I'm a huge hypocrite. [bought Xbox]

[portnoyd]

Well, I did it. It was just a great deal! $144.99.... with 30%, was $108 with the tax.... and Steel Battalion. Oh, sexy Steel Battalion.

I figure I'll try and get Splinter Cell today... might as well milk the discount weekend to its max (not like I did that already).

Yes. I got an XBox. Any other games I should consider getting?

[Neo-Jorge]

You need the HALO..... Shenmue 2, House of the dead 3, Splinter Cell.




thanks

[Kid Ice]

You got Xbox AND Steel Battalion for 108.99? That's an incredible price even for just the Box!

I would reccomend Gunvalkyrie. It's a tough game to learn, but fun to play. If you do get it, I highly reccommend just watching the demo play to see how a real game should work.

Project Gotham is still good after a year.

[congobongo]

if you want a more laid-back mech game, I highly recommend MechAssault. Not sure how good the single player is but the multiplayer is great. Oddworld Munch's Oddysee is great too.

[BHvrd]

At the moment my favorite game is Timesplitters 2, the multiplayer is just fantastic on the Xbox, i've played it on Gamecube, and DAMN the framerate sucks on multiplayer on the Cube! I haven't tried it on PS2 so I can't comment on that one, but Timesplitters 2 is a helluva game on Xbox.

The other games I would HIGHLY reccomend:

[begin list]

Halo

Project Gotham Racing

Splinter Cell "as you said"

Dead or Alive 3

Shenmue 2

Blinx: The Time Sweeper

Enclave

Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee

Fuzion Frenzy "ok, this is more of a personal favorite, but it's a great party game!"

BMX XXX

MotoGP

Rallisport Challenge

Toejam and Earl 3

Mechassault

Ghost Recon

Unreal Championship

World Series Baseball

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Jet Set Radio Future

Sega GT 2002 "if you like more simulation like driving games, personally I like Project Gotham Racing more, it's more arcadey, but with alot of gameplay."

[end list]


You got a very powerful system there, enjoy! :)

[Six Switch]

Here are my fav games for it:

Halo
MechAssault
Unreal
Shenmue II
Morrowind
Jet Set Radio Future

Those are my favs,and I am planing on getting Toejam and Splinter Cell soon! :D ;) :grin:

[portnoyd]

Clarfication: I got the XBox for $108, and Steel Battalion for $140. Still a nice deal.

I think I'm going to go with MechAssault as my next choice (muuuuch later BTW), and Abe's Odysessy, bc it's probably cheaper now and liked the first Oddworlds.

Thanks again!

[strongmanx]

Before you go plunking down money for games, check out this site:

http://www.microsoft.com/retail/xbox/

Anyone who does not work in a game shop/in videogame dept. of their stores need not apply. If they find out you DON'T work for companies that sell games, they will charge the full amount your credit card.

Get free games by cheating, er, taking their quizzes. I mean, how hard are these quizzes? Leave the info window open and have a second window open with the quizes.

[portnoyd]

Achika, you'll have to excuse me.

/me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika. /me hump Achika.

Sorry, but you rule. Halo, Quantum Redshift, and Oddworld for $18?! SOLD!

I have a feeling she's gonna be swinging on you with that steel battalion controller...

[Achika]

I have a feeling she's gonna be swinging on you with that steel battalion controller...

Pah! No, I'll use the now paltry playstation twin sticks with only 10 buttons. :D

I love passing on that link! I'd get Halo with my available points, but I'm waiting to see if they decide to put Blinx up, since they just slashed a bunch of the old games point values.

[portnoyd]

I decided to just go balls out and spend everything I had at once. Like I said, I wanted Oddworld, and you never know when you might need Halo... I'll just wait til the quizzes add up again to get more games :D

Thanks again and sorry for the excessive humping. :D :D :D :D
