Reccomended Xbox Originals

[Technomage333]

I'm not sure if you can get it on xbox 360 but if you liked psychonauts and you can find it I'd recommend Stranger's Wrath. It's an old Oddworld game that was pretty fun.

Stubbs is dirt cheap on steam, if you wanna go PC, it is great fun tho!

I'd recommend Gladius and the original Mercenaries, I don't know if they're doanloadable tho, I'm just going on good xbox games I remember.

 

[Conqueror Kenny]

Jade empire is an epic. Should munch up a lot of your time whilst you wait for any new games.

 

[WingedFortress]

Sid Meier's Pirates! is alright. I've heard it's loads better on the PC though, so take it with a grain of salt.

 

[Alone Disciple]

How 'bout-> Hunter: The Reckoning That was a fun zombie shooter that was tough

 

[zachatree]

Psychonauts.

I second that I would like to add 13 and Conker: Live and Reloaded to the list

Fahrenheit (AKA Indigo Prophecy) all the way. Great game.

I would have said Psychonauts if you didn't already have it. That, Fable and Halo: CE are my favorite original Xbox games.

If you can find it, get Samaurai Jack. That was a great game based on the even greater cartoon.
Another gem from the Xbox era you don't hear much about is Lord of the Rings The Third Age. It's a bit like Final Fantasy but set in the the LOTOR universe and has a story that runs parallel to the events in the movies. The LOTOR movie-based games were also good. Some of the best movie based games you'll ever see, especially Return of the King.

LOTR The Third Age is pretty much just a clone of the trilogy with less interesting character though...

I'd heard there was a Samurai Jack game. Assumed it was balls like all other tie in games.

 

[Reaperman Wompa]

A lot of the above ones plus Thief Deadly Shadows and Morrowind.

 

[Volucer]

Stubbs the Zombie
Destroy all Humans
Psychonauts

Although several other ones are good (Fable, Jade Empire) Although I found them cheaper to buy pre-owned or on PC.

 

[Eldritch Warlord]

why is everyone just listing the 9 or so games available for download over and over again? pointless

I thought he was asking for good ones among those, given his choice of wording.

In that case I also recommend Halo 2.

 

[huntedannoyed]

I haven't played it, but I keep hearing good things about "Dark Watch." Also, Fatal Frame 2 is pretty fun if you like scarry games.

 

[TsunamiWombat]

Dark Watch was decent, not everything it was made out to be but decent. Metal Arms: Glitch in the System is a neat game with a unique storyline.
