I'm getting a 360 tommorow, that my cousin is selling just so he has enough money to see his crack-head girlfriend. Anyhow, I need to know what are the best games for the 360. Im getting about 10 games with the Xbox ($100 by the way) and I did this with the PS2, and PS3, so I figured why not? What do you think is the best game for the 360? Either way...PS3 FTW!!! I'm sorry, I just had to.

I agree PS3 FTW. I have not played 5 games for the 360 and Gears of War 2 was the only one I liked.

I just got my 360 along with 12 games. Some of them I've been waiting to play, or thinking about buying for my PS3, while others, I've never heard of...ever. These are the games I got:

Fallout 3- Really excited to play this.

Batman Arkham Asylum- Was thinking about buying it just yesterday!

X-men Origions Wolverine- Played it on my PS3 once. My cousin beat it though.

Dark Void- played the demo, it sucked. But I'm interested to see how the full game is.

GTA Liberty City- Uh...when will I ever have time to play it? My parents are always in the house!

Dragon Ball Z Burst Limit: Uhh..ok. I wanted this game at a time.

Mirrors Edge- Saw a few reviews of it.

Saints Row 2- Saw someone playing it once.

Afro Samurai- Thought about downloading the demo once.

Fuel- Never heard of it.

50 Cent- Never heard of it either.

Well, these are the games I got. The real reason I wanted an Xbox was because of Gears of War. I'll be back to tell what i think of each!

Physical copy games:

1. Batman: Arkham Asylum (good call on that purchase btw. Awesome game)
2. Just Cause 2 (Trust me. Especially if you like action movies.)
3. Dead Rising (Awesome game. Can be bought for like $20 or less brand new.)
4. Transformers: War for Cybertron
5. Super Street Fighter 4

Arcade (downloadable games)

1. Marvel vs. Capcom 2
2. Worms
3. Castle Crashers (I haven't downloaded it yet due to cost, but everyone will tell you it's worth the cash)
4. TMNT: Turtles in Time Reskinned
5. Mega Man 9 / Mega Man 10 (two seperate games, but they're both worth a buy.)

All are in no particular order mind. There are others, but those are your best best for good gaming on the 360 right now from my personal experience.

Ah. Well at least you have good taste.

I was going to badger you into getting it for the exbawks and PM me your Gamertag since you seem like a cool enough guy. But yeah, the other games I listed are still great. I got Dead Rising for $10 shipped used and it's an awesome game. SSF4 is great for online play, above that if you don't have friends irl that love it then it's a rent it type game. The arcade titles are all great though. Even if you have them on PSN there's a bunch of XBL arcade titles that will catch your fancy. I'd have more then I do know if I could afford to just blow fistfuls of cash on digital game downloads. I prefer to save that for DLC packs and what not.

Speaking of Just Cause 2, didn't it come off as the craziest **** in the world? In a good way I mean. The plot came off as the greatest action movie ever made. Especially the ending. Sandboxing in it was pretty damn sweet too. I'd say that it's a candidate for Game of the Year this year along with WFC.

I dont really have a gamertag yet. My cousin did give me a card for it, but the battery for the controller died and he forgot the charger at his house! I plan on buying one tomorrow.

And yeah, Just Cause 2 was freking awesome! Its tied with WFC as the third greatest game ever! The story was really loose though to me. I perfer where you do a strait story mode then do the other missions later. Thats my only complaint about the game, but it is a small complaint.

No 360 collection is complete without Batman Arkham Asylum, Dead Rising, and the Assassin's Creed games. You have to get Perfect Dark on Live, it's the greatest FPS game ever made.
