What are your favorite games to play with xbox live

@Imperious-Leader I wasn’t aware that there was any other edition

I know I’m a little late here, but here is the “Official” game video about Star Wars Rebellion

This will sound silly, but I thought of a cool idea for a tournament/triathlon type event between two friends who are into war gaming.  Basically you’d play the best of the three following games:

Idea 1:  Axis and Allies 1914, Axis and Allies (any edition), and Twilight Struggle

Idea 2: Axis and Allies (any edition), Twilight Struggle, and Fortress America

Thoughts?

Hard to say, really. HoI3 has a lot more to it, and splits units even further, so that when you build your divisions you decide what types of brigades make them up. Also in HoI3, the war system is changed a bit, so that you have to have your neutrality at a certain point depending upon the other nation’s threat level before being able to declare war on them, whereas in HoI2, you could just go for it, but risk that a major power stops your expansionism if you hit someone whose independence they have guaranteed. If you plan on ever playing a minor power, then don’t bother trying to do it in HoI3, it’ll take you 12 months solid to be able to hit anyone else, regardless of which nation you pick. If you plan on only doing the bigger countries that were involved in WW3, then it won’t make a difference.

HoI3 also has more glitches to it, but you can expect them to be fixed by patching.

Really, it depends on if HoI3 is too much micromanagement for you to handle, or if you want to ever play a minor power such as bulgaria or brazil.

Some more details (interviews) from the devs: http://thegamershub.co.uk/2010/03/hubcast-05/ and http://www.massively.com/2010/03/22/interview-with-world-of-tanks-mike-zhivets/

I have this game too. It has little value. Even the pieces are too ugly and huge and are made with the wrong plastic.

Eagle was the old Helen of toy game company circa 1960’s.

All their games belong to the inside advertisements of comic books and deserve no other realm.

I knew they would be out of business before long.

Hiho,

This is one of the finest wargames ever made.
Columbia Games developed a lot of very good games: http://www.columbiagames.com/

If anyone would like to know something about those block-games, just ask me.

Hey Djensen, checked back in and noticed this… I use BGG to decide what games I should purchase on my limited gaming budget. The thing that makes the site is the people who contribute loads of feedback on games and what you will enjoy based on your preferences, but like Yanny said, it is one clunky place to navigate. I particularly don’t like the geeklist navigation where it always jumps you back to page top…

That’s my 2 cents…
