How about Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway. Any good?

[Mr.Whippy]

Batman:Arkham Asylum is also excellent

+1, great game.

I also quite like Rainbow Six Vegas 2 on Live in co-op mode. Much better than getting your backside kicked in deathmatch type games.

Thats the problem I have with online play too... tried COD MW2 online over the weekend. I got 1 kill... and that's only thanks to a player spawning right next to me

You are stuffed until you learn how the maps are laid out.

I'd never bothered with online stuff for that reason, just got pwned by kids but I persevered for a few evenings with MW2 on Free-for-all and now have l33t s|<1llz.

I was a CoD2 addict, then CoD3 then CoD4... then we had a baby which meant less time to play which in turn meant 'I sucked' through lack of practise, it's not much fun losing heavily so I stopped playing online.

As an occasional gamer, I am feeling the need to dust off my XBox and have a play.

I'm not into XBox Live and prefer games such as Gears of War, Halo, Street Fighter etc.

I am a bit bored of the games I have so looking for suggestions from other players.

GTA IV
I've played it start to finish twice now, and multiplayer has a lot to keep you entertained. I've spent many a happy day playing in Liberty City
xbox 360 also gets the extra download content

Conker's Bad Fur Day for the Xbox.

Getting old now, but still the dogs - any game that includes a level where you have to feed sweetcorn to a giant singing turd called "Sloprano" has to be classed as genius.

yeah there are a lot of games I like the look of but realise that I do not have enough time to get the most out of the games so do not buy - generally why I stick to sports games which I can dip in and out of

if you like RPG's, I gave up after about 30 hours play as I realised my life was passing me by and I'd be better off doing something productive.

I spent a lot of time playing WoW the last time I was on the bench. I had to cancel my subs as soon as I got a job and go cold-turkey

[gingerjedi]

Batman:Arkham Asylum is also excellent

WHS^

The most polished game I've played.

Fallout 3 is good if you like RPG's, I gave up after about 30 hours play as I realised my life was passing me by and I'd be better off doing something productive.

Just remembered - get the Orange Box. Bit older, so less graphically awesome but Half Life is a great game.

[Jeebo72]

The splinter cell series. Awesome.
