Had an Xbox for about 2 months now (hence why there have been no streamizm archives uploaded for umm 2 months...). Had a ps2 before, ps1 before that and thats about it.

Am flitting between pgr4/assassins creed/fifa when I'm not wasting entire weekends on oblivion

mostly CoD4 online and Heavenly Sword with the occasional Warhawk session when one of my mates is on.

Started Mass Effect on the 360 but not really got into it properly..

assassins creed..

As it is a great game to play,

it gets repetitive up until the last few hours.

and i think a man of your caliber could complete it swiftly.

How's CoD4 on the Xbox? I've got it on PC but haven't touched it since getting the box.

COD4 on the xbox is brilliant

Graphics = 9
Gameplay = 9
Replay value = 9 (online alone)

All the little bits.. where u have to rapidly tap the buttons when someone jumps out @ you

Them set pieces are brilliant.

And the rag-doll physics really bring you into the setting.

I completed it and it was probably one of the best games i've played on the 360.

i was guna get it for the PS3.. but i thought since i've already completed it, would i want the same thing on the PS.

Picked Ratchet, didnt i

Online COD4 is next level >>>>

the 1 player is short, but the best pure fps i've played - the feedback of the guns, the enemy AI etc is spot on

Yeah

throwing a 'nade and watching them scurry around out of blast range.. or even throwing it right back at you

I was prawned many a time, by that.

Sounds like I need to get my shit together then, will trade some old uns for CoD4 otherwise I'll never get round to playing it.

it looks promising - there's a fair few co-op (online also) shooters coming out - Haze can have 4 players on it.

wouldn't go about reserving this at your local GAME chaps.

on a general tip i'm genuinely interested to hear what ps3 EXCLUSIVE games you ps3 adopters be lookin forward to over the next year or so asides from Metal Gear 4, Final Fantasy XIII and Gran Turismo 5. I will one day be pickin up a ps3 (as i said earlier in the thread, when the Ico team release their game and the machine costs £200) but am, as it stands, completely unsold on the current and future range of exclusive titles. What looks good in your eyes??
