Xbox 360 - Must have games?[views:9702][posts:17]_______________________________ [Dec 27,2007 5:03pm - Timma ""] So I'm finally getting my shit together and am probably gonna be purchasing one of these electronic video gaming consoles pretty soon. The package deal at Best Buy gives me Marvel Universe and Forza 2 which I'm assuming SUCK because they're included with the system. Anyone have any suggestions for a must have game I should get right off the bat? |
| _______________________________ [Dec 27,2007 5:07pm - Pires ""] actually Marvel Universe is pretty good...never played Forza but heard that was good too... Must have games list: Mass Effect Halo 3 Elder Scrolls IV:Oblivion BioShock Dead Rising Rainbow Six:Las Vegas |
| _______________________________ [Dec 27,2007 5:09pm - Timma ""] I remember reading somewhere that Dead Rising started out as a screen test for developers to see how many NPCs they could fit on screen at once. Seems like some pretty mindless fun though.... |

| _______________________________ [Dec 27,2007 5:18pm - Timma ""] I'm not big into RPGs really, but I heard Mass Effect was really good. |
| _________________________________ [Dec 27,2007 5:29pm - sxealex ""] I hate npcs. they are fucking dumb in 99% of the games ive ever played. |

| _______________________________ [Dec 27,2007 8:43pm - Pires ""] i dont know...I'm a huge zombie/horror film buff...and this game was pretty fun, and you can find it used for $20 now (Dead Rising) Mass Effect isn't your normal RPG...If you're skeptical on it, at least rent...it definitely is a top 3 game of 2007 IMO |

| ___________________________________ [Dec 27,2007 10:37pm - archaeon ""] are you going to be playing online? |
| __________________________________________ [Dec 28,2007 2:17am - thegreatspaldino ""] Forza 2 rules, it is a great game actually. marvel as well isnt a bad game at all. Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, Lost Planet, Gears of War, Eternal Sonata, Dead Rising, Elder Scrolls Oblivion i guess, ghost recon advanced war fight 2, Orange Box, GTA4 (when it comes out)... there are more that i cant think of. |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 28,2007 4:43am - HappySunshineBaby ""] The Orange Box, just for Team FOrtress online and portal. |

I used to play the orginial Team Fortress for hours upon hours upon hours....got the ill snipe skillz on 2fort. I'll definitely be playing online too. As far as Xbox Live goes, you can play online with Silver but you need Gold for something else? Totally confused on that front.... |
| ________________________________________________________ [Dec 28,2007 10:35am - thuringwethil at the library ""] no, Xbox Live Silver lets you download content like demos and arcade games Live Gold is that PLUS the online multiplayer you get a trial period for Gold when you buy the console, something like a month. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 28,2007 10:38am - Timma ""] how much is Gold monthly? |
| ________________________________________________________ [Dec 28,2007 10:58am - thuringwethil at the library ""] I think around five bucks. You can buy 12 months for something like 50 bucks. |
| ________________________________________________________ [Dec 28,2007 11:00am - thuringwethil at the library ""] get Elderscrolls Oblivion, BTW I think the Game of the Year edition has extra content (Shivering Isles?) Bioshock as well |
