GTA is a fun game. unfortunately its unnesecarily violent.
Battlefront is also pretty awesome. I like it how your teammates can bring you back to life

What????

atari2600a's website wrote: GameBoy Pocket

My father gave this to me on my 7th birthday. The first few years, I didn't use it much at all, because I had a Super GameBoy (a peripheral for the Super Nintendo that allowed you to play GameBoy games). Once I got Pokemon Red though (Ironically, at the same time Pokemon Yellow came out), I've put probobly hundreds of hours into it! Now, It remains in a box in the attic.

Double whattt??????

Anyways, back on topic. Fable is a really cool game. All I play nowadays is Halo 2 on live, and I don't even play that much. I know it's overrated and all, but I still enjoy it more than any other game for the box. Oh yeah, Halo 1 multiplayer over Kaid is awesome too.

I'm confused...what does my Gameboy Pocket have to do w/ anything?

I would like to say that I normally find FPS games about as fun as watching paint dry, but I really like HALO. It's the little touches like the aliens screeching "we're all going to die!" and the cutscenes that don't disrupt gameplay.

Morrowind is a good deep RPG, if you can get used to the controls.

Mechassault is pretty good, (just picked up for under $5 shipped from ebay), but does have a few too many escort or timed missions

The Sega GT 2002/ Jet Set Radio Future game is probably nearly free in gaming stores, and a good way to spend $2

I think an original xbox is a good investment for your gaming dollar right now. I'm probably going to pick up a couple more of them off of ebay to modchip and run XBMC on all of the televisions in the house.

Yes, In my opinion i would say Morrowind is better than Fable.

i have it for the pc, not that good but probably will buy it for this one, i heard from other people its a lot better on here to. and What the hell does atari2600a's gameboy pocket have to do with this.

Also, i was just talking about how i am getting halo and halo 2 for the XB and my mom said i "couldnt buy them because the kids might see them and play them" (i have 3 siblings all under the age of 11). do you think i care? No. Will i still buy the games? Yes.

Kid 1: "Wow, he blew his head off & came back to life!"
Kid 2: "Let's try it in real life!"
Kid 3: "Yeah!"

...Seriously though, what harm would be done by playing Halo!? Hearing ghastly & obscure words like "Damn"?

yeah, thats what I wanna know. They play Starwars episode 3 for the PS2 all the time and today I was playing it and I think something yelled YOU poop egress at me. sounded like it at least.
and why exactly was this game rated M anyway?

Well if you play XBL you'll hear tons more words way worse than that.

And the GBP reference to your site has been bugging me since I saw it, thought I'd just sneak it in there.

...I'm still confused. Why is it bugging you?

You mean you could play Pokemon on GBP? I thought it was only for color.
I never owned a pocket.
