see, i have heard for years that the Halo series is the best, and i'll admit my ignorance here about the franchise. the few times i've played Halo, has been online and i'm easily the WORST in the bunch! I literally was in the first wave of players after the game came out at midnight a few Tuesdays ago. (Eastern Standard Time) and people were already incredible at it! how can that even be considered a NEW game?! shouldn't there just be uploads for the original Halo, if nothing has mechanically changed in the last year or 2?

Honestly, is Halo TRULY the BEST FPS out there or are the amazing graphicssingle-handedly holding it up? there were people online that first 20 minutes after the game came out calling me out for being a "know-nothing" when it came to this game! i'm not even planning to be online playing for a few months but there's GOTTA be something better than Halo.

and i fail to see the logic in the arguement that if i don't like Halo, then there's no hope for me in the FPS world! this is the reason i came to you all to begin with. i mean the gaming community just CAN'T start and stop with Halo.

how about all the World War II games, or BioShock?! (which is looking incredible!) just looking for suggestions OTHER THAN HALO! please help me in these conditions!!

You should probably try Bioshock. It's definitely a very forgiving game, since you don't really die when you get killed. If you can wait a week, the Orange Box is coming out. I think Half-life 2 is pretty easy on the easiest difficulty setting, and it's a great fps to get started on. Plus, it includes Episode 1 + 2 and Team Fortress 2.

What's different about the 40gb model besides the hard drive?

That was before Apple had that new marketing scheme of making things simple and stylish. If they made a console now, I think a lot more people would buy it. Maybe they could have some mac or ipod connectivity thing to make it different,

Either way, it'll have the same exact graphics and the same exact controller. Go with whichever your fanboy instinct tells you to take... if you have one.

If the ps3 had been $400, had the same lineup, and didn't have any non-gaming functions, I would have bought it. Seeing as it was $600, i went with a 360. The answer is yes.

Xbox 360: over 11 million owners who like violent games

PS3: a little over 4 million owners who like violent games

4 million potential buyers > 11 million??

Mods can bring all of the "hardcore" content back to UT3, and then there will be the hundreds of user-made maps and gametypes and full-conversion mods. Oh, I guess Halo 3 is much better because of the replay function.
