Call of Duty 2 great FPS good online as well.
Oblivion RPG amazing story great playability.
Rockstar Table Tennis cheap but easy to play and good fun online.
Plus with COD2 and Oblivion there are loads of updates coming out(new missions,maps,items etc) some are free,some you have to pay for.
With Live you can download demos of games that are already out which is good idea to plat before you buy.

Had some huge laughs whilst playing COD2 on Live after a beer or two 
.
Even when playing in campaign mode and sober, it's a brilliant game. Kept returning to it after I bought GRAW just because of the atmosphere COD2 creates - GRAW is soul-less and sterile in comparison.
There's a vid of COD3 available for download on Xbox Marketplace. Looks stunning (all 10 to 15 seconds of it )

Burnout is good online, but Bizarre have ruined PGR online with the last update - getting into a race is nigh on impossible these days since they supposedly "fixed" the matchmaking. Please bizarre, I'd rather race against anyone, even a 0 than wait for another 3 30's to enter the lobby... 
Some great games on the Arcade - Uno for instance.
Perfect Dark is still pretty good online, and there's tons of games going on ebay not for around £25.

I remember it needs to be 10 wins in a 4 player game if that helps - computer controlled players dont count.

the player matches are where I got the bluff acheivement - I dont bother normally with bluffing - too risky.
PS Nathan - it wont be long before you can £300 odd quid for a console and all the bits and then play pacman on it
Oh and see how long you spend in Hexic too.

Our 360 has just packed up for the thrid time :|
Freezin at start up or soon after the game has loaded.
Is anybody else still having issues with theirs?
Weve only had it since Xmas, its been about 4 weeks since the last repair.
Surely this isnt normal/acceptable?

Mine still freezes - but its usually on the dashboard and not during a game
Strange how Ubisoft can make something as accomplished as GRAW and MS cant even tell you who's online without it f*cking up...

I'm sure MS know about it, but as yet, have chosen not to do anything.
Although I'm sure that'll change

Back on subject. I don't know whether to get GRAW or COD 2? Which is the better game, for online too.
For those who have played both extensively of course!

I've got both and it's a tough call, both are excellent games in there own way.
COD2 is a great 1st person shooter, especially the single player on veteran mode. The online play is not bad.
GRAW is a great 3rd person ( or 1st ) tactical game, not quite as full on as COD2 but the online play is much better.
IMO get them and play them both at some point...
