I need help finding a game that's going to keep my interest... Brian Send a noteboard - 26/01/2010 07:18:53 PM
Over the last couple of years I've really struggled with finding games to keep me wanting to play them. So...since there are people here who play waaay more games than I do, I figured I will simply make a quick little list of the games I've played over the last several years that have held my attention, and the ones that have lost me quickly, and then ask for suggestions.

Games I've played and that have held my attention long enough to finish them:
Turok for the 360
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
Star Wars: TFU
Bioshock
KOTOR 1 and 2
Soul Caliber IV

Games that have lost me very quickly:
RE5 (Seriously that one got like 45 minutes of play, I hated it)
Ninja Gaiden 2
Infinite Undiscovery
GTA IV
Fable (I barely gave this a chance, so maybe I should give Fable II a shot?)
The Orange Box
Metroid Prime 2: Corruption
Elder Scrolls: Oblivion (I don't feel like I gave this one enough of a chance, and I think I may try it again)
Punch Out (Wii)

And if this helps any...favorite games ever:
Metal Gear Solid (PS1)
FFVII
FFVI
Soul Caliber
Tekken IV

I'm going to be getting Tekken V soon, and probably the new Final Fantasy when that comes out as well. So with all that said and all those games listed...does anyone have any suggestions for me? I have no PS3 yet, so if we can limit this to 360 games that would rock.

I'm not really looking for anything specific in a game right now...I mean, I would love to find something that recaptures the magic of FFVII and FFVI for me, because they were just amazing games to me. It doesn't have to be an RPG though, or an FPS, or any specific genre...I just want something good that will actually hold my attention.

If you like Final Fantasy, you might want to try Lost Oddessy. *NM* - 26/01/2010 10:48:49 PM 262 Views
Misplaced reply, dude. *NM* - 26/01/2010 10:49:39 PM 220 Views
Yeah, I was pretty pissed off - 27/01/2010 04:32:28 AM 427 Views
Mass Effect 2, Gears of War 2, Fallout 3, Dragon Age: Origins. *NM* - 27/01/2010 04:02:53 AM 223 Views
Should I play Mass Effect 1 first? - 27/01/2010 04:34:20 AM 468 Views
Your first game saves can be continued in ME2, so yeah, I think I'd recommend that. - 27/01/2010 06:55:56 AM 461 Views
Plus, ME1 is a great game in and of itself. *NM* - 27/01/2010 07:17:22 AM 231 Views
A recommendation for new players (something I just found out) - 27/01/2010 04:12:48 PM 481 Views
Yes, but be careful. - 27/01/2010 02:25:39 PM 437 Views
Playing ME on easy is a terrible idea! - 28/01/2010 11:24:30 PM 480 Views
To each his own, I suppose. - 28/01/2010 11:59:33 PM 480 Views
Hm... - 27/01/2010 04:35:27 AM 501 Views
Infinite Undiscovery is one of those games that really...challenges me - 27/01/2010 04:52:17 AM 491 Views
In that case... - 27/01/2010 09:26:12 PM 490 Views
The combat on Star Ocean is far superior to IU. - 28/01/2010 02:12:01 AM 557 Views
