Animal Crossing: City Folk The newest sequel in Nintendo's relaxing communication series, it lets players live a second life in a virtual world full of friendly animal neighbors. You can work at the local store running errands to earn money, fix up your house with furniture and decorations, or just laze away the day by walking out under the sun, fishing in the local stream and collecting sea shells by the sea shore.
BOOM Blox Boom Blox is a comical celebration of chaos, destruction and good old-fashioned explosive mayhem. Have you ever played a game of Jenga? You know that moment at the very end, when you just know that the whole tower's about to tumble? Boom Blox is like an entire game fueled by that same fun sense of anticipation, as well as the equally exciting release when the whole thing finally does come crashing down.
Guitar Hero World Tour The high-profile music game series casts its players as would-be rock stars, letting them perform the greatest rock and roll hits of all time to virtual crowds of thousands, all the while holding actual replica instruments in their hands. This latest edition offers that same proven experience, but ups the ante even more — now, instead of just the guitar and bass, players can bring the noise with a drum kit and karaoke microphone as wel
Super Smash Bros. Brawl Serious gamers need this game. The third installment in the wildly successful Super Smash Bros. series, Super Smash Bros. Brawl is an off-the-wall, absolutely wacky and totally fun-filled multiplayer fighting game that's a perfect choice for any hardcore player. It's not a violent fighter, but rather a massive contest of King of the Hill
Wario Land: Shake It Not every game to come along any more is some overly complicated 3D mess. A few select releases still make it out the door that ascribe to a simpler philosophy of game design, and exist comfortably in just two dimensions. Wario Land: Shake It is the latest and greatest of this style of game, as it's an immersive and enthralling action/platformer, but it's done completely in 2D.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts Xbox 360 is a big one for the older kids but for those little kids that have the Xbox 360 and have like no games because they are all shooting stuff then get this game it is so fun. It isn't some stupid cartoonish land thing. It is like LEGOS and you can build your own rides and other fun stuff.
Battlefield:Bad company Bad Company is the first entry in the series to offer an originally created single-player storyline exclusively to console gamers. Throughout the adventure players will get to know the four members of B-Company and how to utilize their specialties as a unit. Their story takes you throughout warring European nations in search of a ruler's stash of gold. The squad must use some unsavory tactics in order to land their final prize.
Fallout 3 Anybody that loves post-apocalyptic sci-fi or open-ended role-playing games is going to love this one. The game can be a bit challenging, and the foul language and excessive gore ensure that it is most definitely not intended to be played by small children, but it will reward anybody who is willing to put in the time to see all that it has to offer.
Gears of war 2 If you own an Xbox 360 chances are you own Gears of War. It's a showcase for what the system can do both in terms of gameplay and visuals. It's certainly a game intended for mature audiences who don't mind feeling like the entrails of an enemy could spill out of the screen and onto their feet. Gears of War 2 takes all the action from the first game and cranks it up a notch with bigger environments, enemies and weapons.
GRID In Grid, you take on the role of a rookie driver who's trying to make his or her name in the competitive world of racing. Races take place in Japan, Europe and the United States, and some of the word's fastest and most spectacular cars are at your fingertips. From the lean, mean Nissan Skyline GT-R Z-Tune to the powerful U.S. muscle cars like the Dodge Viper SRT-10, Grid's garage has only the best.
ROCK BAND 2 The music rhythm sensation has officially swept the nation. Guitar Hero may have started the charge, but Rock Band 2 is at the head of the pack right now. Grab a copy of Rock Band 2 and you've got yourself an instant party, regardless of who is in attendance. Boys, girls, parents, and grandparents will all "get" the simple yet powerful gameplay. If you're looking for a game to introduce new people to the world of videogames, Rock Band 2 is the place to start.

Go to www.fable2.com, and start the puppet show. Complete the puppet show to get various items in the game. You collect the items in the Guild Hall, in the chest by the Cullis gate. To get all the items, use the following directions:
Book and Dye: Left + Evil + first option + Evil + third option Doll and Tattoo : Down + Good + third option + Good + first option Three Piece Chicken Suit: Left + Evil + first option + Good + second option Easy gold
Buy some real estate, such as a food vendor stall or house. Once the real estate is purchased, adjust the rent/profits price to 100% of their default by clicking on the property paper on the side of the property. Save the game once the price has been raised. If you are connected to Xbox Live, disconnect as that will automatically update the clock and date. Exit to the Xbox 360 Dashboard, and access the clock. Adjust the date and time. For best results, adjust the clock as far ahead in time as possible. For example, if the saved game date is June 1, 2008 at 12:00 a.m., adjust the clock to December 31, 2028 at 11:59 p.m. Then, reload the game, and select "Continue". Once the game loads, wait a few seconds. You will see a large lump sum suddenly appear over your character's head. This is the money that you have accumulated in your "absence" from playing the game. Save the game. If you have Xbox Live, the easiest way to repeat this is to sign onto the service. Once the clock automatically resets to the correct time, save the game, quit, and repeat the trick. This works because the game gives you gold every five minutes in real time whether or not you are playing the game or have it turned off.
Once you have acquired enough gold in Bowerstone Market from the Blacksmith job, go to the Bowerstone Slums, and buy the most expensive weapons from the weapon trader. Next, go to Fairfax Gardens, and sell them to one of the wandering merchants (must be a weapons trader). You will gain over 30% in profit. Repeat this process as many times as desired.
When playing the game for the first time, you may be prompted to update it with an online download. Do not accept this download, and continue to play the game. This trick must be done with an unpatched game. When you reach Bowerstone Market, do not walk to the clock tower. Instead, do the Blacksmith job until you have a decent amount of gold (15,000 to 20,000 gold recommended). Quit the job, and buy only the cheap houses in Bowerstone Market or Bowerstone Slums. Rent out those houses with 0% added to rent. Once done, save, and quit the game. Go to the Xbox 360 Dashboard when offline. Go to your system settings, and set the date to thirty days or one month later. Start the game again. Select the appropriate saved game file, and continue. After the game resumes, you should receive a large sum of gold from rent. Continue to buy and rent out more houses, and set the system time one month ahead until you have about 4 million gold. You can now buy all properties in Albion and eventually get the "Ruler Of Albion" achievement.
Note: This trick requires the full download of Fable 2 Pub Games. Play that game until you have an extremely high debt (any amount, but you can only do this trick once -- so a very high number is recommended). Then, start Fable 2. This trick must be done with an unpatched game; do not accept any online updates. Go to the Bowerstone town square, and make enough gold to buy the cow and Corset Inn (for example, by blacksmithing). After you buy the inn, go into Fable 2 Pub Games, and merge your Fable 2 character with the character that has the extremely high debt. Save the game, then return to Fable 2. You should gain all the money you owe in debt as gold because you now own the inn that one of the game masters is in.
In Westcliff, when Barnum wants you to invest in his project for 5,000 gold, do so. In approximately ten years Westcliff will not be poverty stricken or slummy; it will be wealthy, and he will give you 15,000 gold.
Easy love
An easy and fast way to get people in love with you, male and or female, is to buy the "Noble" clothes from the tailors. Put on all the clothing, and almost everyone will be in love with you. The clothes will increase their attraction to you by a large amount. This is useful for the "Till Death Do Us Part" quest because the "lover" should be instantly in love with you. You should not have to worry about making them love you. It does not look the best on your character, but everyone will love you.
