About Me

Nick: Slade
Name: L
Age: 23
Location: Wilmington, NC

I'm Slade and I'm an alcoholic....and a gamer.

I first game'd when I had an SNES (also known as the perfect excuse to NOT play baseball).

I soon ended up with a Genesis which became the perfect excuse to PLAY football. (Ok there were a few decent games, like sonic's and phantasy star 4 (those that say 3 is good should totally find a cliff.)

Anyways, as late, I've been a bit of a PC gamer since my studies are in Computer Information Technology. Now I'm trying to get back to my first true love (no that bitch left me for some quaker or something). Console gaming. I got a Wii this past xmas and i'm poised to get an Xbox360 (just in time for the House season premire).

And you end up purchasing an x360. But no, I had to buy an elite x360. 120 gigs of transferable porn at my disposal. I finally decided to play Gears of War (its true gents, a great game) and picked up Madden 08 and Dead Rising. I know alot of a list games are around the corner, (Halo 3, Asssasins Creed, Mass Effect etc). I'm curious, what are some good xbox360 games you guys would recommend to a new x360 owner. Awesome recommendations will reward you a cookie.

Neonie

Bioshock
Bomberman Live
Geometry Warz

Excremento

Viva Pinata, and I like Macaroons kthxbai

Kryptinite

@heretic

are you implying that he can't like bioshock since he plays madden?

comradetrotskii

I don't see anybody mentioning Dead Rising.

Also go for Two Worlds over Oblivion, its like the same game but 10X better in every way!

vexed alex

What's wrong with the new Madden? It's been getting good reviews.

Have you played it? No. OK then. Thank you. Fail? Yes. Fail.

Slade

lol
sorry, i didn't mention bioshock caused I got it on the PC.

I'll definitely check out crackdown and oblivion. Thansk for the suggestions.

KevlarGibs

Earth Defense Force. Was a great investment when it was $40, and now you can get it for $25 new. plus I can hope that if people keep buying it they will bring Oneechanbara over here too. If you don't have lots of free time, avoid it though, that game got 70+ hours out of me, which is a lot for a non RPG singleplayer game.

other games to avoid if you don't have free time:
Rumble roses and DOAX2
Rumble roses isn't quite as bad for unlocking/achieving things, but it annoys me that the game only cost me $10, but there is over $100 of DLC for the game. and DOAX2 will take hundreds, if not thousands of hours to unlock everything... it's torture for completists.

FrozenSpaceMonkey

Burnout Revenge looks fun too...I loved the earlier games in the series

KevlarGibs

yeah, but burnout paradise is right around the corner... I'd wait for that, unless you see revenge really cheap.

FrozenSpaceMonkey

oh, and btw, if you're gonna get oblivion, get it on the PC if you can run Bioshock...the leveled quest rewards items mod + many, many, many other mods make the PC version FAR superior to the 360 version IMHO...

Steel Squirrel

Rainbow Six Vegas is good one.
Call of Duty 2.
Dead or Alive 4.
Saint's Row.
Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 1&2.

Man, we need some new styles of gamin' for the 360 soon.
Skate and Mass Effect should take care of that though.

Aaron Mxy Yost

Whenever I get my hands on a 360, I go straight for Geometry Wars. I can't get enough of that game.

Carbot

COD4 Modern Warfare! It's not out yet but when it hits the public it shall be fucking awesome. It will be a must have(on my list.) The multiplayer preview gives you a hit of how many hours you will be glued to your tv. :)

Space Giraffe and Lumines Live, if you're one of the cool kids.
