    Hey there. i`m recently new to x box live. Just looking for recomendations on a game to buy that can get wear out of playing online. I have UFC09 but im a bot disapointed with the online play to be honest. Don`t want any soccer games

    Call of Duty 4 and/or Call of Duty 5 World at War are probably the best online games of all time.

    1. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
    2. Call of Duty 5: World at War
    3. Left 4 Dead
    4. Halo 3

    In that order

    I'd agree with the Call of Duty games and Left 4 Dead. All 3 are epic online. Loving Fight Night online at the moment myself as well so will have to recommend that. Perhaps not as much life in it as the others mentioned though,

    Call of Duty and Left 4 Dead are brilliant but also Gears of War 2 is pretty good.

    Once again, recommendations for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Left 4 Dead. if youre into a particular sport, most games have good online play such as FIFA, Madden etc. Avoid Pro Evo though. I love the game (prefer it to FIFA) but they have yet to produce a proper online system that doesnt lag.

    Cod 4 is class, world at war is a terrible, terrible game i wouldnt recommend it to anyone, another good online game would be gears 2 but youll need a gud internet connection for it as lag is a serious problem in it ..

    1. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
    2. Halo 3
    3. Street Fighter 4
    4. Call of Juarez Bound in Blood
    5. Mortal Kombat vs DC

    Far Cry 2 has a decent multiplayer, but the single player is awful.

    go to matchmaking on the menu screen, select xbox live. Only certain types of games though are available unless you download all the downloadable content (i.e. the maps)
