The first one is great, i'd say get the first one and try it out so that you get use to the feel of the game and the mechanics of it all. Then once you do that, then go tonight and pick up GoW 2. This will make the Halo servers die down alot.

it's looking like i won't be buying any FPS ever for the console unless something changes. i downloaded the bf: bad company demo, and though i liked what i saw, i just can't get used to that stupid controller on an FPS. someone needs to come out with a reliable keyboard/mouse setup.

If you get a chance try the first one out. It's short so i really don't suggest buying it. You can probably finish it in about 6-7 hours. I'm hearing the 2nd one is longer and the multiplayer is great. If i'm correct, there's 2 player co-op in the 1st one, not sure about the second one.
