Favorite Xbox 360 Games?

[123_x_pac]

I couldn't find a topic like this/similar too, so I thought I'd start one. It can be any rating and any year. If you want state why you like it. Here are mine(you can have as many as you want but limit it to like 5 at min and 15 at max):

 

 

 

Grand Theft Auto 4-What can I say, its freaking awsome. I can keep restarting the story mode and not get bored.

 

Call of Duty 4-Really was wanting to get away from WWII battle fronts and this really delivered.

 

Saints Row-Yes,everyone calls it a ripoff of GTA. Tbh, if you play it,it isn't. Many differences,too many to list. Was looking for a game similar to GTA but different. Saints Row had it.

 

 

 

Thats all from me.

[Lenticular_J]

Grand Theft Auto 4. I'm sure once Fable 2 comes out, they'll be tied for my favorites. I still love Halo 3, but I just don't play it due to hating the online multiplayer.

[stevepole]

shouldn't this be called Favorite Xbox 360 Game(s)? and how can you have as many as you want if you want to limit it?

 

 

 

Anyways, I don't really think I have a favorite 360 game but I would have to say I've had the most fun with Gears of War playing coop with my brother, and Halo 3 playing Live last year with a bunch of my friends.

Halo 3- Forging and Grifball

 

Call of Duty 4- Multiplayer

 

Mass Effect- Story line... AND IT HAS BOOKS ABOUT IT :geek:

 

Gears of War- Multiplayer, and many many fun times in campaign (for the record, i just beat it on Hardcore today :D)

[ReapMe]

Bioshock

[Faux]

Mass Effect. I love the tech/biotics/weapon set up console. I love the story too. I understand why people hate the Mako, but it was really easy for me to drive. It's basically just Halo-driving. I wish it was longer though.

[Th3_Crusader]

Oblivion probably. Then when Fable 2 comes out, probably that.

Since limp posted a picture of his favourite game, I might as well do too:

 

 

 

 

 

 

That game has 3 fantastic games, 1 new (formerly) puzzled-style game and an exciting multiplayer all packed into one. 5 games in 1 disc for only $60, I don't think theres a better deal.

 

 

 

On a nearly unrelated note, here's my drawing of the cover:

[jjrox32]

Favorite single-player: Bioshock, The Orange Box.

 

Favorite casual multiplayer to play with friends: COD4

 

Favorite multiplayer shooter overall: Vegas 2

 

 

 

Least favorite: Halo 3. I used to love it, but until bungie fixes the netcode and the broken BR I can't play it.

[Faux]

whats broken about the BR?

[jjrox32]

What's broken about the BR?

 

 

 

First off, the spread of the bullets is completely random. This makes the BR extremely inconsistent and makes battles random. You could either have all bullets flying dead straight or have them all going off to the side. This isn't a huge deal as some make it out to be, but it is annoying.

 

 

 

The next reason is more of a netcoding issue. The 2nd bullet in the burst will (this happens roughly once every five shots or so) just get lost over the internet. 1 bullet might not seem like a huge deal, but it can lead to you having to shoot an extra 1/2 bursts into the person. That can be the difference between life and death, and is very frustrating either way.

 

 

 

The last problem is also with the netcoding. Bullets just won't register sometimes. This and the last issue effect effect all weapons, but the most noticeable are the BR, sniper, and carbine.

[deloriagod]

A bit biased towards the 360, are we. :-w

 

 

 

Don't like it, go make a thread for whatever system you're a fanboy of. :roll:

 

Better yet, go back to 4chan.

 

 

 

On topic:

 

 

 

Halo 3

 

NFS Carbon

 

GTA 4

 

Oblivion

 

 

 

 

 

'Will post reasons later.

[123_x_pac]

Mlb, if your not gonna post anything related towards the topic,don't post. Go back to that stupid 4chan stuff.

[aquariusman]

I guess that was some good flamebait he posted. Remember, if you argue with the trolls, even if you're right, they win.

 

 

 

My favourite games are Guitar Hero 2, Guitar Hero 3, Halo 3, Mass Effect, and the fifth will probably be filled in by Banjo-Tooie: Nuts & Bolts or Fable 2.

 

 

 

Guitar Hero 2 easily has the best set list out of all the music games. Also, it is much more realistic in terms of how accurate you have to be when playing notes, especially Hammer-Ons and Pull-Offs.

 

 

 

Guitar Hero 3 has a more lenient timing code, so it's more relaxing to play for me. The songs are okay, but they are challenging without being frustratingly so, as is the case with Guitar Hero 2 (I don't like having to play Hard, I prefer to be playing Expert). Also, I find Guitar Hero 3's achievements to be better goals for me, because at least I have online for the co-op achievements.

 

 

 

Halo 3 I love in general. The campaign is great for me, even better on co-op. The online, while matchmaking is much better on CoD4, it's the custom games and various mini-games that have spawned off of forge that I love. The Theater lobby is pretty for letting you watch videos of other games, and then File Share just makes custom games all the better. I admit, there are several things that could be fixed, I think that the Hammers are one of them, but I still love it. Also, campaign might as well have infinite challenge. Only 2 players have completed the Campaign on Legendary with all of the Skulls activated. I'm currently doing Legendary Solo (Because I originally did it in co-op) and hope to slowly add more Skulls. That will give me literally days of straight gameplay if I hope to eventually beat Legendary with all Skulls active. Many people will complain that the Halo 3 community is just a bunch of whining 10 year-old kids, but you have to realize that isn't the community. You aren't part of the community just because you play the game. You actually have to contribute to the game to be counted as part of it. Even if you just post on the Bungie.net forums constructively, you are still contributing. Most of the major contributors are very mature and generate awesome content. If you want proof, just check out ForgeHub, the best maps of this half year have been decided.

 

 

 

I have never heard of the BR being "broken", only that it was nerfed since Halo 2. I don't see how the spread is bad in anyway. It's not like you can expect any burst-shot weapon to hit the exact same spot with all three bullets. I guess I'll have to play MLG more to see for myself.

 

 

 

Now on to Mass Effect. I loved the storyline, I don't know of anything similar, and the number of choices you had was amazing, even if most of them led to the same result. Then the achievements give you a reason to play through the entire game multiple times, so if you're obsessed with achievements, it makes the game worthwhile. My only complaint is the side-stories. The worlds that you can explore are in no way unique, most of them just various types of terrain that you have to search to get a few side-stories finished. I actually don't mind the vehicle movement, to me it's the physics that needs to be fixed.

 

 

 

I just loved Fable and Banjo-Tooie, so I hope that they live up to my expectations. If either of them live up to it, or atleast make a decent game, they will probably be put as 5th and 6th just out of nostalgia.

[TheReligiousOne]

Lost Odyssey

 

Oblivion

 

Mass Effect

 

Guitar Hero 3

 

 

 

Fable/Fable 2 will be one.

 

Final Fantasy XIII will also be one :D

 

 

 

Not in any particular order.

The thing that ticks me off about the BR is how the spread is random. I wouldn't care if the bullets went in the exact same wide spread, but sometimes you'll get 3 bullets going dead straight, other times having them go in a very wide spread.

 

 

 

The BR is near-perfect on LAN, but once you hit online and bullets start dropping, that's when it gets bad. If you want to test it, play a game of MLG, go into theatre, and watch the bullet counter on the BR. If it goes from, say, 24 then flickers back to 25, that means a bullet in the spread was lost over the internet and was refunded back to you.

Grand theft auto 4, I guess? I don't know, I haven't really enjoyed that many 360 games and the ones that are good on there (orange box, DMC4) are better on the PC.

I find that a random spread would make it more interesting, more realistic. I always thought that would fit well with MLG.

 

 

 

I can understand your anger about the refunded bullet. It's like doing something amazing that would put points up on the board for your team, but then the referee turns around and says, "Sorry, I blinked, could you do that again?" I also said that I should play MLG more, I have never really noticed any problems with the BR.

[jjrox32]

Look, I don't mind that you like the bullet spread, but for the love of God don't say because it's more realistic :lol: Seriously, Halo ranks up in the most non-realistic games of all time.

 

 

 

MLG players don't really care very much about realism until you get into the Vegas 2 crowd, what the majority of players want is something consistent.
