View Full Version : What to buy next?

I have halo 2 and I am not real impressed, although it is a good game (Ghost
Recon I and Island Thunder are more my speed). I like NFL2k5 alot, but I
get tired of the poor sportsmanship (running up scores, relentless trick
plays, etc). What would you recommend that I buy next? I tend to like
shooters and sports. Call to duty? One of the new VN games? Ghost Recon 2?
What looks good?

Not to start a long thread about which is better, but Madden online limits
trick plays and somewhat limits stat whores.
There's always mechassault 2 in about a month..

Ghost Recon 2 and Burnout 3 are great games to play. Call of Duty sucks
major ass. Men of Valor is pretty good, but AI is stupid at times.

Knights of the Old Republic 2 out in about a week. The sequel to 2003's
game of the year looks good. It is being done by a different developer but
over all I think there won't be very many changes.

This promises to be a decent game that is said to be in "good hands". I
expect that it will probably be somewhat different without messing too much
with the formula. That approach seems reminiscent of what happened with the
Max Payne games - a good thing if you ask me.

How about Prince of Persia 2, the first one was very good.

Ohh man, I think I am gonna cream my pants. I didn't think
SW:KOTOR2 would be released till February. Upon checking
up on it, the release date is December 6th, and the PC
version will be released in February. I would definately
recommend picking up SW:KOTOR, and SW:KOTOR if it is even
half as good as the first!
