With Halo, Project Gotham Racing and Grabbed by the Gholies.
It's a bloody chunky thing isn't it.
I haven't got LIVE yet but I might not, I'm not entirely sure this is a good purchase. I've played all 3 games a bit but I keep going back to Second Sight on the Gamecube.
As a Gamecube owner I do miss a really good First Person shooter, and as great as Timesplitters is the idea of owning Halo was something I couldn't resist. I also miss out on realistic racing games as a Gamecube owner.
The sad thing is, now I've played 2 games that are the top of their genre I now feel slightly empty.
For starters Project Gotham is a good racing title but I've never really been able to enjoy these sort of games.
Grabbed by the Gholies is as crap as I remember.
I played Halo for a bit but I've come to realise that this is just another FPS. And one that doesn't have the depth of Perfect Dark either. It is the finest all round FPS of this generation but it doesn't do anything special at all. In fact at times I felt the urge to play Metroid Prime, something I haven't done in an age.
Anyway enough about the criticism, I'm sure I'll get into all of the above games and I'm sure I'll enjoy Blinx, The Suffering, Jet Set Radio: Future and whatever else my mate plans to lend me.
The console has 3 weeks to impress or it goes back. Mainly because of my 30 day no quibble return policy.

If you like footie then you'd better get yourself a Live kit and wait for Pro Evo 4 as it's gonna rock on the X-Box.
There are not currently any games on the X-Box that scream 'buy me' 'buy me' except Ninja Gaiden, but thats only if you like that kind of game. Wait till next year when plenty of top quality games will be gracing the X-Box with some top notch Live play...

Good point :-) thanks! how much is all the wireless stuff i'd need?
Don't drill holes or run cables through carpets - go wireless! \o/
Get Burnout 3 and Chronicles of Riddick.
Oh and don't play Blinx, it sucks ass.

I don't have Live, I might get it. With me, I'd have to have the cable running from the PC up the wall to my room (meaning drilling holes in the ceiling) and going under a load of carpet upstairs and drilling a hole in my wall like. Just sounds like a bit of hassle. Plus getting live, £40 is a great deal, but they don't mention that you need to spend like another £100 or so on other stuff to make it all work. Read the small print, eh? Can't be spending that money too near christmas.
