    Question Can't Decide Need Help

    I'm thinking of buying a new game for my Xbox sometime in the next few weeks. The problem is I can't decide between Metal Arms, Unreal II, Crimson Skies, or Sims Bustin Out. I want to know what are the best qualities about each of these games.

    I'll just say that Unreal II sucks the rest i don't know much about.

    Great graphics but crappy story.

    I mainly want a game that has kick a$$ multiplayer with vehicles or something that is going to be funny like Armed and Dangerous.

    I really enjoyed and still am enjoying Crimson Skies. The multiplayer is top notch. Nothing beat diving your plane though cavens and blowing the living $hit out of your friend. The single player is fun to. Gives you tons of missions. The controls are top notch and the grapics are above par as well! If you don't buy this game you have to give it a rent!!!

    The problem is that if i rent a game i always beat it within five days thats y i like demos because they give u a taste of the gameplay and not the whole meal.

    If you have Live and only want something for multiplayer, then I'd take Rainbow Six 3 over all of them...If you don't have Live, I'd say it's a toss-up between Crimson and Metal Arms.

    I would go with Crimson Skies. While Rainbow Six 3 is very cool on Live, I prefer sixteen person dog fights in C.S. on Live over the gun fighting in RS3. Besides, C.S. has some really funny parts in the single player mode.

    My main problem with CS is the constant Lag I get. I rarely get it with RS3, while with CS, I constantly get it.

    Really? I've yet to hit any lag times. I guess it depends on when you're playing it on Live. Usually I'm on at like 2:00am or later.

    Lag usually isn't a problem with the game....its the connections. Huh...I think I am going to peep out Rainbow 6 3....it better not be anything like ghost recon!

    No, RS3 is nothing like GR. Also, CS has lag built into it, so you wouldn't really notice it. You'll just wind up dead 10 seconds after someone shot you, and none of your bullets between those 10 seconds will have counted.

    As for your question...I thought I had answered it. CS if you are going for multiplayer...Metal Arms if you are going for Single player. I haven't played Metal Arm's multiplayer if it has one, so I wouldn't know about that anyway.

    Man Servo, I did answer your freakin' question!!!

    I told you to get Crimson Skies. I told you that it had a funny and interesting story mode and I told you it has freakin' awsome multiplay funtions whether you're on Live or system linking (remember the part about the sixteen person dog fights).

    So go out and buy the game already!
