In Condemned, you're also limited to the ammo that is already in the gun, assuming you've found one. After you're done unloading the lead, that's it. The gun is useless.

now i remember the commercials for this game, definantly looked....interesting.

cover position?

This is from IGN:

And positioning is really what Vegas is all about, thanks to an excellent new cover system. By holding down the Left Trigger, you will switch to a third-person view and duck behind cover, be it a slot machine, an Axe Body Spray sign or a bombed out Dodge Durango (product placement, you see.) While in cover, you can still aim and safely blind-fire. Among the greatest moves in the game is placing your reticule on an enemy face, popping out from cover for a split second, firing a single, brain-splattering round, and sliding back into cover. By pushing up on the stick, you can pop out above cover. By hitting left or right, you can pop out to the side. The system is, quite simply, the best use of cover in any shooter, more intuitive and smoother than even Gears of War. From a doorway, you can pop out, check that the room is clear, and then actually bend all the way around the wall -- you have 360 degrees of movement. By letting go of the left-trigger, you swing right back into first person.
Going back and playing other FPSs just isn't the same anymore. When I duck behind a corner, I don't want to stare at a poorly-textured wall before strafing out into the open. I want to peak around the corner, line up a shot, and shoot things. The only downside to the cover system is that Ubisoft found your squad to get a little crowded at times, so the fourth member of Team Rainbow was removed to make room.

Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, Guitar Hero 3, and Rock Band. Skate's pretty sweet, and I loved playing Crackdown. One of the only games I ever really completed. Just very fun to play.

OF COURSE you must get Grand Theft Auto in April I hope... XBL Multiplayer...mmm.

Everything mentioned already. I honestly rank H3 lower than most other FPS. While other FPS have pushed or moved the genre some way, H3 was content rehashing its shit, and riding Bungie's own coat tails. Plus the online community for H3 is ****ing terrible. Either frat boys, or 13 year olds. Good luck telling the difference.

Saints Row. Fun as hell game, can be had for cheap. The Darkness is fun, but short.

Devil May Cry 4.

a lot of people didnt want halo to change, just be better graphically.

I know, but the game really didn't even improve graphically. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate the game, and definitely rank it up high, just not as high as CoD4, GoW, etc.

God of War was decent but not that great, too short of a single player game and the online play never really caught on for me.

EA sport games are always pretty good, since I play soccer(football) I get Fifa 08.

COD4 is probably the best online game to play. Awesome graphics and gameplay is solid.

Halo 3 is good but i hate that its unrealistic as far as damage goes. I mean a whole clip with the standard rifle. I like the COD4, 3-5shots and you're dead!

Rock Band and Guitar Hero are solid and fun but not everyone will enjoy them.

Forza is a good GT-like game for the Xbox. Need for Speed is a fun game for driving not being too serious like Forza can get.

I liked Steel Hounds ( i think thats the name....haven't played it for a bit) but its a Mech game and the online stuff is kind of fun.

For some reason I really Fusion Frenzy, its a great multiplayer game for being stupid, drunk, including girls, and such.

But I think I am going to get a PS3 since they have a larger variety of games.

I'm Beta testing Battlefield Bad Company right now. that games going to be pretty kick a$$ when it comes out. it has a fully destructible environment. nothing like sending a tank round through the whole side of a building were someone is hiding.
