I'll probably be getting a game of my choice this holiday season and i desire a game with a strong Xbox Live experience. It doesnt take a genius to know there are plenty available this time around, but i need help choosing. Here are a few of my choices and what i think of them.

Fallout 3 - looks like a great role playing/adventure game that i would usually enjoy but i dont know much about its online play. seems mostly co-op?

Left 4 Dead- I loved the way CS played and from what i hear this game is made for live/online. Is there a ranking system and/or perks that seemed to be lacking from CS?

Far Cry 2 - This game looks sweet and just the concept and setting of it intrigue me but among the others it never really stood out

Gears 2 - Just started playing Gears again the other day and it reminded me how great it was, but for me playing ranked matches seemed so bland and pointless. New ranking system?

CoD - I regret not getting CoD4 last year but now theres a new one and all my friends will be playing again which makes me want this, but idk if another WWII game is for me

Dead Space - A big ? about online play, although i liked the demo

If anyone could tell me more info about these OR ANY other game you might recommend, it would be much appreciated.

Dead Space doesn't have any online. I've been playing Gears of War 2 mostly, even with its flaws.

Lol. Ok Fallout 3 and Dead Space have no multiplayer. As for the rest, I'd say Left 4 Dead is the most fun, minute to minute. I love the comradery (sp?) when your survivors, and the how devilishly fun it is to play as the infected. But you can't go wrong with Gears 2 or COD.

Fallout is a great game except there's no co-op or online play.
Left 4 Dead is probably best played with friends.
Far Cry 2 isn't for everyone but only the single player and map editor is great.
Gears 2 has a lot of new additions and to some the multiplayer is better this time around.
COD is always good, I've only played the beta for the new one.
Dead Space is single player only, but a good one at that.

From this list Left 4 Dead no doubt. Although I am going back to Halo 3. ALot of the new shooters take hardly any skill and I just hate Gears 2 online. It still takes a while to find a match. Call of Duty 4 I loved and I thought CoD WaW was great for the first week. But really, the spawns just p iss me off. But from the list, definetly Left 4 Dead.

CoD: WaW and Left 4 Dead.
