andymac :Top Ten Favourite Sayings & Practices
of the average pre-pubescent american xbl player
10 : SHODDY
This appears to be american for shotgun. No, really. Often used in phrases such as "Hey man, thats my shoddy. Gimme my goddamn shoddy you Bic™". Phrases such as this are often followed by a deliberate team kill on the part of the person who wants the weapon concerned. See : Bic™, TEAM KILL
9 : OWNED
To be beaten by another player. Often this will involve semi-homosexual practices such as teabagging. See : TEABAGGING, POON
8 : Bic™
A derogatory term used to insult and imply that you are a lesser player than everybody else. Used to punctuate almost every spoken sentence e.g. "Sit down Bic™".
7 : LAG
This the other thing Americans do in order to win games. There is little we can do about this. See : OWNED, SUSPEND
6 : POON
Again a perversion of an good and proper English word. Apparently it's too difficult for the majority of children to form the "oh" in the word "owned" and have resorted to using the term "POON" or "POONED". See : OWNED, Bic™, LAG
5 : TEABAGGING
A semi-homosexual practice where the male genetalia are pressed against the forehead of another male. This practice is carried out with an almost religious fervour to in-game caharacters following a kill by a player. See : POON, OWNED, TEAM KILL, Bic™
4 : TEAM KILL
Think online friendly fire. Imagine how these kids will behave if they ever make it into the armed forces. Oh no, wait, too late... See : SHODDY
3 : CAMPER
One who hides near start points in the game in order to achieve high scores by killing in-game characters as soon as they start the game with superior weaponary. This is usually carried out at long range in order to minimise risk to the camper. While this denies the player the "pleasure" of teabagging his now dead online foe, it allows them to achieve obscenely high scores. See : ONANIST, POON, OWNED, TEABAGGING
2 : SUSPEND
Suspend as in suspend button. This magic button is found on many, many US routers and DSL modems - it prevents data from arriving at the server xbox thus allowing the person / people playing behind the router to continue playing while all the opposing teams characters are suspended. This is a way of obtaining high scores with minimal effort. See : LAG, POON, Bic™, OWNED, ONANIST
1 : ONANIST
An English term for the atypical prepubescent US XBL player, one synonym sounds remarkably like the word "Banker". See : SUSPEND, LAG, CAMPER

The table tennis is great, much like the classic virtua tennis in addictiveness. Easy to pick up, hard to master. Its good fun on multiplayer/live too.
Also I think some places are selling it at £20-£25 now which is a bargin.

True
Anybody else downloaded the Dead Rising demo?
Was expecting great things and the demo proves it
Also good to see capcom making an effort for the 360 as they didn't do much for the xbox

lmfao @ Teabagging
What come's next? who care's, why worry about things over which you have no control. Freedom is a voyage of discovery with all the enjoyment of seeing things and experiencing events for the first time. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.

I remember kicking you arse and at serval points laughing very hard as I kept getting head shots on you...
You will find the most played game on live is Halo 2.
Saying that anybody up for some fun on halo 2, not played it in a while.

i also remember that being one game, and in the 1st week of owning an xbox, so
I remember 2 games, one a murdered everybody and the other I wasn't first but I still beat you.
Can a add that was my second time online with that game, I don't play it online really. Don't rate it much online but the single player is worth the play.
Its all good fun
Out of interest who is getting dead rising next week?

I think he just summed up the game, its the fun in killing the zombies what makes it.
On the same idea on PGR3 you just drive cars and COD2 you just shoot ze germans
