I know you folks probably get this a million times. But I looked around here in the forums, and surfed around gamespot.com for awhile, and couldn't find anything.

I'm in the market for a new 360 game, but I don't know what. All I know is I want a fairly new game with good graphics and a cool storyline. If you want, here are examples of games I am playing on occassion/just finished playing: Oblivion, MLB 2k7, Tony Hawk games, Halo, Gears of War...

So I'm open to any genre. Suggest away.

I don't have XBL. I did, but I went to college, so I cancelled my account since I can't use it there anyway. From my experience, Rainbow Six games have little to no storyline at all...

If someone actually read my post, I specifically mentioned STORYLINE as an important factor. Most of the suggested games have zero storyline.

Does anyone who actually read my post have a suggestion?

I'll get bashed for this, but whatever. Enchanted arms.

It took me a good 40 hours to complete, and I thouroughly enjoyed it, although i am J-rpg happy but still. As long as you get past the first hour or so with the super annoying makoto, then it's all good. The best part is the battle system, it looks complex but takes little time to get used to. A good game. Cheep now too.

 I also would recommend Enchanted Arms. And like the person above me said, once you get pass the first part of the game, and you leave the school, its pretty much good from there. If you don't like Japanese RPG turn based system, this is not the game for you. But if you do, its a good story and a long adventure.

Turn based games aren't really my thing, and I already own Splinter Cell Double Agent actually.

I'm starting to realize maybe there isn't a new game out there for me yet...if not, are there any anticipated releases this summer that I don't know about?

If you are looking for story i understand that too human will have quite a good story. All the norse mythology might make it pretty intersting. Or if you are willing to wait a while there is mass effect.

After finding my old Return to Castle Wolfenstein game for my computer, I decided that I want a WWII game. WWII games have always held a special place in my gaming heart for some reason, and I haven't played one in a couple years.

I was looking at Call of Duty 3, but I also found Hour of Victory. Hour of Victory comes out in June, but if would not be getting a new game until July anyway, since I am a poor college student and that is when my birthday is.

I realize that it is hard to choose between a game that is out and a game that isn't out because you don't have all the information about HoV yet, but what would the gamer community hear suggest? Should I get CoD3, HoV, or another WWII game? Preferably, the newer the game, the better; I have a thing for up-to-date graphics.

Well, just to re-emphasize the Rainbow Six Vegas suggestion, there is a story line there. There's even a cliffhanger ending. Rainbow Six Vegas 2 anyone?

Well, just to re-emphasize MY POSTS, I am not looking at Rainbow 6, so stop talking about it please.

I am looking at WWII games. CoD3, HoV, or any other that I don't know about? Suggest away, in the WWII genre please. I'm sorry if I seem impatient here, but it kind of bothers me that people either don't read my posts that serve to update my search for a game, or just disregard what I say and post about Rainbow 6 anyway.

So, WWII. Preferably a newer game, and it doesn't have to be out yet, but at least coming out in the next month or two.

i AM really LOOKING FORWARD TO hOv. cod 3 WAS KINDA A "MEH" WWII game. I am the biggest sucker for WWII games ever. So I'd recommend waiting for HoV or BiA HH, or even Moh Airborne (I would wait for a couple revews due to previous MoH games).

Dude your frustration is understandable, but NO games have ANY story anymore. It kills me that devs are forgetting that a good story can make a good game epic (MGS for example). So yea, good luck with that, if you find one let me know...

Dude MGS is one of my favorite all time games...I think it would make a great movie.

Anyway, thanks for the input on CoD3...I think I'm going to wait for HoV

Do you people read my posts? I'm just curious. No sports games, no racing games, no Rainbow Six, no Oblivion like games.

 

WWII. If you do not have input on a WWII shooter, then do not post here.

good graphics and good story?

Conker:Live and reloaded is your answer. 

P.S. Just because it's an xbox game doesn't mean you can't enjoy it in the year 2007.

by asking for WWII games you severly limit your chances of finding something good, but thats just MY opinion. CoD2/3 are you only choices now. but hour of victory, brothers in arms, and medal of honor airborne come out later this year so you can always wait for those

lol just leave now while you still have a little bit of your sanity left. just wait until hour of victory comes out and make your decision then. there's no point in thinking about this now if your going to be getting it in july.

Actually there is a good deal of logic by thinking about it now. If I decide go to for CoD3, I can get it from my extended family for an early present when they come to visit for memorial day, or if I decide on HoV, I'll wait until July.

Anyway, I understand that this limits my choices on games (obviously), but I'm just craving WWII. What can I say, I enjoy killing nazis.  Besides, I initially opened my game search to just about everything, and nothing really caught my eye, despite all the Rainbow Six fanboys that swarmed in here.
