The 360 Recommendation Thread - What Game Should I Get? *56k* (Updated 13/06)

pick 2 of the following for me to get (they are in random order)...

1. Mass Effect

5. GTA 4

I like games that last a long time either in multiplayer or single player( I have xbl)

I can vouch that these 2 are good, having owned and played both.

1. Mass Effect

2. Bioshock

3. Halo 3

4. Burnout Paradise

5. GTA 4

I like rpgs.. shooters...and racers(obviously since those are the choices) I have played all of those games at one point or another and they seem cool and i cant decide

Also I already have call of duty 4 so dont bother saying to get cod4 over halo 3 or something like that

tell me what you think...i'm up for other suggestions too

skip on Bioshock. It's good, but not worth spending $60 for. Halo 3 is okay as well, though i personally don't play it that much anymore and kind of regret getting it. i tried the demo for Burnout and it was pretty sweet. i guess it comes down to Mass Effect and GTA4. i haven't played those two, but both have lots of content and they sound like the kind of games that could last you forever

GTA IV or Ninja Gaiden 2?flowdee79

Tie!

I agree. GTA IV and Mass Effect FTW! But Bioshock rocks too.

i have 800 MS points...what do i get?!?!

i was thinking either Outpost Kaloki X or Halo 3 map pack...any ideas?
either a good 800 point game or 2 good 400 point games?

[QUOTE="flowdee79"]GTA IV or Ninja Gaiden 2?grimybrit

Tie!

Which one should I get first? They are both so tempting!

Lego Star Wars is a good game for the 360, and it's for any age...

I like GTA 4, but I just bought Lego Star Wars the Saga...that game is a work of genuis...

Indiana Jones Lego should be good once it comes out in June...

but I just bought Lego Star Wars the Saga...that game is a work of genuis...

mfortune

Lego Star Wars are great games, and they're only $50...but make sure to get the complet saga it's the best

It depends really. With GTA4 you'll be able to have a nice laid-back game-playing session. With NG2 you'll have hours of frustrating attempts to defeat those ridiculously difficult bosses, pinpointed with random dismemberments.

should i get orange box or devil may cry 4 i know there two different kind of games but i know i would have fun with either of them. What do u think?warj87

orange box, since its only like $25 and still a really fun game. TF2 is lame though

I am buying two games next week. One will be Ninja Gaiden 2. I havent decided on the other. Its betwen GTA4 and COD4(Rented it and loved it)?

GTAIV or COD4?

kingcobrasoccer

i know ill prolly be all alone on this one but trust me, get COD4...rent GTAIV....COD4 multiplayer is a lot better, but still, idk its up to you, ive got 50+ hours in GTAIV so far, but also 24+ hours of COD4 multiplayer, plus the story missions on top of that!

Should i get mass effect or Bioshock?Albin0assassin

Tht's tough but mass effect if you want a game that will last longer.

Seconded. Bioshock's more a rent

I've been looking for a teamwork based shooter, while I do like running and gunning in Halo 3 and COD4, I need something new. I need a game that revolves around team work and communication as the younger crowd is usually drawn away from that. Rainbox six vegas 2, and quake wars are up there but are there any others?leonhead

You could try Team Fortress 2 (in the Orange Box), although that'd be much better on the PC.

I'm looking for some good xbox games(not 360 games) that are backwards capatible. No m games. I would like to have an rpg,or a good live game.My budget is 60$.bobthecoo9

The best RPG's I can think of are Knights of the Old Republic and, to a lesser extent, Jade Empire. You could also check out Psychonauts and Ninja Gaiden Black - they're not RPG's but they are pretty fun, and they're also available through the Xbox Live Marketplace. I'm not sure about Live games though.

Both are amazing games, depends whether you like RPG's or twisted FPS's ...though to be honest I would get both if you can as they are some of the best games for the 360, well ever...

I was thinking about getting Halo 3, COD4 , Bioshock mass effect or The orange box ,so which one is an over all more entertaining games please give honest opinions.

I have Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, Mass Effect and Rainbow Six: Vegas 2. I am looking for something new. I prefer shooters and have enough money to buy 2 games. PowerOfSoul

GEARS OF WAR IS YOUR GAME!!!

and since you have money for two games, get bioshock, it's 30$ and amazing

COD4 is my personal fave, but they're all v good

Mass Effect or GTA IV?kingcobrasoccer

Both? Hehe, seriously I reccommend getting both if you can.

Unless your love for NFS is unholy and banal, get Mass Effect. It's easily the better game, as long as you like RPG's.

i'm looking for a good co-op or multiplayer game (not live)

BIA: Hell's Highway's coming out... and Halo 3 can be fairly tactical if you use your mic... properly... unlike a lot of people.

OK Im looking for a game, possibly 2, to last me until the start of July. Then im going away for most of summer vacation.

I want a good fun shooter with solid singleplayer and decent online. Ive played rainbow 6 so much im sick and tired of it anddont want to even ear bout vegas 2. Lately ive been playing a bit of COD4, but thats pretty much the only game i play online now, so id lke something else for multiplayer. Ive narrowed it down to:

Gears of War or Halo 3

Ive been a "hater" against both games when they came out, but now i actually want one of them. With GoW2 coming out later this year, i think maybe itll be cool to play the original., experience it before #2 comes out. I never really liked the first 2 halos, and would have no idea bout the story, but multiplayer is kind of a draw for me...I LOVED HalfLife 2 and Biochock, those are my 2 fav games of all time, and solid single player is amust. Ive been wondering about Geras online though... How is it, and hows the community? Im only really looknig for something to play a lot for about a month or so.

For my second game I want to get GRiD, i love racing games, Burnout Revenge and Midnight Club 3 fo rPS2 asre some of my fave games of all time, and i dont have nay racers for the 360 yet....

So it boil down to

Gears of War or Halo 3

and Grid.... (nless i were to get both the above but theyre both shooters and im thinking to get some variety with Grid....)

Gears of War=gorier, more tactical, more hardcore, and definetly gets you into the game, but your kind of on your own most of the time in the multiplayer. ( that's how i like it though, cuz there are some dumb people ou there :D)

Halo=more teamwork, but there's a lot of 9 year old annoying kids that will yell into the mike but you can just mute them, Halo's multiplayer was legendary when it came out, and i still love it, but there are a lot more haters now.

In halo's multiplayer you respawn, in Gears you don't tho, but its ok because each round usually goes by fast.

I STRONGLY reccomend you get both. They are both amazing and I'm sure you will love them both. I'd say Halo for begginners/relaxed and Gears for more hardcore gamers.

Hey guys i hope u'z can help... i'd like to get a fighting game but im not sure what one.

I'm stuck between VF5 or the new DBZ ???

I've played the demo of the new DBZ and i really enjoyed it, hell i played it for about 4 hours hahaha.
