I have FEAR on the PC and loved it, but how could you possibly compare the two???

By the way, is it worth going online?

For the Playstation II, just buy a load of Playstation One Games.

I would also urge you to play Silent Hill 2. For many gamers this is one of the best games ever made. It's a very subtle survival-horror game that focus on an intelligent plot with many reference to the behaviour and psychology of human behavior.

How's Dead Space?

Tries to be System Shock 2 but fails. It also has no replay value. Give it a rent and try it out. You'll finish it in one or two nights.

Okami needs more love. It's criminal how few people have played it! Okami is definitely a must buy if you like Zelda style games. IMO it was a better game overall than the last two 3D entries into the Zelda series. Be warned that it's a slow starter; loads of talk, loads of cutscenes, loads of hand-holding. Survive the first few hours and it becomes awesome.

Quite a few of us played dead space, and the overall consensus was positive. The main letdown for me was that the last part of the game isn't as good as the first part. I got a lot of games in this year's Christmas release rush, and out of those I have played this one remains right near the top. Possibly because I wasn't intending to get it, and expected very little from it.

Mass Effect. If you haven't played the PC version pick it up on the 360. It's tied with Planescape: Torment as my favourite western style RPG.

If you like Star Wars and aren't allergic to fun, get Lego Star Wars: The Complete Trilogy. Pure joy on a disc, and moreso if you play in co-op.

Played Bioshock? If not the xbox version is dirt cheap nowadays. Ditto Assassin's Creed. They're both games which gather strong reactions, love or hate.

Wow, that's some high praise right there. This may be a bit off topic, but I'm curious to know what aspects of the game you liked so much to warrant that level of a recommendation.

I personally found the main storyline interesting and engaging, but thought the actual choices given for my actions were pretty limited, the gameplay was repetitive, the inventory system was one of the worst I have ever seen, and the vehicle driving/planet exploration portions were tedious. I would certainly recommend it for a single playthrough on the strength of the main storyline and the details of the game universe, but equal to PS:T?
