The recommendation thread wasn't able to help me find the I game I want to get. At the moment of this post, I have Call of Duty 5, and thats all. I'd prefer to get a FPS game so here are my choices, Left 4 Dead, Fallout 3, Halo 3, Bad Company, Resident Evil 5, Gear of Wars 2, and... any other hit FPS with awesome multiplayer Xbox Live game. Which one? Explain your answer please, =P

You wouldn't be disappointed with any of those games really. Fallout 3 has no multiplayer though but is still a phenomenal game.

The Orange Box is $20 new, and has 5 extremely well made First Person games.

The only one with MP though is Team Fortress 2, which is still really nice, but nowhere near as good as the PC version.

I cannot stress how great a deal it is for $20 though.

I doubt that you'd like Falout 3 anyway. It is NOT an FPS. It is an RPGthat just so happens to havea first-person perspective and guns.

I'd have to recommend either halo3 or bad company. Halo 3 is probably the most accessible shooter on the 360 and would take you no time to get a handle on things and start to get good. Bad company has a ton of vehicles and the campaign in it is really fun and hilarious.

Your Top 3 Choices are...

COD 4

GOW 2

RSV2

I'de say Halo 3, but the campaign absolutely blows lol, so the only replay value is online. :D

Truth, too many people walk into F3 thinking its another FPS, those people are in for a rude awakening. Its an RPG throughout.

Yeah. I love tosee people say things like "Fallout 3 is the worst FPS ever". I bust out laughing every time.

Yes it's a really good game and I do not think it has cartoonish graphics (maybe very very little) but it can still look very gritty at times. Anyways it shouldn't really matter! It's fun

Halo 3, RSV 2...Gears 1 or 2. IMHO Left 4 Dead isn't that great at all. Beat the four campaigns, usually only fun with friends. Then you go online and beat the same campaigns but every other "turn" you get to be a zombie, which was a disappointment for me.

All of those games are good, but I especially enjoy Left 4 Dead and Gears of War 2. They're all good, though.

Rainbow Six Vegas 1 or 2, G.R.A.W or G.R.A.W 2 - Regardless of which game you get out of the four I've posted, you'll have endless amounts of fun.

I'd say Halo 3. It's fun and easily accessible. I would probably say Gears 2, but ever since the second update and the "balancing" I've become incredibly disappointed with the multiplayer.

I recommend The Orange Box. The Half-Life games are all tons of fun with an engaging story and likeable characters, Portal is one of the best puzzle games that I've ever played,and TF2 is an outstanding multyplayer game.

Fallout 3. But it's not all shooter. It's 3/4 RPG. Still amazing though.

Vegas 2 is excellent and has nice graphics. Other good shooters are Halo 3, Turok, Battlefield: Bad Company, Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway.

If you are not worried about multiplayer, then get Fallout 3. It is an amazing game that is really fun to play, is a good value for your money, looks great, and will last you a really long time. I suggest it over all of the games on your list.

If you don't want this game because it doesn't have multiplayer, then I suggest either Gears of War 2 or Rainbow Six Vegas 2. Both are fun games and have great multiplayer. However, neither of them are as amazing and enjoyable as Fallout 3.

Halo 3 has a very good multiplayer part and is a very popular game, my first choice.Gears of War is a very good game but the multiplayer part was some frustrating parts. gamespot has some good reviews on the games you are considering so go there and check it out.

Defo invest in the Halo trilogy! Halo 2 online was and still is one of my all time fav games! Halo 3 not as good but every real gamer should own the trilogy. Bad company is worth a look in, campaign is easy but a good looking game with some funny humour and online is a good laugh. If you have CoD:WaW you need CoD4 in your life.........................NOW!

You don't have Halo 3??? Get Halo 3. it's a must have for any 360 owner, and Left 4 Dead, it gets old after a while but during the time you're playing it's a blast.
