Title: Are there any games worth buying right now for the Xbox?
Post by: GigaShadow on March 15, 2002, 05:52:29 AM
Ok I have some cash to spend and I wanted to get an Xbox game, but I was looking yesterday and ended up getting New Legends (still haven\'t opened it).  I didn\'t want another PS2 game because I still have 5 I haven\'t even played yet and my wife monopolizes the PS2 playing FFX.  Sooooo I have beaten Halo, I am sick of racing games so I DON\'T want Rally Sport and I am not into sports sims.  What options do I have left?  Please no sarcasm...  I even went over to the PS2 section I was that distressed and saw nothing that I really wanted.  Not to mention our 1 freaking memory card is almost full (I can\'t find a PS2 memory card anywhere).  

I have Project Gotham, Halo and Wreckless.  I was thinking Bloodwake because its sort of like Twisted Metal, but heard the controls were a bit difficult.  If any of you have any serious suggestions let me know.  Thanks.

::feels the wave of sarcastic responses building::

The only game thats looking good to me is Gun Valkryie. I\'ve managed to play a playable demo of it and I was impressed greatly.   Other then that, I would recommend checking out Jet Grind Radio Future, Rallisport, theres a couple of others I\'ve played and Liked, but those are the only 3 games I can think of.  oh and BTW, GV isn\'t out for at least another week:)

Yeah I own the DC version and really don\'t feel the new one is worth buying...

How sad, not even a decent game to buy... I guess I will stick with New Legends, at least that way I can play something while my wife hogs the PS2.:yawn:

What about Munch?  

And you might want to rent JSRF before you write it off...the gameplay has been overhauled.  Grinding and tagging have never been so easy...and fun!!

With money to spend, why not give it a go?

You can\'t miss out on RSC!!  Your next bet is Grind Radio Future, Oddworld, Gun Valkryie.   But Blood Wake is cool too. I just bought it and it has fun sea battles.  The water effects own!!1

True but the only game out that would tempt me to get a Box would be HALO, now that i have played it its just jumped to Project EGO !

LIONHEAD had better not F%^& this one up like they did Black & White and Breaveheart !

The water looks horrible - you could think that the water is running at a lower-framerate than the rest of the game.

As for any other games... well DoA3? After all it\'s the only beat\'em up...
