The year's top Xbox Live games |
Ó
This is it. The list to end all lists (for the current year, anyway)! Courtesy of Major Nelson, here are the top 20 Xbox 360 titles of 2006, as well as the year's top 20 purchased arcade titles, based on data collected from January 1 to December 29.
Oh, before we move on to the lists, here's a short reminder from the Major:
Remember, UU's is the number of Gamertags that have played a game. In the case of Arcade titles, that list is ranked by purchased games. That is why the Arcade titles may be ranked out of order on the top list. Some Arcade titles may be purchased by one Gamertag, but played by multiple Gamertags.

Now, have your MotorStorm (either the demo or Japanese Single player version) ready. There’re 10 things you need to know in order to score well (against AI or human opponents).
1. It sounds like /moto-stom/... That’s what Phil Harrison who’s the boss of Sony UK has always said during interviews.
- an editor: (during a recent game show) What do you think about the prospect of the PS3 and Sony Co. as a whole?
- Phil guy: Moto-stom! Moto-stom! (Ya... He said only this one word, and said no comment for any more questions... When I watched this interview video, I thought this boss guy is finally cracked up...)
2. Don’t use motion sensing. It’s not implemented well since this is not the final version. (If you read Warhawk’s previews and Blazing Angel’s reviews, motion sensing’s responsiveness is perfect and excellent.)
3. Boost! It’s all about boost. If you know when to use it and when not to use it, you will score really well.
4. Push enemies away from behind; the one in front will lose control.
5. AI cars deliberately play slowly and poorly. The AI in M.S. adaptively changes their playing skills constantly.
6. There’re multiple courses. If you play riding on a big truck, then you can only choose the lower paths. The high-flying paths are always longer in terms of the distances; but the lower courses are more curved; so if you are very good then choose the more difficult but shorter and lower paths with a small bike.
7. It’s like playing First Person Killer games at much faster speed. If you’re good at other racing Sims like Project Gotham Racing 3, then you have to learn to play from the scratch. You have to drive your car as if you are a gentleman in other racing games. In M.S., you have to learn all those hundreds of bumps in the maps. There’re hidden and blocked short-cuts. You must know how to bash and crash to other cars.
8. Read reviews on ‘gamerankins.com’. The reviewers (previewers) say MotorStorm has the best graphics among all games on any platform.
9. The reviewers say the sound effects and the music are as good as the graphics.
10. About one year ago PC games ruled the world then X360 games ruled then PS3 games pwned them all. (Read a lot of reviews and see what the reviewers have said.)
- (chronologicall y) best graphics: FEAR (PC) -> Gears of War (X360) -> MotorStorm (PS3)
- (chronologicall y) technically best: FEAR (PC) -> Resistance: FoM (PS3) -> MotorStorm (PS3)
11. Games like Resistance, MotorStorm, Killzone 2 or Metal Gear Solid 4 are console selling games; People spend hundreds of dollars only to buy one of these games. Games like MotorStorm and the PlayStation 3 are almost synonyms. Games like Craps of War are NOT console selling games. People only and may buy (or mostly rent) GoW if and only if they have already made a fatal mistake of purchasing the X360 console before; however most X360 owners say GoW is actually the console selling game. They say this because they don’t know anything better than that Crapbox Two.
12. MotorStorm which doesn’t even have online modes received 9/10 review scores (check on gamerankings.com). Even though this early single player only Japanese version is a rushed, unfinished and unpolished product just like the Xbox and X360, its review score pwned all... What will be the score of the final version?
13. My friend has imported and played MotorStorm for a week then M.S. ate his soul; now he’s a zombie...
i know im saying this on the internet, but the guy above me seriously needs to get a life. absolutely zero people care about your "MotorStorm guide", and you're just another dumbass PS3 fanboy who is afraid to admit that Sony actually has good competition this time around.
btw, people did buy 360s just to play GoW :)
anyway, my favorite 360 game(s) of the year would be a tie between Oblivion and Gears of War
and what is your point, other than making your self look like a complete idiot?
I see someone gave Ottsel the Obnoxious Sidekick's guide to console hating a read-through.
i need to get a new game as ive completed gow and dead rising so what should i get?
1.ghost recon
2.oblivion
3.lost planet-(when it comes out)
what one should i get!!!!!
