    Yeah, the last boss battle left a lot to be desired, kinda like the strange endings to the Halo games. GOW2 was an important transition into the storyline of GOW3, but it had its moments, like riding those Brumaks. That was intensely fun.

    I thought Halo 3 had a good ending...

    GOW1's final boss battle left a lot to be desired too. I never played GOW1 for the bosses. The storyline and the beauty of the game was enough to play it through multiple times.

    SHORYUKEN!

    I woke up at 3am waited in line for about an hour and a half and made out with a 60GB 360 with 4 free games! I've been throwing down on Gears of War 1 for the last couple of nights. That game is awesome! I love the whole 3rd person perspective with the cover system the game has. The cover system is very similar to Uncharted. Once I start playing those kind of games I'm hooked!

    Tons of great shooters on 360. Even the old ones that are now $10 or less are still great games.

    Prey is one of the first that comes to my mind. $7 at GS. Get it.

    Yup. Prey, Quake 4, The Orange Box (MUST BUY) has Half life 1 and 2 and Portal, and the ever awesome Team Fortress.

    BTW about Gears 2. I found a nice choke point on the Horde where I've managed to get to wave 30 all by myself. I think its called Pavillion where theres a small area in the middle of a game where theres a tunnel that leads to a small clearing. In here is a Boomer shield. If you back up through the entrance and place the shield BACKWARDS towards the entrance (so other enemies wont kick it over). Smaller drones and wretches can get through sometimes, but all Boomers and Beast Riders just get stuck behind it for easy pickings. Plus you can line the walls with grenades for easy kills as people try to squeeze through the choke. Just make sure you reset the shield each time so it does'nt dissapear on the reset. The only reason I stopped at 30 is that I got tired.

    I haven't turned my Xbox on in two months. I'd like to get this game. I still enjoy the first one. It sounds like all of you liked it. I haven't heard any bad reviews.

    Are you saying the ORIGINAL Half Life is part of The Box? I know HL 2 and the expansions are on there, but I didn't pick it up because I had HL2 already and never played the first...

    This would make me pick up The Box...

    Nope, sorry. Half Life 2 (with EPISODES 1 and 2). Portal and Team Fortress take the cake, IMO.

    Just finished Gears 2 earlier. What a game. Definitely one of the best of the year.

    I'd get the Orange Box, but I only want it for Portal, and am just waiting for the price to fall. That game is just creativity in a disc.

    I picked this up last week. I finished it on casual last night. I must be the worlds worst at online multiplayer.

    slickdonkey7 on xbox live if anyone wants to game sometime. I'm not online much, but when I get on, I usually play for a few hours.

    I wish people still played Ghost Recon.
