difficult enough to get through the next month or so without spending too much money on games, this popped up:
