Anyone have a 360 in here? If so, what games do you have/recommend? I've got Fight Night Round 3 and Call of Duty 2, and I'll be getting more games soon (College Hoops 2k6 comes out March 13, and Morrowind comes out March 20, I believe).

Sure do! I got my system at the end of December or the very beginning of January. I own Madden 2006, NBA 2k6, DOA4, CALL of Duty 2, and Fight Night Round 3. Out of all of those games, I would say pick up NBA2k6. Of course, we are all basketball nuts, so that shouldn't be a shocker. Just seriously stay far away from NBA Live. The graphics are better on it, but the camera angles all blow, and the game play is atrocious.

I'm considering trading in FNR3 and and CoD2 to get NBA 2k6. That is, after I have another go-round in FNR3. That game is sick.

I heard that the sports games were rushed on xbox 360 like Madden, nba live, nba 2k6 and many features from the original xbox version are missing plus they are buggy. I'd just hold off until the fall to get the new version.

All the features from nba 2k6 for the xbox are on there for the 360. It is by far, the best basketball game ever made to date. Certainly next years game should be better, but trust me 2k6 is amazing. You are missing out if you think it is a poor game. However, if you already have it for the xbox you probably aren't missing to much.

I don't about the other games but I do know for a fact that Madden was rushed. It's still a good game though but it's missing some key features like the ability to challenge calls and shit like that.

This game (http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/ninetyninenights/index.html) looks fucking sweet. The amount of shit going on on the screen looks to be insane.

I got my 360 around Christmas, about a month after the launch. [smilie=banghead.gi: But it was well worth the wait. With all of it's capable of, no other gaming system ever created even comes close at this point.

I've got NBA 2K6, and I agree with NFZ that it's the best basketball game I've ever played. I also have Project Gotham Racing 3 and Madden 06. PGR is solid, especially the online play, and like most people said, Madden is kind of a bust. Madden was definitely rushed, the current gen versions are much better. I also dowloaded the FNR3 demo and it's unbelievable, I think I'll be picking that up pretty soon. I also downloaded the Full Auto and Need For Speed Most Wanted demos and was aa bit dissappointed with each. I like PGR much better than NFS and Full Auto gets a little repetetive.

The games on my watch list are Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and Burnout Revenge. Oblivion is supposed to be a super in depth open-ended RPG and Burnout is probably one of the most underrated franchises ever.

Oh yeah! I almost forgot! Bankshot Billiards 2 for the Xbox Live Arcade. [smilie=donthate.gi: Buy some Microsoft points and download it now. Big time fun factor!

I'm going to trade in CoD2 and NBA 2k6 for Oblivion on March 21 when it comes out. I am pumped about that game. I d/l'd the HD trailer for it, and it looks absolutely unbelievable.

NBA 2K6 is great for the 360.

Did anyone pick up College Hoops for it today?

I was thinking about it. But reviews are not good. It's sitting at a 70% right now on gamerankings.com. I'm gonna have to rent it first.

I don't really go by the rankings. People are disappointed because the game isn't totally different that the current gen version, but i didn't expect it to.

All I wanted was ramped up graphics and sound.

Also, IGN lost all credibility in their review within the first sentence when they mentioned how 2K Sports "got it right" with their World Series edition of their game. Well, reports were that all they really did was add updated rosters to that game!

I got College Hoops on Tuesday, and I'm having a blast. It has ramped-up graphics, the sound isn't really improved--but I'm playing as OSU and it's fun as hell.

Did you know the Xchange 360 device is coming out soon?

I'm gonna pre-order mine tomorrow from the Datel website.

What is the Xchange used for? I read a brief description, but I guess I don't really see the point... [smilie=anxious.gif]

It's an Action Replay device for the 360!

Basically, you can download rosters from your PC, transfer them to your 360 memory card via the Xchange 360 and then load them into your box.

It's absolutely KEY for the real rosters of college sports games.

Sounds pretty nice. I'm too lazy to look, so do you know exactly when it comes out?

I just played my first game of CH2K6 for the 360 and the game is good. I have to say, though, that the audio is vastly improved. The sounds are clearer, the sound effects are better, and they ramped up the crowd quite a bit.

I guess I should've mentioned that I hadn't played it on current gen. I just thought the sound could've been better--especially the one announcer, don't know his name.

Does anyone know how to play original Xbox games on the 360? I heard I have to download something to make it work. Have any of you done it? Hook a brotha up.
