Ok, I live in bolivia, so money is sort of an issue here, but, i just finished a project and should be touching a bonus. Last time I did I bought a 37 inch HD TV and I want something to show off my screen ever since

With the money I'll be getting I should have enough to buy an Xbox 360 and about 5 games (no PS3 boys, it costs 600$ here!! nothing against it though)

So... any games I MUST buy, I never liked Halo (played the first one), besides internet in Bolivia is just to crappy to play online.. should I give Halo 3 another chance? I must admit, I'm looking forward to something that will look good on my screen, because upscaled DVDs are nice, but i feel like I'm missing out!

I was definitely thinking about GeOW and GeOW2... now please some advice!!

Oh, and finally, I'm a little affraid of RROD, since there's no warranty over here, anything I should/shouldn't do?

la campaña single player del halo 3 es bastante mediocre.no tiene sentido que te lo compres si no vas a poder jugar online. el geow 1 y2 si te los recomiendo, a mi no me parecen la gran cosa pero al 99% de la getne le gustan. otro juugo bueno es el resident evil 5 sobre todo si tenes algun amigo para poder jugar pantalla partida. otro seria el cod 4 recontra juegazo. los jeugos de futbol (fifa, y pes) son malisimos en mi opinion. habra que esperar a la proximo generacion porque para mi esta esta perdida. con decirte que me baje el demo del fifa e ibraimovich, messi y xavi tienen todos la misma altura 1,95 metros aproximadamente,un chiste. el pes tambien es bastante malo mejora graficamente con respecto al 2009 pero sigue teniendo los mismos problemas:malas animaciones, mala ia, el arquero es un salame que esta clavado en la linea del arco y no sale ni a tomar sol, etc. si te gustan los rpgs te podes comprar el lost odyssey que es un juegazo y es el unico rpg bueno exclusivo que tiene la 360. si no contamos el polemico fable 2 que a la mayoria parece gustarle por alguno razon.tambien tepodes comprar el left 4 dead que es ideal para poder jugar coop con un maigo a pantalla partida y ahora en noviembre sale el 2. y para terminar con respecto al rrod te conviene rezar, comprarte un estabilizador por las dudas, y poner la maquina en una abitacion muy ventilada y lejos de estufas, hornos, etc. igual si te compras una de las ultimas versiones la "calentona del tio bill" no creo que tengas tantos problemas de hardware.

Por cierto, los de futbol, se los puede jugar entre mas de 4 jugadores? necesito algo para reemplazar PES en la PS2

enla demo del fifa me aparecia como para poner 5 jugadores. asique casi seguro que si. igual pregunta por las dudas cuando lo compres. igual no creo que hallan sacado esa funcion en ninguno de los dos jeugos(fifa y pes) porque es una de las mas populares.



Around the Network

Halo 3 ODST - It's not exactly Halo 3. It's more like a detective game in the Halo Universe. Music and atmosphere is awesome. I actually like it alot and I'm not much of a Halo fan.

Call of Duty 4 - awesome game

Tales of Vesperia - best RPG on the 360

Cool thanks for the advice guys, keep em comming if you think of anything



Listen to the voice of reason, then do as I say.

Great! Congratz, very nice gaming console you got.

My tip:

PES 10 (or 2009)
Gears 1 and 2
Halo 3 & GTA IV
Ninja Gaiden
Lost Odyssey
Mass Effect
Tales of Vesperia
Bioshock
Crackdown
HAlo 3 : ODST (Maybe wait for a price drop if you cant play online)
Fight NIght Round 4
Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare

And ofc Episodes from Libery City coming soon.



I really enjoyed Lost Odyssey and you should be able to pick it up really cheap.

Also, I'd be pretty careful buying a 360 w/o a warranty.  Nothing against it, I have one and really enjoy it, but that is risky.

save longer and get a ps3, nothing against 360 but they so fail alot and you personal wont be able to replace it, plus u wont even be playing online so PS3 is really the way for you! plus if you really want to show off your TV then Blu-ray is amazing!

try ebay for a phat PS3 maybe?

anyway if you get a PS3 or 360 its all about having fun mate

Don't buy one.



Keep this in mind when reading what I type...

I've been gaming longer than many of you have been alive.

Oh, man, yeah, i'll get RE5 for sure
I meant what should or shouldn't do not to get RROD like, dont play it sideways, or play it sideways, try to let it rest every other hour, i don't know, never had to worry about that before so i'm not very informed

Should keep it horizontal. Also try to keep in enough open space so that it doesn't heat up too much. Like maybe you should keep it a little away from the wall and not too close to other electronic devices.

Also give a break after continuous plays of about 1/2 hours.

Get Mass Effect, Gears of War, Batman Arkham Asylum.



 

It is better to die on one's feet

then live on one's knees

Don't listen to the haters. I own everything, and if somehow, I lost all of my consoles in a fire, the 360 would be the first one I replaced! It's a great system.......the PS3 does show internet porn, though.
