So I'm looking for a new game to get for the 360. I'm thinking a good FPS but I'm open-minded. I really enjoyed Halo 3, COD4, and Skate. I have GTA 4, Burnout Paradise, and Turok as well, GTA 4 I got bored with the story, the missions were too repetitive. Turok and Burnout on the other hand I have barely done anything with. If someone thinks Turok/Burnout is great, then maybe I'll continue with that. Otherwise does anyone have any recommendations for me? Thanks!
One of the 360's older games in my opinion is still one of its best. That game is Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion. Its an RPG, it is truely open world not some of the "claim to be" but are not really that open RPG's. When i first played Oblivion it sucked me in and i found myself spending a lot of time with it. You can be any character you want to pretty much the amount of character customisation in how you look and what your skills ans specialisations are is incredible. Also since you play from a first person perspective sword fighting, shooting your bow or casting a spell its almost like playing a Medieval FPS at times. Definately worth a look but make sure you buy the "Game of the Year" addition because it comes with a lot of the add ons for Oblivion which can be found on the Marketplace. Another great game is Gears of War but Gears of War 2 is coming out later this year so you would be better off waiting for that.
UT3, Soul Caliber 4 are some good recent games. Oblivion and Fight Night Round 3 are good classics and pretty cheap. Both are very addictive actually. FNR is a great game for boosting gamerscore too lol.
I'll look for that somewhere and give it a shot. would it be mandatory to buy the first gears and play through it before the second? or is it kinda like halo 3 where you can get wrapped into it without playing the first? or do we not know because it isn't out yet lol BTW, thanks to all who have posted!
Storyline, well people may argue there isn't much of one in GoW..you still should be familiar with the characters. Plus, throw down some MP matches so that your familiar with that as well. November release date for 2, so you still have a few months. I believe there is one coming, or already out, it's a GoW1 refresh, basically..they are re-distributing Gears, and I believe at a lower price. Don't quote me though. I'd at least play through gears 1 once before playing 2. As well, UT3 (unreal tourniment), came out in june. It's the game I suggested. It's made by Epic (gears), and I guess is a FPS equivalent. Big guns, big explosions, H-core characters, and aliens Plus the MP kicks ass.
I going to tell you the same thing I told someone else. Wait. -Star Wars: The Force Unleashed -Banjo & Kazooie - Nuts & Bolts (this is going to be fun. I loved these games when I was younger -Tom Clancy's HAWX -GoW2. Duh. It's not mandatory, but they're going to have linked achievements, meaning, you'll be able to play with some content by having gotten several specific achievements on Gears 1. I myself don't have it, so I borrowed it from my cousin, and I play it every once in a while on Online Co-op. There's always people there willing to help. I think they already released this ''refreshed'' one. They're selling it for U$35. A while ago at Target they were giving you Mass Effect if you bought Gears. And only for U$35. 'Twas a good deal, but I ignored it. Shouldn't have.
I'm not sure .. But the story in the first one is short and i didnt really get it but the online play is immense! Or shall i say was ..
i recomend 3 games: Bioshock-a (kinda scary) game where you go about in an underwater city trying to find the owner and kill him and escape. gears of war-best game ever assassins creed-you can do whatever you want. you can ride horses, kill random people, and get chased by gaurds
