Just got an XBOX

[mrhector]

So I decided to finally pick up an XBOX. Got it used with GOW and COD4, so thought I'd ask ... what games would people recommend I have to play...new and old. Oh and my gamertag is mrhector.

Thanks.

[aerodash84]

Lego Star Wars, Tomb Raider Legend, BioShock, Devil May Cry 4, Guitar Hero, Halo 3(but so far I think it's really over rated), Oblivion, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (original X Box)

[mrhaines]

For single player I would try:

Mass Effect
Bioshock
Oblivion

Multiplayer:
Orange Box and COD4 are the best.

add me as a friend: mrhaines

If you get Halo3, let me know. I am looking for someone to co-op with.

[mrhaines]

Some xbox live games that are good include N+ and Geometry Wars

[stubadub]

Pac Man Championship edition is the best $10 I ever spent.

[deegraww]

Deegraww on Live. I've got most of the games listed above and all are good options for your new 360. Crackdown and Dead Rising are great and really don't get the credit they deserve. I wouldn't mind going home and playing them again actually...

My top games:
COD4 (which you already have)
Halo 3
Orange Box
SKATE (if you are into skating games)
Fuzion Frenzy 2 (if you liked the first one or like party games)

At least try the Bioshock demo. I hated it, so i passed, but everyone else seems to love it.

XBLA:
N+
Rez HD
Bankshot Billiards

gamertag: jsatt0 (usually in COD 4)

Fuzion Frenzy 2 was voted as the WORST game of 2007 so i don't recommend picking it up

Just got an Xbox? Welcome to 2001 man! But seriously, I'm Harlo37 and will always take friend requests. Well, I will when mine gets back from RROD surgery.

Thanks for all the great suggestions everyone. Looks like I got a lot of stuff to catch up on. :eek:
