Ok, so i've been thinking about getting one of these, but i'm not sure which i should buy. I only have about $280 and i need that for my new fish tank & equipment during my move Very Happy

. So anyways, for those of you out there with BO2, Halo 4, both, or even none, which is a better buy for the gameplay. Halo 4 or Black Ops 2?

What about storyline?
Multiplayer?
Can you do 4 player splitscreen zomzoms on Black Ops?

OT: For those of you with knowledge in the biology field, any idea how Hermaphrodites are made? Is it a genetic mutation and is it autosmal or chromosomal or x linked?

Also, does anyone know any good 4 player co-op splitscreen games?

Honestly, in terms of storyline CoD has been and probably always will be thin on the ground. Halo on the other hand is known for rather short but gripping campaigns. Halo 4's campaign was a bit disappointing for myself, and I saw the ending from a mile away, but it was still a blast to play anyway, especially with 3 of my friends.

In terms of multiplayer, it depends what you like. If you are not a Halo person I doubt Halo 4 will do anything to change that. Black Ops 2's multiplayer is more of the same from other CoD games, with new perks, maps and guns to use. I would highly recommend both online, but they don't really add anything 'new' to the scene. I believe you can do 4 player splitscreen on zombies.

In terms of 4 player split-screen games, Halo 4 is a blast for the campaign, and Black Ops 2 is great for 4 player zombies. Also, I would recommend Castle Crashers on XBLA, I think it's 1200 microsoft points.

What fish have you got/are getting? I love fish, and have always deliberated about whether to get some!

I have a chinese algae eater and 3 red glass barbs, currently in a 10 gal tank. I'm upgrading to a 29-50 gallon tank though, so that should be interesting. I'll be moving next week, and I need to let the new tank cycle for a few days, so that bacteria can come and the fish wont die from ammonia spikes Smile

Chinese algae eaters aren't really liked by fish keepers, but I like them. Apparently, they are aggressive and territorial, but mine doesn't seem to be that way. I bought it when it was just a baby, and when I introduced it an a third red glass barb, it followed the fish around and they acted as a group Very Happy

I might be getting some new fish. Maybe just something that looks cool Razz

Awesome stuff man, up to age of 9-ish we had a family fish tank, must've been 40 gallons, it was pretty big. I have vague memories of the puffer fish we had, which almost smiled at you, he was absolutely awesome. I should ask my Dad about the other fish we had when I remember Razz

Actually I found BO2 campaign to be amazing. The campaign was surprisingly really good for a call of duty game. I have no experience with Halo, mostly because its just not my thing, and I dont own an xbox, but I have played it. Honestly just buy what most of your friends play, that way you always have fun with your friends Smile

You should get a cod fish but not cod the game! But really it depends on what you like CoD is always going to be CoD and Halo is always going to be Halo, the games don't change too much through the generations, CoD has been the top war game for the past 10 years and Halo has always had an interesting story and amazing multiplayer gameplay. I prefer Halo simply because I prefer the fantasy storyline over the semi real one of CoD plus....people on chat arn't as annoying.

The point you make about people on chat being less annoying is 100% accurate. It surprises me that 10 year old's are more endeared to realistic guns and maps than the futuristic style of Halo, but it seems that way. I would also recommend Battlefield 3 over CoD in the 'realistic' war game genre, if you don't own it Quan.

Haha, thanks for the suggestions guys Very Happy

I would get a cod fish, codknight, but i'm not sure if PetCo sells them, and i'm not sure if cod are really small enough to fit in a tank. I'm not sure if they would be friendly neighbors with my current fish either :/
