I have the Orange Box, and it's really fun, but in my opinion, CoD4 is the best on that list. I was in the beta, and it's one of the best shooters I've ever played, and that's my area of interest. Orange Box has great singleplayer, but the multiplayer is sort of shallow, as there are only 6 maps, and each map is only able to play a single game mode. Assassin's Creed should be awesome as well, but you never know. CoD4 is a sure bet though, as I've heard they made an awesome singleplayer to go along with the phenomenal multiplayer. Hope that helps, I know where you're coming from, I'm also limited on cash (well I was, just got a new job).
I never played the Halo 3 beta (don't care for the Halo series anymore), nor did I play any of the other Call of Duty games, which I'm regretting now, because the CoD4 beta is the best online game I've ever played, due to the sheer fun of the game and how awesome stabbing people and calling in for reinforcements is. My favorite game is Rainbow Six: Vegas fyi.
Well I got mine on the 21st, all thanks to an AWESOME friend that camped out with his mom, and bought 2, then sold me one., but my proudest moment was the day after that, when I took it to school and played it on the big projector in my spanish class, WITH my spanish teacher and my friends. As it turns out, he's a lefty for some things, and he's pretty good at baseball!
*edit* the 21st of November btw (3 days after release)
All these people saying that the online will be the fall of the Wii are the same people that said the graphics would kill it. It seems that these people are wrong, because even with the Xbox360 getting a 1 year head start, the Wii has sold about half the number in 3 months. Same thing with the DS and the PSP, which btw is pissing me off cause I can't find a DS lite or Wii controller within 200 miles.
Thank god europe is getting a proper box, its like the metroid prime hunters DS game, US got a cardboard sleeve, and europe got a regular DS case :)havokmaster
I guess that makes sense. Oh well, we will enjoy our head start on the gaming :P
