I only own a 360 and a PSP, so my opinion is going to be based on those two systems.

Assassin's Creed
Mass Effect
Jeanne D'Arc
Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow
Call Of Duty 4
Halo 3

Yo GZA where you been? I'm guessin still playin the 360 Smiler

Man... I haven't touched my 360 in a while... I got sucked in some MMO games on the PC lately. They're horrible (as in horribly addictive).

By the way I was using the nick Carlito's Way and we had a few back-and-forth discussions on TES IV: Oblivion.

But I can't give you this case, it don't belong to me. Besides, I've already been through too much shit this morning over this case to hand it over to your dumb ass.

1. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
2. Guitar Hero 3
3. Mass Effect
4. Bioshock
5. Crysis - I'd only recommend this if you have an extremely nice PC. The story and gameplay are nothing special, but the graphics and physics are amazing.

No particular order.

Assassin's Creed
Manhunt 2
Metroid Prime 3
Bioshock
Mass Effect

still bloody waiting for Super Mario Galaxy to come to my neighbourhood!!


Oh, could I feel as I have felt, or be what I have been,
Or weep as I could once have wept, o'er many a vanished scene;
As springs in deserts found seem sweet, all brackish though they be,
So, midst the withered waste of life, those tears would flow to me.

So the end of 2008..

1. GTA IV
2. Fable 2
3. Fallout 3
4. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
5. Splinter Cell: Conviction
and maybe
6. Burnout Paradise

2008 here I come!

Been so busy lately...holidays...got a baby coming in January...work...etc. I remember those discussions on ESIV though...haven't played that game in a while...in fact, I eventually got kinda bored with the Oblivion portal sections and put it down for good (to me, that was the main problem with the game...those parts just weren't any fun at all).

Right now I'm really into Mass Effect, Halo 3, The Orange Box, and CoD 4...so many great games for the 360 right now...and I'm just finishing up Jeanne D'Arc for the PSP, which is a pretty good strategy game if you have a PSP.

Never played an MMO, but after hearing how addicting they are, I just don't think my wife (or I) could handle it...haha.

It's good to hear back from you, bro, and first and foremost congrats on the new baby! What an awesome way to unwrap the new year! I hope you and your wife had a wonderful holidays leading up to it (which I'm sure you guys did).

Well guess what, I traded in my 360 to get a PS3. Yeah, yeah, I know haha. I really wanted to get a Blue-Ray player and I thought that was the cheapest way to go about doing it. I know most likely I wouldn't play the 360 again if I did get my hands on a PS3, so.. there it went.

And yes you are right, MMO's are extremely addictive. They're evil!

Thanks a lot. We've been getting so anxious about the baby....only 2 weeks to go. Hope you and yours had a happy holidays.

Bummer that you traded in your 360 for a PS3...but I guess you can still play Oblivion at least...haha. PS3 has some pretty good games, and I wish I could get one actually...but with the baby coming, it's doubtful that it will be anytime soon. Enjoy your PS3, and I'll see you around on the general games board now! Smiler
