What 360 game do I buy next?

[SLCentral]

I've got GRAW, COD2, and Perfect Dark Zero. Rented Oblivion, and it wasn't really my thing (but I do love RPGs like FF). Also played through Condemned, which was fun. I'm leaning toward Madden or NCAA '07, but I'm not sure. Any ideas?

I've heard Madden looks great and plays well.

 

[Reckoner]

Prey's coming out next month. Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth is on Tuesday, and Madden 07 is in August. Other than that, not much on the slate for new releases this summer.

I've really enjoyed Fifa World Cup 2006 (not to be confused with Fifa 2006: Road to the World Cup...which sucked in comparison).

My fiance got me Tomb Raider Legend for my birthday and we have had fun playing through it. I'd probably recommend it as a rental though as replayability will not be there once you finish the game.

Table Tennis is much better than I expected. I would also trade in PDZ cause it is a piece of crap

Also, Top SPin 2 is a lot of fun. Both those games are $40 new, and can find em used for probably cheaper.

Table Tennis! Seriously, it's a great online game.

I got PDZ for the Co-Op, which has proved to be a lot of fun. I'm not quite done with it though, but I know I'll sell it as soon as I am, cause Online sucks.

I was thinking about Prey, but the demo wasn't really something I liked, so I'd pass on that. LOTR seems cool, but I'm skeptical about the controls. I don't want to wait till August for Madden, but I don't want to buy a game that'll be obsolete in a month. Table Tennis looks sweet, but I'm thinking I'll get bored.

Goddamnit, why can't there be better 360 games out?

burnout is super fun to play.

 

[LanceM]

FNR3?

 

[UpgradeFailure]

I realllllly need a new game too. I am trying my best to hold off 'til the 11th for Prey, but damn I need a game for the holiday weekend

I played Hitman for a while (friends copy). It was better than I expected.

Oh yeah...I forgot all about that game...definitely fun...just haven't played it in a while as Fifa, GRAW, and Tomb Raider have been taking up what little gaming time I have.

agreed. i don't know how i didn't mention that. Burnout is probably my most played xbox360 game since launch. it just does not get boring online ever. I bought burnout and GRAW the same day when they launched, and I was hesitant to get burnout because I had played part 3 on xbox and just didnt know how much more fun this one would be.

and man am I glad I got it. i played burnout a lot more than graw. it's just mindless arcade racing. and NOTHING is more fun than playing road rage online.

I'm going to sit tight until Chromehounds comes out in 2 weeks.

i heard it blows. the demo is up on the euro marketplace. you can get it by creating a silver live account in the european region on your 360.

 

[Cattlegod]

Burnout is sweet. also, if arcade racing isn't your thing, get PGR3, also a great game.

 

[Smartazz]

I got Burnout Revenge recently for it, sweet game, but I could have saved $20 by getting it for ps2 instead and the graphics aren't that much diffrent, I just wanted another xbox360 game.

Just a few quick questions:

When is the racing wheel supposed to be out?

Will it have a clutch pedal and stick shift? And if not, has there ever been a game and a racing wheel that supports a clutch and a stick shift?

 

[SLCentral]

Not too sure I want Burnout cause I'm not a big fan of racing games :\. I wish the 360 had a killer RPG on it like Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts.

 

[bluewall21]

Another vote for Burnout from me. That game is quite fun.

Doesn't it already have a Final Fantasy?

I heard it will be out later this year, by the end of 2006.
I don't know if it will have a clutch pedal. The only game I've ever seen with a clutch pedal was sanfransico rush in the arcades.

Yeah, FFXI, an online MMORPG. I'm not paying $15 for a game per month.

The Microsoft Racing Wheel will be coming out late 2006, probably when Forza 2 comes out. I'm not sure if there is going to be a clutch stick, but I think that it will come with sports shift. This wheel will be sick, even though its battery operated, if you plug it into your 360, your wheel will lock up if you turn too hard. Like really lock up. I can't wait for the wheel and Forza 2 to come out. It will own all racing games, maybe even GT4.
