Call of Duty 4

Oh and all the Orange Box games are great. Portal is really, really great--worth the price of the box for that game alone.

Are any of you feeling really inundated with way too many games this season? I have a severe backlog that I can't ever see completing. Portal, ****MASS EFFECT***, Assassins Creed, COD4, Crysis...! I wish some of them were just crappy, to lighten up my gaming schedule, but they're all amazing, can't-miss titles. I never had time to finish Bioshock...in fact, I don't think I had time to play more than a couple hours into any of the games I bought the last couple years. But I'm addicted..! Developers, can you make more bland, derivative, crap games that will wean me away from gaming? I need my sleep. If you reintroduce an updated X-Wing or Tie Fighter sim (or brought back real flight sims in general)...I'm going to kill myself.

I cant play shooters on console. Me and a gamepad just dont mesh well when it comes to needing quick reflexes. Hell, you should see me with Guitar Hero.... I look like a Les Claypool having a seizure. I simply suck. Make it a drivng game like Forza or DiRT though, and damn, somehow my reflexes define perfection.

I am doomed to Quake Wars: Enemy Territory on PC for now. I am a mouse-shooter gamer only.

ABSOLUTELY 100% TRUE. Portal is one of the most inventive games I have played in a while...and there seems to be hope that Valve with integrate the Portal gun into HL:2 or HL:3. HL:2 EP2's ending REALLY pissed me off...but I guess that is what they intended. Overall, awesome fighting the Stiders and I love that yellow Mad Max mobile they give you. GOOD stuff.

I want badly to play Crysis, but I am going to wait until the summer (I will build a new PC with SLI)

100% with you Wormy. FPS games DO NOT belong on the console. I have NO IDEA how kids get used to it. My little brother can do it, inverts up and down and strafes and pwns. I can't do it. I'm still addicted to Counter Strike Source's Gun Game Mod. Turbo Gun Game with Deathmatch mod turned on is simply addicting. I love it. Gun Game is the best CS mod ever...

Right now I am in the middle of ICO on PS2 and I just finished Shadow of the Collossus. Both games are great. I prefer to wait a while and let prices come down for console games....

My wife just bought me a 360 for an early Christmas gift, so I am just catching up. I picked up COD2 for cheap and just finished it, my son and I enjoyed it. Not sure when I will pickup COD4 but I am sure we will. Sounds like Orange Box was good, I've been thinking of picking that up as well.

Already have lots of new games for under the tree for the kids, can't list here as he might see it!

Along with the 360 I got a 56" full 1080p TV, the XBox HDDVD and a new sound system - so am really enjoying the upgrade from the old 27" TV and Xbox. The game graphics are just amazing, but honestly the TV does such a great job of upsizing the old DVDs to 1080 that the different is noticeable but not by much compared to HDDVD.

I've been wondering about that upconverting business. Good to know it looks good...

I was wondering why some people were so... soooo much better than others (and me) at RFOM and COD4 online and then I heard that some kids have this (there is another brand also), and then I tried one. It makes you a hero, and the single player game too easy. It can be used with all ps3 fpshooter games. I refuse to buy it for myself.

That's pretty cool. I really don't understand why a keyboard and mouse can't just be plugged into a modern console system and programmed and used the same as on a PC.

The Xbox controller is one of the main reasons I never bought one. That controller absolutely sucks....
