Doom 3 Collector's Edition

$90.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it is a long game when ever i don't feel like playing anymore i save the game so next time i won't have to start all back over.
from www.amazon.com
a lot of the times while i was playing the game, it seemed as if i was play quake 2 or half-life but not doom.
from www.amazon.com
4 xbox live play (not campaign) is not that great, actually kind of sucks and limits the repeat playing that halo has after you finish the campaign.
from www.amazon.com
if you are not playing this game in the complete dark, with surround sound, you are missing 80% of the game.
from www.amazon.com
i really did believe the hype that this game was going to be the scariest thing i have experienced in video game playing, but i was wrong.

from rcaminos, www.shopping.com
i will be playing it over an over again which is why i gave it 5 stars.
from www.amazon.com
if you actually tried playing it stealthily (as you should) it makes the tension that much higher and the game more difficult.
from www.amazon.com
the graphics are great, the way the game is set up allows for different ways of playing it.
from www.amazon.com
the multiplayer portion of this game is so good it'll have you playing for hours on end.
from www.amazon.com
it is sam fisher's life you are playing and, just like your own life, you can experience it however you want to with the understanding of the consequences involved with the actions you take.

$22.00 Est. at Amazon

from shopping.yahoo.com
....it was my first time playing a role playing game and after this i might try another one!!!...my review sucks!!..but it was a good game to play
from shopping.yahoo.com
when i first started playing it i thought it was nothing special, the beginning of the game is a little dull, but once you land on taris it completely turns around.
from www.amazon.com
this game will keep you playing for hours on end, make you think your way through battles, and at times frustrate you to no end, but keeps you hammering away at it until you figure out the next move.
from www.amazon.com
playing this game was the greatest star wars experience i have had scince i was a five year old watching empire strikes back when it was first released.
from www.amazon.com
it's technically a rpg following the d20 pen-and-paper star wars role playing game rules and system presented by wizards of the coast, which closely follows the new dnd rules.

Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30

$26.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i can easily beat the game on authentic, so it's not that difficult; it gets easier when you learn things from playing paintball and airsoft.
from www.amazon.com
this problem occured about 6 or 7 times when playing through the game and it only lasts a few seconds....so it's no biggy either.
from www.amazon.com
i would be playing an x-box live game and suddely a black screen would pop up saying "the disc is scratched or dirty" but i knew it wasn't since i had just gotten it that day.
from www.amazon.com
in order to truly appreciate the deep storyline, i recommend playing bia road to hill 30 first, as it will make the story a little bit easier to understand.
from www.amazon.com
i'm a huge fan of wwii shooters, and never thought medal of honor: frontline could be topped -- until i started playing this game.

Soul Calibur II

$19.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
this game is prety normal game length, but once all 1 player thing's are done, don't bother playing it anymore.
from www.amazon.com
having played soul calibur 2 in arcades and playing some of the home version (on both gc and xbox) i can say that this tradition continues.
from www.amazon.com
the characters move and breathe and flex so vividly that its hard to beleive you're playing a video game and not watching a movie.the gameplay is as good as ever.
from www.amazon.com
i am still playing it after beating weapons master mode (you can unlock over 200 weapons here), and arcade with every character (even the 3 special ones).
from www.amazon.com
don't start playing it if you have something else to do,beacuse before you know it the hours have passed away.

LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy

$40.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i truly have enjoyed playing this game, though it will become a bit repeative in battles, the only real challenging aspect is the character bonuses and the "story" you witness (from story mode)
from www.amazon.com
while it's true that this game is definitely geared towards younger audiences, i think any adult who is a star wars fan will still enjoy playing this.
from www.amazon.com

Fatal Frame 2

$44.00 Est. at Amazon

from darkzero.co.uk
still worth looking at though if you're a fan of the genre, but i would certainly recommend playing project zero first — though whether or not you will be willing to come to this after playing that
from www.amazon.com
i recently purchased this game and since i started playing it, it is hard to stop playing.
from www.amazon.com
i was shocked, i mean i was actually scared while playing this game.

maybe it's because im so used to playing halo, but i find trouble in moving around looking through the camera, which sucks when you are in battle or when you see a ghost and want to get some points

BioShock for Xbox

$40.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i have just started playing bioshock, (on easy) and so far it's an excellent game.
from www.amazon.com
-the game is pretty big but it is still an fps, not a role-playing game.
from www.amazon.com
i really couldn't put it down once i started playing, and the last game that had that same affect on me was gears of war.
from www.amazon.com
bioshock has an incredible story behind it, so playing this game is like interacting with an thriller/action movie with a great twist.
from www.amazon.com
i haven't finished playing the game so you don't have to worry about any spoilers but this game is different than most of the fps games out there but it is definitely worth picking up.

playing the game is simple to learn.
