Erm. I'd swap both L4D and getting it on PC. One 360 it's the most pointless game ever. It's currently £20 on Steam.

Ok. Have fun paying for the updates to L4D.

I'm sorry.


I just don't see the point in this game being released for the 360. AT ALL. It costs almost twice as much as the PC version. The rest of the game is going to be released for free on the PC. 360 owners are going to have to pay for the rest of the game. So not only are they shafting you on the 360s game pricing, they are kicking you when you're down by charging you again for the rest of the game! Plus you're paying for the online play on top of that. You also have to put it up with all the dumbass kids that play Live, you have to put up with the crappy control scheme, the lack of mouse control, the loading times (alleviated slightly by NXE but still).

Man, Im not sure your understanding what Im asking. Im trying to get rid of the game for a DIFFERENT 360 game. Im not gonna pay for updates because Im exchanging it. If you think it sucks on 360, thats cool, I don't care I'm looking for some advice on what another good new 360 game would be.

Not sure if you're saying you got 2 copies of L4D 360 or just 1. Regardless get rid of both, and just start buying up all the Live Arcade titles that people swoon over.

I gotcha, I'd go with Fallout 3 if you don't already have it

I would highly recommend Tales of Vesperia or Fallout 3. Tales of Vesperia was my favorite JRPG this year along with Persona 4 on PS2. That game has tons of replay and new game plus as well. Also, has plenty of side quests, character leveling, etc..

What I was saying is get rid of both copies. There's no point in the 360 version. IF you want to play a full priced yet half finished game be my guest. It's not really a dig at you more at the game. L4D for PC is excellent, for 360 it's just not worth it.

If we were going to recommend any title to you, you would at least have to tell us what kinds of games you are into and what games you already have for the system.
