Lads, Need Help. Recommend Some 360 or Wii Games?

[Patrick]

Mum's asked me to hurry the ****** up and write a list of Games I want this year.

I was going to get Mafia 2 but it look's sh*t in the review, like a 2002 sort of GTA or something or Saints Row, and we all know Saints Row is a fail.


I'm getting The Sims 3 on Xbox, just because EA ******ed it all up in the PC version.

I'm getting The X Factor wii game for the lulz.

So that's 2 games.

I need more.

Any of the lads [or women] on here know any other new cool games out for Xbox or Wii atm?

Should I get COD: Modern Warfare just to try it again?

I'm not gettin' Black Ops because everyone's said it's bollocks and it's dear.

I got AC2 last year and it was so weird, Like the controls and I HATE like CAN'T STAND the fact you can't turn a corner without being told it's unavailable and these silver lines all show up, it makes the game look glitchy and incomplete.

Is that still there in AC3?

[Miss Ivy Balls]

oh and mass effect 1 and 2 are the best games on the xbox imo you should check them out paddy if you havent already

[Niall]

I'm not gettin' Black Ops because everyone's said it's bollocks and it's dear.

You should buy Black Ops.

Modern Warfare 2 is a living nightmare online. There are noob tubers, shotgunners, quickscopers and a bunch of other a-holes who will kill you in every annoying way conceivable.

But in Black Ops, they removed quickscoping (google it if ya don't know what it is), shotgunning, and they have downplayed the noob tube a lot more as well as removing the nuke killstreak which ended a game. As an experienced Mw2 player, Black Ops is so worth the money compared to it, and a lot less frustrating than Modern Crapware 2.

Also in Black Ops you have Zombies (I love zombies :love:) to blow off steam and have fun as well as combat training, which is basically playing online but you're up against the game rather than real people. And you can set the Combat Training difficulty to recruit (easiest difficulty) and just own all the people on the other team - again another great way to blow off steam.

Orrrrr if you really don't wanna get CoD, then consider Fallout: New Vegas. Apart from Black Ops, that game is the sex. :lovedup:

You can like do that in Fallout but you have awesome plasma guns and lazer rifles and its not as cutesy as Fable. :p

[Patrick]

Thanks for all the responses so far guys, Been youtubing the reviews of what you have all mentioned.


Simon, that Fable sounded epic when you described it, it sounded like a new GTA but in the Youtube video it looks like some Super Mario game :laugh: I was like 'How does this guy go and see hookers?'

[Patrick]

those games are great

*Checks out the reviews*

I wish they'd of released Heavy Rain on the 360 still, just saw the trailer again from ages ago on the PS3 :(

[MeMyselfAndI]

[Niall]

I know right? :love:

[KG.]

Left 4 Dead (and Left 4 Dead 2)

Are two of the best games to have been released on the 360. Don't get it if you don't have live though, you need live to get the most out of it.

[Patrick]

I tend to hate games like Halo, Were it's robotic/sci fi kind of sh*t.

You know like all cartoonish and just unrealistic in terms of graphics.
Maybe it's because I spent ages with GTA Games and other games made by Rockstar who never attempt to make any games like Final Fantasy and Halo.

So these all seem abit weird, I just watched that Fall Out New Vegas one on Youtube.

It looks pretty cool, it's like is that a mix between 'Real' and 'Alien'?


The trailer showed a club and these singers, and then it switched to the guy that looked like someone from Halo 3, Shooting a mechanical fly...?

What's that game really about? [Fall Out New Vegas].

[Miss Ivy Balls]

Flight Simulator.

You can fly and everything. You can visit wherever you want. I normally crash when trying to land though or drive in the see. :(

[BB_Eye]

I can't really recommend anything as I haven't played any videogames in months, but the next game I'll be getting for the 360 is Vanquish. It looks like quite a spectacle.

Edit: Oh sorry, you don't like sci-fi shooters. What about fighting games? Blazblue?

[Miss Ivy Balls]

Patrick are you allowed to get 18s?

Obviously you're not, but does your mum let you anyway?

[MTVN]

Is Fable 2 Good? Like what's it about?

I'd get Fable I first, if you've never played that, it's a lot better than 2 and you should be able to get it really cheap because it was an original Xbox game but it's compatible with 360.

Depends what you're into, I'm a bit of an RPG nerd which is why I love Fable so much, so here's some others:

Star Wars KOTOR & KOTOR II (my two favourite games of all time, they'll be cheap as well)
Oblivion
Mass Effect 1 & 2
Dragon Age: Origins
Fallout 3
Sants Row 1 & 2 (more fun than GTA imo)

No, it doesnt I did it a few times, even married a hooker once. Although I was already married and some guy found out and tried to bribe me, I didnt pay him, and I lost my wives :bawling:

Of Course, I've been playing Grand Theft Auto since I was 6. :)

I'm going to apologize in advance because this post is gonna be a bit long.

Fallout is set in an alternate universe.

In the Fallout world, the culture and ideas of the world never progressed past the 50s, and nor did science, the world stayed this way well into the 21st Century.

The U.S.A in Fallout also stayed paranoid and became increasingly militaristic and continued to stockpile nuclear bombs against its rival, Communist China.
The U.S and China's rivalry in Fallout is pretty much on par with how the U.S and the Soviet Union (Which still existed in the 21st century in the Fallout universe) were in the 1950s - 1980s. So the U.S and China had very frosty relations and were continually developing new technology to out-do each other, like new types of nuclear bombs, more powerful battle weapons etc.

As the nations of Fallout progressed into the 20th century, none of them had considered that fossil fuels would run out soon and all of the worlds nations continued consuming them at a rapid rate. The countries eventually started to bicker over what little oil there was left in the late 2040s, eventually leading to massive war between Europe (which had become one country) and the middle east that lasted for 8 long years. At the start of the 2050s the U.N began to collapse and was eventually disbanded in 2052. As the resource wars of the world ravaged on, China invaded Alaska for oil in 2066. The Americans and Chinese forces fought, and amidst this conflict, the U.S annexes Canada to become part of its nation. Eventually, the U.S managed to push out the Chinese forces in 2077, but that was not nearly as bad as what was going to happen.

By 2077, oil prices had spiralled out of control, standing at $1450 per gallon for regular petrol. As the year of 2077 wears on, the U.S claims the last known source of oil on Planet Earth which was under the pacific ocean. The American government turns the new oil rig into a base incase there was a massive attack against them. They also implement the plan: Project Safehouse. This was a plan to build several hundred massive nuclear fallout shelters or 'Vaults' which had been completed during 2077. These Vaults could hold thousands of people at any one time and were designed to protect the American public but some sinister experiments were being carried out on them, unbeknownst to the inhabitants.

Their fears about an attack rang true on October 23rd. The sky is filled with thousands of nuclear bombs. Air raid sirens sounded, but not many people headed the warning to get to shelter (the Vaults) as they thought it was just another drill. When they discovered the horror of nuclear war had come true, the Vault doors had already sealed and they were cast aside to experience the nuclear fire.

During 2 brief hours, the surface of the Earth had gone through untold changes. Roads were obliterated, plants and wildlife were destroyed and continents altered beyond belief. When the people inside the Vaults ventured out for the first time (usually after 20 years inside), they discovered a world rendered unrecognisable by the nuclear holocaust. Those lucky (or unlucky) souls that survived the turmoil outside of a vault were often hideously mutated, just like most other creatures on the surface of this new scorched planet.

Watch this if you cba to read all that lmao (I wouldn't blame you, sorry I'm a bit of a Fallout geek :L), its the Fallout 3 intro, it should explain most things:

My son bought Bioshock recently and said its good if thats any help

[Tom4784]

XBOX
Bayonetta - It's epic and very bizarre but if you like Devil May Cry/ God of War/ Dante's Inferno, you'll like this.
Mass Effect 1&2 - two of my favourite games, make sure to get both of them though as you can import your character from the first game into the second and the decisions you made in the first game carry over to the second. They're both quite cheap now too.
Batman: Arkham Asylum - AMAZING game, Very atmospheric and creepy in parts.
Dead Rising 2 - It's fun although it has soem similar problems to the first one so if you didn't liek that you might not liek this one.

WII
No More Heroes 1&2 - Brilliant, just brilliant.
Tatsunoko Vs Capcom - It's a great fighting game, very fun.
Trauma Centre - I like these games, you play as a surgeon and you have to operate on people, sounds dull but it's incredibly addictive.
Goldeneye - Not as good as the N64 version but if you like Call of duty you'll like this.
Metroid: Other M - I like this a lot, It's very polished and probably one of the best Wii games.
Super Snash Bros Brawl - It's a must.
