Recommended games for XBOX 360? - Page 3

While Cod4 is also very good, I still prefer Gears for a number of reasons. Then again, I dont know how well you can or should compare a fps with a 3rd person shooter.

My only gripe with Cod4 is while it has amazing graphs, there are too few levels showing them off, or too much dark indoor levels not showing off the graphs - take your pick

I can't believe no-one has recommended BioShock.

Call of Duty 4 is awesome and i love it, but you can't own a 360 without BioShock in your collection.

Stunning game

Dead Rising is also highly recommended if you like a Resident Evil type of game.

The one thing I'll give GoW over CoD4 is cover fire. You can't hide behind something and peak out or over it to fire.

Bioshock was a great game but I returned it after I beat it. It's not a great game for repeat value (it was beyond awesome that first playthrough though).

I also back the earlier recommendations for the Orange Box, HL2 is an awesome, awesome game.

I think the cover system is a required element now in fps.

It made Rainbox Six Vegas a joy to play.

I've been saying that ever since RBSV showed how it's done. Since then I'm amazed every time I see a fps'er released that doesnt include the cover system

Well, I can understand some games that don't. Like Halo for instance, it's not based on reality, it's all about crazy antics, jumping and running so I can see it not having that. A game based in reality as much as CoD4 it's a shame they don't have it in there. Playing it on the hardest difficulty is mind bendingly hard.

Now, I know GoW had the cover system and it's far from reality but that was also the major selling point for the game itself.
