..is there a way to play Rallisport Challenge 1&2 on the 360..? Psychonauts is available online. Dead or Alive 4 is really fun. Dead Space, if you haven't played that already (plays really well on the xbox). And Gears 3 - horrible, horrible game in almost every respect - but co-op action is done well.

Check out the slew of Indie games available for the 360. That's what I would do with it if I got one. Also, the obvious... Mass Effect 1 and 2.

Here's my obvious choices:

Gears of War 1&2, Modern Warfare 2, The Orange Box, Resident Evil 5, Halo 3.

That's actually a good question to ask... do you already have a PS3?

"The Last Remnant" is a great RPG.

joseph_valencia - November 18, 2010 (01:45 PM)
I recommend "Splinter Cell: Double Agent," "Rainbow Six: Vegas," "Crackdown," "Tales of Vesperia," "Elder Scrolls: Oblivion" and "Dead Rising."

I simply can't contain my disbelief on the amount gamers who are under the conviction that Mass Effect 2's story is better than movies. The story is untter garbage. You can save people in a completely random chronological order. The main story virtually does not exist. Imagine if you can enter the cinema after a movie has started at any given time and the movie still makes sense, it would be a terrible movie because it's probably a formulaic garbage . I don't believe people would overlook such arbitrariness. Video game stories are still galaxies apart from reaching even the height of an actual second-tier movie such as The Lives Of Others .

Shit, RunningFree is a Matt Bellamy fan? Guess I have to respect him now.

Anyway, the big question, like Zipp asked, is if you already own a PS3, or whether this is your first current-gen console. If you're just looking for decent current-gen games, then you certainly don't need our help. If you're looking for Xbox-specific stuff, then that narrows the search.

Wrong thread?

Some not so obvious choices here:

- Deadly Premonition
- Lost Odyssey
- Wartech: Senko no Ronde
- Virtua Tennis 3
- Grand Theft Auto 4
- The Club
- Rumble Roses XX (yes, really)
- Earth Defense Force 2017
- Blue Dragon
- After Burner Climax
- Outrun HD (assuming it's still up)
- Perfect Dark HD
- Pac-Man Championship Edition

Didn't someone recommend Mass Effect 2 ?

Suskie - November 18, 2010 (02:52 PM)
Assassin's Creed II is fantastic, as is Brotherhood from what I've played of it so far. Unfortunately, you'll have to play the first game as well and it kinda sucks.

I loved Splinter Cell: Conviction, though they changed a lot.

Dead Rising
Saints Row 1 & 2
GTA 4
Mass Effect
Fallout 3
Crackdown
