Excellent Online Shooter?

[ArmasTermin]

Although MW2's online multiplayer is fantastic, I'm closing in on my second Prestige. I know every recess of every map, and I'm getting to where I have a set battle plan down that I go into automatically depending on game mode and stage. I'm just getting too used to it. I'm not saying I'm a particularly good player (I'm not!) but it's time for a new challenge. New weapons, new people, new maps. But where to turn?

I was thinking Halo 3, but I don't really want to play it that much, it's just widely regarded as having good multiplayer. I've only actually played Halo games a handful of minutes.

So what else is good? Must be on 360.

I'll be honest, I liked Halo 3. The matchmaking was superb, so that even though the game is flooded with top-tier players, you only play against people ranked similarly to you. Though I'm not that great of a player, I found myself at or near the head of the pack most times, and climbing the ranks rather quickly. I don't have too much experience on the 360, as I only got to borrow one for one weekend, but I played through CoD 4 and Halo 3 twice each in that time, and enjoyed them both. I'm not usually one for multiplayer, but I gotta say, Halo 3 has some of the best out there. On a good day, I was even able to own my friends, who had months of experience on me. I've only done better in Marathon, and that's because I started playing that a DECADE ago. (PS, Marathon 2 is on XBLA if you feel like blowing good money on a free-for-PC game)

But if you want something new, The Saboteur looks like a really interesting game. There were a couple older PC-ports-to-360 that I thought looked interesting, but I can't remember what they were.

I think you accidentally the whole bottle there, Fres.

...Not seeing it. 6AM? Perhaps.
