Just a flying visit to say that 10 games offer is real

http://www.xbox.com/en-GB/10gameseach

Get a mate to buy a 360 before December 14th, and you both get 10 games. Decent ones too at that.

Oh and Orange Box rocks btw. Especially if you haven't gone through HL2 or the extra episodes.

There's also some sort of Europe only festival thing coming late november. 3 days free gold and 'exclusive' downloads, no idea what though.

The one thing putting me off CoD4 is I've heard the singleplayer is quite short

That's probably a good thing for me. Might actually finish a game for a change

I heard that too but the multiplayer is well worth it. I'm still playing COD 2 multiplayer, I think COD 4 will offer more than the COD 2 has.

I always find multiplayer is a great idea for me for the first few weeks then I get bored because I miss playing for a few days and suddenly everyone's godly but me and it just gets crap.
I played CS for years but that felt different as there were specific servers I went on so it was more the community than anything I enjoyed.
But these days, I'd say I'm pretty much solely a single player gamer now.

I'll definitely get CoD4 at some point and no doubt once everyone starts raving about it, I'll want it. But I think while I have to be sensible with my purchases, I'll probably get The Orange Box first as it'll last me longer.

I'm with Haly on the multi/single idea, however that didn't stop me throughly enjoying BF2 back in the day. If you don't have time to invest in becoming godlike, find some friends to casually play with. I'd say 99% of my time on BF2 was with a friend or two on Skype who I'd introduced to the game

I think that friendly COD4 matches could be fantastic. Get 4 people on each side, make sure the map is fairly small and compact and it would be ace. It would give a chance for everyone to learn maps and tactics from the others who will no doubt have played it more (probably Leo, Wellington and myself).

I'll definitely get CoD4 at some point, just not immediately I don't think.
Think lately I've been going through quite a run of wanting single player games, multiplayer requires too much commitment from me at the moment
