Great thread..
I'm so curious as to what's actually still played online via Xbox live..
Is there a list somewhere of what 360(and Xbox) games that are still being played online?
I'm fairly new to Xbox live..9 months or so now..So please bear with me as my post might have more questions then anything.
I'd love to experience all I can with Live as I feel I've missed a lot.
All my 360 games I bought to play Offline...Now a lot of them have new life,to play them online...
If a game is good to play online I buy two copies..One for my Sons 360 who I have a separate live account.(I hate split screen)
I mainly play Call Of Duty 3(I LOVE THIS GAME)..I'm really good at it always finishing on the top of the list in score.
My Son is great at it too..
The perfect night for us is for both of us to get into the same game,usually capture the flag or war via the two 360s
Unfortunately this doesn't happen much..We both find that the connection quality in the games to join is one star and neither of us can get into a game or at least together.
Or even when I see all stars it says that I cannot connect to all players..
The coolest thing about playing COD3 online with my Son via two 360s..Is that we can team up and with the two TVs next to each other I can see where enemies are at if we split up,..without having to rely on people talking through the mic as I've found that people still don't own headset-mics.
If my Son plays on the Enemy side I can see through his TV where the enemy is...located..
So it's usually me giving direction as to where the enemy is coming from..This might be an advantage but it doesn't really even give my side a win.
My Son kicks my butt in this game anyway when he goes on the enemy side.
COD2...This game I used to be able to get into but lately after a few minutes in I get a message "internet Interruption" then I get kicked out..
It's not just me because I can see the other players stuck or bumping into stuff too,
I have two copies of it but I still haven't tried to play it with my Son online due to the above.
Call Of Duty 4...This game work FLAWLESSLY for me online...Though I do hear people saying over the headset that there is Lag going on..
So if this game works Great for me online and COD3/COD2 doesn't..is it the games,the servers..
I could have problems getting online with COD3/COD2/Lag in Team Fortress ..Pop in COD4 right after and Have No problems..
My Son has a copy of COD4 coming to him on Christmas I hope that we can both play this online together.
Halo 3...(I'm so lost with this game online,We've finished the game co-op. via two 360s in the normal setting...My son gets into online,Slayer ..but that's all I find..
How do I get into capture the flag or other type online games.
I'd be deep into this with My Son if we could find say a vehicle,capture the flag map and be able to get into the same game via two 360s
Forza 2(but I don't have any cars to race online-I take it I have to win some offline races to get cars to play online.)
Halo 2,..when I first got my 360 I was able to get into an online game..now it keeps telling me that I'm missing maps..I downloaded everything that I can find available in the marketplace but I still can't get into any online games.
Right now it's
Team Fortress 2..I like this game,but I get frustrated with the lag...Once too many people get into the game it just starts to drag/lag..again,..I like it and I just keep trying.
Ghost Recon 2(I'm ok at it....I just haven't given it much time online.
Gears of War (I only find one game to join and I got my head handed to me..with a max of two three people..it's seems I'm playing pros)
Rainbow Six Vegas.(I do find games online but I don't last long..Sometimes I do sometime I don't) I haven't had the time to play the offline game and would like to do that first.
FEAR..I find no online games to play...Though I've finished the game offline.
Crackdown(maybe I should buy a second copy and play the online Co-op with my Son)
Lost Planet(I can't tell who the enemy is..
Command & Conquer?..(I'd like to try this game online if ?
Chromehounds(I'm seriously lost,how do I play online)
Over G Fighters..I found one player online,who was just fooling around,,I kept flying until I just nose dived into the ocean)
