Evening Reading
Steve Gibson
994
Well, NBA Live 08 is indeed not nearly as terrible as the previous versions which I guess isnt really saying a lot. Since I could wipe my butt with a DVD and put it in my 360 and have more fun than 07 was. But it seems to be too darn easy. I've only played about 5 games but I'm already blowing out the highest skill level by 40+ points. I know I'm only average at best at these games too. Kind of a bummer since I'm sure if I play on Live I'll get my ass handed to me by an 8yr old. Just wish the cpu opponents scaled a bit higher. ANYWAYS:

Lastly, Microsoft grabs up some Facebook. Perhaps to integrate in to Live? Yeah probably not.

Steve Gibson is the cofounder of Shacknews.com. Originally known as sCary's Quakeholio back in 1996, Steve is now President of Gearbox Publishing after selling Shacknews to GameFly in 2009.

          Yes. Also the chainsaw is the best weapon, followed by hunting rifle.

          dahanese, this post makes me question whether I'd want you in my roving band of survivors when the Zombie apocalypse comes :(

        Yeah. It's super easy, and then a gong show once you get the Barrett.

      I played this about six months ago and frankly got a little addicted to it. Perfect little time killer to play with in the university computer lab while waiting for the next class.

      For those that are asking, there are 20 nights. Also, that was fun. Just what I was wanting to play at the time actually. Thanks.

      fuck you guys this game is not easy - should i look for more survivors? I can't get past level 5 =(

      Ok, maybe I just suck

        October 24, 2007 9:54 PM

        Ok, nevermind - totally much easier when you use your first 12 hours to just find survivors

        look for survivors until you are at max, then look for weapons, you'll win every time. fun fact: there is a hidden weapon.

        great game, think i firs tplayed it about 6 months ago.

      Guess they still haven't fixed the shotgun bug. If you hit escape while reloading the shotgun it will pause the game but continue reloading.
