I'm not really bothered about this title as I've got it on PC but I'm guessing a few of you hvae had it on pre-order for a couple of months/weeks now?

It's only alright, nothing special. The physics and stuff are good, but it's not even remotely challenging - of course, that's only if it's identical to the PC version, which I hear it is. I don't think the change from mouse/keyboard to joypad is too much to get excited about.

Doesn't even come with CS!

I'm a bit miffed that they're not including a co-op option.

"Valve has not added in a co-op mode."

as I'd like to play this with my brother over sys link or on L!VE at least.

There isn't co-op on PC. I've got a feeling a lot of people will be upset with this game - it's not as good as the hype makes it out to be.

I know, that's why I'm miffed, I thought they'd add something to try and make people buy it again even though they had it for the PC. I'll not be getting it anyway.

If they'd release CSS on Xbox/360, I'd buy it indefinitely.

CSX was great.

I was really disappointed by Farcry on Xbox - the graphics aren't as good as I thought they would be. Luckily the gameplay is pretty good so far, but still.

For me, its been released too close to the 360. With no online co-op present, its hard to find a reason to buy this when we'll be playing next gen games in a few weeks.

Half-Life 2 is easily the best FPS of this generation, and probably most of the next as well.

I strongly recommend not overlooking it because the next-gen console is almost here, don't do another Bad Fur Day.

Considering how well it was received on the Xbox I wouldn't be surprised.
