Xbox 360 essential games!

My top XBOX360 games:

FALLOUT 3

FALLOUT 3

There is no game I enjoyed more in the past. I loved the atmosphere, the free gameplay and the radio programs. If you don´t know fallout 1 & 2, you´ll absolutely love this game, I guess. The "Fallout veterans" here at the forum don´t like Fallout 3, because they expected something different..no idea. I have no sympathy for bashing a high quality game (in each way) like this!

Additional to that, I implore you: Get Mass Effect 1 & 2 (the first you´ll get very cheap).

We who do not like Fallout 3 base our dislike on some very cogent points. I won't go into them because it always turns into a giant rant but I will say that "high quality" is not a term I would use to describe a game that launched with enough critical errors to rival Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines.

Game of the Year for xbox 360: Shadow Complex

It's a xbox live download and doesn't cost much, but easily the best xbox exclusive of 2009.

Critical errors. Logical wise or technically?

I know, on PS3 the game was technically bad, but on 360 and PC it´s pretty good.

It´s all about entertainment. I enjoy a game like a nice book, and for me personally Fallout 3 was awesome to play through.

I bought two expansions last weekend and played them through. I can highly recommend Point Lookout for some redneck shooting!

Yeah, I want to buy the "game of the year" edition, there are so much add ons released, you need years to finish it. It´s an epic!

Operational errors, in that the game would crash at some fairly innocuous moments.

Damn, Vampire Bloodlines is such a wonderful game. Too bad that the controls/gameplay sucked and there was so many serious bugs. This game is placed on first on my list that games that should have a remake.

On XBOX360? I´m not sure, if I understand it correctly? Do we talk about the content or technical issues? You said "crash".

I played all the way thru on 360 and it never crashed once

I only have the PC version so I can't speak to the console versions (pretty sure they had a few bugs, but that could just be hearsay I picked up). By "crash" I mean the game would freeze and I would have to reboot my computer. I actually managed to lock myself out of the game by saving just before detonating the megaton bomb and having the game crash basically just after, so whenever I tried to load the game it would just crash and I had to start all over again, which I did not do until a couple of versions later.

Yeah it's a pretty awesome game, the community have done a good job of patching it but there's still some glitches in there.

 

[muckypup1]

The 360 version of Fallout 3 didn't have many bugs at all, it was very rare that it would crash or fuck up.

 

[Bekanor]

The PS3 version was pretty buggy, they probably optimised for 360 and just shoved it onto the other platforms.


That being said, for the exorbitant amounts of money they charge for new games these days, anything beyond a simple glitch is unacceptable, let alone "my game is screwed because I saved seconds before a critical error I didn't see coming".

^i can't believe that more games don't have a revert style checkpoint system like Oblivion.... which makes me wonder, does Fallout3 really not have that ? They were made by the same studio...
