Competition - Frontlines: Fuel of War (Xbox 360)

Zardon · Feb 29, 2008, 10:55 AM

Frontlines: Fuel of War is an open world, infantry- and vehicle-based FPS (First Person Shooter) featuring advanced next-gen weaponry in a desperate, near future setting where controlling the planet's depleting fossil resources determines the ultimate fate of civilization. A global war for oil is being waged between two superpowers, the Western Coalition (US/EU) and the Red Star Alliance (Russia/China), and players will be instrumental in determining how the war is waged - and won. The single player campaign will focus on this powerful storyline as players' execute missions focused on non-linear gameplay, moving their frontline through enemy held territory.

Driver Heaven and Gaming Heaven has teamed up with THQ and we have several copies of the Xbox 360 game to give away, this competition is open worldwide, and as long as you have an Xbox 360 to play on thats all you need!

To enter all you have to do is post in this thread why you love action war games!

geraldmango · Feb 29, 2008, 07:19 PM

I love war games because without war would we have any peace? Who cares, lets frag !

IEMC · Feb 29, 2008, 09:00 PM

I love war action games because I don't plan to do any real combat in my life, and I need something to take the edge off.

~~werty316~~ · Mar 1, 2008, 06:34 AM

I love action war games because the violence and blood is neat.

mos2k · Mar 1, 2008, 10:09 AM

I love war games beacause whenever my trigger happy finger twitches i pick up my 360 controller and fulfil my fingers desire to shoot holes through enemy soilders...

Neshi · Mar 1, 2008, 01:16 PM

Being able to experience the action of war, the adrenaline rush when you make a hard but successful kill, going hard against hard with friends or on the internet. All that from behind the computer in my comfortable chair, I would say that is why I love action war games.

emmi · Mar 3, 2008, 04:41 PM

Playing action games is a way to have some fun and kill time.

slugbug · Mar 3, 2008, 05:53 PM

I love action and war games because they allow me to release my anger on all the 13yr old noobs playing on xbox live

By the way, when does this competition end?

Brutality · Mar 3, 2008, 07:32 PM

I'm sitting behind my PC, playing [insertFPSgamehere]. It makes me nervous and twitchy. My palms are sweaty, knees weak and I keep on forgetting. I don't know which button is for grenade, I only know how to spray and pray. In time, I gain confidence, I learn the tactics, I can strafe and dodge bullets. My aim is constantly getting better. Finally I'm able to shoot headshots!! It gives me a freedom to scream:" BOOM MOTHERF*CKING HEADSHOT!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOB!!!!" in my microphone. I have become the 1337.

That's what makes FPSes obtain so hard! THATS WHY I LOVE THEM!!!!

genieguru · Mar 4, 2008, 03:13 AM

ok my first contest

@zardon-Is the game region free,PAL or NTSC???
Cause my 360 only supports region free games or PAL games

I love war games because
1.Its totally awesome to destroy noobs on xbox live
2.It lets me know what war is like,without being part of one really
3.I get to destroy buildings,kill soldiers,throw grenades and fire rockets without getting arrested!!!!!
4.Anything goes in wars(except glitching ofcourse....)

BlueMak · Mar 4, 2008, 08:35 AM

At a time when it's less and less safe to letting not only your kids out play, but also yourself. At a time when laws and society make it more and more difficult assaulting your neighbours' castle, when it is almost impossible to have some good dirty, fattening time without risking your life. At a time when more and more people asking "war, what is it good for?". There is one simple answer-solution, ACTION WAR GAMES! Blasting heads, blowing up vehicles and burning down buildings like it is your god given right to do so, without any of the sins associated with the real thing and half the fat.

How can you not love them?

genieguru · Mar 4, 2008, 09:20 AM

I love wars games,especially on xbox live because:
1)Its fun to hear the screams of whining 12 year old after i blow his head off
2)Its satisfying to hear the trash talk of "the host" when i take him out from behind
3)And nothing beats the satisfaction of winning a war(even if its just a game) all be it in single player or multiplayer

GutterPunk · Mar 4, 2008, 12:19 PM

I like action games, especially war games because of the strategy and the ability to try and manipulate your enemy and win with the least amount of effort.

rogue_tomato · Mar 4, 2008, 06:48 PM

I love action war games because it allows me to vent out my frustration in a manner that will not hurt anyone else (including myself :P)

Al_Vampyre · Mar 4, 2008, 11:05 PM

I love action war games because livin' in the Frontlines, fuels my love of life!

RogueDOc · Mar 4, 2008, 11:14 PM

I love action war games because it gives me a chance to live a life of danger with out risking my life. I also get to meet and get to know people that also love to game to get away from life, and just enjoy them selves. The action gets the heart pounding, and the blood flowing. It makes me feel as though i am there.

bobletman · Mar 5, 2008, 02:31 AM

I love war games because your not just limiting to killing a couple of people. Instead you can kill lots of people in many different ways.

Exilon · Mar 5, 2008, 03:14 AM

I love action war games because we're all going to be drafted sooner or later.

Tril · Mar 5, 2008, 03:39 AM

I love action war games because they perfectly fit my limited attention span.

genieguru · Mar 6, 2008, 08:27 AM

i love war games on xbox live because u get to talk with u team much like a squad would in a real war
the team can setup tactics,use flanking maneuvers,use a decoy and so on and so forth

war games are hard not to love,especially when u are playin with other people

mos2k · Mar 7, 2008, 11:17 AM

I love war games because when the frontlines become crowded you can just send in your robot to clear it

The game is definitely geared towards your crowd

SFOSOK · Mar 10, 2008, 08:27 AM

I love war games, they let me pretend play war and kill people without the guilt all while slowly desensitizing me and my entire social group.

Son_of_Thunder · Mar 12, 2008, 12:58 AM

War games are great, better than women in fact. Simply put, when you mess up in an action game you don't have to buy the bad guys flowers.

nerdrock · Mar 12, 2008, 12:12 PM
