XBOX 360 Recommended Titles

[fushkkk]

Hey all:

So I got the 360 finally, and I'm looking for some recommendation on some games to purchase.

I bought Assassin's Creed and it's done now. I've got Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Forza 2, but I've beaten MUA on my Xbox and I'm not much of a realistic racing guy. Love the arcade styles, so Burnout will be a must buy for me.

Anyway, Do you guys have games that are must buys? I'd like a hack and slash to play with Skiff once he moves back home. But it doesn't have to be limited to that. Opinions are appreciated.

Thanks!

-d.

p.s. I"ve read through the posts, and it seems like Halo 3 and Bioshock are good spots to start.

get the Platinum Edition of Need For Speed: Most Wanted. (Oh BTW platinum selling games hit the edition for only 29 bucks)

It's a really well done arcade racer with large emphasis on running from the cops. they have a pursuit system that flows really well and interesting ways to run from the cops (and/or **** them up). I had a blast on the career.

CoD4.

I'm assuming Mass Effect even though I got it for xmas and haven't opened it yet. (sorry Thri)

I heard COD4 was the shit.

How is the online play?

Smokeh, think we can be friends on xbox live and shoot some bitches?

Halo 3
COD4
Mass Effect
Gears of War

You really can't lose with any of those titles.

Store clerks? I think that's rarer than a box of Rock Band!

[smokeh]

yeah, get GHIII so I can have an xbox 360 buddy to rock with.

Well I already have it for PS2 (with 2 controllers) and Ragin is bad at it, so I doubt he'll get it.

[ThriKreen]

Really? There's like lots of stacks of Rock Band around here. Saw like 4 or 5 at the EB by my apt.

And no, I'm not going to buy one for you.

I have to pick up one of those "asian party" wireless adapters off of ebay... but I will add you right away.

I don't understand how I can get a wireless xbox adapter off ebay for 60 bucks, in box, packaged and brand new (official xbox, just with chinese writing on it) for half the price of the one here. Crazy asians...what will they think of next?

probably because what you'll actually get is either a box full of post-it notes, or the cheapest POS shit you'll ever see. It probably won't work with your xbox, and if you have to do something with it, all the writing and menus will be in chinese.

It will probably give you SARS too.

I played marvel Alliance at my buddies all weekend, it was a pretty sweet game!

I also played a bit of Assassins Creed, this game seemed pretty sweet.

Bottom line is, I want a 360 and a PS2 now.

You forget that he lives in the Toronto area. Everyone here has already had SARS and is now immune! We're immortal!

I finally managed to get it at an obscure local video game shop. Big retailers dont have any. They said they got like 2 boxes from EA since launch.

Playing the drum rocks ;)

[Dark Knight Zer0]

I know that my store almost never has the 360 version in.

lots of PS3/PS2 versions usually

[Doc Wattson]

Why do you want a PS2 LBV?

Wanna go halfsies on a 360?

-Gary-

[Long Black Veil]

I dunno, cuz they're cheap and there are some good games for it.

Hafsies? Maybei f we were neighboors :(

I wish, maybe in my next life.

My wife is thinking of being a travelling therapist! We could move to NY and we COULD be neighboors.

CAN YOU IMAGINE THE THINGS THAT WOULD TAKE PLACE!?
