I only have Halo2 and the two shitty games that came with my system, can you guys make some reccomendations for good games (mostly the "only on xbox" ones cause I have every other system already). I was thinking Ninja Gaiden and Fable... thanks  |

Buy Ninja Gaiden, Rent Fable (very good, but short)
Buy SW: KOTOR (Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic), its a really good rpg.
Any other questions? =)

I second temp's recommendation of renting Fable(and buying Ninja Gaiden for that matter  ). The game is fun(while it lasted) and looked cool, but was obscenely short(17 hrs to beat w/ a lot of 'goofing around' time). If you like racing games, Burnout 3, and Need for Speed Underground are fun(haven't played #2 yet). And of course both Splinter Cell titles are awesome. If you plan on playing with friends Xmen legends(co-op) and Crimson Skies(standard FPS-type multiplayer fare) both work great for groups. Hope this helps^^ |

Hope this helps^^ The ones you mentioned are all multi-platform except for Crimson Skies, which is why I didnt bring them up. =) However, I would agree with them as recomendations if you havent played them yet, with 2 qualifications. First, play Need for Speed (any in the series) on PS2, not Xbox. The graphics may look a tad better on the Xbox, but the controls (imo) are better on PS2, that being the 'base' system the game is developed for. Secondly, Crimson Skies is not a FPS, its a flight sim, though not a realistic one. Quite fun though, and definitely a good choice if you want a flying game. Oh btw, I answer PS2, GameCube, GBA, and DS questions also. ;-) A good website to get a general idea of any game is www.gamerankings.com They compile the scores from all the other sites and magazines. Or you can always ask me, and Ill tell you what my customers like. -t #nosmileys |

Btw, buy Chronicles of Riddick (the xbox game) if you liked the movie, you will most likely love the game. And the fact that its one of the best looking xbox games out there, up with ninja gaiden for the 'pretty' factor.
What type (genre) of game are you looking for mirowr? I can recomend dozens of good games I hope you realize, just didnt think youd want a huge list ;-)

I'm mostly an RPG gamer & Action/Adventure RPG (like Kingdom Hearts I guess) but I do fighting games too only if they're REALLY GOOD. I'm not into racing much ;/ it's really early.. I'll think about it and let you know |

Sudeki is an odd action/rpg I found it to take more of my time up than fable did. Fighting games go for Snk vs. Capcom I liked this one alot, but then I'm a big fan of the Vs. series all together. DoA is a nice one not sure if that is still a X-box only one but good fighting in it. Mechassault was damn good I've only played that online though. ....... Liesure suit larry.... I find this game addicting with all the little mini games in it, and never hurts to get your char laid, don't remember if this is X-box exclusive either though. Anyway good gamming.

Sudeki is a poor cross between gauntlet and baldurs gate: dark alliance. =P

Your missing one the FPS part too. I said it was odd. Another one is Otogi, it's not Ninja Giaden but it's decent. If Jade Empire ever comes out that will be a good one too.
