xBox 360 Game Reccomendations

[zajohnson]

Heya, fellow Escapists.
Just wanted to get some pointers to good games I can get for my xBox 360!
I just got one with my Windows 7 PC.
I started out with Mass Effect 1 and 2, and WOW, those are AWESOME.
I'm kinda going thru Elder Scrolls: Oblivion right now, but I'm kinda at a lull in the game.
I love RPG's, but I am just about open to ANYTHING.
Thanks!

if your pc can't run skyrim,i'd recommend skyrim.

 

[Tortilla the Hun]

Gears of War, can't go wrong with that. I highly recommend you start with the first one.

 

[Broken Dreamer]

Saints row 2
Fable 2
Dragon Age

Those are probably my top 3 retail games

Castle Crashers
Scott Pilgrim
South Park Tower Defense
Are my top 3 Arcade games

I would recommend avoiding games by Twisted Pixel and Code Masters.

 

[Tortilla the Hun]

If you haven't played any of the Assassin's Creed games, those are great games as well.

 

[Grotch Willis]

Fallout 3 or New Vegas, can't go wrong with either.

if your into rpgs lost odyssey. great jrpg that is fairly traditional.
fables ok, yet if your gonna get one just do fable the lost (chapters?)on your comp.
tales of vesperia is another jrpg, yet 2d action fighting.
resonance of fate good rpg, yet either a lov e it or hate it so look at the reviews first.
ANOTHER JRPG >.<, star ocean: the last hope.
OH get the witcher 2 on your pc, if it can't run it, the games coming out on the 360! and it is AMAZING.
if you like shooters gears of war is an obvious choice, along with halo.
dead space and bioshock good "horror" shooters. not too scary yet still creepy.

Also if your computer can run it get deus ex human revolution! if not then get that on your 360!

I have more but that should be fine for now lol

Tales of Vesperia (since it doesnt look like we're getting the ps3 version)
Saints Row 2
Dragon Age, Dragon Age: Awakening
Bioshock

If you're at a lull in Oblivion you'd probably experience the same in Fallout 3 since they're both very open world RPGs. Fallouts are probably better on a PC anyways due to the huge modding community for those games (specifically for New Vegas, I dont think they took kindly to 3).

I'd personally recommend against any of the Fable games. RPGs and Action-Adventures are my favorite types of games and I found the first two to be vastly overrated, that's just my take though. I wouldn't say they were necessarily bad, but definitely mediocre and not worth the time when there are so many other, much better rpgs out there.

Well, since you seem to like Western RPG's I'd check out the Fallout series namely Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas since those are on the 360. The Dragon Age games might be good too, although I here they're much better on the PC and the second is held in as high regard as the first (Although it seems to work much better as a console game than the first).
