Funny you should mention Chaos Theory.

I just bought it today and the game is fan-friggin-tastic.

It's just so pretty. The AI is a lot smarter than in the previous incarnations and the little things they added (like the knife and all the cool things to do with the knife ) make this like a whole new game for me.

I've yet to delve too deeply into the co-op mode, but what I have seen is spectacular.

Definately 10/10. The best game to come out on the X-box in the six months.

I delve the bargain bins and pawn shops, no doubt about it. All these games ran me $40 all together.

#2 - Morrowind : Elder scrolls something...something.. (I don't have it sitting in front of me) Kind of a hassle getting started, but pretty cool nonetheless. As I understand it the more you put in the more you get out. I haven't put much in, so, I can't say. So, I'll stick it with a 6/10.

#3 Simpsons : Hit and Run. Pawnshop beauty at $10 and it's certainly worth it. The dialogue is very, very funny and all the inside jokes are a big treat for me as I'm a big Simpsons fan. It's just too cool driving Mr. Plow around and bashing....well, everything. The driving is fun, but kind of glitchy....so, 8/10

#4 Medal of Honor : Rising Sun. I bought it for the gamecube because it was getting lonely. The co-op was a nice change as I don't see it too often. Fun to play through once or twice, but the controls were awkward and the level design was....well, it wasn't all that good. I got lost in a shack in the Phillipines for 20 minutes because I couldn't find my way out the poorly lit maze. Not to mention all the extra stuff, which was hard to find and really didn't pay off...at all. 4/10

#5 Last but not least, Fable. Kind of a cool idea and fun to play through, but it gets pretty tiresome playing through it more than once. I mean, I do the same stuff if I'm a great hero or an evil slug and it matters not a bit. It's a very pretty game and could have been really good, but it just didn't sit all that well with me even though it's spectacularly pretty. Good idea, just poorly implemented. 7/10
