Hi, I was a proud PS3 owner for 3 years and now i'm sort of moving over to Microsoft. The reason I say sort of is because the 360 is for both my sister and I and the 360 is going to be connected in the living room, so don't worry, I'll be using my PS3 now and again (mainly because I got black ops for easter ). The main reason I started this thread was to find out what are some of the best games out there for the 360. But, the games either have to be console exclusive or at least better on the 360. Before Anyone asks, I got the 250 GB Xbox 360 Slim with Kinect. Also, feel free to post your gamer tag as well.
Gamertag: UhanRodric Top games off the top of my head for xbox only(IMO): Viva Pinata (don't laugh) Fable 2 and 3 Alan Wake Others: Dragon Age Fallout 3 Assassin's Creed Brotherhood Bioshock Borderlands
Booch138 is my GT Mentionable Exclusives that are good: Halo: Reach Fable 2 and 3 Gears of War 2 Alan Wake Halo Wars Other games that are great to get that I am currently playing or have played: Fallout New Vegas Borderlands Fallout 3 Dragon Age I & II Battlefield Bad Company 2 Dead Space 1 & 2 F.E.A.R. 1 & 2
Halo series (mentioned already by is a priority) Gears of war Alan wake Forza 3 Splinter cell conviction Others: FIFA 11 Fallout 3 TES 4: oblivion Mass effect 1 and 2 NBA 2k11 Arcade: Shadow complex Castle crashers Limbo
I vote Gears of War and Forza. Alan Wake was recieved really well but I just couldn't get into it. Definitely get Shadow Complex and Trials HD on XBLA though, they're the main reasons I go back to my 360 these days. P.S. Oh, and the Orange Box if you don't already own it. Unlike the PS3 version, this one is totally playable. P.P.S. And Earth Defense Force 2017 obviously, you'd have to be insane to pass that up, although Insect Armageddon is due soon so waiting wouldn't be a terrible idea. P.P.P.S. And Bangai-O: Missile Fury when it comes out: Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel
How good is GTA San Andreas (XBLA Version) on the 360? Does it have the multiplayer rampage missions?
Fable 3 Halo: Reach Gears 2 Forza 3 Mass Effect 1 (Also 2 if you haven't played that as you can get it dirt cheap for the 360 now) Kinect Sports
Halo (Reach) is the ultimate starting game for the 360, hands down. Dj hero 2 with turntable is also only 20 bucks at Toys R Us right now, a very fun casual game! As far as awesome games that are cheaper (but still have amazing quality) are Mass Effect 1 & 2, Bioshock 1 & 2, Gears of War 1, halo 3, Oblivion/Fallout 3 and Assassin's creed. Buying all of those not including sequels would cost you about $60 at gamestop used, so for the price of one full game I highly recommend all of those. Edit: ignore cross-platform games!
