What game to buy

Post by PainRack »

Sigh, my cash situation is still badly fucked up, but I'm bored shitless and I think I can dig into my savings to afford one X-box game this New year.

So, considering the below titles, which one do you think should be purchased?
1. MechAssault 2
2. Halo 2
3. SW battlefront.

Get a PlayStation 2, then beg, borrow, buy or steal GTA: San Andreas. It's worth it. Trust me.

I couldn't tell you anything about MA2 except all of my Halo 2 friends are getting it and they say they love it. Meh, I was never really into the whole MechWarrior/Assault thing. If all you have is an XBox, then I'm going to go with Halo 2. If you have any other choices though, Metroid Prime 2 or San Andreas. I guess unless your wanting something online, then it's back to Halo 2. :D

Isn't it out on X-box too? Or is it worth it just to play it with nice hand-sized controllers?

Uh...nope. And likely never given Sony played hardball with Rockstar. It'll come for the PC, eventually they say.

As the game itself goes...if you liked the first two then yes, it's worth it.

Oh. So it was just III & Vice City that were released on both?

Bah. I'd care if I was any good at anything that wasn't Final Fantasy (or similar).
