Lego games are great. Xbox live gold can be had cheaper on amazon or buy.com sometimes. You can save a few bucks. Try a gamefly subscription? First month is free. I had it for a while and liked it but just cut it because I was not playing that much. It's great though for iffy games though.

you would be surprised how fun the lego games actually are.
I'm finding this out.
I have everything hooked up and have played a little so far. Too much OT at work to get some time in on the games, but what I've played so far has been fun.
Can't wait to start a the PFF "game night" with you guys. Right now I'd get slaughtered by all of you .

Plus gaming is a passion of mine.. I have equally large collections for most of my other systems.. And i have A LOT of systems.. lol. Pretty much everything from the NES till now..
Ask me anytime if you want to know about a game.. I'll tell you what i think, and what i myself would pay for it..

Very cool. It's like living in a Micky Spillane novel.
The controls aren't as spot on as I'd like, but it isn't a first person shooter so it isn't as important.
You start off as a beat cop in 1947 Los Angeles, working the streets and solving crimes and working your way up through the different ranks and departments (traffic, arson, vice, etc.) You can also respond to different dispatch calls when you are patrolling. The music and news reels ("Dateline Los Angeles!") are great, as is tons of old cars! Not fakes ones either! Packard, Chevy, Ford, Chrysler, etc, are all there. Even the Red Car (LA trolly car) makes an appearance. It is supposedly 8 square miles of accurate 1947 LA. I wasn't around then, and don't know the city streets of LA since I've only been there once or twice, but I recognize the famous pyramid-tipped building that was "blown up" in 1952's War of the Worlds.
Overall it has been a pretty interesting game, and if you like film noir, hard-boiled detective stories, and occasionally commandeering a 41 Ford convertible, this game is for you.

Yup. Most week nights I'll be available.
Although I am getting ready to start work on my Fiero, so my online time is gonna be somewhat limited.

I unplugged both the modem and router. After 30sec I plugged the router in first then the modem. I had connection for a few minutes, just enough time to set-up a online profile and BAM! ! .......the modem kicked me off. Going to call AT&T to see about getting a bigger modem.

How long has it been since AT&T replaced your modem? They may replace your modem with a modem/router combo device.
Got it and working fine.
I have a question for those that play MW2 and host matches. I found out from a friend that when a host doesn't like what your doin' in a match or is a sore loser, they pick you specifically to kick you off. Any of you higher ranking MW2 players do that? I'm only a level 24 and it's happened to me when getting into a match with 50+ ranks when I get a kill on a few of them. I also ran into boosters in a couple of matches and got kicked.
