Okay, I'll set the scene...
Finished my last uni exam on Tuesday, and had the rest of this week, and next week of holidays, before I have to go back to uni for a two week 'holiday' unit. And due to losing my job earlier in the month, I don't have to worry about working either.
Finally got to level 65 in Call of Duty: World at War, and just got the new map pack priming myself for some nazi zombie killing.
New Fallout 3 DLC is ready to be downloaded after thoroughly enjoying the first three.
Belatedly getting into Oblivion, and about halfway through the last Thieves Guild mission.
Cue...
Yep, got the beloved ring of fire synonymous with our favourite Microsoft console. This, in fact, is my second red ring of death for my 360 in the two years I've had it. I really should have known this was going to happen considering the circumstances. It started freezing during Oblivion, then it would freeze during the boot-up sequence, then it just laid down and gave me the red lights.
Today I've being pretty lost. Despite owning all consoles and handhelds I've generally only played the 360. The others have become neglected. Anyway, since I can't play the 360 looks like the PS3 and Wii will be getting some playtime. Might finish Uncharted and Resistance, as well as Prime 3 and Galaxy.
So Destructoid, what are some older, and therefore cheaper games that I've probably missed on the other two consoles that've being released over the last year? I need my fix. :P
Try, Final Fantasy Tactics A2. That's what I'm playing right now. Well on the DS anyway. & since I don't have a PS3, I guess try De Blob, Madworld or No More Heroes on Wii. Some of those good Wii games that need some more lovin'.
The original Resistance game was awesome... both offline and online and the newer Resistance 2 game is also very solid. For online play they have a really fun co-op mode that is an absolute blast and very addicting!
Eh... so many good games to play...
It's very much a team based game and the people that play are pretty laid back. It has weapons pick ups, so rank really means nothing and there are "junior" servers for those that are just starting with the game so that they can learn the maps, etc. It has planes and air battle(which are incredibly easy to fly, but hard to get really good at), but it also has ground battle with guns, jeeps, tanks and stationary turrets.
The online community for this game is still VERY active and you will always be able to find a game... it might be worth considering if you're looking for an older, cheaper game that has tons of gaming time.
Oh wait ... Buy Ninja Gaiden Sigma and Burnout Paradise , both are Greatest Hits ,and the games Elza talked about are good too !
Check the store there's PLENTY :)
Oh also Pixeljunk: Monsters, Racers and Eden. Rag Doll Kung Fu and Pain.
