The Icon Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 I, as some may have noticed, have being singing the praise of Sony here as of late. Today however I decided screw Sony why wait for PS3 when X-360 is already available. So on the way home from work I purschased said Microsoft console. It came with a free game Rumble Roses, not half bad better than the PS2 version at any rate, but I am wondering what game to buy as my first (non free) game. I don't play sports games or car games so they are out. I already have Tomb Raider legends for PS2 so there is little point in getting that. That leaves... ...Well that's what this thread is for what are you playing / Enjoying. Oh just one last thing is The new Elder Scrolls worth getting, is it as good as the PC ES games?

Guest Nicole Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Condemned is a good game, a little short maybe but worth playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Al Stevens Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Here's some from what i have played: Fight night 3.... It looks great and it's a fun game to play. Also career mode is great as well. Ghost Recon: Advance Warfighter.... Great game, Single player is fun and also there is some fun in multiplayer mode. Football manager If you liked the PC verson then this is an ok conversion Road To Germany 2006: Ok i guess playes like Fifa as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MrFill Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 PLEASE tell me you got the version with the hard disk in it. If you like RPGs, Elder Scrolls: Oblivion is a good game, but kinda known as Grand Theft Horse as you end up stealing horses quite often...

Guest MojoPogo Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Oblivion is freakin ace! And you get to chop up midgets. What more could you want from life? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LUKE Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 The new Hit man game is good. Oh and get on xbox live as it gives most game a lot longer play life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Icon Posted May 27, 2006 Author Share Posted May 27, 2006 I decided to get Hitman Blood Money and Elder Scrolls. Yes I did get the full hard drive version Fill. I don't intend to use it online Luke, My PC and 360 are in different rooms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ravenmark Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Fight Night is friggin awesome. World Cup 06 is pretty decent while you are waiting for Pro Evo 360. Tomb Raider is good but VERY short. Kameo is a nice little game and pretty difficult. Elder Scrolls wasn't my thing, but it looks beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MojoPogo Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Why has noone mentioned PGR3, the best looking game in existence? Its just brilliant, frankly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anime Otaku Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 PGR3 and Oblivion are great, so is Madden 06 but it doesn't have the superstar mode or the Madden Cards of the PS2 version. Also Blazing angels is a good WW2arcade shooter. Also get yourself a wireless router and the wireless add-on for the XB360 though the adaptor is about £50-60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MojoPogo Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 I dont think EA have really made the most of the 360s potential with most of their initial releases to be honest. When the inevitable sequels come along, i suspect we'll see a pretty big jump in content and quality. But really, they should have just put a little more effort in.

I think the reason people haven't mentioned them is THIS: I don't play sports games or car games so they are out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Icon Posted May 30, 2006 Author Share Posted May 30, 2006 Mr Fill as usual is paying attention. Actually though I do like Golf games, is there any of those available? oh BTW I am using it online as a few of you already know, I have added several of you as 360 friends.

Guest MrFill Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 There's a Tiger Woods game, either out already or coming out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Icon Posted May 30, 2006 Author Share Posted May 30, 2006 Don't you mean the other way around? Games are usually more fun to play with other people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyndorf Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 No, I mean it as it's written. The online lag is dreadful. No matter who you play, where they're from and whatever their connection is, you can't escape it. The onscreen visuals are at least 3 seconds behind the joypad. So you take a shot and you have to wait for it to register, by which time all power/direction has been lost and more often than not, you end up in the rough, through no fault of your own. Saying this, I haven't played it for a while, so maybe EA have patched their online server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
