4 Stars American Wasteland
I like Tony Hawks American Wasteland a lot. I like the goals that you have to complete. They are challenging and fun.You can switch from bike to board easily.I also like the places where they put the ramps.I play this game a lot. The only thing that I do not really like is the goals on level 4, otherwise, the game is really awesome!!!
3 Stars umm…ok.
this game was alright. i’ve been playing tony hawk games since thps2. this game is nothing special, i’d rather play thug1 because that at least has jamie thomas. the only things i thought that were cool is the new spray feature where you can spray the ground, and the few new moves. the new no load screen feature is a joke because you still have to change areas with a loading screen in multi-player. also i didn’t really get into the soundtrack i guess because i have this version. also why didn’t activision keep the create a deck mode the same as thug1 why did they change during thug2? after thug1 the tony hawk games have been going down hill and have had a cliche story mode. all in all this is pretty much a clone of thug2, it’s just a dressed up version of that.
5 Stars best game i’ve ever played
this is the best game i have ever played,

P.S. if only all games were this good
3 Stars One of the better skating games
American Wasteland is alright not all that fun but not so bad that no one would buy it. Once you get in to it it’s not that bad but it doesn’t take very long to beat I beat it in one day.
4 Stars Ify
Not the best but not the worst. Ok but pretty much the same as the undergrounds. Its still one of the best skateing games out there.

5 Stars Best Xbox game I have ever Played
I bought this game with a subscription to xbox live in June Summer of 07. I think it was the perfect, best, and funest game for me. I dont like the all out imposible to get a kill action on halo 2 so I thought id give Far Cry Instincts a try. It was worth every pennie, the graphics are awsome for an xbox game the trap setting is nice the nice amount of weapons and vehicles, and the online play will have you on for months! First off I completed the campaign a little easy at first but once you get “feral powers” it was easeir. Im basically going to base this review on the online play so if you want to know more about the general game find a different review. First off I found a game as soon as I got on xbox live there are quite a few people still playing on regular xbox. I was killed over and over but found friends that were very nice and helped me get the hang of the game telling me secrets, glitches, powerfull weapons and good tactics. Also, far cry instincts was not like a halo battle everyone kill everyone in less than 3 seconds its like a halo and gurilla tactics all in one if your an action person grab an m16 g/launcher and go at 5 people at once if your a sniper it is a perfect game for you get in a tower with a .50 cal sniper 10 round magazine and kill 10-35 people before they notice and get angry and kill you. If your stelthy grab 2 silent pistols and duel wield (like halo) and wait for the perfect head shot. If you love traps set a claymore or 2 or 5 in a bush next to a heavly used pathway and hear the tink tink tink boom. Also tree-traps can be placed by putting them on trees for the unsespecting person to get wacked 10 feet back to the ground. All around it is a great game for whatever type of person you are, im all 4, I think everyone who has xbox should have this game it is simply the best.
4 Stars fun but there’s just one thing
i liked this game but the thing i did not was they say lots of swear words
other then the swear words get it
5 Stars This game makes Halo look like a b$%#%
If you thought Halo or Halo 2 single player was good, then you haven’t played far cry instincts. This game is the second best FPS in single player mode next to Half Life 2. Seriously, now that this game is less than $20 bucks you’ll be happy you go it. The challenge of this game is well balanced, its fairly long considering you’ll die a whole bunch, but it will make you come up with different approaches to different levels of the game. I highly recommend this game 
4 Stars FAR CRY, PRETTY GOOD GAME
This game is pretty good, great graphics, pretty good sound, and the environments are awesome. But I think if there were more guns than the game would be more fun.
5 Stars May be the last truely great shooter on the Xbox
All I say is that this is way better than Halo or Halo 2(Although the Halo games had a better story line). The graphics and visuals are absolutely amazing and the gameplay is just absolutely fun. There are tons of weapons to choose from and the feral abilities are really fun to use. This is quite possibly the best shooter ever created for the Xbox.

Crime does pay. The hugely successful, highly controversial Grand Theft Auto franchise moves into 3 dimensions in the dark and seedy underworld of Liberty City. With the freedom to go anywhere and jack anyone, Grand Theft Auto 3 puts the dark, intriguing and ruthless world of crime at your fingertips, if you have enough guts to take it.

5 Stars never try to buy xbox games from wmp3
Both grand theft auto 3 and vice city are awesome games, i recommend purchase this item, but not from wmp3 because you will never recieve it and have to contact amazon for a refund.
5 Stars STILL GREAT AND AWESOME 9 OUT OF 10
Before I bought this double pack for my Xbox, I had only played Grand Theft Auto for PSone and Grand Theft Auto III on a friend’s PS2. So when I saw that these games were available on Xbox I was very excited because I thought they were exclusive to PS2. I can really see why these games are considered some of the greatest ever made because of their innovation, excellent missions, large level of controversy, and of course the car theft. The graphics however look ugly and there are targeting problems regarding guns. These problems are minor when you really get into these awesome games. So please, buy these games for PS2 or Xbox, and play the games that reinvented the video game industry.
5 Stars Another Title to play again on Xbox 360
You know it’s cheaper to buy used Xbox Games to play on Xbox 360 especially when you have HDTV and component cable. This is great renewal of game experience in all new level. Especially, nowadays with Xbox 360 being mainstream, the game prices of used Xbox games are going down fast. Better get those games before all turns into collectibles.
5 Stars Excellent VALUE
When this was released awhile back, Rockstar (or Take2 – whomever owned them at the time) gave xbox fans something most companies don’t, a deal. 2 very large worlds, 2 very long games, at 1 price. Thank you ROCKSTAR.
5 Stars fun at it’s best
When america wanted food we gave them McDonald’s, when America wanted entertainment we gave them Carowind’s, now when America wanted a game with infinate replayability we gave them GTA. Rockstar never ceases to amaze soceity what with their controversial game’s that we can’t help, but to love. Trust me people these are the games that you want. Stealing cars, blowing things up, killing the public and ruling the world never get’s old. Many side missions, huge landscapes, plains, motorcycles…….. THE WORLD!!!!! Just look out for the cops.
Cabelas Dangerous Hunts 09
January 18, 2009 by Xbox Reviews
Filed under Video Games
Get into bone chilling, pressure-packed hunting situations as you seek out savage animals in the world’s most dangerous locations. In Cabela’s Dangerous Hunts 2009, you will face raw danger as you encounter the fiercest animals on earth, including lions, grizzly bears, jaguars and more. Accurately modeled Cabela’s equipment in the game means the firearms, tactics and gear are all realistic and precise – but this won’t always help in the face of an unpredictable, open environment packed with avalanches, elephant stampedes, and piranha infested waters. If you do miss a shot and fail to stop a charging man-eating animal, you will be forced to fight it via a melee defense – but pay attention; it’s likely another nearby animal will join the attack.

2 Stars Unrealistic
Although it would be pretty cool to go hunting in Africa and such, this game is way unrealistic. Saying that, it makes it kind of corny too. It seems like they tried too hard to make it action-packed. The game starts off too fast, with too much action off the bat to make it very unrealistic. It seems like everywhere you walk something big and dangerous jumps out and attacks you, putting you in this unrealistic situation in which they try to make it seem all dramatic, where you have to “rappidly tap” the button that is commanded to kill the animal and escape unharmed. Overall, not the worst game. It’s still kind of fun to play a hunting game, but the most I would pay for this is probably $20.
1 Star Do Not Waste you Money
This game is ridiculous. Every animal in the game is trying to attack you and eat you. From Lions, bears, snakes, hyenas, piranas, and yes, even elk and moose will try to kill you. I shot at both an elk and a moose from 150 yards and they both tried to come gore me with their racks. My charachter was able to wrestle the 1000 lb moose with it’s rack until it ran away.
The storyline is so unprobable it makes it worse. The main charachter is a loser hick, who talks like he has a pole up his rear. The charachter acting is horrible. And not only are all the animals always trying to kill him, no matter where he is going, nature is trying to kill him too. From avalanches to floods, he is always in the worst place at the right time. He happens to be hunting lions, when the whole hunting colony is attacked by verocious lions jumping in over tall fence to come eat everyone. And planes crash when he is out hunting and he has to go save victims who are being eaten by jaguars.
The game storyline would have been better if they claimed aliens had taken over all the animals and were after the loser hick hunter who had a magical power or something.
And to finish it off, the menus in the game look like coded graphics from the original nintendo in the 80′s. They definitely did not spend any $ for some good programmers to complete the menus. And they probably got the voice acting from bums off the street for $5.
Don’t waste your money. To think that Cabellas, a hunting company put this gross attempt together or even endorsed it is a shame to their name.
3 Stars Wasn’t what I thought.
The game is really corny. There is really no free roam. There really is no hunting the animal. The animal hunts you. I had an elk attack me because I shot at it from over a 100 yards away. Not realistic at all. This game is not worth the money.
3 Stars Dangerous Hunts…Not Much Hunting
The graphics to this game are really great but it lacks in the action department. If you are looking for something with continuous shooting and such, this game is not for you. I purchased this for my boyfriend who is a devoted fan of games such as Call of Duty, Gears of War, and Halo, and I think it was a little boring for him. For a hunter though, who knows that patience is one of the most important aspects of the hunt, this game would be a great gift. I would not say that it contains in your face type action, but the hunts really are cool.
