Eddie I am pretty sure that if it is coming out for download(which I knew) then it is most likely backward compatible.

Thanks Dan that is just another reason not to get the download, even though I wasn' t planning on doing it because I don' t want to waste the hard drive space.

I will most likely end up picking up Fable Lost Chapters sometime this weekend, but now I need to decide if I have enough time to devote to Mass Effect.

If you guys could help me out, what else is out there right now, I currently own or am(or will be) borrowing Bioshock, COD4, Halo 3, Gears of War, The Orange Box, Crackdown, and Beautiful Katamari(its Diehounderdoggins). I have Mass Effect in mind as I mentioned above, I have been told AC is a rent not a buy, other then that I am not a big racing game fan or sports fan, I like most other stuff, and am not really a graphics whore.

Any help or constructive comments would be appreciated.

Replace Katamari with Mass Effect and your list is golden. Also, Crackdown is fun, but its not a must-play.

Man I miss that song " Whats Golden" , it was on ATV Offroad Fury (2 or 3, cant remember).

For a game with cutesy appeal like Katamari has, I found its controls in the demo to be rather unintuitive. I was kind of looking forward to showing it to my girlfriend but then figured that it would be a bit frustrating for someone who doesn' t usually play games.

Oddworld: Strangers Wrath still not on the lsit?!
Also, as I never completed Breakdown on my old Xbox i thought I should on my 360, only to realise the game freezes every time I push " A" I think it was. So The BC aren' t always really BC.

I don' t own, nor do I plan to buy Xbox games. There are a few PS2 games I might buy though. Colossus, Twisted Metal Black and Killzone.

All of which work on the 80GB PS2.

I bought one of the launch PS2' s back when they were 500$ lol. It died on me and I didn' t want to buy another one since I was too pissed off at Sony(I had an Xbox and a GameCube). So I did miss a bunch of titles . My Ps2 died right when Kingdom Hearts came out, I didn' t get to finish the game. I played TMB and loved it, it' s a game I want to own. I completely missed Colossus, and Killzone. I mostly want to ply Killzone to expose myself to the story before Killzone 2. Anyone know if the PS3 runs the game well? I know the game choked on the PS2.

Actually I wonder what the frame rates of PS2 games are like on PS3 in general.

Frame rates are identical as they were on PS2.


ORIGINAL: Eddie_the_Hated

Absolutely none of these are amazing titles. If anything, The Third Age is the only thing I would consider buying if I saw it used somewhere. The rest of these are either total garbage, or good to pop in every once and a while if you already own them.


Baldur' s Gate: Dark Alliance was excellent.

And blood omen 2 is the worst game in the LoK series, for whoever the dumbass was that said it was good.

I still haven' t gotten ME yet, but am planning on picking it up when I can. Well Agent I never had an xbox so I think it makes sense for me to get some of the hits I missed. Colossus was fantastic in a lot of ways, my biggest problem was the main character was a lame and the ending was really weird, but the gameplay is fantastic when you can figure out what you are supposed to do. No God of War Agent?

I can' t say that I didn' t like this game because i never played it, but both my brother and my friend said is was awful. What I saw of it didn' t really look fun.

Rallisport 1 is BC, from the last update i think, no signs of Rallisport 2 though, which completely sucks as it was an awesome arcade racer for its time.
