Need Help Making Christmas List

[Jglaubman]

I have like $100 - $130 left for getting Christmas gifts for myself. What should I get? What would you get? (Preferably video game related)

[JoshuaB81285]

Which console are we talking about, or are you a PC gamer?

[Jglaubman]

360 and Wii (but not really). 360!

[hawkofva]

What do you like?

I don't want to recommend something like EndWar to find out you hate Clancy games.

[JoshuaB81285]

If you're into First Person Shooters...Left 4 Dead is amazingly fun. Campaigns aren't too incredibly long (and you can only play 2 of them in multi-player Versus); but the fun you have in Versus, especially playing as Zombies, is phenomenal.

Third-person shooters, Gears Of War 2 is pretty awesome. Horde mode is a blast online. I've heard good things about Dead Space too, but I haven't had the chance to play it.

[Jglaubman]

I am pretty much open to everything... But it doesn't have to be a game.

I also have a DS

Prince of Persia OR Mirror's Edge AND Fable II

Since it's cheap enough on the arcade, do yourself some justice and buy Psychonauts (that is if you haven't already). Yes, it was released almost two years ago. That doesn't make it any less amazing.

You're telling his guy to get an Arcade, which you're going to need a hard drive for to play Psychonauts on. Should've mentioned getting a 20 gig hard drive on the side.

OP
If you're interested in getting the 360, I would suggest getting either Dead Space, Gears 1&2, or Left 4 Dead. All great games.

i was gonna say wii fit, my buddy got gears 2 he loves it.

[TheDean]

Gears 2 is amazingly fun, especially horde mode. Get this for sure. Mirror's Edge also seemed really good, judging from the demo. I'd look into that but not before Gears.

It should work fine without buying another hard drive, but if worse comes to worse, get a hard copy for the regular Xbox. Either way, the point is get it, haha.

Gears 2 is amazing! Except for online. Online sucks.

It doesn't come with one.....and you NEED one to play an original.

I'm pretty sure he has a 360, and the other guy was telling him to pick up Psychonauts, which is available on the Xbox Live Marketplace (which he called the "Arcade").

And I think you misinterpreted the other guy who thought you were telling the OP to get an Xbox 360 Arcade system.


Or hell, I misinterpreted you both.

[Hungryfreak]

Oh, I see. Geemiee's right, we're both misinterpreting what were saying. I was suggesting to buy it off the live arcade (which should be doable on most Xbox 360s).

[HazzyRap]

For the love of all things holy, get Fallout 3. Get me? GET IT. O_O

Dude, I'm being totally serial...
