Talking new to forums /buying 360 soon
hello,

I'm new to these forums and will be purchasing an xbox360 in the coming weeks. I'm very interested in GRAW. Has anyone been playing this game. I'm
curious as to how it plays online. Also will probably get Gears of war when it is released cause it just looks to awsome to pass up. Are there any other must have games that are available now that would interst me. I'm mostly into action/ adventure type games, but also enjoy a good RPG if its not to
japanese(manga/anima ).

GRAW is mad fun. I play for hours everynight. It's currently the #1 360 title played on xbox live. The singleplayer is very short...but fun. It's all about the multi anyway. Sometimes waiting for a game to launch can get annoying, but other than that it's kewl. They've also just released Chapter 2 with additional maps for download at the xbox live marketplace. Go for it man...just buy a used copy a Gamestop and you have 30 days to use it...if you don't like it bring it back for a full refund!!!

I personally like COD2 over GRAW online. Its a little more tactical and the people on there seem to be a lot more fun to play with. I dunno, maybe its just me. Ask around, I'm sure other people will tell you *cough*opinionated

I wouldnt call COD tactical but it definately is a lot more fun online.

Elfpack GRAW and COD2, are great games. I got Battlefield 2 about a week ago and I really enjoy it, I feel its somewhat better than GRAW online but GRAWs single player is better.

GRAW or BF2 are good online....
The great thing about BF2 is that you jump right into games...NO WAITING.

Couldn't decide got all 3. Can't play enough of them, kinda put me off from Oblivion and I hate that

You can't miss for online gaming getting either. It's just CoD2 offers more SP content, then GRAW then BF2. BF2 offline is ridiculous since it's so easy to play online, no need to waste time with bots.

Battlefield 2 is really fun online those it is graphical less than GRAW or COD 2. Anyone of those games are a great choice for a shooting game. Check out the Outfit as well, it a RTS shooting game, it's really addicting. I know the outfit isn't for some people but it's because they don't know how to play the game properly. It's all about strategy and controlling the right bases to get back-up. Check out the demo on the marketplace, will take you a few tries but once you get used to it, it fun.

Well welcom to the club, as for games I suggest GRAW I have had great fun with it. If you like stealth-ish games you might want to try the new Hitman.
But my main suggestion is go to best buy and get the twenty five dollar two month GameFly trial. That way you can try just about any damn games.
