Never played live? Shame really since just about every aspect of RS3 can be played online, including the missions.

Offline you've really only got about 20-25% of the game.

If it lacks Live then it'll be behind Doom3 and Halo 2 for me.

I've got three must-buys on my list for March:

James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing
Champions of Norrath
Driv3r

Four if FFX-2 slips a couple of weeks.

Well, my Xbox version must have a fault, because the single player sucks.

And I meant MP2 as an Acture/Adventure thing, obviously.

Its to be hoped not, as a FPS its below any of the top competition. As an Action/Adventure game is where it excels.

Resident Evil 4 would get my money over Halo 2 anyday, but they are very different games.

Annnddd..

Half Life 2 > any FPS this year*


*Metroid Prime 2 will not count.

No way is it. The headset is a nice idea but utterly useless in terms of any real impact on gameplay, the levels 'feel' like a sandbox that you have been put in at one end and must struggle out the other, the AI is absoloutely appalling, the mission objectives the same - since when do you actually do anything except shoot idiotic terrorists? Normally FPS games do this with style and fun, but RS3 falls flat on it's face in that respect.

Never played Live, might be better, but despite looking/sounding nice, RS3 is devoid of any real atmosphere and fun because the levels are so pap.
