Since the xbox has been good to me for the past few years and so many good games are coming out, i think we just need a thread for it.
WARNING: if you're a ps2 fan, and despise xbox/microsoft and will post things like xbox sucks or ps2's better, do not post in here because all you would be doing is generating beef which is against forum gudelines and (i hope) admins and mods will take appropriate actions.

Anyway back on topic, what games are you playing at the moment.
I'm still doing halo2 alot, the new maps are awesome, and i like the upgrade alot, just when i got sick of it, they tweaked it to exactly how i liked it (halo 1 style). The new maps are awesome, and we should be expecting 4 more by the end of june. It's good to have wizard (warlock) back. And turf and sancuary are just top levels. It would be great to have chillout (from halo 1) again, and it's confirmed that no hang em high will come.

Some great games are coming out. Splinter cell Chaos theory is even better than the last 2. The graphics are AWESOME. Ubisoft always reveloutionise the consoles ability to perform. I haven't clocked it yet since i've been busy busy busy, but i'm on the last mission. Ubisoft has also announced Prince of persia 3 and and Splinter cell 4 to be released.

Prince of persia 2 i haven't played in a long while, but i loved the game. I fucked up majorly and had to start over, and now i just can't be bothered.

I'm getting a few games tomorrow night, Jade Empire which i'm looking forward to, Forza racing (microsofts reply to gt4), Psyconauts which i have no idea what it is, area 51 which i've heard is good, as well as pariah, brother in arms, mx vs atv and Super monkey ball deluxe. Ah... the beauties of a chipped xbox.

WHo's played forza? is it any good?

I cant wait till my free copy of Jade Empire arrives mmmmmm...

Right now Im playing through Mech Assault 2.

Hey Salar, can you tell me exactly how you tweaked Halo 2? I found the MP lacking balance on H2. Basically Id run get the shot gun and kill anything that moves. Halo 1 was a lot better MP, but maybe if you tell me how to tweak it....

i got the update. Download the update and install it.If your xbox is chipped then you'll have to download it off the net, if not download it off xbox live.
If your xbox is chipped, then i'll come on later on tonight and i'll send the update to you. If you've got live, then jsut download it. Follow the intstructions on the readme file, which is replace the xbe file and insert something else in another folder.

The update is awesome because it's stopped shotties from dominating per se but still it depends on the skill level, if your good with the battle rifle, you'll have a hand up in shottie if you see them coming.
Some updates:
The battle rifle is much more powerful (sort of like pistol in halo 1)
The grenades are much more powerful (like halo 1)
whacking is much more powerful (like halo 1) and it also contests dual welding much better.


If you don't know whether or not you have an update when you start up the game, before you log in as a character, it should have 1.1 on the bottm right hand side.
