It has a couple of good sized maps. Some to me seem to small though.

If you like online shoters, my favorite was always battlefield 2: modern combat. And here within a couple months the new Battlefield: bad Company will be comign out (unless they push it back a year AGAIN!)

Well in my opinion,halo3's multiplayer got kinda stale after a while but there are some really good sized maps in the game,and you should have no problem finding people to play with.

I definitely would have suggested Call of Duty 4. I love the online play. I'm addicted. However, if it's not your thing I would suggest Halo 3. GRAW 2 and Rainbow Six Vegas are great, but they are toward the end of their life and it's hard to get acclimated now. Unfortunately, most long time players kick newbies. Team Fortress is OK, but unless you can play with people who know how to work as a team it can be quite frustrating. Crackdown isn't an FPS, but it's a fun shooter with some Co-Op capability.

Again, Halo 3. You might want to give Rainbow 6 Vegas a try as well. And be sure to try Unreal Tournament III when it comes out next year.

You'll probably be disappointed with the amount of strategy in Halo 3. It's still worth a try though. If you like strategy shooters, try Ghost Recon or Rainbow Six. But like another user said, you will be WAY behind the curve on those and that could lead to a lot of frustration.

If you want a large battlefield 2 like experience then good luck finding it on a console. Most console games are limited to at most 18 players so yea... consoles do not do large scale multiplayer, more like squad battles.

Although frontlines: fuel of war looks promising, but its not out yet.

if i were you i wouldn't get halo 3, the multiplayer is fun but gets insanely repetitive, annoying, and boring. rainbow six vegas is the way to go if you want good online MP.

To be honest, you're only going to get two answers here:

Halo 3

or

Call of Duty 4

I say

Call of Duty 4.

Dude your not really making any sense, Halo 3's multi is not even fun to me anymore since I got COD4, and I was a hardcore fan of Halo multiplayer before I played COD4(I must say though that sticking someone is still the best feeling you can have in online multiplayer, for a shooter anyway). You want bigger maps and your gonna trade it in for Orange Box or Halo 3? I have all 3 games in question here and COD4's multiplayer deff. has bigger maps, better strategy, more replayability, and is just way more fun than the other two. Do yourself a favor and give COD4 a little more time man. I know the servers are freakin out but its actually gotten better and you know with the amount of people that play it will get fixed completely. Bottom line: Don't trade it in, give it more time and you will see that it is far superior.

The Orange box is awesome though, and even though TF2 isen't bad its deff. the weak link compared to HL2 and Portal. Get it for the singleplayer alone and you get your money's worth.

The Orange Box was a good deal but I didn't like it at all. All 5 of those games got on my nerves but that's just my opinion. It depends how much you like Sci-Fi & cheesy multiplayer shooters. Halo 3 is kinda old now but is still a game that everyone who has an Xbox 360 should experience. I would go with that or Bioshock dude. Who cares if the box is orange? Just the way the main character looks in Halflife 2 makes me wanna knock the glasses off his head & take his wallet. Good gaming! :D

You've made an excellent decision sir. Halo3's gamplay only gets"stale" when you're constantly getting owned and you rarely win a match.
