This is probably going to be the best game of the year. Its been deemed the Halo Killer. Halo still rules though Let me know how it goes if you get to play early.

Splinter Cell: DA is KILLER! I love it.

F.E.A.R. is just sick, scary at points, and lots of action. Its a must buy if you are a gamer!

I would but these games RAPE the wallet. I'll probably get it when I trade in splinter cell, after I beat it of course.

Haha exactly. Who needs PS3 when you got graphics like these.

PS3 is overpriced as it is and they're selling them on ebay for $1500 a pop. Cant say I blame em though, samething happened when 360 came out. However 360's was priced someway decent. Thank goodness I had it hold though. I could actually wait a while for PS3, but I definately want to get Wii. My roomate's said he's going to get Ps3, which means no money out my pocket

Got mine at game crazy today, this game is unbelievable! Graphics, soundtrack, and I love the shit talking the characters do...

Posted by CLEEN 50 (Member # 5867) on :
 
Now this game is INTENSE! . THE BEST GAME OUT PERIOD! The story line is off the chain Graphics are the best I've ever seen in my entire life. The guns are ......


Seriously this soundtrack is the best I've ever heard. It makes you feel like you are in some sort of crazy ass in-the-future-war movie . The shit talking makes it so life like. This is game is so great. 10 out of 10

There is no Halo for 360 not till next year anyways. Halo for normal xbox sucks balls compared to G.O.W. for 360, no comparison. G.O.W. rules all.

this is coming from a hardcore halo fan

i am an online warrior and the game types and fluid movement of halo 2 online makes it THE BEST game for xbox hands down. dont get me wrong i think that G.O.W is a blast to play. but halo 2 still kicks ass. i pre-ordered halo 3 alrady too

guys, im not impressed by GOW. I guess Im not really a third person shooter guy. The real sleeper game that came out the same day as GOW is Call Of Duty 3. I can't get enough of this game.

Posted by EASTBAY5_0 (Member # 3292) on :
 
GOW seems to be the it game right now... but im waiting for Halo 3 to drop next year.

Posted by CLEEN 50 (Member # 5867) on :
 
3rd person shooter are the best! Why wouldn't you want to see the guy your playng with?
 

---

Posted by RiddlerGT (Member # 113) on :
 
well i picked up GOW today and while its a great game, i have to agree that im not a fan of third person shooters. I hate trying to run and then it automatically try to hide you as you run past a wall.

Im kinda wishing I Call of duty 3 =( just for the multiplayer aspect, not a fan of the game itself.

I got COD3 and Gears of War at the same time. I played COD3 for about 10 minutes and while it is a really good game Gears is just much better. I played Gears for 6 hours straight at one point....just awesome!..

OK ok, now I'm at a point I can't pass. I'm on the train level, act 5, trying to beat the boss, RAAM, and I keep getting killed. How do you take this bastard out?

I didn't want to start a whole new thread on a car site about my controller question. So I will ask here. I just opened my wireless controller for the first time since I bought it LAUNCH day (don't ask). Anyhow, obviously it isn't charged. I also have the play and charge kit. So yesterday I put the pack in (not the one with batteries). Plugged my play and charge kit and started to play. Will my vibration wasn't working. I assumed because my batttery was low. Anyhow, I turned my Xbox on today while I was gone (more than 6 hours) thinking it would have fully charged it. I checked the dashboard and my controller is still LOW. What the hell am I doing wrong? Right now, my green light on the play and charge kit is green. and the RING on the controller is going in circles (in green). At times it stops though. How do I read this damn controller? Thanks for the help. I tried looking on XBOX360 site and didnt really find anything to helpful.

Sounds like a faulty charging pack. Doesn't happen often, but it happens. See if you can return it.

I think I am about half way through it. Took me a bit to figure out how to beat the first berzerker. I wouldnt call this game a halo killer but it is tight. Getting COD3 today.
