Reccommend me Xbox games Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

I just got an Xbox 2 weeks ago. I have only 2 games, Soulcalibur and Halo. Both are excellent, but I need to know about some other games.

I like First Person Shooter , role-playing, and puzzles. Can you reccommend any more xbox games to me?

What do you recommend for a Xbox party? I'm looking for fun multiplayer games. I don't want to play online. I was thinking of FIFA 2005. There's also Halo 2, of course. What else? Kung Fu Chaos?

NO! FIFA is an empty shell of a game with licenses and celebrity soundtracks.

Pro Evolution Soccer 4! This game is made for human vs. human competition but also has an incredibly difficult (for a regular gamer) AI.

Fusion Frenzy actually isn't a bad party game, I especially like the Sumo minigame. FIFA is good, along with most other sports games.

NHL 2K5, especially if you're Canadian.

If you're not into the formal hockey, there's a Party Mode as well with fun goof-off party games that are a blast.

Pond Hockey!

Yes, NHL 2K5 looks fun. Unfortunately, my friends are not the hockey type, they're more into soccer.

Tired of ads?

Naturally there is, as mentioned, Halo 2.

I would also recommend the Splinter Cell series - one of the greatest games out for any platform. It is not strictly speaking a FPS, but nevertheless I suggest you pick it up - one could probably find the original, used, for 10 bucks or so. Also similar, although not as slow/stealthy as Splinter Cell, is Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, excellent and far superior to the PS2 version.

There is also Ghost Recon 2, which I just picked up today. So far, I've no complaints against it.

For roleplaying, Morrowind is fairly inexpensive and an excellent game. Also out there is KOTOR, KOTOR2, Baldurs' Gate: Dark Alliance, and more.

KOTOR and KOTOR2. They are MUSTS for the Xbox.

The last soccer game I owned was World Cup for the NES. By that standard FIFA is quite all right.

That was great..........lobbing the keeper worked from a certain point every time and the penalty shoot-outs were classic.

Katamari Damacy is not available for Xbox. There wasn't even a release for PAL PS2 users.

The soon to be released Super Monkey Ball Deluxe would make a great party game for the Xbox.

General Xbox games I would recommend:

Jet Set Radio Future: a really fun platform game.

Metal Slug 3: brilliant arcade shooter

Panzer Dragoon Orta: a 3d old style shooter game

Otogi: Myth of Demons: nice looking adventure game

None of the Xbox RPGs impress me. Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance got boring real quick. I think Knights of the Old Republic is massively overated too. Get a Playstation if you want decent RPGs, or else stick with your PC.

Pro Evo 4 Before playing it a few days ago against four friends, I hadn't played a football game for years but had loads of fun with this game. Easy to pick up, but with subtle controls that are enjoyable to master.

Is that the game where your favorite hockey stars roam the world signing onto podunk teams, desperately seeking employment?

I tried Silent Hill, the third one irc. Didn't like it at all. Fatal frame is better imo.
