Recommendation Badly Needed!

k, i got 115 bucks to blow on stuff, might as well be xbox games (long story short, i'm building a new rig wit a budget of 4800ish CAD and thensome) any who here's wat i'm getting (note note note, reminder, note!!! i'm buying these secondhand/used games for like 20-40 bucks each) if anyone knows willow video in newton (surrey, bc) that's where i'm buying it from cheap as hell:


1) Driv3R (don't ask me why, it's like 6 bucks :o or was it 4?)
2) Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow (14 bucks)
3) Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay (15 bucks need i say more?)
4) Mafia (price unknown)

please please please list some good games for xbox so i can buy em tomorrow as that's the only day i'm going to willow (busy schedule ahead). those are the only 4 games i just thought of this moment (in like 4 seconds, cuz these are the games i saw on display that caugt my eye). list em guys! :01:

I trust Gamespot for Xbox reviews, usually on the money.

I don't like Driv3r at all really, but at 4 bucks as you say, you can't go wrong so what the hell :P

Riddick is very good.

Mafia for the Xbox is supposedly an average game, and nothing special like the PC version is.

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack?

Ninja Gaiden is great fun but hard.

Spiderman 2 is above average, and will keep you going for a day or so.

Prince of Persia is fun, but nearly the same as Ninja Gaiden.

anyone?

People rave about Rainbow Six Raven Shield and that new one (Black Arrow??) online if thats your thing.

Project Gotham Racing.

Burnout 2 I heard some good things about.

Psi Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy (third person shooter with Jedi Knight style telekinetic powers)

Beyond Good and Evil is supposed to be very enjoyable.

Panzer Dragoon Orta got a good review on Gamespot (one I'll download soon from the looks of things)

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic.

Crimson Skies is good, supposed to be ever better online (I've only played SP and 2 player splitscreen)

considering im in aussieland, half the games have different names in other countries...

my favourite game is V8 Supercars 2 (TOCA Race Driver 2 everywhere else)'

i also love Fight Night 2004.

seeing you have the GTA Double Pack...what more do you need :D :lol:

GTA:SA? :unsure:
