Stay away from the xbox 360.Get a Ps3
on March 3, 2012
Posted by: MarvelMan
from Bradenton,FL
Microsoft hides free items behind a yearly surcharge fee that you can get for free with your PC and Ps3.They have ruined the dash by trying to integrate Kinect and the new windows 8 phone look and made it AD infested and confusing.Why are there ads when you have a paid subscription fee???When you don't have ads on Ps3 and there is no subscription fee??High Def is sub par at best.Sound quality is sub par.Steer clear of the xbox 360 systems all together.Go get a Ps3
What's great about it: you got me???
What's not so great: The xbox systems have progressively gotten worse over time
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

SynopsisThe ground shakes with rumbles from an explosion down the street. You hear disembodied shouts from your teammates. Bullets whiz by your helmet and explode on the wall behind you, sending chunks of concrete and rubble flying through the air. You're focused on your mission, but time seems to stop for a moment as you feel your weapon in your hand. Another bullet bursts against the wall, this time closer — and louder. That got your attention. There's no time for zoning out in the red zone. Meet back up with your team and make it off the Battlefield alive.Featuring the powerful Frostbite 2 engine, Battlefield 3 utilizes every ounce of power to provide the most immersive shooter experience you've ever known. Get ready to hold your ground on the front lines of a global conflict, and keep your finger on the trigger as the missions take you from city streets in New York and Paris to the relentless desert sands of Tehran. Take on the enemy by yourself in single player, or team up with a friend for intense co-op missions. Featuring the all-new Battlelog system, you can track every hard-earned kill and achievement. When your skills are battle-tested, load up for a 24-player online multiplayer mode, where you'll bring the fight right to your enemy in 20 battle-ready vehicles. Strap on your boots and fall in, Soldier. You're being deployed to the Battlefield.

The world's population is consumed with panic and loss. Natural disasters have swept the globe, pushing society to the edge of extinction. Now, the aliens have returned to complete their genocidal goal of annihilating mankind in a deluge of fire and pain. Neither the local law enforcement nor the US military machine have been able to put down the alien threat and it seems like you've been chosen to do what they can't. Don the Nanosuit 2 and arm yourself with an arsenal of technologically advanced weapons to decimate the invading hordes before humanity goes up in flames. Can you survive this Crysis?Planet Earth is in ruins and now the aliens have returned to hit humanity where it hurts — New York City. In Crysis 2, you will be outfitted with the combat-enhancing Nanosuit 2, allowing you to absorb devastating blows and delve into a flood of creatures not from this world. Resurrect the world as you once knew it by battling the invaders that infest the Big Apple. As a super soldier, you must rage across the urban landscape of New York City to handle this Crysis before it's too late.

The Graphics in this game are amazing.The Landscape which to run around in is huge.I just finished playing the single player and I want to play it again.The suit you get makes you feel real powerful and its a ton of fun to put on armor mode and kick some butt.You get a lot of really cool weapons as well.One of my favorite shooters to play.This is a game that you can replay several times..well worth it.
What's great about it: Graphics are just insane.
What's not so great: Sometimes the AI..can get confused

Nothing new here just a repackaged MW game

Saw the trailer for this.Was not impressed at all.At one point they actually copied a building falling down that was in a battlefield 3 trailer that came out a month before their trailer.It's sad that they have to copy from Battlefield 3.They can't come up with an original idea themselves.This franchise has gone way down hill.Spend your money elsewhere.
What's great about it: Nothing anymore..its just sad
What's not so great: Everything..nothing original

SynopsisYou've received your assignment, hustled into a helicopter and skillfully maneuvered into the murky abyss of a mysterious land — with one deadly mission on your mind. You slip and sneak through dangerous territory. You spot an enemy in the distance and raise your rifle as you aim with precision. With a nearly silent pop, he drops lifelessly from view, as you press on, planting explosives to carve your way through secured fortresses, removing classified information and leaving only a trail of smoke in your wake. Welcome to a new kind of war. Tomorrow, the government will deny that your operation ever occurred. Your location will be obscured. Your alibi will be written. The war will be erased from history. But today, you bask in the glory of a perfect kill.Call of Duty: Black Ops is the latest installment in the Call of Duty franchise and the follow-up to last year's blockbuster Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The Cold War has ended — or at least, it appears that it has. You are one of the few to know the secrets of the deadly conflicts that persist and to complete the classified operations that quietly protect the nation. You are Black Ops. Descend into the explosive combat with all-new force and all-new technologies to destroy the enemy, including new Killstreaks like Napalm Strikes, a remote-controlled explosive device and controllable helicopters. A deadlier mission than ever requires the most intensive Combat Training yet — hone your tactics offline against A.I. bots in both Free-For-All and Team Deathmatch modes and earn COD Points to purchase equipment, attachments, perks and new customization options. Further test your nerves and weapon skills in point-gambling Wager Matches, and celebrate each epic kill in Theater Mode. You are being summoned — do you have the courage to answer a grave new Call of Duty?

From its fluid and intuitive combat system to its gripping story line, Bayonetta is one action thriller that won't disappoint.In addition to the weaponry on her hands and feet, Bayonetta also has gruesome devices in her arsenal, such as the Iron Maiden and Guillotine. Charge her Magic gauge to send enemies packing. Even her hair is designed for devastation, serving as a magical conduit to summon demonic beasts for aid in battle. And, with the ability to transform into panthers, bats and other forms, she's prepared to handle any situation.

Spec ops is beast!
By tosh0 from MN
Played spec ops at COD XP this year and I forsee this to be countless hours of fun with a buddy or by yourself. Also make sure to buy the hardened edition as you will get a free year of COD Elite where you basically get all of the maps and new spec ops missions for free.
