Funny, I prefer playing it on a console. I have both the PC and PS3 version, and I like the PS3 version more. Why? Because I like using my wireless controller on my sofa in front of my large TV over sitting in front of a computer moniter. (I DO have a wireless kb and mouse set up on my PS3, but it's just not practical when sitting on a sofa!!!). I've put about 270 hours into Oblivion on my console, so there is more than enough stuff to do in the game without the mods if you're just looking for a fun experience.
You mean, with a mod to change the monter-levelling system! Actually, I do agree. Mods are awesome! In the end, myself and many others (judging by game sales) find that the benefits of playing on a TV from your sofa outway the benefits of tinkering around with mods for hours on end in front of a moniter.
Oh, I'm just trying to say that they both have their merits! I'm arguing against the idea that one version is the "far, far better" version, when that's not necessarily the case when all things are considered. I've probably put around 100 hours in on the PC version of Oblivion, and almost triple that on the PS3 (which is the same, basically, as the 360 version; the PS3 version having slightly better graphics, but the 360 having more downloadables).
I prefer the PS3 myself, mostly because it's region-free and I don't feel like having my console dying on me. That's besides the point, though! I have put in quite a few hours on the 360 at various friends' houses. The absolute best game, IMO, is Oblivion. If you like FPS games, I'd go with The Orange Box or Rainbow 6: Las Vegas. Call of Duty 3 was pretty good, but I haven't played 4 and I'm not interested in it at all. Halo 3, IMO, is just an over-marketed game that's average at best but has great graphics (I have played through it). I definitely recommend the other games I mentioned over Halo 3.
, Rock Band is amazingly fun! So is Guitar Hero 2 and 3, but Rock Band has more stuff.
Nope, just good! I found it too repetitive and there were also too many glitches in it to call it "great", IMO.
I'm trying to play through it right now. It is fun... but I honestly can't get more than an hour into it at a time. Nearly EVERY mission is basically this: 1. receive your mission from the name base, 2. collect clues about the guy you're supposed to assassinate, 3. assassinate him, 4. rinse and repeat. Don't get me wrong, this IS fun... but it's the same thing over and over. I'm basically just doing a mission or two every week, because there just isn't enough variety to hold my interest.
I hope you bought them online or at least shopped around! Stores tend to substantially mark-up the prices of HD cables because they're an easy sell to those who don't know better.
I see it has been said before, but can never be said enough--
You can play it on the 360, though, and I wasn't sure if he had a regular Xbox before.
