Review the games yourself and just to give other people a chance to know what its like...
Need For Speed Undercover - Having finshed Career and the achevments what i can (i dont have Xbox live yet).. I think it is a good game, the Story is good just would like it to be longer. Like doing some more races as well. As for game play and graphics, the graphics are good and smooth and what you expect from modern games.. but the little bits of when you see the scraches on the car and the effects of the glass breaking.. The gameplay is good just needs at times tweeking in when using the nitrious and dont just slow down straight away...
Overall 8/10
Good game could be a bit harder and a bit longer... And Very Easy Achevment points..

Farcry 2- Not good at all. Was waiting in about 5 lobbies to try and play a game on Xbox Live. Never got to play once. Was very bad. Sent it straight back to Tesco Rental.
Overall 3/10. And thats just for how the game looked, the grahpics were acceptable.

Allways best to know i think of the gamers and not the mags as the mags are often wrong plus the gamers let you know what turkeys are about..

Chronicles of Riddick- Assault on Dark Athena- 2 games in one. Original "Escape from Butcher Bay" has been remade into full HD. Very dark and moody, great voice acting (as well by Vin Diesel for a change). Great mand to hand combat. Similar gameplay to "The Darkness"
Tasks get alittle tiresome and you want some variation mid way-end of Butcher Bay but still the great atmosphere story telling/ acing carries it though.
*Will edit when completed with Dark Athena
So far 7/10
Good idea 606. Might get Undercover when its dirt cheap, Did like NFS but it went abit samey/shit after most wanted.
Farcry 2 is the only game I've refused to play after afew hours. Absolutely garbage main campaign, same missions all the way through.

Just after a good racing game to be honest after being very dissapointed with how shit GT5 Prologue was and the indication that GT5 will be no different. Same physics/ sounds/ tracks as GT1.

Shaun White Snowboarding Xbox 360- Another game i borrowed from Tesco Rental. It's not bad, at first however it's a bit confusing about what you have to do except board down the mountain over and over again. I think after playing it for a few hours it is very repetitive, not worth a buy.
Overall 5/10

Avatar: Legend of Aang Xbox 360- This game is a bit of a joke. Play it for two minutes and you've got 1000g ;D Worlds worst buy, but the worlds best rent.
Overall 2/10 (and thats just for the easy gamerscore)

Sonic Unleashed Xbox 360- Another rental from Tesco Rental. Not sure why i bothered, it was boring, childish and just not the same as the original. Played it for 15mins and i was bored. Another game to be sent straight back Overall 3/10

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Xbox 360- WOW. What a game! This was my first game on Xbox 360 in 1080p. Looked amazing! Controls are easy to learn, campaign mode is great, just a little short. Online is where this game really impresses me. Had it for two years now and i still love it each time i go on! Definitely one of the best games i've ever played.
Overall 10/10

Call of Duty: World at War Xbox 360- After playing Call of Duty 4 for a year, i was looking forward to this, and i wasn't disappointed. A very enjoyable game, although playing it it just doesn't have the same feel as Modern Warfare had. Zombie mode is great, the new map is better though as it's bigger and theres more to do. Multiplayer is the same setup as 4 with some good maps, although the weapons aren't as good.
Overall 8/10

And I don't care how good the cars look, not having damage this day in age is unforgivable. They say the "cops and robbers" feature online for Undercover is worth a bash so think you're missing out there mate.

I always used to enjoy Medal of Honour on the PC a few years ago, when Call of Duty 1 and 2 were out. Now Call of Duty has just got too good, and Medal of Honour wasn't able to keep up
