Best Live Arcade Games?
- Thread starter TheDean
- Start date
Well I like Boom Boom Rocket (just out for 800 points) and Texas Hold em Poker (but I did get this free). Uno has a strange appeal too, but you ever fancy getting the camera there's a good bundle deal going for the camera + Uno + Robotron (rubbish) + Totemball (balls) + 200 points + 1 year gold for £50.
I bought quite a few arcade games but never really play them, they seem like a good idea at the time though.
I'd save your cash and get some of the earlier games which can be had for £10 and up brand new.
I'm going to recommend "Condemned" again as it is the most scary and atmospheric jump out of your seat gaming experience I have ever had. Although "Thief" was damned good too on the PC.
Cloning Clyde or the lemonade space station thing if it has to be on Live!.

Coolio, not enough condemned love around these parts, except where McD is concerned but that is a different kind of condemned love.
Don't read any spoilers or guides on your first play through it'll ruin it for you.
The old condemned thread is here:

I play it alone in the dark after everyones gone to bed on a huge TV with 5.1 sound because I'm that hard
Then I turn on all the lights downstairs before I go to bed lol.

Think I am going to have to play comdemned through again.
It was one of the first 360 games I played and loved it. Got a new sound system now as well so it should be super scary.

Its Friday 13th today as well, an even better reason to start playing it
The games that I've bought:
Heavy Weapon - superb, probably the most fun I've had out of all the Arcade games.
Worms - obviously very limited single player, but great fun with a few mates.
Street Fighter 2 - much, much harder than I remember it being.
Doom - as good as always.
Castlevania - not really had a chance to play it yet but obviously superb game.
Texas Hold 'Em - good fun if you're into poker, and also a good way to learn the game.
