With everybody stressing out over exams and such, I think it is appropriate to make this thread and show just how easy my life is.

April 30th is a national holiday in the Netherlands celebrating the queen. During this day we get dressed up in orange, get drunk, act like retards and have a free-market. During this day only, everybody is allowed to set up a stall outside and sell whatever junk they have lying around the house. Needless to say, I always use this opportunity to get loads of games and consoles/handhelds very cheap.

This year, I bought:
-An XBox
-A PSX
-A Visionmaster
-Another GBA (you can never have enough)

and the games:
PC:
-Unreal Tournament 2004

XBox:
-Halo
-Halo 2
-Beyond Good and Evil
-James Bond: Nightfire
-Call of Duty: Finest Hour
-Medal of Honor Frontline
-Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30
-Star Wars Republic Commando

Visionmaster:
-Eagle Plan
-Penguin Hideout
-Crystball

Then I also went to the used-games store today and bought:
-Dead or Alive 3
-Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
-Ninja Gaiden Black
-Doom 3

And I've bought the following games a while ago, but never had a chance to play them:
GC:
-Harvest Moon - A Wonderful Life
-Starfox Adventures
-Splinter Cell
-Mario Party 5

N64:
-Bomberman 64
-007 Goldeneye


So my question to you is, which of these games should I play first?

Mari party.

Mario Party 5 is pretty good. Starfox Adventures was pretty boring when I played it some years ago, because I got stuck at once. Those are the only games I've played.

Still, go with 007 Goldeneye. It's a classic so it has to be good.

Dang, I wish the U.S had a holiday like that. I'd second Isa and Shos choices, for those are the only 2 off that list I've ever heard of.

To be honest Yaya, I think it's possible that you may have heard of Halo.

I thought he wanted to have one picked from the games he's never played. Even though I'm pretty technilogically out of it, I have heard of Halo.

why were you acting like a junkie on my birthday? >_>

Yaya, I haven't played any of the games on that list. You can pick any of those.

Although I have tried DoA3 yesterday. It was better than I expected, but it still isn't nearly as good as the Tekken or Vs Capcom series.

Unreal Tornament 2004 or Brothers in Arms.

007 Goldeneye.

A just played Halo. A bit on the shortish side, but still good. But I don't get all the hype around it. It was barely an improvement from Perfect Dark. I suppose it's just the new generation of gamers, for who this was the first game.
I suppose I'll try Halo 2 next.

I honestly didn't truly appreciate the Halo Series till the end of Halo 2/All of Halo 3. I believe that is when the story started to become really cool, and Halo 3 really improved the gameplay from the previous games.
