Newby | Anybody else have this for XBox? And if you do, do you play XBox live with it? Leave me your gamertags if you do so I can play one of you :O! | February 8, 2004, 7:40 PM |

I am going to buy an XBox here soon, and am looking for a few good games to get with it. | February 9, 2004, 8:50 PM |
Newby | It kind of sucks offline, but if you have XBox live it owns all. It's so fun with teammates that are alive and mic communication + tactical shooter = the best. + it's not just missions. There's FFA and Team FFA type matches, called Survival and Team Survival. | February 9, 2004, 9:00 PM |

Hitmen | Plus counter-strike sucks. :) [edit] No wait, someone is going to put me down for not stating that it's an opinion. In my opinion counter-strike is the most overrated piece of garbage in existance. (Note: not the biggest piece of garbage, just the most overrated one for those of you who can't read.) | February 9, 2004, 11:18 PM |
j0k3r | Overrated? Hah only to those who don't play it. Every I know that plays it hates it, steam blows. I don't see how many more tactics you can have, flashbangs, smoke grenades, regular grenades, night vision, shields, sniping, choosing the appropriate skin for the map to blend in, shooting through walls, there's so much. | February 10, 2004, 1:33 AM |
Hitmen | I never said there was any lack of variety, it just doesn't come together well for me. It's too fast passed for a tactical shooter, too slow for an FPS. I just think it blows. | February 10, 2004, 3:58 AM |
Newby | It's way too fast for a tactical shooter. i.e Rainbow Series And way too slow to be something like Quake III. (That is really fast) It's inbetween. And people that are inbetween suck! :) + you can run and gun and it's just so unrealistic. If you try to run and gun, if they are more then 10 feet away from you, you most likely won't hit shit. + Rainbow Six 3 has tear gas, and that shit is trippy to walk through. :P | February 10, 2004, 4:17 AM |

Mitosis | My gamertag is MitosisDesigns. We can play CS. CS has some problems though. You can shoot a guy in the arm with the Snipermagnum and they are dead. So un-realistic. | February 14, 2004, 2:21 AM |

Shoot someone in the arm with a .50 cal sniper rifle and see if they can move any other part of their body. The shock would be way more than your body can handle. They assume you lie there and bleed to death? :P | February 14, 2004, 4:32 AM |
Mitosis | I know but its stupid. You just die instantly. Like say I shot you in the foot with the Sniper Magnum, and you died. Wouldnt you think thats a little dramatic? | February 14, 2004, 12:06 PM |

[/quote] I don't like the idea of steam, having to download stuff, but with a fast connection it's nice. I went to a new computer, downloaded steam (0.5 meg), logged onto my account, and selected to install CS. About half an hour later I could join games. It should just be optional because of the problems with slow links. | February 14, 2004, 3:13 PM |

And I like ghost recon better. In Raven Shield they make you do the plan beforehand, in Ghost Recon you get to order the other guys around during the mission. And the missions are generally on a much larger scale. So having better looking models doesn't really matter too me. [edit]I suck at typing[/edit] | February 14, 2004, 7:57 PM |

Point to an area on the screen and either PUSH A, hold A and select a command, or tell them a command through the microphone. | February 14, 2004, 8:04 PM |
Hitmen | Yea, but you can't go to the map view and plan and re-plan an assult anywhere on the map. More control==better! | February 14, 2004, 11:42 PM |
