What Should Game I Get?
« on: January 15, 2006, 06:21:00 PM »

I so far have Call of Duty 2 beaten and I love it and I also have Perfect Dark Zero LE but I quickly sold it as I really didn't like the game but I did beat it. In your opinion what game should I get, or should I wait until better games will come out. I'm an all-out shooter fan but once in a while I like action games. Whoever has a game and likes it tell me about it.

Go back and beat Cod 2 on Veteran. Then go out and rent whatever games b/c there is nothing really in my opinion worth purchasing. Next game I probally get is fight night round 3.

go rent for a while if your local renting stores have 360 games in stock, TRUST ME, GO RENT FIRST B4 you spend 65.00 on a game you may not want to keep, so far i guess im keeping the games i bought cause the damn stores are only giving 30.00 tops trade in value, im not one to take a 35$ hit especially whaen you cant even trade in 2 game4s and get one in return, screw them, but i learned my lesson and will  rent for a while

if you've beaten both games then why do you only have 380 points on your gamer card

I didn't play any more in Perfect Dark zero, because I don't like the multiplayer at all, the levels are too big for such small games, 95 percent of the time I can't join any ones games. When I beat Perfect dark zero it only gave me 10 gamer points for petes sake. Right now I am trying to accomplish all the accomplishments in call of duty 2 and after Im done i'll go rent.

Really, don't listen to this crap.  I can say having played/owned all but two of the titles released thus far  (Gun and Tony Hawk.  Two straight ass ports).  The second best title after COD is Kameo.  The next best game, after Kameo, (whatever you fav type of game is) comes in a distant third.  

I might get blasted for this but Kameo (after COD) is the only game that looked next gen, Played next gen(except for that crap water creature), and felt next gen.

If you like adventure, get Kameo.  The demo is the crappiest looking level, so don't let that fool ya.

Oh yea, I thought PDZ sucked ass.  Some level looked awsome, some looked like crap.  They were all boring.  Online was Okay (might be awsome but I was so jaded after that single person waste of time).

despite Gun and Tony Hawk being straight ports... they're still lots of fun. The only thing disappointing is their graphics, but even their better than Xbox 1's (if only slightly)...

Kameo is a great game too...

it really depends on what you like. Considering you have COD2 and PDZ it sounds like you only really care about FPSs..

int that case pick up Condemned (easily one of the best titles available, definition NEXT GEN too). Also try Quake 4, though I hear mixed feelings on that one as well...

King Kong, Gun, Need For Speed Most Wanted, and sadly Kameo are all games you should rent rather then buy as they can be completed within a weekend.

I would rent Condemned and I would download the demo for Q4 before you buy it. Condemned is too short and no replay value - I finished it in a weekend. Q4 isn't worth the rental in my opinion, but that's what the demo is for.

Oh, and one other thing - Condemed gets old after a while - it's just looking for dead birds, metal pieces, and a pipe to bash the next thug.

My bad.  Condemed does look quite next gen.  Some people loved it, and while I love a good FPS, searching around and getting lost in the dark isn't my idea of fun sleeping.gif

My favorite games for the 360 in order are:

COD2
Kameo
Condemned
PDZero
Tiger Woods 2k6


Games that I've played but decided to stay away from are:
Quake 4
Gun
NFS:MW
PGR3
Madden 2k6
DOA4

Remember that these are just my personal opinions.  I know that people won't like the fact that I don't recommend PGR3 or DOA4, but personally I feel the games don't live up to my expectations of next gen.  The jaggies in PGR3 really ruin the game for me, and it doesn't have anything spectacular to make it stand out from other racing games (except for the accurate backgrounds).  I actually went to EBGames to buy DOA4, but decided to play it on their kiosk first.  I was immediatly turned off by how fake and cartoony everything looked, which I'd attribute to choppy animation and poor lighting.  The background scenery is stunning, but the gameplay hasn't changed much since the Dreamcast days.  Definatly a rental, but nothing I'd call worthy of my $60.

The games that I recommend are ones that I consider worthy of a full purchase, not just a rental.  If COD2 had a decent Live setup, it would be one of the best FPS's of all time.  First player is still very rewarding and offers a good amount of replayability. Kameo is next gen all the way.  Killer graphics, animation and sounds combined with a creative concept and great gameplay made this one of my favorites.  Condemned is honestly a scary game to play. Turn off the lights and turn the sound up, I swear you'll be jumping out of your seat and shouting like a little girly man.  The graphics are top notch and the forensic analysis makes it for than just a run and gun game.  PDZero is a fairly decent game, although I found the singleplayer campaign to be very unfulfilling and not much fun.  The multiplayer however is the best on the 360.  No lag and fun darkops games always keep me playing.  I also threw in tiger woods 2k6 because I like golf games when I'm relaxing and the courses look like pure tits. The water and grass effects are drool worthy.

everyone here has made some good points and opinions on what to suggest.  my suggestion?  DL all the demos you can (there are plenty including condemned and Q4 now) and whats not to DL rent, i do agree that if you like FPS try out condemned and Q4.  though opinions have been mixed on both i think they are both great titles.  condemned hasnt even begun to get old and Q4 is a great straight-forward shooter that doesnt try to be anything more.
