Just got an xbox 360: Game suggestions :)

[DaRealSpoon]

So I've decided to treat myself and get an xbox 360 for my impending birthing anniversary and for the fact that I am starting to hibernate for the winter

I'm well excited

Was wondering if folks would offer some game suggestions or general 360 advice and whatnot.

Heres what Iv got so far:

Fable II (loved the first one on the old xbox)
Red Dead Redemption
Assasins Creed 1

I'm not too bothered about having the absolute latest games, the way I see it there is loads of games I've missed out on in only just buying one of these consoles that I may aswell play catch up (plus old games are much cheaper).. And I'd rather play through stuff like AC from the first title etc.

Any other must have games, I'd quite like a COD/battlefield style game... Dunno which is best, was thinking maybe MW 2??

Oblivion is a good fable-style game.

Forza 3 for racing.

 

[Chester Copperpot]

MW is better than MW2 imo, but I'f get both if you can.
Left4dead 2
Fallout 3
Fallout new vagas

ETA: Bioshock 1, Resident evil 5 & Batman AA

The Orange Box

Just to check, have I done alright on this deal. From the looking around I've done it seems good:

xbox 360 pro (120gb)
2x wireless controllers
copy of tombraider underworld
all leads etc.

Its an undamaged customer return, boxed as new with 6 month warranty

£120

Good?

Good...

Most of the games I've mentioned above you'll get for £15 or less pre owned. I got left4dead 2 for £10.50 off ebay.

Sweet, looked like a good deal and from a proper retailer so I'm quite happy... Should be here thursday, Woop WOop!!

Yeh, the ones I mentioned I cost me around £35 quid for all three. RDR being the most expensive.

Think it might be a few months before I get an xbox live account so I was thinking of MW2 as it has 2 player co-op mode, dont think MW1 has this does it?

 

[Chester Copperpot]

I think so. I only got on line last week myself though so I've not tried it.

orange box, fallout 3, street fighter 4

Halo Reach

The Darkness is an old title that you should be able to pick up dirt-cheap. Great FPS, where you also have evil powers.

Impaling someone on your spiky tail is hard to beat

Nope. And the 2 player co-op can only be played split screen if you are not on xbox live. Great if you have a huge telly, not so great if you have a small one

FIFA 11

I've happily played it on a 24" widescreen, but any less would be a struggle.

MW2
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
Left4Dead 2
Fifa 11
Halo Reach
The Orange Box deserves an honourable mention as it's such a great deal with a lot of content.
