Holy shit guys, I might be getting a 360!

Umm you buy those Geometry Wars and that other game in the Xbox Live marketplace. Xbox Live Arcade i think? You have to buy them using microsoft points though, and they only sell them in set number of points, forcing you to buy 20 dollars worth of points when you only need like 100 more points to buy something you want.

Turok is good, if havent already play it on PS3.

Nice nice. I do hope you get it. And your list is pretty much what i would recommend.

Add The Last Remnant and Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

Yeah, and that's not even all of them. I also want a bunch of Arcade games, and other upcoming games like RE5 and FFXIII

How about Fable II and Farcry 2

I see what you mean..there are some games that I forgot to put on my list..(Dynasty Warriors Gundam, The Last Remnant, Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe etc. I didn't even bother putting RE5 or FFXIII because I don't know when those games will come out, for all I know they will come out next Christmas lol..

nice to hear that

I actually don't recommend DC vs MK. It just.. feels too different.

About time you're getting rid of that piece of crap and getting a real gaming machine.

<3 agreed 100%. I used to stand by the Wii all the way, but after a year or so of game releases, I've moved on to stand by the 360. Now I finally understand what people mean when they say that the Wii is aimed at casual gamers and such.

You going for Command and Conquer 3? Is the control good with 360 controller?

Well, at any rate, congrats! Wii's full of motions, leave that task to gym equipment I say! 360's actions are so much better!

But, I dunno, I don't really like FPS with consoles, the control is a bit awkward and doesn't really listen to me, leave them to PC I say, better het your hands on something better

If you have friends to play with, or at least online friends to, Left 4 Dead is a blast. I can't get enough of it.

[quote name='War' post='1622975' date='Dec 11 2008, 12:25 PM']Woo-hoo! Finally, after SO MUCH TIME of wishing I had a 360, I might just be getting one! Although I will be trading my Wii for it, I don't really mind since I always wanted a 360 so much more. IM SO EXCITED! This is the perfect Christmas present for me!

I'm gonna make a list of the games I want to play:

GTA IV
Bio Shock
The Orange Box
Gears 1 and 2
COD 4
COD 5
Elder Scrolls IV
Halo 3
Fallout 3
Mass Effect
Braid
Geometry Wars: RE2
Portal
Dead Space
Left 4 Dead
Soul Calibur IV
Dead Rising
F.E.A.R.
Silent Hill 5
Civ
Prince of Persia
Viva Pinata
Castle Crashers
Megaman 9
C&C 3
Assassin's Creed

And that's only a couple of them @_@ Are there any other games you guys recommend I try? Also, how do I get games such as SFIITHDR and Geometry Wars? Is it kind of like buying WiiWare games?[/quote]
Isn't Portal in the Orange Box?

TALES OF VESPERIA TALES OF VESPERIA TALES OF VESPERIA TALES OF VESPERIA TALES OF VESPERIA

how do I get games such as SFIITHDR and Geometry Wars? Is it kind of like buying WiiWare games?

yeah
you buy some Microsoft points. Redeem 'em. Buy
but you need an Xbox live account (you want the gold one, trust me)

i can't wait to get a xbox 360 and mod it

Go for it! I'm also recommend Viva Pinata 2 and as you want RE5, I recommend you to try out the Resident Evil 5 Demo!

Yes, Portal is in TOB. I actually meant Portal: Still Alive! Sorry!

So where do I buy Microsoft Points? EB Games and such? How do you redeem them? And how much do those games usually cost? Cause I want a LOT of arcade games.... too bad it doesn't work like the Wii where you can download WiiWare/VC through wads if your Wii is hacked :\

Can't answer your first 2 questions since i don't live in the USA
but for the others, arcade gsmes usually cost from 500 to 800 microsoft points and SOME of them cost 1200 (Braid, SF2T HD Remix)
EDIT: forgot about the redeeming question
it's easy! just go to the game you wanna purchase and then you'll find the redeeming option (you can also redeem from xbox.com)

That's a lot of games.
