Finally Got a 360! Game Suggestions?

I finally said, " whatever I' ll get the PS3 next year" and went up to EB yesterday. Now I' ve got a great 360 but absoultely nothing to play. It' s gonna be a while before I can hop on live for downloads, so I' m thinking about picking up an actual game. Any suggestions? I don' t have money for new so price is a consideration.

If you have a brother on par with you, get R* table tennis.

RRP in UK is £29.99 (can' t convert to american dollars)

It depends what kinda games you like... What kinda games DO you like?

There are two rules to success:

1. Never tell all you know.

Ahem....best game on the 360?....then again you did say to you. Eddie do you have a preffered genre?.

I think Eddie was in a rush when he started the topic... Probably gone to get
hooked up to broadband.

Or kick someone in the teeth for selling him an empty box...

I like just about everything except sports games. I' d rather go out and play that sort of thing myself. (things like SSX & table tennis don' t count) But if you' re making me pick though Dasher, I am a fan of shooters. Something that has moderate replay value. It doesn' t need to be Oblivion kind of replay, just something I won' t finish in a couple hours. (I got the 360 last night, and I' m already over half way through my friends copy of Halo)

Nah, I' m still here. I just have an insane amount of windows open, so I' m floating back & forth.

Doa4 is quite hard to beat the whole game and has replay value.....then again most of it is like online... i' d probably say either fight night or pgr3.....maybe?

Well.... You' re looking for games that don' t have the $59.99 price tag..

I think if you like shooters, you' ll like G.R.A.W (Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter).
Y' see the dangerous things with most of these games is that the replay value lies
in the online modes... Oblivion is the only game that doesn' t really have that..

If you' re a family kind of person, and you play games heavily with other people
then get...er..

Damn! The only game I can think of that is worth the $59.99 tag that' s not online
is Oblivion... Hmm.. ... Hm... HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM..... AAARGH!!

Wait until September-December for a better choice I think..

PLEASE PLEASE GET GHOST RECON!!!!!!!!!!!!

and make sure u never complete the VIP 2 down mission

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

Well, It' s not going to be an amazing amount of time untill I can hop on live, So I don' t think I' ll mind " paying for potential" . I was just looking at CoD:2 on ebay, I' ve only played the desert rats demo in wal-marts for the past 6 months, but it looks pretty good. I could secure a copy for 35, so I' m thinking about it. What' s the online like?

Edit: GRAW looks pretty good too. And I can get it for the same price as CoD:2. GHAAAAHH!!! the mental dilemma![:' (]

no dilemma mate

VIP2 is down YOU HAVE GOT TO SAVE THE PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

wait for all the demos to download and check each game yourself

wait for all the demos to download and check each game yourself

Good idea, but that would involve peeing myself with anxiety. I' m not sure I can hold out that long. :)

Edit: Who needs IM with threads like this?

My list goes as such in no particular order:
PGR3 ($40 US used)
Why? Because Burnout was nothing but a port so wait til next time if you desirse such racing...or wait for Flatout Next Gen.

Call of Duty 2 ($50 US used)
Why? Unless you have the PC version this game is ace compared to the other FPS on the console at the moment. There' s also Prey, I liked the idea and stuff, but couldnt get into the demo much so I dunno about the retail.

Elder Scrolls:Oblivion ($Unknown for used)
Why: Not only is it a great RPG, it' s friggin massive so it will feel up plenty of your free time. Its the best deal for your money as you can survive off this game for somtime until you get the funds for more purchases

GRAW (Used $45-50 Used)
Why: Awsome Single Player, Multiplyer is a mixed bag but improved if you gather the money for the Chapter 2 pack.

Dead Rising (new)
Why? Because I said so, money or not.

ORIGINAL: Mass X


Dead Rising (new)
Why? Because I said so, money or not.

Grr.

I really hate the fact that the americans always get games like 5 days even a month before ....getting a head start ...now you guys are gonna have a 5 day head start with gears aswell damn it.....and i' m still waiting for dead rising...

Dead Rising (new)
Why? Because I said so, money or not.

Agreed. I played the demo a couple days ago at a friends, and I instantly fell in love with the bowling ball. Zombie chunkin' rocks!

Rich americans maybe, poor-boy gamers like myself pick ' em up months after the US launch. So... if you think about it, that puts me on the same playing table as rich European gamers. W00t! I get to be rich, and European!

The option' s still there though....and i' m still jealous.

well, I guess theft is an option, but It' d take forever to explain to my parents why I had a copy of Gears of War stuffed down my pants.

i agree man THE AMERICANS dont deserve kingdom hearts 2

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

Yes they do!

Equivalent exchange: The Americans get Kingdom hearts and we suffere the
burden.

Well first of all i wanna congratulate you to having a next-gen console
Then im gonna recommend games like Oblivion,Table tennis,graw and kameo.
Ofc games like Pgr3,dead rising and Bf2 shouldn' t be missed either.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

Gah! Power outage, I' ve gotta log off and check all my precious electronic babies, so I' ll make this quick.

i agree man THE AMERICANS dont deserve kingdom hearts 2

Darn right we don' t.

Kingdom Hearts one sapped any amount of reason I had left, the scars are still here from sucking chest wound I got from the strange (for lack of a politer word) hmhm... tackle that all the Disney characters gave Sora in one of the spoiler-riffic trailers they' ve put out.

Whatever you do get COD 3 when it comes out!

I think you should wait that way you will have a wider choice but like you said it can be fraustrating.....oh yea for anyone interested....

Truly amazing 360 games are only coming out at the end of the year. Of the currently released ones, the only really exceptional one is prolly Oblivion since you get a LOT OF GAME on that disc (note, I' m not talking abt graphics and all that, but Oblivion is alot more versatile than other games...well until GTA 4 anyway...)

Screw you all, I' m joining Team Sega! Yeah it means I' m joining team Kikizo. I' m not going to be on much though, not untill I run ethernet into my room.

I' d go wireless, but there are computers in my house, that sadly, are not mine. And the owners don' t want to go wireless, not to mention I like the reliability of hardline.
