Finally Went And Replaced My Broken Xbox...Advice?

[Gail Simone]

I haven't had my xbox for about a year or so (my call sign is Crazy Inez, by the way).

I played it a little last night and i have to say, I still much prefer it to my ps3 and Wii. The wii just feels too last generation, and I don't care much for the controller, and the PS3 remains an unfriendly, unintuitive box that mainly gets used for the blu-ray stuff (which I don't care about that much either).

But the 360 is more fun, more natural, and a pleasure to use, in my opinion.

My question to you is...what has come out recently, in the last year or so, that is 360 exclusive that you would recommend? What's fun that's recent on xbox live? Has anything been added to Live that you use regularly? Are there features I should know about?

And lastly, what have you been playing the most on your 360 recently?

THANKS!

"Soulcalibur 4
Lego Batman"

I did buy both of those for the PS3. I kinda wish I'd waited and got them for the 360 even though I hear Yoda kind of sucks.

I think you'd love Mario Galaxy, Gail. And Wii Fit. I don't know--my girlfriend and I have a great time playing Wii together. I think it's very couple-friendly.

Yoda does indeed suck.

It's been all but confirmed that Vader is going to be made available as DLC for the 360 and the same with Yoda on the PS3, so you will be able to find out for yourself.

I like the games okay...I just feel that it's not what I want in a game machine, and Nintendo only seems to score with their handhelds for the last few systems they've come out with.

I'd like Yoda. He's a bitch to play against since he's tiny but as a player character he wasn't so bad.

Get gears of war ands halo 3. I hear too human and force unleashed are good and I plan on getting em. I also plan on getting spider-man web of shadows and fable 2 when they come.

Look forward to playing with you Gail.

also get the arcade sonic games they're fun and I hear braid is very good if pricey.

Also get Rock Band it's a fun addictive game and worth the price and space.

Mass Effect is pretty fun.
