ooh! I finally downloaded the demo for L4D2 last night and wow! i think this might be my next purchase... but ive got 3 games on the way from amazon already...
Sacred 2 - needed a diablo 2 type game...tried Deathspank but no...(by the way Torchlight on the pc is pretty good)
Frontlines: fuel of war - still trying to find a decent multiplayer shooter (well im sure there are many, but im kinda crusty and can't find one i like) and heard its similar to the original battlefield 1942 ...sort of.... i dont like MW2 or battlefield bad company 2.... too...hectic and too many snipers... or even Halo 3....:(
Resident Evil 5 - no particular reason just thought id see what its like.
I've tried:
Fallout 3 - completed it (quickly) on the pc - and though the graphics look better on my xbox i just can't get back into it - theres too much rpg elements and takes far too long to kill something...too much conversation!
Perfect Dark Zero - i got the collectors package, which was pretty nice but the game is just to basic, guns seem to be continuously reloading which is annoying as it takes way to much ammo to bring anyone down...
Alan Wake - not bad, but just not got the patience for it....(obviously i know its not a FPS type game)
Halo ODST, sold it - completed the solo campaign on easy and couldnt be bothered to do it again at a harder level. not enough variety in locations and annoying enemies. Just couldnt get into the multiplayer - everyone seems to take a whole magazine to kill and yet most people take me down in one shot.... but that might reflect my poor skills rather than the game lol.
however when i downloaded L4D2 demo i couldnt stop playing untill the end! the guns work well and was quite happy blowing away hordes of zombies with an uzi or battering them with a frying pan :) woo!
shoulda tried it a long time ago, cos half-life 2 and the 2 episodes are still my fav's. Is the L4D2 multiplayer just co-op?
anyway any recommendations you can make would be apreciated :)
