"Thinking about purchasing an Xbox........."

Got my 21st birthday coming up and was thinking about buying meself a Bill Box. Just looking for game recommendations really, so far the list of games i'll probably get is as follows

Halo
Jet Set Radio Future
Shenmue 2
Serious Sam
Project Gotham
Max Payne
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
MGS Substance
Silent Hill 2
Project Zero (maybe)
Buffy (maybe)
Halo 2
Fable (maybe)
PGR 2
Rainbow Six 2 (or whatever it's called)
Jedi Knight 3
Knights of the old Republic (maybe)

I'm mainly intrested in shooty games and looking at the release lists there's a fair amount of them. Oh and Rare games.

I'm not intrested in fighting games, I'm getting Soul Calibur 2 for Cube and I think that's all i'll be needing. I'll be getting all the multi console releases for my Cube so none of them please, I'm not intrested in 2nd rate platformers, so the first person to recommend Blinx get's a slap. Oh and I haven't got the slightest intrest in those boring Mech games.

Oh and I don't want Morrowind or any other games like that, boring is an understatement.

So anyway, recommend away.

Panzer Dragoon Orta

I've played the first level, seems good.

Not sure about that, i've heard great things but then i saw a video of it and it looks like the kinda game that would make me want to put my fist through my TV.

Serious Sam 3 is on the GC..

Yeah but not for a while and it's only £15 from Play.com

You've covered most of the games I'd recommend, but for future releases the ones that spring to mind for me are:

Deus Ex 2
Ninja Gaiden
Dino Crisis 3
Otogi
Mafia
BC
Quake IV
Midtown Madness 3

All of them are only on Xbox to my knowledge.

*awaits huge post from either Alastair or Savatt accompanied by a long lists of games and mucho overuse of the phrase 'pick up'*

Hohum :D

and the underuse of the word put down

Morrowind Boring LoL ha that is a "Funny-Statement"

Is it too much to ask nicely?
