Thanks very much for the replies,
Great to get replies from two well known forum members who obviously know a lot about games, and whose opinions I respect. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Splinter cell sounds interesting as I had graphics troubles with that on PC and never got it working properly. Doesn't happen often, but very occasionally conflicts don't seem resolveable. In fact I can only think of 2 occasions in 20 years.
A hack and slash version of BG might be fun too. I tend to snobbishly think of myself as not a hack and slash fan, until I remember all the fun I had with the ones I did buy.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
I'm intrigued by DATD's hatred of Morrowind. It seems to be one that people either loved or hated. I have it on PC and got totally absorbed by it for many weeks. I wrote the first rough guide post to be 'stickied' at the official forum. It got over a quarter of a million views before the forum was rejigged and it was replaced by somebody else's post that was much more up to date and in depth. I also built myself an 'add-on' room with the construction set. I finished it and bought the first add on. Then, an hour or two into the add on, my interest suddenly evaporated and I've never played it since. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/question.gif" alt="" /> It's funny how once something pops the bubble of immersion and the magic of a particular game vanishes, how hard it can be to coax it back again. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />
The main thing is though, that the thread wasn't immediately flooded with people telling me that Xbox isn't worth having, blah blah. I'll now try wading through a few review sites and see if I can get more of a feel for the general play style of Xbox games.
Thanks.
