    Agree with people about Fallout 3, there was a massive world but i found the whole thing pretty boring...

    Halo 3 only there for multiplayer, campaign was such a letdown.

    1. Fallout 3 Ever since I started having enough money to buy games once I finish my old ones (AKA, not being under 18) I rarely replay them but this was the exception. Must have done it 3 times over before picking up something else. Nothing bored me in this game and went after everything

    2Call of Duty 4 Before I got Xbox Live I thought this was a top 10 game based on single player alone but the online is up there with Swat 4 and Perfect Dark as my favourite multiplayer FPS out there. Flawless.

    3Fifa 09So realistic yet so much fun to play with a great online interface. I was a die hard pro evo fan before I got this, now I could never imagine going back. It's the black woman of football games

    4BioshockOne of the best atmospheres I've encountered in a game with an absolutley phenomenal twist in the middle of the story
    would you kindly
    and you could shoot bees from your hands. What more could you want

    5Gears of WarAlthough I have no real interest in playing it now and had no interest in the sequel this was great for it's time. The absolute ****. Fun weapons and a great co-op campaign but the slow slow slow walking has killed it for me now

    6Shadow Complexvery very simple, very replayable with some genuinely tough fighting bits and head scratching how the **** do I get that moments, my first take on the Metroidvania games was great. Storyline was duff but I doubt I'll ever tire of running up to dudes and pressing B

    7Mass EffectThe best story on the 360 with the interactivity that I like so much and decent combat mechanics was destroyed by that stupid tank car malarky

    8UFC UndisputedA great attempt to bring such a complex sport into one game but the fighting was nearly flawless. Sure the career sucked and there were online niggles but as a long time fan arguably the most satisying moment I've ever had on the xbox was getting knocked down online, getting pounced, waiting for the stamina to go and winning with a triangle choke. Also educated the casual fans to the ground game better than Rogan ever could

    9Earth Defense Force 2017Every level was in essence the same, the graphics were crap and the voice acting was so so bad but the game bottled the essence of fun and there is no way to play this without enjoying it

    10Saints Row 2 i know it's a cliche but while GTA was boring Saints Row 2 was fun. Simple as that. While GTA's standout moments are undoubtably better (like the bank mission) as a whole Saints Row wipes the floor with it

    I have loads of other games, incl GOW2, HALO3, GTA4 etc etc...but...meh..theyre not the greatest of games


  • Registered Users Posts: 749 ✭✭✭Spastafarian


    especially hate the online... and now EVERYTHING has that stupid system where the more you play the better guns and stuff you get. Cheers for that lads, ruin it for everyone who doesn't play online 24/7.
    I like that system, it makes online a bit more interesting and goal orientated.

    I see a lot of Batmans in people's lists, is it really that good? I played the demo and found it a bit boring, what's with the endless conveniently placed gargoyles? Is there even such a thing as an indoor gargoyle? That game just annoyed me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭Sarn


    I only own about 10 games :(

    The problem is I've played Oblivion, The Orange Box, Fallout 3, L4D, Bioshock and COD4 on the PC so that only leaves:

    Mass Effect
    Crackdown
    GTA IV
    Halo 3
    GOW
    Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2

    (Must see about picking up some of the highly rated games)

    I've heard COD4 is incredible. Cant find a copy of Fallout 3. Is Streetfighter worth 60 quid? Tempted to pick up Halo Wars/Red Alert 3
    Do people actually think Crackdown was good?

    Think you can pick that up for 35 or so in shops, and ever cheaper online. Great game.

    I thought it was good but using the standard Xbox controller with it was horrible. The D-Pad is awful for doing the moves leaving you having to use the analogue stick or investing in a decent fighter pad.

    Overall I stopped playing the game because I couldn't compete with the people online who have invested in proper joysticks/pads so I ended up hating it.

    Didnt find this tbh, people are different I suppose but I found it fine. Did alright against the majority of people online. There was one guy as Vega though who just was untouchable (never saw anything like it), but the majority of the times I found it fine.
