Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - Xbox 360

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Not enough content
Tight controls  
Fantastic multiplayer  
One of the best multiplayer experiences available.

Welcome to Modern Warfare. Call of Duty 4 breaks out of the WWII mold and enters the contemporary battlefield beautifully. The single player game tells a compelling story and has several intense action sequences. Unfortunately, the story is over far too soon and you'll be left wanting more. I really wish there was a split screen co-op campaign or at the very least online co-op to give it a little more replayability. However once you start playing Team Deathmatch online you won't likely give the single player game a second thought. Well balanced with a unique and addicting "leveling" system in which you earn access to more weapons, attachments, and Perks. Perks are passive bonuses which range from extra grenades to just having a little more life. It can be quite fun trying different combinations of weapons, attachments and perks in order to find the "Class" that fits your play If you're looking for excellent multi player action, look no further.

BioShock - Xbox 360

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals  
Awesome audio  
Engaging story  
Tight controls  
Innovative concepts  
Just plain fun  
Bioshock is brilliant!

From the beginning you can tell that Bioshock is something special. The amazing visuals grab your attention and never let go. From the mysterious beginning to the mind bending end the storyline is gripping and takes you in directions no other game ever has. The world of Rapture is a beautifully rendered underwater city that has an interesting ruined art deco that will have you wondering what is around every corner. With customization options up the wazoo and battles that never play out quite the same way, the game has quite a bit of replayability. I couldn't write a review without mentioning the iconic Big Daddy and the terrifyingly sweet Little Sisters, which will pose an interesting moral question to players. Do yourself a favor and pick up Bioshock
