I'm heading to Gamestop this weekend to pick up a couple of games. 1 of the games is going to be brand new, and the other is going to be in the 15 dollar range. So I just want your help to help me decide what to get. I'm pretty much into every game genre.

I'm thinking of getting W@W for my new game and possibly The Orange Box for my cheap game. What do you guys think?

Opinions would be appreciated.

Sounds like good choices, since you already have CoD 4. I saw Orange Box on sale recently and almost picked it up myself. I almost don't feel like a true gamer because I haven't played it yet. :\

Good choices, although I own a PS3 not an 360. I did pick up both games and was very impressed by the both of them. Go ahead and get em.

Bad OMG! Bad!

The Orange Box is still in my top 3 games for the 360. (CoD4 and Mass Effect are the other two)

Orange Box is good. Great even. But don't forget that the Sonic Collection game comes out next week on the 10th. OLD SCHOOL GOODNESS!!! But as a FPT goes OB is the way to go.

I think your choices are pretty good.

Wow. I was expecting everyone to give me different opinions. Cool then. I'll get W@W and possibly The Orange Box.

Yeah they're good choices. Especially The Orange Box. I've not completed it but it's really fun and original.

I tried W@W at a friend's house and didn't like it. I am totally addicted to COD4 though so I really wanted it to be good. The weapons on W@W are a step back IMO and the multiplayer maps have so much debris everywhere that they don't run as smooth as the ones in COD4. I got stuck all the time. That's just my two cents and now you have a different opinion too. :tongue:

I'd get Fallout if I were you. And for a cheap choice I'd pick Rainbow Six Vegas 2. So you still get a decent shooter. :thumbsup:

I would get L4D but all my friends on my FL have stopped playing it. And I don't like playing co-op games with random people. Plus, it seems like one of those games where everyone is playing at a time, then they just stop and only play it once in a blue moon.

And The Dutch Don, I already have Fallout 3 and am loving it.

^ Which means I would've made a solid recommendation! :grin:

I don't know much about World at War, but the Orange Box is definitely a good choice, especially if you've never played any of the half-life 2 games. A few other games that you may want to consider are Dead Space for your new game and either Bioshock or Mass Effect for your cheap game.
