:shock: Sorry ant, i spent a brief time with you and the lads "enjoying" this mulitplayer "fun" and i have to say that the game is muck. Multiplayer is average and the only thing that could possibly bring it beyond average is the level editor.
Compare it to Call of Duty 4 and then tell me its a good game
hahahaha! compare an old port of a port to one of the best fps games to be released this year. wonder what the outcome will be there? lol

Thanks for all the recommendations guys. Don't think I 'll be able to afford a live subscription for a while yet though.
PS - if you do contract vampirism in Oblivion, you can buy a hideout on live which gives you an instant cure! vampirism nearly killed that game for me :(
what is the hideout called? don't need to splash out too many points, do i? :?
For those not in the know, you can buy Vile Lair, from Live marketplace which gives you acccess to a hideout called Deepscorn Hollow. Inside, among other things, is a fountain of restoration which, along with purgeblood salts (I think that's what they are called) mined from a vein on the chamber wall will cure vampirism. The whole process won;t take any longer than 5 minutes.

Another for the 'Oblivion was meh' crew. I'm not saying it's a bad game, i just got zero enjoyment playing it.

Here's a list of classics:

Call of Duty 4
Mass Effect
Lego Star Wars-The Complete Saga
Flatout-Ultimate Carnage
Rainbow 6 Vegas
The Orange Box
Bioshock (not to everyone's tastes though)
Condemned
Earth Defence Force
Guitar Hero 2+3

Great choices there mate, nice broad selection which will keep you going for a while, especially Oblivion and Dead Rising!

If and when you get Live, I'd advise you to stock up on credits and buy farenheit (unless you can find it second hand for cheaper). Fabulous game which is a great choice for MS to add into the originals series on Live.

Are you talking about Farenheit the adventure game that was on the ps2 and xbox? I already have it on the ps2. It was great until the end, which seemed like such a cop out.

i loved farenheit on the xbox, i've been meaning to pickup a secondhand copy for a while. i don't like how they have set up xbox originals - that seems like a cop out

I played it through again recently, still great but the descent into weirdness felt just as silly second time round, a real shame as it has some very solid ideas and good gameplay. The stealth level's bleeding awful though.

that was an exciting few hours, although my copy of the darkness is scratched so I'll have to take it back (I bought everything second hand). Anyway, I got one month of live free so if anyone wants to play my tag is salparadise86
