360 Recommendations, If You Please

[TundraWolf]

Fun games to have include Saints Row 2, Mortal Kombat VS DC, any of the Lego games (Batman, Star Wars, Indy) and Rock Band or Guitar Hero (only if you can afford the whole set AND DLC songs, I recommend GH controllers but Rock Band game in my opinion is better).

EDIT - Oooh and Portal: Still Alive, downloadable off Xbox Live, or get The Orange Box for Portal. It is worth it.

The only one I haven't tried/own/beat with a friend is Saint's Row 2, but I'll definitely check it out. Thanks, man.

The only exclusive I can recommend that you haven't already mentioned is Tenchu Z, although unless you are a fan of the older ones then you may be disappointed. Some say it's too simple/repetitive, I like being a Ninja so I say otherwise.

wait, wait, you like being a ninja but you don't mention Ninja Gaiden II?¡ ZOMG LOZL!!!11!!ONE ONE YOU HAVE AIDZ¡¡¡

*faints*

After having gamed long and hard on my PS3, I decided that it'd be about time that I tried expanding out to get into the 360 market, to at least see what the hype is about. I went and picked one up and, despite having to return the original due to hardware problems straight out of the box, I now have a working model and have started playing on it.

The point of this thread is that I'm wondering what games people would recommend for playing on the 360. I already own Gears of War 2 (and will be getting the original soon), Crackdown and Dead Rising. I've played all of the Halo games, so I know what that's all about, and my friend lent me the original Condemned. I'm also going to get BioShock and Mass Effect very soon.

Otherwise, though, I'm at a loss for what games to get. Any advice and/or recommendations would be most appreciated.

Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts.

One of my favorite games of this generation; unfortunately, a lot of people didn't seem to know what to make of it.

Get a PC. JK

Gears 1 and 2 are great!
Overload is good to.
Orange Box is a good one too.

I'm a sucker for cheap games (Under $20) so here are a couple that you may like:
-Marvel Ult. Alliance (Very fun hack and slash)
-The Orange Box (Very cheap now and has sooo many good games. If you don't already have the games in it, then you should for sure get it)
-Dead space (A little scary, and not under $20, but a very good game)
-Viva Pinata (Childish, yet oddly extremely addictive)
-Army of Two (GREAT game to play with a buddy, HORRIBLE game alone)
-Phantasy Star Universe (If your into MMO's this is a great console one. Monthy fee though =/)
-Chromehounds (Very fun if you have enough people to play with)
-Kameo (Only about $10. Ok game)

If you get Live here are a few arcade games to check out too:
-Peggle (One of the best XBLA games to date)
-Castle Crashers (Very fun, especially with a couple friends)
-Blazing Birds (Had a blast with it, I would try the trail first)
-Aegis Wing (Free and fun)
-The Maw (No replay value, but great game)
-Geometry Wars Evolved 2

And that's about it. Somewhat long list, but all of those games except Dead Space are around $20 so you should for sure check them out.

Fable 2, CoD 2, Project Gotham Racing 3, Perfect Dark Zero, Earth Defence Force 2017 (Google it),Halo Wars and Forza 2.

That's a nice bunch of exclusives right there.

This. This is the sort of stuff that I was looking for. I have a bunch of the other games for PS3 or PC already (stuff like CoD 4, L4D, Fallout 3, et cetera), but exclusive titles are what I was wanting. I'll have to look into these.

Thanks a lot, dude!

Happy to help *faint whistling*
