And even then, it doesn't have as many options for multiplayer as Halo 2

IMO, GoW's multi-player should be the standard by which other console shooters are judged.

The tendency for console players to run-n-gun is completely eliminated. GoW is the only le I have ever played that a console player just might be able to hang with a PC player.

Because if youre using Halo as some sort of benchmark, the best Halo console player would get straight murdered by the best PC player.

Mouse and Keyboard >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Controller.

if they can devote there time on short games, i see no reason why they cant bring out expansions for it if its that popular....and mods suck also

at least for pc games, mods are where the ideas for some of the most popular games came from. counterstrike was a half life mod, team fortress was a quake mod, and even capture the flag (part of most fps games when they ship now) was a quake 1 mod. good mods get people hired by big game companies and make the fan base feel as though they have input, which is a great thing. companies like iD and valve release the tools to build mods so people can put what they would have wanted in the game, which is awesome and keeps the fan base loyal.

I don't think the GoW multiplayer in itself should be the benchmark. The playstyle itself is what keeps you from running and gunning. If the Halo 2 options could be used with the GoW cover and shoot play, then it'd be heaven.

Battlefield 2 was developed after the people were hired who made the Desert Combat mod for BF1942.

The control scheme works remarkably well, IMO. I could never play Halo on a console for one reason, I knew I could murder the compe ion on my PC, but was limited by the console controller.

Even now, playing GoW, I am getting my ass handed to me regularly because of my non-skill with aiming on a joypad. But at least I am improving because of the absolute NEED for cover. Everyone, even the best players, must be in cover if they wish to live long.

I just enjoy the semi-realistic nature of having to constantly search for the best cover. Moving from cover to cover when advancing, flanking manuvers that actually work, strong melee...

You misunderstood me.

I agree that it works well.

GoW is awesome, Project 8 is eh.

Do I need Half LIfe 2 to play HL2 Episode One? And are they both worth getting?

[Texas_Ranger]

Do I need Half LIfe 2 to play HL2 Episode One? And are they both worth getting?

Nope you don't need it. I played them both and they are one of the best games I played.

[baseline bum]

Don't get it on XBox, if that's what you're thinking. Next month Valve is going to release a native XBox 360 version with the HL2, and Episodes 1 & 2. Disregard if you meant getting it on PC though, because if you have the hardware, FPS are always way better with a mouse and keyboard IMO.

[MannyIsGod]

PC. You're right on about a mouse + keyboard. 34083049830438 times better than a controller.

I have decent hardware. Nvidea 7600GS with 512, 1.5 gigs of RAM, Athlon 64 3400. My soundcard sucks but whatever. It was good enough to run FEAR at some good settings at a decent frame rate.

There's a few stories out there about problems with the Wii controllers.

How in the does someone just let go of their controller straight into their expensive TV?

If your hands get THAT sweaty during a videogame, you really need to stop playing "virtual" sports and start going outside more and swing a real bat.

[dirk4mvp]

Yeah, so I got a 360. It came bundled with Burnout. I picked up NBA 2k7 today. Probably start playing it around christmas.

[TDMVPDPOY]

i read that wii is allowin call backs on their controllers to replace the strap lace with a wider one.....

[dirk4mvp]

Yeah.

I played my first bit of 2k7, and it ing owns every sports game ever. The detail, the animations, the graphics, it owns. Whenever I get XBL kicking prepare to get your asses handed to you.

[Mixability]

Whats a good racing game for the 360. I played N for S Carbon on the PS2 and wasn't loving it. Anything better out there for the 360?

Wait for Forza 2

I"m trying out the World of Warcraft trial. I don't see whats so special about this.

i've never played it, but to those with geekier habits it tends to take over their lives. especially those with no lives who like to pretend they are actually a damn troll or wizard or whatever.

Brings back memories of being scared less during Resident Evil back in the day. ing zombie dogs jumping in through the windows.
