Recommendations for XBox 360

Postby impact777 » Sun Apr 28, 2013 1:53 am

Could you please recommend me some nice games for XBox 360? I think I like almost all genres. I'm also fine with violence in video games (battlefield e.g.). What I don't like is bad supernatural stuff and those magic things. Would you recommend the new tomb raider for example? Thanks a lot! :)

Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts
Fun puzzle/adventure/platformer/racing/etc. largely revolves around designing and driving vehicles for use in challenges...and gaming metahumor. Very well done, colorful graphics

Burnout: Paradise
High quality, somewhat arcade-y racing; very shiny.

Both of these are very good games and family-friendly to boot; they are also very good for showing off the capabilities of the console. I'll try and post some more later.

The new Tomb Raider is supposed to be dark and gritty. Gameinformer gave it 9.25/10; so if you think it looks interesting go for it.

LEGO Batman

I don't know if you would be interested in this kind of game, but it's a good game, and it's for the XBox 360, I thought I should mention it. It has all the usual villains, the Joker, Catwoman, the Penguin, etc. Plus, the silly cut-scenes make for a very amusing game.

Rock Band

A fun series of games, but you need special gaming equipment to play, like a guitar, or drum set, or headphones to plug into your XBox controller, so that might be worth more money than you're willing to spend.

Well the most world-renowned titles have been highly publicized for quite some time. And yes get Tomb Raider.

Anyway the list:

The Bioshock Trilogy
The Mass Effect Trilogy
The Call of Duty Series (As repetitive as they eventually get, they were a milestones in the console FPS genre a few years back. Things started to jump the shark after Modern Warfare 2)
Batman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City
Fallout 3 and New Vegas
Dishonored
Deus Ex: Human Evolution
The Assassin's Creed series
The Orange Box
Portal 2
Left 4 Dead Series
Dark Souls
Battlefield 3 (Bad Company is also great)
L.A. Noire

Like you can't go wrong with any of these titles.
