ABR Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I'm considering buying Splinter Cell Chaos Theory off of the XBL Marketplace but I'm concerned that nobody will be playing multiplayer. I don't wanna throw away 1,200 points so I was just wondering if people are online and if it is worth buying. So.. help? :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi18 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Yes and no. It depends the game and time. I would do it just for story though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So.. help? :] I wouldn't hold my breath, Personally Xbox originals has totally backfired and has flopped. No Achievements for these old school games serves no purpose to play to most of the community. 80% of 360 owners have played these games, so whats the point of playing Chaos Theory or whatever when it involved no achievements, These are games people have played before.

Impulse Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 if you play it from a disc though, can you still play multiplayer with guys who have downloaded it from XBL marketplace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tussell Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Definitely! I still occasionally pop in Counter-Strike and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. Good times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xX MaslaN Xx Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I really dont know why someone would ever download some old ass game from XBL anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABR Posted April 24, 2008 Author Share Posted April 24, 2008 I lost my original disc and I want to buy it because SC:CT is my favorite online multiplayer game ever. I was really disappointed by Double Agent and I'm only interested in playing it online again since I already beat it once on Xbox. I guess I won't get it though, since I don't think anyone would still be playing it. :[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Albert Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I still play counter strike sometimes too but i would never buy it on xbl if i didnt have the game. It seems like a waste of microsoft points to buy a game with no achievements. Just play the origionals you have dont waste your money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerd Brown Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I don't ever buy any old games of marketplace. The ones I wanted to play I have played in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xKNIGHT617x Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 if these games had achievements that went up to 500gs whole different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Showdown13 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 No. Personally I'm sold out on the achievement thingy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkPyroGuy_09 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Not Splinter Cell, I tried the last one that came out I didn't it, Any ways I do some times when I feel like playing KOTOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordvader178 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Download Ninja Gaiden Black. It has no multiplayer, but it's extremmlly fun and will give you a run for your money. The story is pretty original, and your a ninja, plus the second one comes out in June. Go get that. Or buy black, that's way more fun then Chaos Theory.

CORPSE CRISIS Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 ive had a few friends that are playin this game but not all the time..i would say that u should buy a nice arcade game or somthing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khaos Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 When I get ambition I plan to get Psychonauts. I just loved that game so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onemorechanc Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Nah, I don't play originals ... the 360 is the first console I've owned, and there are plenty of titles on it to keep me busy. If I did play originals, I wouldn't buy the download version though. I'd rather pick it up used for a couple of bucks. 1200 points is a bit much for an old game with no achievements.

pwjuggalo Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 i still play some originals...i play doom 3, soul calibur 2 & just started playing breakdown again....classics are hard to let go of....hell i still like to play castlevania: sotn on ps1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jEnNz4 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 If the original games on marketplace had achievements I would totally play them again! There are some good games on there like Black and Halo 2. I think a lot more people would play the old games if MS put achievements on them.

Ashz0r Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Most thegames on the marketplace its cheaper to buy a second hand version of the original then buy them off the marketplace MUCH CHEAPER.. I found halo 2 and physconaughts for only 6 pounds each at an game trade in shop. Two people on my friendlist still play halo2 everyday but I think they are hardcore Halo fans and have a statue of masterchief they pray to before going to bed and they see Halo3 as the anti-christ. I don't tend to message them anymore on live for my own safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzar77 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 i havent bought any xbox originals...was thinking of getting pirates though, that game was a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laufton_13 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Only original I got and will be getting is Indigo Prophecy and thats only because I checked like six stores and there wasn't any used copies P.S. Double Agents multiplayer sucks compared to CT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Rated Love Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I put in Crimson Skies every now and then. If people still play that online (which they do), then I'm sure people play the game you're looking at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprostini Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 It may be worthwhile some people will probably be playing it. Although I recommend trying to get a new copy of the game. I wanted to buy Psychonauts but found it was cheaper off of Amazon (including p & p) than to download it. Just a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crockford1217 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 gonna get black, i loved that game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
