Game Suggestions

[Naetun]

Since I can't find my original post and it'll fit better here:

I am currently looking for a good xbox 360 game or two to last me until the new releases at the end of Q3 and Q4. I was away for a year from essentially all games so I don't really have a full grasp of what is out there so any suggestions are helpful. At the moment I am thinking about:

Bulletstorm
Vanquish
Enslaved
Infinite Undiscovery
Dead Space 2
Two Worlds II

As you can see I am fairly eclectic in my game types so please suggest away.

I would wholly recommend Dead Space 2. Just make sure when you save a game you do it in different slots and not save one over the other.

Yeah, Dead Space 2 is great, but try the 1st one beforehand if ya can.
You won't miss out on a whole lot if you skip it, but the original Dead Space just has a different sort of feel to it in general.

Bulletstorm is damn good fun but will get boring after a while.

Metro 2033 is one of the best games I've played within a few years. It's a nice cross between FPS and survival horror. Incredibly atmospheric.

Crysis 2 has a really great campaign for a shooter, but it's multiplayer is laggy as hell and somewhat underpopulated.

Infinite Undiscovery is alright I would say. But, there are far better JRPGs on the console. Tales of Vesperia and Lost Odyssey come to mind. I'd only get IU if you have exhausted most of the 360 JRPGs like I have.

Another thing that turned me off of Crysis 2 multiplayer is the stealth. Anyone can just walk around invisible and just blindside you whenever they want. It is almost like camping on the go for lack of a better phrase.

I really liked Shadows of the Damned.

Here's a review I wrote for my blog. [http://treasurebin.blogspot.com/2011/06/review-shadows-of-damned.html]

Have you tried L.A. Noir?

Do you have an old PS2? Why not pick up Shadow of the Colossus?

Saints row 2 can be lots of easy going fun ^^

Thanks for the advice guys and gals I really appreciate it. I looked into metro 2033 and it looks like a winner for now.
