Finally got some money, so it's time to buy some new games. I'm getting COD4 for sure, but then I need help choosing a second game.

I just sold Uncharted, and am selling RFoM. Getting kinda bored with the mainly FPS games, but what else is there? I was considering Dark Sector, but there is a thread that said it's probably a rental. My second choice was Oblivion, but I had it for my 360. I would start a new guy with hopes of being great, but get bored a few hours into it because of the storyline and such.

Pretty much suggestions would be appreciated. Would be nice if it wasn't M, since my mom is a pain about that stuff. Not too crazy about driving, as long as it's not Nascar or anything. Something I'm kinda wanting is a nice, decently long storyline.

Any ideas?

Assassin's Creed seems to be popular.

Ninja Gaiden is an excellent game.

You could always pick up a Madden or NCAA game as well, they're always good, if you're into football.

One of my friends actually recommended Ninja Gaiden. Does it have an actual story behind it though?

I didn't like Madden 08 for my 360 :/ And then I already had Assassin's Creed and traded it in lol.

Thanks though :P

Skate is an awsome game. Not really a storyline to it. But so fun to play. My girlfriend is playing Folklore. Thats a story for you. I'm not really into rpg's though.

I love RPG's but a guy at Gamestop told me you play through some missions as a male character, then go back through them as a female character. Sounds extremelly repetative.

As for Skate and GH, I had both on my 360 lol.

ohh Condemned 2 that comes out in a couple downloaded the demo seemed cool

Nevertell · #11 03-27-2008, 10:15 PM

True you have to play both characters. (In Folklore) But the story is from two different points of view. From what I can tell, the best way to play it would be to alternate characters each level. That way you can capture more meaning from the storyline. Or just play all of one at a time. Either way I don't think it would be very repetitve. I haven't really watched her play much though.

If you can manage to pick up an M game get Condemned 2.

Its nice and scary.

fld777 · #13 03-28-2008, 03:24 AM

how about Devil May Cry 4 , Virtual Fighter ?

Triple6ix · #14 03-28-2008, 03:34 PM

To answer your question from way back, no, Ninja Gaiden doesn't have a good story. It's not bad, but it's basically just a cookie-cutter Ninja vengeance story with some magic and ghosts and a decent twist ending. But it's one of those games that doesn't focus on the story so you don't notice it.

tehXdrk · #15 03-28-2008, 04:40 PM

I downloaded the Condemned 2 demo, but haven't played it yet.

@ Triple's last - Yeah, that's what I figured lol.
