    Surely there is grounds to delete these spam posts? They obviously have no intention of giving anything to the Hexus community. Just spamming enough posts to join the leaderboard.

    Woot! Finally completed Enchanted Arms, the last boss fights were pretty challenging.

    congrats, I've just picked up the Darkness, but I intend to get back into Enchanted Arms soon, I was enjoying it before getting distracted by Gears

    The problem I had with EA is the same I have with all RPGS with random encounters, after a while they get on my nerves so much so I have to stop playing them for a while, I had EA since it was released, was one of the first games I got for my 360 and I've only just managed to complete it XD

    I did find an easy way of boosting my characters after I had trouble with the first of the final bosses, if you goto London, buy as many chips as you can afford, save the game, and keep playing roulette until you build up your chips to like 20k by betting on the 2:1 bets like red or black. Once you've got a decent pot, you can then place a max bet on around 10 specific numbers (say 1000 on every number between 5-15) to earn the big money. If you ever lose too many chips, simply reload it. You can then prize exchange two items that you can sell at the shop to get you cash. You can then use that cash to buy mega skill gems, rinse and repeat. Took away a lot of grinding, you can also get a support skill in the prize exchange that means you don't have to fight random encounters, came in very useful when I was doing the holy beast shrine.

    yeah, I've found that too (both the random encounters and the casino) I'm currently stuck in the mines, although when I go back to it, I'll prob get turned around and head the wrong way

    Re: HEXUS Xbox Live Leaderboard

    Moved up a few spots since I joined a couple of months back Done all I can with TDU now I think, I don't feel like driving another 2000 miles for that achievement and don't really like the online side of the play so I don't think I'll bother with the 2 MP achievements that I have left.

    Apart from that it was a very enjoyable game, played around 60 hours on it and it only cost me £10.05 off ebay

    I would agree TDU is a superb game however some of the later races and timed events can be a bit frustrating

    I thought the game was way to easy, I hardly ever failed a challenge and those I did were finished off on the 2nd try. I did the "Tour of the island" race first try, and the "Millionaire's challenge" first try again with 15 minutes to spare. After I had finished the game I just did as many of the achievements as I could.

    I really hope they make a 2nd TDU, there were a couple things that just let this one down imo, the handling was dodgy compared to most other racers, I found the bikes near to useless and did not enjoy using them at all. They felt like they were put in as an after thought to me. The online side of things could have done with a little more thought put in to it as well, the clubs are a nice touch but the actual race rooms lacked something. I guess it was an early game though and I'm a little late to the party.

    I agree the millionaries club and race of the Island were easy.

    The only race/challenge I stuggled with was the Trantula (sp?) challenge, the one with the winding road, loads of traffic and a 7:30 time limit

    Moved up to 16th after squeezing all I can out of PGR4. Still have 3 achievements left, guess I might be able to get the team domination one with a bit of luck.

    Bring on COD4, that's gonna be a nightmare on veteran :s
