Question What's the best war FPS for the XBOX ?

I'm trying to limit the number of games I buy, otherwise I'll end up the same as I did with the PS1 - loads of games never really completed any of them.
So I'm looking for the best war based first person shooter game for the XBOX to add to my small collection, I didn't get on with Splinter Cell (not really war), but keep seeing Conflict desert storm II cheap, or should I wait for Call of Duty to appear in November ?
Other possibles...
Counter strike.
one of the Ghost recon series
rainbow 6 3

I don't have broadband so won't be playing on-line.

Anyone with any thoughts ??

Halo and Halo 2.

Medal of Honour sucks. Can't imagine COD being much better, but it rocks on the PC.

Nimbus,
Gllad I asked now, you are correct, so looks like Counterstrike or Rainbow six 3
Anyone played both and care to comment, I've played CS on a PC before so know about that one, just wonder how it compares to RS3.

Counterstrike on the Xbox is poo. Really bad single player .... it's just a cheap port of a game without any of the fluid gameplay of the PC versions. I'd stick with R63 if I were you.

I've played both / still have both , but I haven't played counterstrike in months
