I prefer it that way in Ghost Recon. Its not as action packed, but the tactical element is amazing.

Yes pretty good. Its more or less exactly the same as single player or split screen. The good thing is that it has bots, so team games can be full with 1 player on one side the other player on the other side. I think the only thing wrong with Halo is no bots, as 2 player games are pretty boring. In Halo we normally just play Blood Gulch and mess around with grenades and vehicles, or have a serious sniper game.

XBox demo or PC demo? If its the PC demo then the XBox version is actually better than this demo. I played the PC demo yesterday and compared to the XBox version it is rubbish. The level was smaller and at a different time of the day. Its really easy to control and if your use to playing FPSs you should be able to play this easily.

Moto GP I think is off the list already. We want games with Strategy, Team games, ones which you can have a laugh against each other.

I'll mention Ghost Recon, I liked the demo but my friends probably won't like seiousness of it. Its not as immediate as other FPSers.

For the moment though, Halo is holing up brilliently. Team CTF Pro is a firm favourite. My mates are getting quite good at Halo now so it requires a full team effort to win and come up with strategies.

Ghost Recon. Co-op single player over link up is amazing. Also team games where you have to kill loads of people on a map. I have played it split screen and it is very fun the 3 hours went flying by. Also you can play it on XBox Live with up to 6 people in Co-op single player mode, or 16 players in deathmatch and other team games. Currently Ghost Recon is my favourite XBox game currently, and probably my favourite game on any system currently. I probably rank it 2nd after Halo in my all time chart (see previous post :)).
