Hahahaha that game is so addictive. DOUBLE BLACK HOLE OH SNAP BAIL OUT! Also, the marble game that's floating around XBLA. I played the demo and produced a couple of swear words that I hadn't used for years. Reminds me a bit of the Monkey Ball series.
Both are well worth playing the demos. I also played Alien Homonid as well but that seemed so shallow.
Real games? Eh, Gears of War is ok. Multi seems to be filled with trash-talking teenagers like every other online game. Depends on what kind of games you enjoy. Maybe hold off until a killer app comes along.

). Doesn't help that Global Defence Force (EDF2) for PS2 has been pushed back to later this year now (hey that'll mean it's been delayed over and over for about a year).

I'm not sure when it's out in the US/Europe though.

The GDF delays make me glad that I imported it instead of waiting for a local release.

Can't you just pay some bum to buy them for you? Or are you saying the stores don't even carry them?
Because all 3 of those are definitely worth getting (though Crackdown is more of a rental).

QuoteKDR lives in Germany. They have very strict rules against violence in games (more so than in America). Many games that are rated M here are AO in Germany. As a result, most stores won't carry them and--for all intensive purposes--they're pretty much banned.

Gears of War and Dead Rising are both good games if you can find them I recommend getting them.
Other then that I would recommend:
- Bullet Witch (I love this game, Its a bit like Devil May Cry and Ghost in the Shell, If you liked those games you might like this one, the graphics are a bit weak)
- Burnout Revenge (Just like the Xbox and PS2 version But a lot nicer looking!)
- Dead or Alive 4 (Great Fighting game)
- Dead or Alive Xtream 2 (This one is an aquire taste, if you like dating sim type games, volleyball, Jet sky and a few mini-games its a lot of fun.)
- Enchanted Arms (an underrated classic Japan style RPG)
- Ninety-Nine Nights (Its alot like Dynasty Warriors, but to me it was better)
- Perfect Dark Zero (Its not a great game, but its fun for a bit, Its worth the Platinum Hit price.)
- Saints Row (A excellent GTA clone, in fact I like it more then GTA)
- Star Trek: Legacy (If your a StarTrek fan this game is a must play, other wise pass on it)
- Tomb Raider: Legend (Just like the Xbox, PS2 and GCN versions, but a whole lot beautiful looking, If you haven't played it play it here!)
- Ninja Gaiden (Yes its a Xbox game but its still great!)
-Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (XboxLive Arcade)
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (XboxLive Arcade)

-Viva Pinata (A unique and above all else FUN game that is challenging as well)
-Ghost Recon
-Kameo (I personally thought the game was quite good)
-Oblivion (If you don't have a powerful enough PC)
-Lost Planet (not sure if this out there yet, but it worth a look)

I think these guys have the best game lineups pretty much covered, just based on my limited knowledge.
Post by: Spak-Spang on March 16, 2007, 10:58:33 AM
It is basically Robo Cop meets GTA. The game isn't bad but, you really do have to make your own fun, and enjoy the sandbox type games.
Gears of War is probably the best Xbox 360 game I have played. There are still tons of flaws in the game...and I would recommend playing the game on a large screen otherwise you can get lost in the action, and if you can brighten up the image on the screen that is important to.

Actually Crack down is more like GTA meets Generic meets no creativity

I'm over 18, thankyouverymuch. Stores don't carry indexed games because they can't put them on shelves (they can but the restrictions are too tough for anyone to bother). AFAIK retailers in the US refuse to stock AO games which is why I made the comparison.
Many games that are rated M here are AO in Germany.
Not many actually. M rated games are usually rated 16 or 18, indexing is very rare.
