These are my favorite all-time games...

Halo 1 and 2
ESPN NFL 2K5
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Final Fantasy 7, 9 and 10
Goldeneye: 007
Perfect Dark
StarCraft
WWF Wrestlemania 2000
Age of Empires
Medal of Honor games
Gran Turismo series
Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2
Grand Theft Auto games

I only play Halo 2 online anymore... I haven't been huge on games since the end of the Playstation/N64 days. Since PS2 and XBox came out, I'm only big on a handful of games.

Isn't Gran Turismos PS2 only? I used to play that some.

Which console are the Zelda games is that Gamecube?

Yeah, Zelda is all on Nintendo and Gran Turismo is all for Sony. You should really check out the Gran Turismo games, the graphics on that manage to utilize the maximum abilities of the PS2 and it quite frankly looks better than any XBox game I've ever seen. Plus it's got 600 eff'n cars.

I have GT but since I got xbox I really don't play PS2 much anymore. I used to play the Sega GT racing game (I think that was the name) on xbox but since I have only played Project Gotham Racing 2 and now Burnout 3 which is really a lot of fun if you like arcade style games.

I haven't played Burnout 3 yet, but I've been meaning to. Haven't been out to Hollywood Video in a while.

Forza is coming out on the XBOX very soon. Graphically, it beats Gran Turismo 4 hands down. Forza also has damage on the cars during races.

I haven't played this, so I have no idea how gameplay holds up. But, I have seen side by side comparisons from the same track of Forza and GT4, and there's no question which one looks better.

That video doesn't really say a whole lot. GT4 is still an excellent looking game, and the limits of the Microsoft system will keep it from being able to leave GT4 in the dust.

Forza has yet to be released... And to still have GT4 looking better than most other XBox games out there on a weaker system says something. Aside from that, we all know that graphics don't make a game. The genius of GT4 was in the fact that the physics of the game forced complete adherence to all the rules of racing, and as far as I have read, the physics of Forza still have a touch of arcade feel to them whereas GT4 has none.

Burnout 3 and Gran Turismo are kinda like really repetitive to me. I mean you basically do the same thing over and over and over again... just in different cars.


I most play first person shooters for the xbox.
Brothers in Arms
Rainbow Six series
Medal Of Honor series


None of that Halo junk either. I'm not in to that "i'll kill you with my laser or blow you up with my plasma grenade" stuff. Not me.

Man, it's all about the online experience. Halo is probably going to be recognized as the best party game of this decade.

I wasn't saying it was better than GT4 or putting GT4 down. All I said were graphics are clearly better in Forza. I have no idea how it plays. I do like the idea of damage to the cars. Still, I'm not a big sim racer and have never played GT for more than 10 minutes.

Is anybody here gonna get the PSP? I would if I could come up with the money.

I ordered one. Wasn't going to, but the deal was $221 shipped to my door. Figured what the hell. Should be here early next week. Looks like it's being shipped today.

I could care less about movies on the thing. MP3s and pictures are ok but I doubt I'll use that too much. The games look sweet. The screen is awesome. It raises the bar on heldhelds and brings them to near PS2 capabilities. Should be plenty of future gadget add-ons.

I also love the fact it has internet support out of the box. A few of the games also have it. You can play with folks across the country on Twisted Metal right now through WiFi.

I dunno... I think having damage in GT4 would kind of defeat the point. The way that game goes, if you make any contact that would be that noticable in real life, chances are you've lost the race anyhow.

Tiger Woods 2005 on XBox live. I'm addicted. You'd be amazed at all the Vols (dressed in orange and white with custom logos) that play online. Luckily, there's no "copyright problems" with ONLINE shirt designs!

I play Rainbow Six and Splinter Cell sometimes. Splinter Cell is fun, although very difficult, but that's just because I have to get weened off of Metal Gear Solid games.

Rainbow Six is very difficult as well, but very cool when you get into it. I've heard good things about Ghost Recon, too.
