Ok i decided to stop being such a PS2, and PC fan, and go buy a Xbox, but any ideas in wich game to get? I'm gonna buy a used xbox at EB if they have them. But i don't know what games to get. But don't say Halo 2, casue i can play that game for 3 days straight and still hate, and wich i couldn't stand 3 days of a game thats boring to me.
 
i say get a whole of real old (02-03) xbox games. alot of cheap fun. i still wish i hadnt sold wreckless, or test drive, or MC2. just not popular on XBL thats the only problem to me
 
No Halo games? Tsk.

1. Ninja Gaiden
2. Rallisport Challenge 2
3. Jade Empire
4. Burnout Revenge
5. Far Cry Instincts
6. Forza
7. Project Gotham Racing 2
8. Panzer Dragoon Orta
9. Soul Cal 2/ Dead or Alive 3
10. Fight Night Round 2
11. Any of the prince of persias
12. Half Life 2
13. The Chronicles of Riddick
14. Star Wars KOTOR 1 and 2
15. Crimson Skys
16. Top Spin
17. Doom 3

Above all, get Rallisport Challenge 2, best rally game ever made.

Also get it chipped, it makes a kick arse media center, among other things.

An idea, i wouldn't buy MC2 cause i doesn't apeal to me since i have a friend who has it for xbox, and i have MC3 for PS2. But tes drive sounds like fun, i rememebr i used to play the real old ones on PC like 9 years ago.

No Halo games basically cause i have the original for PC and custam edition. and i have a friend that has Halo 2. Not HL2 cause i have it for PC and i beat a billion times. Doom3 nah cause i'm kinda tiard of FPS games after i bought FEAR. Crimson Skys is a fun game, i would buy that, i remember playing that on PC well the original one. Burnout Revenge i already have for PS2 so thats a no. I'll look at Rallisport, but all the other games don't apeal to me.
The games that i know i'm gonna buy with it are Forza and PGR2. I'll look at all the games that you guys sugested though.
 
Yep, code_kev pretty much recommends everything that I would (that that I can remember).
 
I would have to agree with Rallysport Challenge 2, its no sim, but it is a damn fine game. Easily the best of the rally games, far better than the psudo-sims such as WRC or Colin McRae.

It looks great, plays great and is just the job for 'after the pub' challenges.

To me its a kind of PGR2 for the mud and snow (I think anyone who has played both will know what I mean).

1. Forza is a must if your into car games at all. ---you said your already going to get it
2. Rallisport Challenge 2
3. Half Life 2--oops you already have that for PC
4. Battlefield 2: Modern Combat (better online than Socom 3 or Halo 2. You get to drive tanks, fly helicopters, snipe, rocket launchers, set land mines, use C4 and soo much more....)
5. Doom 3 (one of the best scary games ever made and they did a wonderful job on the xbox version
6. Midnight CLub 3
Those are my top 6 suggestions for you. Hopefully you get xbox live otherwise you will be missing out.

Like i said, i already have MC3 for PS2, BF2 MC. i really don't know cause i have the intire BF series on PC and i prefer PC shooter over console shooters. But i could consider it.
EDIT: I think FEAR is scarer then DOOM3 but we have all of our own opinions.
 
OK guys, i counter all my monet up, i have $390, i'm either gonna order the games to night on the compyter or i'ma ride my bike 10 miles to EB and bring my Backpack. I will Edit this post and tell you what i'ma get.

EDIT: Well here is what i got, and i got alot more then i expected. I just saw things i first saw, and this is what i'ma order.
FarCry:Instincts
L.A. Rush
Forza Morter Sport
Project Gothem Racing 2
Halo 2
Refurbished Xbox w/ Sega GT and JSRF
Need for Speed:Most Wanted
2 Xbox S Controllers.
 
You missed one of the most important games that we all suggested to you. The other games should keep you busy for a while. Also do you have xboxlive??
Rallisport Challenge 2

Yeah i know, but Rallisport isn't really my type of raceing, i'm not all that into raceing, but i definatly, order Rallisport and Ninja Garden later on. And i didn't get Xbox live, cause i heard about hooking your Xbox up to your com and playing it there, online for free.
 
Let us know how you like the games, Far Cry was probably one of my favorite fps games on Xbox. I just played the ps2 demo for Black which should be coming out soon, I would have to say Im really excited for that one to be released (its for PS2 and Xbox).

Well it's saposed to come today, cause i clicked 2 days shipping, but so far hasnt come yet.
I already know i'm gonna love Far Cry cause i got the first one for PC a few years ago, and loved it the whole way.
 
OK guys it finally came today, and i just finished my first race in Forza (on my 2nd try) in my Nissan Silvia, this game is alot of fun so far, and the feel of driving is much more detailed then GT4. This game is alot of fun!!!
 
But the Xbox will have no more games made in 2 years I reckon.
