Well, I was well and truly bitten by the bug, i've usually been a playstation man myself, but i can't/couldn't justify spending that much on a console.....
so offskies i went, PS2 in hand, to Game, trade in and got my xbox 360, with which i got a free copy of assasins creed.
I'm after recommendations now chaps for those 'must have' games....
I've already borrowed Gears of war, i've got forza motorsport on the way and i understand COD4 is a 'must have' at the moment, so those bases are covered.....
suggestions on a postcard please chaps :thumb:

halo 3 is brilliant. project gotham racing 4 is pretty good (it on sale at play.com) bioshock is truly amazing, just dont play it alone in the dark. are you going on line with it? its a must IMO. sooooo much more fun.

oh and save some pennies for star wars-force unleashed. will be out in the summer hopefully and the hype is high. any game where you play darth vaders padawan and create galactical misery has to be good!

COD4, Forza2, GOW, Rainbow 6, all awesome!

Halo 3 is cack IMO, the kind of game that takes a whole clip of bullits to kill anything etc,,
anyway, COD4 is the best game to get, PGR4 is class and on thursday go and get Rainbow Six Vegas 2,, and LIVE is a must.

Ok, put it this way, on COD4 on hardcore mode i can easily take out a whole team and if their are 2 or 3 chaps together i can kill them all before they know im there, on halo you dont have a chance against multiple opponants because you need so many bullits to kill someone, its way overhyped like its previous games.

I've not bought forza :lol: i've borrowed it, beauty of my best mate and brother having 360's is being able to swap games around....
i've just bought COD4, i've wanted that for aaaages anyway, as well as getting a 12 month subscription to xbox live (gold) i've already been online last night on Gears of War, brought memories of my youth flooding back.
so i've got Forza to play, GOW, COD4 and i'm about to buy Frontline Fuels of war :p
any more?

we'll have to agree to disagree cos i think halo is awesome. COD4 is better (online) i agree, but the brutes on halo wear armour, thats why you cant take them down as easily as normal guys.

Mass effect is a must if you like RPG with a FPS element to it its truly epic!
Oh and Bully is a great laugh....

:lol: no handbags being drawn here, each to their own not everyones gonna agree on what makes a good game. personally i dont see how being able to take town a team of enemies easily, on the games hardest setting, is a good thing. but as i say, everyone loves differnt things.

Loving Guitar Hero III, - getting a bit bored of the track list so going to purchase GH II, as the list is supposed to be better :)
COD4 is also brilliant :)
I got Mass Effect free when i brought mine, havent played it much as yet, but it does look very polished. It's a role playing game, my girlfriend said she'll probably enjoy that one

COD4 is Awsome, Forza Motorsport 2 is fan-bloody tastic!!! PGR4 is good but not brilliant, Burnout Paradise is good fun. Need for speed pro street is also good!!

im not a big fan of Pro Street, ok the drag racing is brilliant but the rest is shocking, you cant really tell what car has the edge when it comes to buying (unlike previous titles) and racing round a circuit on that is SHOCKING compared to Forza.....i rarely play that game :driver:

Pro evo and Forza 2. Forza 2 is great, unlike gran turismo you can drive most supercars and the gameplay is just crisp and fun, pro evo is great with mates.
I dont like gun games and all that but Call of duty is pretty cool, again great against your mates! :D
Fight Night Round 3
Assassins Creed
Gears Of War.

Kane and Lynch was terrible I traded it in for Ace Combat 6 which is a decent arcade flight sim if you like that sort of thing
