Splosion Man
bayonetta
It's hard to explain without going into too much detail. It exudes charm, has great gameplay, it's very deep, and has some excellent music. Seriously the music is amazing.I actually have this and I've never played it before, what is so great about it?
Viva Pinata is one of rares best games. It's absolutely incredible and just draws you in the more you play it. You're constantly collecting and discovering new pinatas, seeds, and decorations. And there's tons of secrets. You have to play it if you own a 360. No excuses.

Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise (the first one is good, too), Dead Rising: Case Zero, Dead Rising: Case West
I'm on the opposite side of you having gamed on the 360/Wii this last gen but I'm considering getting a PS3 in the future for 1st party games only. Have ton of games for it both retail and digital so I don't know where to point you at. Definitely check out the following:
Deadly Premonition -360 is better than the PS3 version but PC version rules all because Durante fixed it.
Gears of War series- Chainsawing a grub never gets old. I think I liked the first one the best in terms of story but the second one for Horde (third one is also solid for Horde and Beast mode). Spent way too many hours playing Horde. Never was a fan of the MP.
Infinite Undiscovery- Criminally underrated, sorry haters. The sense of exploration is underwhelming and there's awkwardly silent cutscenes, but it's a solid action RPG with a charming main character who's hilarious. Two words: Dinner dance.
Blue Dragon-Final Fantasy 5 spiritual successor. If you can ignore the toilet humor enemies, it's a good game.
State of Decay-Good open world zombie apocalypse game. Definitely recommend it.
Iron Brigade- If you don't have it for Steam, it's a damn good mecha MP game with charming visuals.
Fallout 3
Fallout: New Vegas-These two games run much better on 360.
Phantom Breaker: Battlegrounds
Condemned: Criminal Origins- Definitely one of the best 1st person horror games I played. Ignore the sequel.
Banjo Kazooie
Banjo Tooie-Note for these games: they've only been on sale once and never again. If you want to pay full price for then be my guest, but I would say to wait for the Christmas sale since it might be discounted.
Splinter Cell: Conviction-The co-op is story is fantastic. The SP campaign is all right. I enjoyed it.
Happy Wars- Free to play action MP game with cutesy visuals. It has weekly events. I haven't played it in a while but can easily ignore the microtransactions stuff and have fun. I enjoyed it a lot.
For other games, check out my profile. My GT is Johan El Fuerte. There's too many games to list that would require explaining.

All you need is Geometry Wars 2 op
Well get Gold and Gears of War is free right now.
But yeah you missed out on free Crackdown, but it's worth the $5-$10 it'll cost you. Crackdown is one of the most fun games you'll ever play.

Bayonetta and Lost Odyssey.
- Perfect list. And I agree about Fable, no idea what loved about it,Halo's. Gears 1-3. Alan Wake + American Nightmare. Lost Odyssey. Shadow Complex. Mark of the Ninja. Metro 2033. The Witcher 2. Crackdown 1 (2 is shittier).
Blue Dragon. I don't like Fable, but for some reason people do.....the anniversary comes out soon as well (the only good one IMO). Fable 2 was good actually, but it wasn't for me.
Oh, and Forza if you like racing games. You can skip 2&3 and just go for 4 and Horizon especially.
Perfect Dark XBLA is probably the best game on the system. So that.
Tales of Vesperia is pretty good as well.

Ill never understand peoples love for Crackdown. That game gets insanely boring after an hour or so.Well get Gold and Gears of War is free right now.

edit: I forgot you should get Fable 2. Such an insane improvement over the first game. Buy it.
Tales of Goddamn Vesperia
Forza 4
Forza Horizon
Battleblock Theater

You download Banjo Kazooie right now and play until your eyes bleed.
I found the first 10 or so hours to be a bit of a slog but once I got passed that and the world opened up a bit more it was a lot more fun. It's a good game but if you like JRPGs definitely get Lost Odyssey first. Also if you're REALLY into JRPGs then you can consider The Last Remnant and Infinite Undiscovery. They won't blow you away or anything but I thought they were still pretty good games.Was blue dragon good?
Some other games to consider would be:
Bastion
Fez
Battleblock Theater
Fable 2 and 3
Dust: An Elysian Tail
Crackdown
Super Meat Boy
Splosion Man/Ms. Splosion Man
Several of those have PC versions but they're great games so I listed them anyway. That's the best list I can come up with off the top of my head as it seems like you have the big guns covered in Halo and Gears.
Oh, come on. How can this get annoying?Originally Posted by Linkhero1
Battle music gets annoying after a while. It was alright. The cool thing is that most of these games are pretty cheap now.

Huh? First hour? You're barely powered up in the first hour. The game gets better the LONGER you play as you gain more power.Originally Posted by BendingUnit

Dead rising 1 & 2. Great "RPG" style gameplay and incredible graphics in the cut scenes, fun bosses, great story. Fun secrets and achievements !
Bayonetta and Dead Rising.
Forza Horizon is probably the best recent exclusive on the console.
Alan Wake & Alan Wake: American Nightmare.
Terrific. Also, if you were to ask me, Dance Central with friends and family is fun, that is, if you have a Kinect sensor.

do you game on your PC? If the answer is no, that opens up a lot of great xbla games you probably havent played
also, pretty sure you can get a free month of live and download gears of war free but you already ordered it so w/e

Shooters.
if you got access to gamefly, just start from 2005 and work your way up.
Shadow Complex is the only reason i miss owning a 360
I'll echo what everyone else has said. The Halos (3 and ODST are my favourites), Alan Wake and American Nightmare, Gears series, Crackdown, Viva Pinata, Kameo, Banjo, PGR 4, Forza, Geometry Wars, Iron Brigade and Shadow Complex.
Fable's never really been my thing. I always went with Bioware for my xbox rpgs. Speaking of which, check out Mass Effect (The platinum hits version comes with an awesome bonus disc) and Jade Empire, both of which are available on the XBL store. Grabbed by yhe ghoulies is another one you should check out, it's really under rated.

Do you own a PC? If not, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings.
Pizza Hut app
Maybe the first Dead Rising too, if you're curious. It should be very cheap by now.

You should get a month of live instead of Gears of War - they'll cost the same plus the former includes the latter.
Get Xbox Live Gold, buy Halo 3 and play SP and have a blast in MP, you're welcome :)
Halo Wars is also pretty fantastic.
If you haven't played Battlefield Bad Company, buy that as well.

Viva Piņata is a must. Buy it give it time. It will become a firm favourite.
Also Forza Horizon, Forza 4
Fable 2 and if you can get for cheap 3 (I enjoyed it but a seriously hit or miss game)

Glad to hear the OP got a 360. I have loved the heck out of mine.
If you like racing games also check out:
Project Gotham Racing 3/4

Another recommendation for the first Crackdown. It's one of the funnest open world games I've played and once of my favorites on the Xbox 360.
Oblivion and Halo 3
I envy you. I wish I could experience gears for the first time again.
Chiming in to say the best version of Bayonetta is on 360. Get it!
