Howdy,

I'm still considering getting a 360, but wouldn't know what game(s) I would get with it if I bought one say tomorrow.

So my question is, if you didn't own a 360, and where heading out to pick yourself up one, what ONE game would you get with it?

I have a few id choose, so just want to see which one of those pops up (if it does)?

Well Im seriously considering getting Condemned... I don't particuly want it on the PC, I think it looks better on the 360... has anyone got this on the 360? Any good?

Also is GRAW as good as reviews say, graphically it looks awesome, but whats gameplay like? Looks abit repeatative to me?

And finally, can anyone download the demos in Marketplace? If I get the premium pack then I get Silver membership right? Does that give me the right to download demos? I want to download Just Cause on the 360 and try that out, as I have it on the PC and the controls SUCK and it has no pad support!
 
Just went out and got a 360 Premium pack and a VGA HD adaptor (official MS one) to plug the baby into my 2407.

I ended up getting 3 games... not my intention though. I bought the machine on its own, cos there where no good games in the deal, so then went elsewhere to see what was about. Saw TR Legend for £29.99 and I LOVE TR, although I have this on the PC, I had to get it on the box, for the graphic enhancements, and the controls!

Then I really wanted Condemend, so went elsewhere and saw it for £49.99... thought, no chance at that price. But it was on a deal, buy it get another free, so picked that up and GRAW... effectively got GRAW for free, so not too bad.

Gonna download Dead Rising as I do really wanna check that out.

Feel in debt now though... especially as Im in the process of buying a place in London :(
 
smcshaw pretty much all games i like.

I already have Hitman, COD2, Prey on the PC... first persons really belong on the PC for me, but I felt diff with condemned as that dont have many guns, so dont require the ease of the mouse control. Also it was really made for the box, so it will be better on there.

Really desperate to try out Dead Rising, as so many people like that, so wanna get that d/l. Also want to get the demo of Just Cause, to see if the controls on the 360 are better than thr shoddy ones i have on the PC version.

Don't get a 360 then if you don't like racers and also feel FPS's belong on the PC (which I disagree with).

Calm down my man, there are other types of games, also xbox exclusives, and as you say too late cos i already got one :) Take it you are a fan of racers... sorry if I offended you :eek:

I was DEFFO gonna get a 360, simply to get Splinter Cell on it, im a HUGE SC fan, and completed the last 3 bout 1000 times all on the xbox... wouldn't be right getting it on the PC.

Also I have another question. I initialy plugged my xbox in with the componant connected, went to set up my res and it gave the HDTV options of 720, 1080 etc. 1080 flickered on my 2407, so went to 720 and that was ok.

Well I then plugged the offical VGA i bought and the options changed to proper resolutions as we know them 640x480 etc. I set it to the highest and it looked FANTATIC. Anyway my question is, games say on them if they support 720, 1080 etc... well does that effect the fact that i am running it in resolutions? i.e. a game that only supports 720, well I res fall down cos of that?

Hope that makes sense?

it does look much better, but the main reason i got it was cos i heard the componanbt on the 2407 was LANGUAGE!, so I thought.... save myself a trip and get it now, deffo worth the dough! And when I set it to the full res, it looked great.

Gotta see what games look like yet :)

Gotta admit that PGR looks great, just racing games bore me too much, each to their own though!
 
Yeah I downloaded the demo of dead rising, gotta admit I didnt like it too much. It did feel like, just kill the zombies here thats it, didn;t really know what the aim of the demo was.

But I hear the full game is better... just not willing to slash out £44 on it if its not.

On the other hand I just downloaded the saints row demo, thats is impressive, really liked the feel to that game!
