I dunno if you've noticed but there seems to be alot of FPS games on their way to the Xbox, the problem is which one to get. With 5 6 top FPS games on their way to the Xbox I do not know where i'm gonna get the time, here are the 6 I had in mind :
1) The Chronicles Of Riddick
2) Doom 3
3) Half-Life 2
4) Far Cry Instincts
5) Call Of Duty
6) Halo 2
All of these are the same genre of game but they all have completely different Storylines...
Riddick is a prequel to Pitch Black, the main character is Riddick, a bad-ass criminal who has been sent to Butchered Bay. Butchered Bay is a very highly secured prison and no one has ever escaped, by Riddick (being the person he is) attempts to escape from the prison and has an action packed adventure while doing so.
Doom 3 is supposed to be like an action packed Resi Evil game, it will support Live and have some of the most realistic graphics. I dont know anything about the storyline but just by lookin at the screenshots you can safely say that Doom 3 will be a chilling horror game with beautiful graphics.
Half-Life 2 looks like it'll be a massive hit and will most definately sell millions (and millions!) of copies as it is one of the top most anticipated games of the year. Again, I dont know nothing about the storyline but I can expect to see great graphics, ugly looking monsters and good characters. Lets hope it doesn't get delayed!
Far Cry Instincts will (hopefully) be similar to the PC version because that looked awesome, I never played it but the graphics, atmostphere and characters looked great!
I know that on the PC version Jack Carver gets told to set around the Pacific with a lady but his ship gets attacked and he ends up stranded on an island full of heavy armed Mercs and it is his job to find and rescue the Woman from the them.
Call Of Duty is one of the best PC War games ever, it beats MOH AA even!
The Xbox one will (obviously) involve you being a soldier who goes out on all of these missions etc. but it will have Live play this time, making it the first WW2 Live game (I think). If its similar to the PC one then i'll definately be getting it, even if its the same as the PC one i'd get it.
Halo 2 looks awesome, i'm sure (I hope) it'll be the best game out of the 6 because there is so much hype going around lately that it would be dissapointing if it turned out completely poop...but that vey unlikely. I've watched the E3 movie many times and everytime I watch it I just cant wait any longer for November 11th!
Whooo!

Does look pretty good actually. Let's just hope there's a story in there, rather than having to trudge through a bunch of samey levels based on different time zones.

I meant it should change the pish-poor single player and actually have some foundation and relevance to it.
Timesplitters was only any good for Multiplayer, and in my opinion, that lost it's charm pretty quick anyway.

i've never played any Time Splitters game, but how will TS3 change anything? TS has no hype compared to Halo 2, Half-Life 2, Doom 3

Timesplitters 3 should change all that. Hopefully.

Iy'd be good online though, it'd be what I wanted Unreal Championship to be - with customisation up to the eyeballs.

Finally, somebody mentions the behemoth that is Half-Life 2.
Timesplitters 2 is the single worst excuse for a single player experience I think I have had since the original Blade on the PSONE, even that had more going for it with the remote off chance of a slight story.
I am a bit fan of FPS games but Timesplitters 2 is a complete joke, regardless of how much people enjoy the multi-player I find it impossible to find anything positive to say about the single player.

Looks like I was wrong. But so were you.
