I just purchased a 360 so I can play Fable 2. :D

What Xbox exclusive games would you recommend that I try as well? I pretty much will play any type of game.

Fire away!!

In no particular order
Gears of War
Call of Duty 2
Mass Effect
Crackdown
Forza
Bioshock (though not exclusive anymore)
Civilization (not sure it was exclusive)
Lost Odyssey
Overlord (not exclusive anymore)
Condemned 1
Halo3
Tales of Vesperia

I generally dont pay attention if things are exlusive or not but I think most of those are.

^most of what he said
I would add Ninja Gaiden 2 and Dead Rising to that list however
Dead Rising is like 29.99 now

Get The Orange Box if you haven't played it on the PS3.

Crackdown and Gears1. They rest are dependent on your likes and dislikes. For example Dead Rising has an awful save system that many can't get around.

Well come to the bigamist club (dual console owners, lol, and by the way there is an achievement in Fable 2 for being a bigamist, along with being a swinger, hehe).

The 'staples' of the Xbox are:

1. Halo (thus you get halo 3 (one of the best matchmaking systems, with massive details on stats (from bungie.net), with great integration with the dashboard, to forge, and saving video clips, pictures, etc), but if you get into the story, then you really need to play halo 1-2 as well. The story got me so interested that I bought all the books as well).

2. Gears of War (there is something so 'wrong' and yet sooooo fun in taking the chainsaw and cutting someone, or curbstomping, or seeing body parts flying all over the place. The game goes to another level when playing with friends (and having a drink (or 2) at the same time).

These 2 games basically have given the Xbox its identity, however, there are many other outstanding AAA games: (sticking to exclusives)

3. PGR 3-4
4 Forza 2
5 Burnout Revenge (some people feel better than paradise)
6 Test Drive

7. 1st GRAW/R6V
8. Crackdown
9. Shadowrun (many people still like, and with crossplatform play with PC, this game along with Lost Planet still have a healthy on-line community)
10 Like mentioned above, get the Oranage Box, as the Xbox community is likely 8-9 times larger (it outsold the PS3 version by that much)

11 Lost Odessey
12 Blue Dragon
13 tales of vespia (all 3 if you really like JRPG

14 Mass Effect (outstanding game, 1st part in trilogy)
15 Bioshock (I know its comming on PS3, but it will be dirt cheap for the Xbxo)
16 Dead Rising, condemmed (1st one), etc

17 Viva Pinata (there is something addicting about this game)
18 Kameo (for a launch game it is/was a really good game, but like many of the other offering by Rare potentially an aquired taste)

19 A whole bunch of RTS games if you like that genre (from Lord of the Rings, Command and conquer, Kanes wrath, Supreme Comander, Universe at War, Warhammer, and likely the one to top them all early next year: Halo Wars).

There are many others, but the best part of the Xbox library, is that there are many other gems depending on yoyr tastes (like chromehounds, which many still believe is still the best squad based game on Xbox, but certainly a steep learning curve). Similarly many of these games game be obtained for dirt cheap (even new) so sometimes you can 'try a game' for under $10 and be pleasently surprised (see other thread about Darkness deal at amazon).

Damn Deven.. you've convinced me to go back and try and couple of titles.. lol

How did Saints Row get left off the list? I know Saints Row2 is out, but the original is available cheap as hell used. I think I got my copy for $12.99 used and that was a year ago. Probably $10 bucks or less now.

And dont forget to try Xbox Live Arcade. Many, Many, MANY old school titles we all have came to love. All available for download and pretty decently priced ($5-$10 bucks).

Count me in this thread as welll.....got in the $167 Arcade Dell deal on Thur......receiving it on Monday and will 'test' GoW1 from a friend on my 120" PJ setup :-).

Thanks for all the helpful posts. I will be checking a few of these games out soon. :)

You're welcome.
Just don't forget to check out the Live Arcade titles; lots of little jewels in there (way too many to mention).
And in about a month, make sure to check the XNA Community Games channel; the samples we saw earlier in the year were great.
You may be a bit late to the party but its going to be an all-nighter anyway...
