I bought an Xbox 360 again.

Post by Jeeba Jabba »

And now I'm broke!

I bought Halo 3, which I've already beaten, but am going to try to beat it on Legendary co-op with a friend tonight.

As I don't have an internet connection at home, I can't get Xbox Live and exhaust myself with what I'm sure would be assloads of fun on Halo 3. So, What are some other great games out right now that I really shouldn't pass up? I havent had a 360 for a year, so I'm a bit out of the loop. Another reason I bought it was for some amazing looking upcoming games, like Jericho and GTA4 (and I also wanted Madden 08), but what about some sleeper titles that I couldn't go wrong with buying?

GoW and Dead Rising are two good ones, both of which I'm going to be selling as soon as I test Dead Rising as it didn't like my friends 360 or his brother in laws. Worked fine on mine and it's scratch free aside from a minor one on the outer edge.

Once I get enough money to pay off all my winter wii game purchases I am going to start saving up for a 360. NCAA football games make me drool and the wii doesnt have them :cry:

Lately I've been playing Stuntman Ignition (doesn't look terribly impressive, but fun) and Stranglehold. I've been playing Bioshock a bit but these have already been mentioned. So yeah, I'd say give Stuntman and Stranglehold a look.

I've had Gears Of War since I got my 360 back in January and it's still my most played 360 game. Get that.

Ninety Nine Nights is a decent Dynasty Warriors clone and can be found for pretty cheap.

Oblivion, but chances are you've probably played the shit out of it already on PC.

Crackdown is a decent GTA clone and can be found for cheap used now that the Halo 3 beta is done with.

Quake 4 is pretty good as well, and it comes with Quake 2.

Blue Dragon + Eternal Sonata would be system sellers for me if the 360 was about $100 cheaper. One more amazing exclusive RPG and I'm sold.

Or, you know, he could be some place that doesn't qualify as "home."

If you don't have an internet connection, you're screwed with some games. Halo 3 for example requires a system update before you can play it.

I *hate* how "consoles" are turning into computers, in a sense with software updates.

Call of Duty 2, one of the best war games of all time, and much better than COD3.

In other news kiddies are still enjoying using a GameShark to cheat online with Socom 2.

Is it Arika's TGM4 or something else?
