I've been hitting the older titles lately. Not sure why...
Need for Speed: Most Wanted - After giving up on this a few months ago because it got too hard (with about 5 blacklist memebers to go) I have picked it up again and only have 2 members left now. I dunno why I'm suddenly able to continue with this but the difficulty seems more about not making mistakes. If you crash hard in one of the longer races you will prob never get back to 1st place so it's better to just restart. So it takes a great run to win but I've been making great progress and have really enjoyed this game.
Also playing Prey which is good but I'm not sure I'm going to stick with it. I'm not too far into the game but am already kinda tired of the gooey walls.
I'm currently playing through Red Steel. Its enjoyable, I like using the Wii remote for aiming.
My 360 has been dormant since I finished Crackdown, but I've been feeling like firing Crackdown back up and trying to get some more of the achievements.
The single player is one of the best times I've had on the 360 yet. I spent a little time watching one flew over the coo coo's nest with my lover, then I went out and wasted some baddies with my guns and demons.
Multiplayer is nuts. Kind of like a half life or a quake, but really strange with the minion's mixed in. The lag was so bad at times that I couldn't kill anything.
I'm a online addict, but the single player is so good, I have really been only playing that.
Topic clarified. I was hoping to keep this 360-related. Personally I've mostly been playing my PS2 but was hoping to get impressions about 360 games in this thread. Sorry.
Transformers The Game (Love it!) and Gun. I finally got another copy of Gun and this one works on my system so yay! Also Forza 2 of course. I'm hoping to get DiRT soon (If EB would phone me already...) and we also might be getting the new HP game.
WoW has sucked me in for the last month or so I'm still playing the following however:
360: Enchanted Arms, Guitar Hero II
DS: Elite Beat Agents, Final Fantasy III, Castlevania: CotM
I've mostly just been playing NHL 2K7 lately. A buddy of mine and I started playing Gears of War again on co-op Hardcore though and that was a blast. I think I'm going to have to rent The Darkness & I'd like to play Overlord as well, that seems like it'll be good. Anyone know about it?
Currently Playing: Psychonauts, NHL 2K7, Super Paper Mario, Goldeneye 007
Have you guys downloaded the demo of the new Area 51 game, Blacksite (I think thats what it's called)? It lasts under 10 minutes but holy crap do I really want that game now!
Are there any shooting games for Xbox360 that let you tell your A.I. teammates what to do via the headset instead of button presses? There was a S.W.A.T. game for Xbox and PS2 that let you do that but I never got to try it.
I got back into SC:Double Agent last night. Very, very cool game. I don't know why I stopped playing it a few months ago but I'm on the cruise ship level and it's just so damn cool.

I have that, I hope people still play it online. I beat the GCN version last month but a lot of the levels are changed in the last-gen versions so I'm looking forward to playing the "real" version.
Also I forgot what topic it was in, but you recommended I play Condemned so I downloaded the demo last night...holy crap it was good. I'll be picking that up soon for sure. I also need to get Rainbow Six: Vegas, that game is one of the reasons I wanted a 360.
well lets get Gears of War and Splinter Cell DA out of the way since i beat campaign in both but still play the multiplayer, they arent really currently playing to me since i always play them and plan to play them now and then for a while
so...currently playing
Tenchu Z
Overlord
The Darkness
must say june was a good month of games for me. Probably the best since last Novemeber.
Ive always been a big fan of the Tenchu series and Tenchu Z certainly doesnt disappoint me. The missions get a bit repetitive but that should be a given since it is 50 missions. Stealth killls are a blast as always and you can customize your character a ton with different moves and clothes. Plus the online co-op is awesome with friends.
Its nothing like Ninja Gaiden really, thats like full out action and as i said Tenchu Z is more of a stealth game. I think if you go in playing it looking for a similar Ninja Gaiden experience you will be disappointed.

Yeah, Condemned is sweet. It was the first real "wow" game for me on the 360.
I'm up to 185.4% in SoTN. I know of 2 places(same place, both Castles) I missed. If I remember, don't you need to do the sword glitch, fly outside, to get 210.5%?
25% is still missing. I hope the areas I missed, bring it up to like 195%.
I also noticed that in the lower levels, I can't jump up into the water. Am I missing something?

I just finished Def Jam Icon.
I also downloaded some demos.
Ace Combat 6, NCAA Football 2008, The Bigs, DiRT, Harry Potter, Blue Dragon, Juiced 2...didn't really care for any of those. I did have some fun with the new Stuntman demo though.

Started playing Saints Row and am really enjoying it. It feels like a GTA3 update...better graphics and controls but basically the same vibe. Very fun so far.

Of course....but only if you have a decent PC that you just upgraded.
PC is dead to me now. I'm all next-gen-console-boy now. Except for WoW. Ace Combat 6 looks frickin' sweet, I'll give it that. I'm considering it, and I haven't even considered a flight sim in over a decade.
Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars Xbox 360
Virtua Fighter 5 PS3 and Motor Storm PS3
Pacman C.E. Xbox 360 Live
Hotel Dusk: Room 215 DS
Super Paper Mario Wii
Gears of War, Nascar 08, LOTR BFME ll, Call Of Duty 2, and NCAA Football 08 here..
MyAlterEgo - You didnt like CS Source? Neither did i..im still a big fan of CS 1.6 ...i just wish they would make something like cs source on the 360..i didnt like the original counter strike on xbox because it was based on condition zero, and the controls werent very smoothe, but if they put some effort into a cs source related game for the 360 it would make for a good online title.
