I got a 360 a few months ago & have been playing Call Of Duty 2 for a while & its starting to get boring. Im looking in buying a new game but Im not completely sure of what games on the 360 are really good. Ive heard that not many are, but I want to know what you guys think is good. Ive been looking at reviews on Elder Scrolls 4:Oblivion but im still not sure if its what I want to get. I like first person games & I believe Oblivion is a from a first person perspective. I just want some feed back from those out there who have played it on 360.

I don't own a 360 yet but I've played it a lot at other places and also played COD2 and Oblivion for PC. Oblivion is a very good game. It has many action elements with good story telling and an open GTA like fantasy world. Much easier to get into more so then Mirrowind or Final Fantasy. It does require a time investment though because of all the cotent. Perfect Dark Zero is ok but won't keep you entertained for a long time. Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter is good. The 360 version is different from the PC version because it's more of an action game then a tactical game. There aren't really any good FPS games on the 360. Aviod Quake 4, Battlefield Modern Combat, Far Cry Instincts, you you want to know why just say so and I can explain in further detail. There are a few decent 3rd person action games. Tomb Raider Legend is fun but like Perfect Dark it's short. The Outfit is WWII game that is more acrady type shooter then COD2 but still fun. Hitman Blood Money is a fun game. My biggest recommendations would have to be Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter and Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion.

Why not Battlefield 2, I love playing it on PC. Is it just not as good as the PC version?

Yeah I love playing it on the PC also. But the Modern Combat really isn't the same game. The multiplayer is just medicore. It tries to be a single player game because it's a console game but it's really boring. Think of BF2 minus all the team aspects and you can switch to any character to win the battle yourself while the rest of the team is just brain dead doing retarded things. It has elements of the PC version but it's very, very watered down and really a different game. A differernt game that isn't very good. Stick with the PC version.

Thanks for the information Abyss. I bought Obliviona few days ago & I love it. I have my 360 hooked up to an HDTV & it looks gorgeous.

I just LOVE Orlando Bloom
Wow, did FarCry really go that far down the tube? The original one rocked (even if the acting is rather corny).
Orlando Bloom is sooooo handsome

The original PC version did rock. But the Xbox and 360 versions are just milking the series to make more money. They weren't even made by Crytek they were just ports and generic FPS levels made by like Ubisoft Toronoto. Crytek should have made them and then they would have been good. I think Crysis will definetely be a decent followup to Far Cry although it isn't a true sequel I don't think.
