FPS for XBOX JKII, Nightfire, or MOH?
 
Any recommendations for one of the mentioned title. I just tried Unreal and did not like it. Looking for a single player or co-op FPS instead of the deathmatch game. I am a big Star wars fan and bond fan. I played the original Jedi Knight for the PC years ago and liked it. Seems like MOH, bond, and JKII should have decent stories and gameplay. One thing that I was upset about is that JKII and MOH are not 16:9. I can get over that but I love playing 16:9 on my 120" screen. I plan on renting one of the FPS along with Tiger Woods this week.

Jedi Knight is great, if you liked Jedi Knight I on PC you will probably get into JKII on XBOX.

If you are really interested in co-op play, Timesplitters II has it, but I play the game primarily in deathmatch mode so I can't comment on it.

I have a 65" WS set and MOH looks great. Some games dont look too squished and this is one of them. I think you would be happy with it. The sound is really hot.

I have JKII on the PC and the level design is pretty, but the puzzles suck and make no sense at all. get a strat guide or find a walkthru. Since you are a SW fan though you should at least rent it, as the lightsaber battles and graphics are sweet.

Have not tried Nightfire yet.

Ever heard of Halo? Pretty decent little shooter. ;- )

JK2 is nice on the PC. The game is suck until you get a light saber.
Medal of Honor - played both Allied Assault on PC and Frontline on PS2 - AA is much better. Excellent PC game.
Nightfire was good on the PC, but the console version seems pretty weak... maybe it's a little better on Xbox.

I'd rank them: MOH, JK2, 007

MOH sounds good if I can do it in 16:9 with much distortion. Thanks for the tip about the puzzles in JKII. I am not interested in that right know. I played the TS II demo and thought it was pretty good. Seems like that is getting good reviews as well. Maybe I will rent MOH first and then try TSII.

If you enjoy tactical FPS I recommend Ghost Recon.

actually I would rank Nightfire much higher than MOH
I've the XBOX version and HDTV
the graphics are much better than MOH and plus the multiplayer
mode has bots and definately brings back memories of Goldeneye

Star Wars............
 
Jedi Outcast!!!!!!

I'm playing this game right now and it's really good!

I'm going to buy this game after I return this rental. I really like it.

You should pick this title.

I played MOH last week and finished the game and I didn't like it!

I only like 4 missions that gave this WWII feel to it but other than that it was like missions on warehouses and missions on very nice clean streets and more warehouses and so on. This is a terrible game. I was bored and I had high expectations for it.

MOH:AA was much better IMO... I know what you're saying about Frontline and that's kinda how I felt - many of the levels were pretty weak compared to Allied Assault. Even the levels that were similar between the PC and PS2 game were different. The PC version was so detailed and realistic and you had more control. The PS2 version felt like a watered down interactive movie version of the PC game plus a bunch of different levels that weren't all that interesting.
