Just received my Wireless XBox 360 controller from OCUK and now I need some games to play. I'm getting PES2008 tonight, however I'd like a racing game and maybe a space sim, any suggestions?
 
If you are buying pes2008 for online play I would strongly advise against it the online is laggy buggy and basically annoyingly unplayable.
Even when you get a half decent game it still lags and scorelines are cricket scores the keepers and shooting are that bad.
My copy is still gathering dust I tried recently to see if things had improved online to no avail and I swiftly reached for alt f4 during a lag fest of a game against a fellow Londoner.
Back on the shelf gathering dust.

Yeah i agree its very very bad, i went out and bought Fifa 08 for the PC to play a footie game online as PES 08 is rubbish.
 
Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones, Gears of War and Test Drive Unlimited of the top of my head. Just noticed that it's the wireless version so you may not get the rumbling on these games though. I have the wired version and it rumbles superbly!

bioshock was made for that 360 pad. and besides, ill take sitting on the sofa with a 360 pad infront of a large tv and a loud sound sytem over sitting at your desk with a mouse and a keyboard. every time :cool:


thanks for the rolleyes by the way. i obviously dont play any other games with a keyboard and mouse, right?
 
Tempted by Sega Rally, I assume it's an updated version from the Arcade machines?

So is FIFA08 better than PES08? I've also been told PES was the better game?

TBH neither are that great on the PC.

On the 360 FIFA ****'s all over PES for a change though.

Wouldn't bother getting either one of them. They are both rubbish. FIFA has the proper kits and what have you but is boring to play. PES doesn't have anything proper (though you can get unofficial patches for this) and still plays poorly.
