Halo 3

[Landlord]

Halo 3 is a good game, but not even remotely close to the best ever.

what's your favorite?

It depends on the person really. Some will say the games of old like Donkey Kong, Pacman, Mario, etc.

I really couldn't tell you the best of all time. I love the Halo series, but I also love, Mario series, Zelda series (especially the original), Black, Perfect Dark, 007 Goldeneye (and all that series after), Gears of War, Ninja Gaiden, TMNT 2 The Arcade game....

Well in terms of FPS there are a ton of games I would prefer. Halo 3, as with the two before it, have had extremely boring single player campaigns, in my mind. The multiplayer is a lot of fun, but I think Call of Duty 4's (just one example) multiplayer goes far beyond what Halo 3 accomplishes in terms of fun factor, although there is a lot more depth to Halo online matches.

That's one game I still haven't tried yet...but need to. I've only played CoD 3 awhile back but don't remember much of it. But the Modern Warfare trailer looked kick a$$.

I swear I typed this earlier...but maybe someone deleted it.

Anyway, bought CoD4 last week. Sweet a$$ game. Definitely one of my favorite FPS now. I loved playing the Death From Above mission and shooting enemies on the ground from a plane. Seemed very realistic.

Only qualm I have is the game was really short. I beat it in less than a week on normal mode, and that's not even playing everyday. But I guess that's how games are nowadays. I just hate to pay 60 bucks and for a game to be that short.

Now, Ninja Gaiden...that's one of my favorite games. It kicked a$$ and seemed to play forever.

this game's full potential is realized in the online play...can you get a 48-hour trail membership?

possibly. I'd have to get a network cable and hook it up to my router before that. Since we moved, my 360 isn't near the router anymore.

time for wireless, dood.

 

[Landlord]

wireless and gaming don't mix.

 

[bennychico11]

does the Xbox require it's own wireless adapater to be used with it?

I have an older wireless Linksys router sitting around that I could probably turn into an adapter/access point

I believe the wireless adapter costs $100...but yes, if I know my technology terms correnctly, mine is hardwired, it goes: wall -- cable -- router -- xbox 360. I havne't really had a need to the wireless adapter because they all sit in the same entertainment set, but I would imagine the wireless would boot you more often.

If you have a wireless router, just plug the 360 into one of the ports on it.

I bought the adaptor for $40 I believe, and then the router for around $50 (it was a cheaper one)
