Can you guys recomend any good XBLA games for me to try?

There is tons of them. What kind of games are you looking for? There are a lot to recommend that are re-releases of older games such as Duke Nukem 3D, Banjo Kazooie, and Castlevania Symphony of the Night.

Some original ones I would recommend are:

Bastion
Shadow Complex
Castle Crashers

 

[AetherWolf]

Rez HD.
I Am Alive.
Beyond Good and Evil HD.
Outland.

Just some personal favorites.

 

[Yopaz]

Psychonauts. Get it and love it!
Banjo Kazooie/Tooie.
Splosion Man.

 

[WorriedSandwich]

Braid
Bastion
I Am Alive

 

[sean360h]

Geometry wars 2
Braid
Bastion
I have heard good things about I Am alive (but i cant play it Damn pc)

 

[Stopdoor]

Greed Corp. (a sort of basic strategy game, but beautiful and fairly addictive)

Just because not enough people bought it.

 

[mental_looney]

Bastion, again
Stacking, Costume Quest, Iron Brigade
From Dust
Alan Wake's American nightmare
Deathspank

 

[Arkley]

The DeathSpank games are one of the legitimately funniest series I've ever played, although the gameplay formula gets old by the third one. They're all pretty similar. In addition to the humour, though, there's even a great (if very silly) overarching plot, and the end of the second game poses a moral choice with so much to think about that it'd embarrass Mass Effect.

I can only recommend what I've played so

Comic Jumper
Doritos Crash Course (this one's free)
Dead Rising 2: Case West
Dead Rising 2: Case Zero
Fruit Ninja Kinect (if you have Kinect of course)
Splosion Man
Ms. Splosion Man
N+
Limbo
Duke Nukem 3D
Sonic 1, 2, 3, & Knuckles, CD, Adventure and Sonic 4 Episode 1 (I'm a big fan of Sonic if you hadn't guessed)
Trials HD
Uno
Pac-Man CE
Castle Crashers
Harm's Way (Another free game)
3 on 3 NHL Arcade

I've enjoyed all of these immensely, although some are more fun when you play the multiplayer they have.

Bully is on there, so it wins.

A whole lot of Double Fine games are on there as well: Psychonauts, Stacking, Trenched, and Costume Quest are all well worth your time.

 

[DesertMummy]

Zeno Clash
Limbo
I am Alive
Alan Wake's American Nightmare
Castle Crashers

 

[sshakespeare]

I had a lot of fun with From Dust

 

[Zantos]

Cthulhu Saves the World is pretty fun. I also quite enjoyed Warhammer 40k: Kill Team. What sort of things are you into?
