I was very sketchy on Assassins Creed at first because I did not think I could get hooked on it. When I played it for the first time, I played for a consistent 5-6 hours at a time, when available. The storyline was fantastic because it drew me in and made me want to play more. Becoming an assassin was a fun task. I enjoyed the free roam feature because you weren't forced into another mission after you completed the one before. Although this is an older game for the 360, I would consider it to be one of the games that the 360 is best known for. Graphics are insane! I would highly consider playing this one before the 2nd creed
What's great about it: Unique story, original from any other game
What's not so great: Moves and kill tactics are very monotone and occur the same way everytime
I would recommend this to a friend!

I received ODST about a day after it came out. Disappointed in the purchase and not worth its full retail price. The campaign was alright, sub-par effort i would say on the games part. The ODST soldier was pretty cool, but died easily. Realistic? Yes. Annoying, yes as well considering every step you take, a bullet follows nearby killing you. Its just Halo 3's characteristics put into another game alike Halo. If you are a die-hard Halo follower and want to know the story behind it, I would say buy it when it goes down in price. Other buyers, do the same. Full Xbox360 game price is not worth this title
What's great about it: New Weapons, Gameplay and storyline
What's not so great: Storyline also a little confusing, multiplayer maps?

I was severely disappointed in this game. Although the graphics and customization were pretty sweet, I found that it was difficult to use the autosculpt feature and it just clutters the game. If you like just racing other cars, I'd suggest this, but this is not a suggested buy. Cops are annoying and almost unstoppable as the game progresses. Racing isnt much of a challenge so the fun factor ends quickly
What's great about it: Nice cars, great graphics and free roam.
What's not so great: Bad storyline, difficult to get attached to
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Call of Duty created another huge hit! Continuing from the prior modern warfare, its time to step in the shoes of another ranger and protect the world which we called ours from the danger of terrorism. Step into the slums and even claim back DC in campaign defeating hundreds of terrorists attempting to destroy all mankind. If your not envisioning campaign, pair up with another friend or by yourself and be entertained by single missions challenging the players ability to fight. Then, ofcourse the greatest characterstic of the game, Multiplayer. Hours of fun awaits you when you buy Modern Warfare 2.
What's great about it: Multiplayer, Action filled campaign, SPEC-OPS!
What's not so great: Campaign a tad on the short side

Assassins Creed series has yet to disappoint me in any way shape or form. The first game of the series set up the sequel in such a great way. Graphics are tremendous, and gameplay is incredible. Patience is needed a little bit to begin the game, but its only because its needed to set up the storyline and give the player a sense of whats happening. This is a game that every person should play! You will not be disappointed with your purchase as it holds hours upon hours of gameplay including a free roam feature which expands the game further. This game I would consider to be up there with Modern Warfare 2
What's great about it: Graphics, Weaponry, Storyline, Connection from the first, Upgradeable armor/weapons
What's not so great: Kills are too easy
