Still polishing off Saint's Row 2 and Fable 2 but they're done for the most part.

How's Saints Row 2? I was thinkin' about renting it, but heard it was shit. Better than the first or about the same?

Better than the first, but similar, it is the sequel. I like it because it's not GTA IV, it's over the top and completely insane. I liked the first one, I love the second one. It's really a matter of taste. I find that a lot of people who loved GTA IV aren't as into SR2, but people who loved the earlier GTA's and were turned off by IV seem to love SR2.

I loved the first Saint's Row.. it actually lasted longer for me than GTA IV. I'm definitely gonna check out the second one.

I think I'll get to it. I was disappointed by GTA IV and was kinda burned out after the release and the letdown. Thanks for the info.

Cool, just don't kill me if you don't like it. Although you can make a male character that looks and talks like a chick so any game where you can be a transexual/trangender/drag queen (I don't know the right term for the game plus I can't see my characters junk) is awesome.

The communication is really well thought out and it's so smooth in recognizing the actions. Great game for MMO players online as the battles can go on for literal days.

I recall when voice commands first in appeared in the Rainbow Six games on the old xbox...

Me (into mic): Open, Flash and Clear on Zulu!
Team: Negative
Me: Open, Flash and Clear on Zulu!
Team: Negative
Me: Open, Flash and Clear!
Team: Negative
Me: Open and clear?
Team: Negative
Me: fuck it [presses A button - team open, flash and clear ]

Though I hear it's much improved in End War.

When I played the beta of EndWar, I found the voice commands to work admirably well, but the strategy part of things was kind of lacking, so I didn't care much.
