Gears 1 +2, Tales of Vesperia/Lost odyssey if you like JRPGs, Mass Effect for sure, Dead Rising, Dead Space, Orange Box, Ninja Gaiden 2

If your PC can run Fallout 3 good, I'd say get Mass Effect on PC. It runs better, the interface is better, the controls work better with a mouse and keyboard, and the DLC is free. But definitely play that game. It's amazing.
For 360, get Gears 1&2 and Lost Odyssey, and if you're a fan of hack 'n' slash, get Ninja Gaiden 2 also.

Honestly the only console game I'm looking forward to is Skate 2, which I believe is on both x360 and ps3.

That's another one you should get on PC rather than 360.

I wouldnt get gears. Doesnt really look good. And the first was a real letdown.
I played it about a year after it came out. I was quite shocked to all the ratings it got.
What i would suggest is:
Mass effect and oblivion for RPG
Burnout paradise for Mental racing and online.
Gta iv
Farcry2 (maybe)
some other shiz

You are one of the very few that doesn't like Gears of War. It's an awesome game, and the second is simply amazing, aswell. I'm not big into "alien" type games, but Gears of War set a new standard.

Fair enough you wouldn't get Gears, you're an idiot, but don't try and stop the OP, who might not be as much of a cock as you, from enjoying one of the best game series of all time.

God some fucking people have anger issues, seriously.
I was just saying, if i were him (im not saying i am), and i were a person who diddnt know better, i would get it. And be letdown.
The whole "bloodstains that look like someone put some ham on the ground" and everyone looking like they eat steroids on toast every morning made the game seem really stupid.

I'm with Frac on this. I didn't like gears. It's such a basic generic shooter being carried by a great engine. The cover system isn't anything to boast about, the 3rd person view is annoying, the multiplay is boring and slow.
I'm a fan of Epic, probably a long time before you even knew who they were, but gears is just mediocre. Thankfully gears is finished though, now they can go back and fix the title that made them who they are today.

Are you gonna get Gears 1 too? It's pretty cheap now and an amazing game. Plus it'd sort of help with the story of Gears 2.

You should really get that on the PC.

I would reccomend getting Gears 1 first, or both of them. It should be $30 new for gears 1.
Also I second Marvel Ultimate alliance, pretty fun action RPG, forgot about it. Try to get the gold edition, it has more characters and shit.
Also, have you checked into any arcade titles? Some pretty fantastic games on there. I would recommend browsing and downloading some free trials once you buy the xbox.

If you have a decent gaming rig already then the 360 is irrelevant

Dead Space and Bioshock.

I agree with you on gears, i didnt like it at all. It was the same thing over and over, the story was horrible. You go through some new area things seem cool, and then all of the sudden a gun fight breaks out, you win, everything calms down, go to a new area, and it its all starts over. Thats pretty much the entire game. Ill probably RENT the 2nd one if/when it comes out just to try a different game on my new projector.

Campaign really wasn't Gears 1's strong point, the multi was.

which was exactly why i promptly sold it after I bet the campaign.

The campaign isn't near as bad as you make it out to be. But you sold it after just giving the campaign a run without even trying multi?

Lol, I think some of you are missing the point of Gears of War. It's supposed to be gory, easy to get into, and badass. You shoot shit up and have a chainsaw gun. Were you expecting an epic quest to save the princess, filled with romance and themes of love and family?

No, the campaign wasnt fun, but I figured the multiplayer would be fun just like it was with halo 2, and it wasnt, the match making, and overall layout of the online sucked, so i sold it.

Ha, thank you. Finally someone gets it. Gears was never meant to be a really deep gaming experience, but it delivers with quick simple fun. I dare any of you get with 4 of your friends and play a couple waves of horde and not have fun...it's impossible. I was not a big fan of Gears 1, I enjoyed the single player campaign, hated the multilayer and got rid of it. However, they have nearly mastered the cover system, improved many of the small annoying things about the enemies from the first annnnnd...ill say it again...horde.
If you don't like Gears it's not because the game is mediocre, its because it's not your style of game. I don't like Tales of Vesperia, or whatever, or Lost Od..whatever...does that mean both those games are steaming piles of filth? Perhaps, ha but really it's because I'm not a fan of those style RPGs.
