Need for Speed pretty much died after underground 2 in my opinion. Underground 2 was the best NFS game, followed by Underground 1. The series just keeps getting worse and worse. From what I have seen from Shift, this is true.

Hot Pursuit 2 was my favourite, back when it was all about production/stock cars. Shame NFS developed into rice racing.

Need for Speed pretty much died after underground 2 in my opinion. Underground 2 was the best NFS game, followed by Underground 1. The series just keeps getting worse and worse. From what I have seen from Shift, this is true. After UG2, they sacrificed sexy imports and good tracks for boring locals, exotics, plain tracks, and good graphics. NFS is now more like Grand Turismo than NFS.

One isn't better than the other. They are both great games. One is WW2, one is modern. They're both pretty much the same, but I'd recommend getting both if you don't have both.

Best: Samsung, Sharp.

Middle: Toshiba, LG.

Worst: Almost anything else.

I am getting a 32-37" Samsung or Sharp HDTV in a few months. You can't really notice a difference between middle and best, but the best one's I listed are generally made better and a bit last longer. Unless you have super-good eyes you won't notice a difference. Any of the brands I listed are good.

I dont want to stick this in a "which gameshould i get" thread because i think that it just give you games but not nice reasons and i just have 2 games so far (gear of war and halo 3).

so i want to know, which of your games you have enjoyed more in order to know which should i get, and im talking maybe old games but very elementary ones, im looking maybe for a rpg or a nice shooter, give me ideas plz.

im thinking on get maybe fallout 3 or fable 2, but i dont know if its very necesarie to buy the previous ones in order to enjoy them well.

thx for your help

Alright, so, I waited quite a long time to jump on the 360 bandwagon. Stupid me, 'cause now that I have one, I'm in love with it and am vaguely obsessed.

However, I've noticed that, as a friend of mine puts it, all of the major XBox titles "have got a lot of muscle on them". Games like Gears 2, the Halo trilogy, Fable I & II, while all extremely enjoyable and fun, all have more of a masculine, high-graphic-content, adrenaline rush feel to them. And most of the new and upcoming titles all seem to be major shooters, horror based games, or something that is, again, more muscular. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE these games, but I like to vary my gameplay, A LOT. I'm a gamer who spans all spectrums, from Kirby to Halo to Zelda to Unreal Tournament to World of WarCraft.

All the major games I see coming out that aren't going along the same lines as other XBox games are all licensed titles, which isn't always a bad thing, but usually if I'm not into whatever's being licensed, I won't like a game (I know there are exceptions to this so if there is a licensed game out there that is absolutely great, let me know, please).

So, since I'm sort of a new fangirl, and don't really know what all is out there, can you guys point me in the right direction to some lesser-known games that are still great without being so OOOMPH? I'm seriously considering getting Rockband II for the XBox for Christmas. Oh, and I'm looking into Lost Odyssey & Blue Dragon - but I wanted to get some more feedback before diving in headfirst with those two.

Here are the games I already own for the XBox:
Halo I, II, III
Fable II
Eternal Sonota
Beatiful Katamari
Naruto: Rise of the Ninja
Castle Crashers
Bomberman: Live

And to give you guys an idea of what I'm after...some of my favorite games are: Tetris, the Legend of Zelda series (probably why I like Fable so much), Final Fantasy series, any Kirby game, Command & Conquer, WarCraft III, Secret of Mana, Puzzle Quest, Pokemon (shut up, now), EverQuest 2, World of WarCraft, any Need For Speed game, MarioKart, and well, I think you guys have the idea.

So, please, keep in mind, this isn't a "What good games are there for the Box" thread. This is a "What games are there that aren't stereotypical, shiny, muscular XBox games"?

And I've already checked out the "What Game Should I Get" Sticky thread, and once again, it seems all the major titles everyonet alks about are all the stereotypical XBox titles, save for the ones I already have and a couple of other.

I bought my 360 december 2007, and it gave me my first rrod in september, then it took 2 weeks to get it back, then it took 2 weeks to get rrod again, and now im waiting for it to come back.

I always take good care of my things, so its not my fault, just microsofts lousy repairs and hardware inside the 360.

So bought fallout 3 on the pc and thought well i'll play it with a wireless 360 controller on my tv.

DAMN that was a bad idea. seriously you can't aim properly. The vats system is cool but you can't use it all the time with lots of enemies and so have to resort to manually aiming your gun. except its a nightmare.

is it just me having a bad time with a controller?
