Forums - Gaming - I was just at the game store trying out the 360...

BK3 will be amazing. It is being made by the original Banjo team.

 That's a pretty bold statement since we know next to nothing about BK3 yet.. and i'm saying that as a person who currently (and probably for the remainder of the gen) regard galaxy as my favourite game this gen

OT: The three games i'd want a 360 for are BK3, Fable 2 and GTA IV, when all 3 of them come out (with no sign of PC release) i'll most likely make my purchase.. extra mention goes out to Mass Effect which is left out due to the fact that i'll be grabbing it on PC


i stand by my statement.

NJ5 I would say the PS3 is a better deal than the XBox 360 with GT 5 Prologue just being released. Both GTA IV and MGS 4 (Game of the year) will be out within a month or two. Also PS3 has a lot more better games than the XBox 360. The XBox 360 is sort of like the N64 of the current generation.

If the Wii is the PS1 of the generation, and the Xbox 360 is the N64, is the PS3 the 3DO?

@DOATS1: Thanks, I'll be keeping an eye on the wireless receiver!

@everyone: Thanks for the great advice.

@Rock_on_2008: Sorry, but I don't want to support the rootkit company. In any case, GT5 and MGS4 are not a big attraction for me, even though I'd probably buy MGS4 if it was on a platform I already had.

The games for 360 that are worth trying out I would say would be Dead Rising, Gears of War, Fable 2, Too Human and Forza 2.

@ NJ5

Kameo (pretty and cute, great gameplay), DOA4 (very fun fighter IMO) and BioShock (haven't played it enough, but parts of the game look great). FPS: Maybe Halo 3, didn't excite me but most people seem to dig this game, I liked the Rainbow Six: Vegas and Dead Rising demos.

A friend loves Top Spin 2.

IMO avoid Condemned, the sequel seems much better though. I didn't like the PGR series at all, had some fun with Tomb Raider but probably looks a bit dated by now, if you dig this sort of game a follow up looks set to push next gen systems much harder.



Naughty Dog: "At Naughty Dog, we're pretty sure we should be able to see leaps between games on the PS3 that are even bigger than they were on the PS2."

PS3 vs 360 sales

Update: I just ordered the following, and got a big discount due to several Amazon UK promotions added together:

- Xbox Premium
- Halo 3 (10 £, if I don't like it I'll sell it later)
- GTA IV (20 £ with promotional code XBOXGTA4)
- Wireless adapter for PC (for the controller)

All of this together was 265 £... Great deal IMO.

for the price of the big SD, u should just get the pro



the premium version is the same as the pro version




The 360 has so many good games you would go broke pretty soon :)

Definitely get these exclusive titles i.e. Gears of War, BioShock, Mass Effect, Lost Odyssey, Halo3. (theres lots more this year as well). I recommend you go to the Vgchartz game database and sort by 360 sales, there are over 30+ 1 million sellers.

I definitely recommend at least a Premium with the HDMI port, you get full 1080p. Also, subscribe to Live, as you can play RSV2, COD4, Halo 3 and Gears till you fingers go blue.

And I havent even got started on multi-platform titles, XBLA Arcade hits, Marketplace movies.

Congrats on getting an Xbox 360, sorry for your social life though. :)
