Alright, I've been playing Halo 3 since it's release and all my friends have been telling me that I need to just move on already. As much as I'd like to, I'm just not sure where to go. I play COD on occasion and as much as I like it.. I'm bored of that as well.. Anyway any suggestions!?

If halo still works why move? If you must then try TF2 since its completely different, (im also a pretty big halo fan but i like TF2 more) then obviously Battlefield bad company 2 (though it is just another military fps)

Im not saying Im gonna stop playing Halo, but it is getting a bit ridiculous. I can't tell you how many times people would ask me what my favorite game was and I'd say Halo3 and they'd be like "uh... that came out like 48398420 years ago... move on" and I guess I've been extremely biased and defensive about moving onto something diff. So I guess I'm just looking for some insight to something else, lol hopefully not too diff which im pretty sure doesnt exist.. baby steps right?

Counter strike source is full of fun. Zombies, break maps and jail breaks.

@PATERSON: CS 1.6 was the very first game I ever played, when my cousin brought it over.. I think I was 9 and I played that for a really long time. I've thought about getting back into it, but whenever I hop on my computer, I get really distracted and bored quickly :\

You should include a list of all the shooters you've already played then. We can't read your mind.

@Metroid545: Good idea :)  
First off.. A killer campaign would be sweet 
I'm very much used to Havok physics and i think thats where my biggest problem has been with switching 
Online or online co op  
Obviously for Xbox 360 
 
Some games I've played before: 
Counter Strike  
Bioshock 
Left for Dead 
UT3
Call Of Duty series
The rest of the Halo series 
3rd person- 
 Gears of War
Army of Two

I've been playing Blacklight: Tango down lately and it's not that bad. It's fairly similar to the CoD series what with customizable loadouts, black-ops mode, etc. and it's managed to take up a couple hours. However, one thing I noticed when I played CoD: WaW again, you feel so slow and sluggish compared to Tangodown where the running is about twice as fast. 
 
Oh also, it's only 15$ on XBLA so it's not a bad deal.

360 has people playing, but doesn't have updates. So if you can get it on PC, but 360 still is a lot of fun and I was playing it for hours with friends today.

Putting up a second opinion for Blacklight: Tango Down, it's a good budgetgame while still entertaining.

 Wow Thanks for all the suggestions! It's killing me right now. I just got a job at Best Buy and I was at work today and I was totally in the game section for half my shift just looking at these games 
  @Redbullet685:  I'm not really a PC gamer anymore unfortunately , super biased for the 360 I have a laptop, but I only really use it for going online occasionally and for school work...  
@Empirepaintball: Totally loved Bioshock, thinking about getting back into it :) 
@HitmanAgent47: That's a few for BC2.. Probably gonna try that out

I second this.
 
That said, if you like a game and people are telling you should stop because it's not the newest shit, screw 'em. That's like saying you can't watch great classic movies just because they're old.

For single player, try Singularity. Since you like Halo's sci-fi I bet you'll like this too. For multiplayer, you can't go wrong with DICE's ability to make good online with Bad Company 2.

Bad Company 2 is awesome! And a lot of people are still playing that... if you only play first person shooters that will probably give you your fix until Reach releases!

So you weren't thrilled with Reach? I'm surprised, it's vastly superior to Halo 3.

@Fjordson:  It isn't that I'm not excited about it or anything, my friends just bring up a valid point in that I have only been interested in Halo games since I got into it and every time someone would try to get me to play another one, I'd just be like " nahhhhh "  -goes and plays halo-

@TipTipTipaRoo: Ah, fair enough. 
 
I'd say Battlefield: Bad Company 2 then. Other than Halo, that's the FPS I've enjoyed the most this generation.
 
(Team Fortress 2 is fun as well if you're looking for something on the PC)

Highly recommend Bad Company 2 and especially Borderlands. Get some friends together and you will lose track of so many hours.
