OK I've gotten through GOW and LP and am looking for new games that people have played that are similar to these,I like shooters and Is there a real good driving game out for 360?

    G.R.A.W.
    G.R.A.W. II
    Rainbow Six: Vegas
    Dead Rising (I loved this game, but many said it was too hard).

    PGR3 was fun, but I would wait for Forza 2.

    Prey is your best bet for a monster future shooter.

    Prey is awesome, they really played up the organic nature of the world and the weapons (one of the weapons is actually an aliens arm and the 'nades are little bugs...). and the portal system and gravity flipping is a head trip... Definitely worth getting!!!

    Yeah, gravity flipping. That one takes a little getting used to. :confused: But it's a trip.

    BTW, I don't play the game anymore (makes me sick, literally). The copy is minty if you're interested. 25 clams + shipping if you want it.

    I was going to suggest Halo 3 as the old standby. It was supposed to be released this month. I just checked CC and BB and they list it as a November release. When did they push it back? I've been waiting on this...

    PL, play the demos. Prey is in the marketplace.

    complicated:confused:

    I played the demo and all you do is kill zombies non-stop with a bat or shotgun...seemed easy enough

    is the real game complicated?

    The main reason I have heard people don't like it is that it's very time oriented. Basically, if you don't get **** done -- you lose and have to start over at the last save, and save points aren't readily available.

    Also, the psycopaths are relatively hard to kill, but there is a strategy for them all.

    I ended up finishing the game with an ending, which I believe was ending A according to the screen. I still have overtime mode to finish, though.

    The fact you can pick up anything and kill the zombies is what makes the game fun. Just wait until you get into the hardware store in the mall area that's under construction. They have an auger tool that's just unbelievable.

    do you have xbox live? titles are all two different beasts and like two games in one when you play online vs single player campaign mode.

    did you have the old xbox? if not, get halo 1 & 2 to tide you over until 3 comes out. of course, they are not widescreen games.

    I know Forza is on the horizon, but you may be able to find a copy of PGR3 used for a good price. GREAT racing game imho...

    I can't stop playing PGR3,but I can see what you mean Demi about getting sick of it pretty soon.I think I like the Rally game on the regular Xbox the most so far in racing games.But then again I've only tried a few so far.
