360 games advice
 

I just got a 360, for my anniversary. And a friend of mine tests games and reviews them and said I can have up to 20 games of his. Since I have not played the 360 yet, I would love for advice on which games to get. I like all types, as does my wife. Anyways thanks for your thoughts in advance.

Gears of War
Bioshock
The Orange Box (unless your PC will run it better)
Mass Effect
Call of Duty 4
Halo 3
Forza Motorsport 2

F.E.A.R. is another good one
Crackdown was fun too
Need For Speed series

I would say:

Halo 3
Call of Duty 4
Mass Effect
Orange Box
Gears of War

Crackdown
The Bigs
Live Arcade Disc (so you get a few you don't have to buy)
Ace Combat 6
Assassin's Creed

All of the above + Oblivion.

Must haves:
Gears of War
Bioshock
The Orange Box
Mass Effect
Call of Duty 4
Halo 3

Another vote for Crackdown. I liked Overlord too.

To kinda off set the FPS heavy list I'll suggest the following:

• Guitar Hero III and/or Rock Band
• Project Gotham Racing 4
• Skate and/or Tony Hawk
• NHL 2K8
• Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08
• Splinter Cell
• Burnout Revenge
• Fight Night Round 3
• Condemned: Criminal Origins
• Assassin's Creed

I don't know if I'd call all of the above buys, but they're at least worth a rental.

If your friend reviews games, wouldn't he be the one to ask?
Anyway, the only other game I can think of that isn't already listed here is Marvel Ultimate Alliance. It's a fun 4 player co-op game.

One more vote for Orange Box

EA Skate...
