Had a quick play of that today actually. Looks very nice, sound is pretty damn impressive, plays like CoD4 with older weapons. Suprisingly graphic in its violence (sounds silly but the opening in-game scene is very very brutal) and it warns you about it before you even start!

The icing on the cake though? Kiefer Sutherland :D

Actually the icing on the cake was seeing "SINGLE PLAYER - CO OP - MULTIPLAYER".

Yep...CO-OP! :D I'd forgotten about that!

Picked up CoD WaW yesterday, i was hesitant becuase i have not completed gears 2 yet but i dived in anyway.

and now i wont be able to go back to Gears untill ive had my fill of this, its simply superb!

Relentless action from the off, very dark & very brutal - not to mention the graphics!

Possibly my favourite release on the 360 so far!?

What do we all think of the jazzy new Xbox Dashboard - I for one, like it!

The avatar business is a bit gay, looks like summat you would find on a Wii - but generally i think it looks and feels great.

You used the same description as I did: "wii" and "gay"

Its lovely, far better than Nintendo's "Miis" in my opinion.

Not sure how an avatar can be "gay" though? Perhaps haircut/makeup dependant?

Or were you using gay as a derogatory term?

Led Bolton to top after 9 games, but the tides must be turning as I just lost 4-0 to Blackburn in the League cup :lol:

Just been playing 4-1-4-1 and Elmander does the rest.

Signed Graveson, Fiore and Landon Donovan on frees, turned down 7.5m for Nolan!

Purchased live today, couldn't resist.

I should get my code via email today, so if you want to add me my gamertag is suprisingly 'Keveh'.
