I'm relatively new to the Halo series. I played Halo 1 once for about 10 minutes when it first came out and haven't played any other iteration until I bought Halo: Reach yesterday. Only one person on my friends list has Reach. Can anyone tell me their gamertag so I can play the mulitplayer??
Dragon Age: Origins is one of my favorite games on 360. I loved the story and depth of content. I am usually big on graphics, but in this game it didn't really matter for some reason. The PC is the superior version, but if that is not an option, the 360 version is still very satisfying.
I wanted it, but I just bought the Tekken 6 and Tatsunoko vs Capcom fightsticks. I felt paying $240 in a month for fightsticks would not be a wise finiancial decision, haha. It looks great though. I might trade in a few things to get some cash to get it. I may want to start collecting them
I have mentioned this to you on the reccomendation sticky a while ago but I will mention it again. Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 are two of the best 2d fighters ever made. Why are they not on neither the xbox live arcade section nor the fighting game section?? Honestly, please answer the question. I am just curious how you have a game reccomendation sticky and chose to not include those games. Not to mention Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix, which is also a great game.
Are you referring to HB option pass play?? If so you will need to actually pick that type of play in order to pass the ball with the running back. Which "pop ups" are you referring to? By "too many talking", are you referring to the commentators??
Marvel Vs Capcom 2 is probably the best fighting game ever made, which you can find on XBLA. I would also try Virtua Fighter 5 which u can get for around $15 used
I don't know how I forgot MvsC2 since I own 3 copies of the game... definitely one of the best fighting games ever made. I forgot it too and I also own that one and am getting the new game for the Wii Tatsu vs Capcom. I recommend Soul Caliber 1 (XBLA), Soul Caliber 4, Street Fighter 2 HD (XBLA), BlazBlue (more people need to play this), Mortal Kombat vs DC (I hate Mortal Kombat but just for the story), and Marvel vs Capcom 2 (XBLA).
Cool cool, also another thing. Are most fighting games pretty easy to use the xbox controller?
Seems to work ok. Joystick is always nice to have but you will want to get a good one and those seems to cost about $100 and up, so if you are just getting into fighting games I would just use the controller. For BlazBlue I am unable to do some of the special moves on the PS3 controller, I don't know why, its easy to do but it isn't working I don't know if it is the controller or not or how the 360 controller will work compared to to PS3 one. I forgot about the 1st Soul Calibur on XBLA. I didn't buy it since I already have it on Dreamcast as well as SC4 on 360. It's still a great game worth the reccomendation. I'll also be getting Tatsu vs. Capcom for Wii. I was thinking about getting the fightstick from gamestop for $70. It looks sooo tempting. Especially since I don't know how a wii fighting game is gonna be on the wiimote. I hope you can use a gamecube controller.
Cool cool, also another thing. Are most fighting games pretty easy to use the xbox controller? Or should I look into a joystick? or fight pad? any suggestions on that?

I am comfortable using the analog stick on the 360 but a fightstick is alway superior IMO. There has been people on this site that complain about the d-pad, but I never use it for fighting games because I'm more accurate with the analog stick. The d-pad also irritates my thumbs when I play for an extended period of time. I just got the Tekken 6 Limited Edition that comes with the game and a Hori fightstick for less than $70 at Amazon.com. Considering it was 56% off of the retail price, I got it mostly because of the deal rather than me wanting a fightstick. I believe the Mad Catz SF4 torney stick ($140) is the best quality stick available. I also saw that online a little over a month ago for $70 and I think I should've purchased it then. There are also fightpads available for SF4 but I never used them. To me, a controller is a controller. There are people that do believe they are better than the standard 360 controller.
I think I might pick up Marvel Vs Capcom 2 soon, and I think I might pre-order Super Street Fighter IV in the next month or so as well =)

I think that buying MvC2 for now and picking up SSF4 in a few months would be a wise decision. Thinking about it now, I don't think purchasing SF4 now would be worth it considering SSF4 is coming out in a few months and it will only be about $35. That is, since you are thinking about buying SSF4
