... when you could walk into the Xbox section of Blockbuster and have a hard time deciding on which awesome game you wanted to rent this week.

Now I go there and see NOTHING I want to rent. It really is depressing.

Yeah... Life's a -blam!-, and then you die.

Deal with it.

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

Go check your noose thread if it get's too depressing. Or stick to good old Halo until Halo 2 arrives.

I've played it so much that I can draw out every detail, every TREE, from memory.

I couldn't agree more. And where I live, there are ridiculously few options, unless you want to drive a half hour or more. Wal Mart and Blockbuster pretty much round it out game wise here. Wal Mart sucks so badly, you go there looking for anything that has released in the past couple of weeks and it most likely isn't there. It's a pisser.

That's exactly it - I don't SEE any other shooters. I haven't found anything I've wanted to get.

When you compare most shooters to Halo, they aren't too good. Riddick's about the only one worth noting, and I bet you've played it already.

Yo Halo53, I'm real happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best bungie.net profiles of all time. OF ALL TIME!

RS3:BA or ESPN NFL 2K5. Both awesome games, I recommend either.

They didn't have a copy of black arrow, and all the aforementioned I've played already.

Edit: I hate football games.

If you havent already played Full Spectrum Warrior or Ninja Gaiden, rent those. Riddick is pretty good too, from what Ive heard.

But yeah, there has been a lack of good games recently. This November should change all of that, and hopefully some other good games will be coming out this fall/winter besides Halo2

Edit: By the way, R63 is pretty worthless without Live

Timesplitters 2 is fun if you like fast paced shooters. It's not as fast as Quake or Unreal, but it's pretty fast. What sport games do you play?

Yeah. This one topic I agree with Obbi on. Football games suck.

None. I detest, with every fiber of my being, sport games.

Once again, I agree. I never understood football games. Go. Play. Real. Football.

I dont like 'em much either

And exactly; why play a VIDEO game of a sport/game you can go play in REAL LIFE?!

Granted, I'm no NFL player when it comes to football, but I can still play it. When I play video games, I like to do things that I CAN'T do in real life (without serious repercussions). Like kill things.

I think I might go buy a book instead.

It's a sad day in the world of videogames when a teenager would rather read, much less buy, a book over playing a video game.

Sports should be left to, well, sports. I don't see why you have to play sports on a video game when you can just play them in real life.
Video games are for stuff you DON'T do in real life, like kill an alien with a plasma sword.

I respect your opinions not liking football games but...

Someone could just as easily say "I don't understand shooters. Go join the army"

You can get hurt? Well you can playing football too. I like shooters too but I also like football games. Just making a point that although your opinion is fine, your reasoning isn't that good.
