360 Games

[WOPR]

GTA IV and Saints Row were fun games

no, and no again; but thanks for the suggestion

If you just have MS points for now, get Braid. It's an awesome puzzle-platformer.

I was also gonna recommend Shadow Complex, but you don't seem like the action-y games. However, if you like old 2-D action games likes Castlevania, Metroid, Contra, then definitely get it.

Oh, and also get Mass Effect 1 & 2 if you like story-driven games.

I'm going to look into Shadow Complex

as for Braid, it would be pretty stupid to get it on 360 when I already have it on steam

Oh okay.

Are you, by any chance, interested in racing games? If yes, buy any of the Codemasters racing games available (Grid, F1 2010, Dirt 2), or Forza 3 (of course). Oh, and if you like Mario Kart type of racing games, get Blur. It's incredibly fun, especially online.

Also, if you like any action-adventure (God of War-ish) games, get Darksiders and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. Both are fantastic games.

Blur was "okay" ; I can't STAND mario kart (get me F-Zero) ; Castlevania is on my "MUST HAVE NOW!" list, and darksiders... *stifles a laugh* I'm sorry but no thank you, I have no interest in "rip-off the game"

That's fair, although it must be said that force unleashed is totally different on Xbox. Tales of Vesperia is a great (and by great I mean BLOODY EXCELENT) jrpg. It's active combat so it's engaging and really quite fun. Again, Shadow Complex is friggin' amazing. I dunno...Mass Effect 1 + 2 are good, Assasin's Creed 1 + 2...it's hard to say really. There are a lot of great games out there. I would download Shadow Complex, and then just go nuts.

I know it's different, I played (borrowed) the Xbox one; I'm not too huge a Starwars person though (minus KotOR)
I'm looking at shadow complex right now... looks like a gritty reboot of contra (which I have NO problem with)
as for Tales of Vesperia I'll look it up, but I got kinda done with JRPG's after FF1-9 and 4 the after years

Good Man!

Although Vesperia is quite good. Nothing like FF. You control your character actively in battle (none of that FFXIII b*****it) and it's got humor and charm. It's like Tales of Symphonia for Gamecube, also an amazing game. Btw, I forgot to mention Enslaved. Has it's faults, but really great overall.

 

[WOPR]

I feel I should explain the LIMBO thing

it's good

but it's not $15 for it's length good...

it would be like paying $15 for braid and only getting world 1

 

[WOPR]

Fable III comes out next week. Should be epic.

no thanks, I didn't like fable 1 or 2

I never died in the limbo demo because the traps were so dang obvious (I've beaten Abe's Oddworld mind you) but if the bloods red... and the whole game's in black and white...

why don't I just play madworld?
it was only $5 and it's pretty decent in length (and REALLY funny)

sorry to make this about LIMBO I'm just saying is all
anyone have any input on the game?

 

[repeating integers]

Hal - oh wait... I got it, Homew - oh wait, that's for PC...

Mass Effect. Both of them. Both equally awesome games in different respects - some nice TPS and RPG mixing backed up with a brilliant background, a great story and cool characters. Be warned, though - the first has the Mako, a vehicle you will either love to death (like me) or want to perforate with many sharp objects.

"Homew-" what were you going to say there?

 

[Rhymenoceros]

Viva Pinata.
Seriously.
I'm a 15 year oold boy and I love it.
My 10 year old sister loves it.
My 15 year old friends love it.
My 19 year old brother loves it.

Everyone loves Viva Pinata.
Even Chuck Norris.

FINALLY!

SOMEONE WHO APPRECIATED MADWORLD.

AND YOU'RE GETTING SUPER MEAT BOY. (Gish is also in it. Awesome. Inorite?)

OMG.

 

[AssassinJoe]

Assassin's Creed 2

It's a great game.

 

[WOPR]

1) you just lost that credability with the chuck norris comment
2) I'm 18 not 15... and trust me THERE'S A DIFFERENCE (I would know... 3 years ago RE4 made me go "ew" now I play Madworld and laugh)

Assassin's Creed 2

It's a great game.

1 was better and I didn't like either but thanks

FINALLY!

SOMEONE WHO APPRECIATED MADWORLD.

OMG.

Howard: heh, this is nothing...

"Homew-" what were you going to say there?

Homeworld, an RTS game on the PC and my personal favourite game of all time. It's standard practice for me to recommend it to people in most "I need games" threads, so that was kinda me making an in-joke with myself.

Don't want to derail the thread onto the topic of it though. If I happen to have piqued your interest in it, then PM me.

 

[Jetut]

Crackdown 2 is worth a look. And red faction is good to.
arcade wise Toy soldiers and marval vs capcom 2 is worth a look.

 

[technoted]

I'd advise selling it and buying a PS3, clearly if you hate GoW and Halo, the 2 main series of games on the 360 you may as well have just got a PS3, it would really have made much more sense.

 

[The Funslinger]

People have said force unleashed, but the wii version was SEVERELY trimmed down, I'm not saying that because I prefer 360, it just was. Plus the 360 version is privy to DLC content, and various other things that make it worthwhile. Also, the second one will come out at some point, so at least get that on 360 when it's out

 

[TheBoulder]

You NEED to get the Mass Effect series. And Red Dead Redemption. Also, since you like arcade games, you should also get Shadow Complex.

 

[Wintermoot]

I like Gundam Dynasty warriors its like 99nights except good and I bet the regular dynasty warriors is also good

 

[krugerrand123]

orange box and oblivion

 

[Tsaba]

A good game if no one has mentioned it yet is Limbo, You said you like pc more, so mass effect is out of the question, Dragon Age is better on PC as well...
Rainbow Six Vegas, the online is pretty good, probably still a large terrorist hunt community out there, Viva pinata is good if your into that sim city kind of thing, I'm sure people will mention other good games that are out there.

I dont like GoW and I stopped playing halo a long time ago and I still like my 360


OT: Condemned: Criminal Origins is a great game, the bioshocks (I like both 1 and 2), Alan Wake was good as well. I also play Borderlands( get the GOTY edition) but only get it if you have someone to play it with imo. Rainbow Six Vegas 2 was a fun game as well.

side note maybe get netflix as it adds alot more the the 360 in general, especially with the new layout comming soon.
