What are the best games for the 360?

who doesnt like sports games? Madden 11 is legit. Fun when you do online franchises for money. Madden challenge, legooo!

I don't know what the hell is wrong with that boy. He plays real football, but won't watch it or play Madden. Dad might have to make an executive decision on Madden because that shit looks sick. Mass Effect 2 looks like a winner too.
 


+1 for Red Dead Redemption. Really fun game (think a Western-style GTA).

I have L4D 1 and 2, both are pretty good. I found L4D2 kind of annoying at times, and it's hard to navigate the levels IMO.

Black Ops is meh.

I love FIFA 11, but if he doesn't play sports games, I guess he won't like it.

Kinect is fun for parties and stuff. If he has people over a lot, get a Kinect.
 
+1 for Mass Effect 2 (and Mass Effect 1 too, if he hasn't played that) and FIFA 11.

I've also been playing the demo for Just Cause 2 recently which is really fun.
 
Like to 3rd or 4th the Mass Effect 2 suggestion. Seriously the Mass Effect series is amazing. Red Dead Redemption got game of the year, I'm sure he would like Halo Reach if he doesn't have it all ready.
 
Red Dead is awesome. The Red Dead addon (Undead Nightmare) received a 10/10 from IGN which is huge (they hardly ever give 10s). Will probably pick it up soon.

COD Black Ops is aight. I have a PS3 so I'm looking to get GTA5 for Xmas.

Just what I fucking need, more vids to keep me away from churing out campaigns.
 
I totally forgot about red dead, that game is legit. L4D is fun but it was only fun if I played with 3 other people that I knew.
 
So here's the deal - looking to get a few games for my 13 year old son. He's not into sports games, he likes shit like Halo, Bioshock, Assassins Creed etc. So what's the best shit out there now? Haven't played xbox in awhile so I don't know. Was looking at the knect, but the few games they have look pretty gay. Suggestions?


Sounds like his tastes are similar to mine. I enjoyed Condemned 2 (it's a bit bloody though and I'm not sure if you put a cap on what he can or can't play) and of course, Halo Reach and Black Ops recently came out. Battlefield 2 isn't bad either. I agree with you on the Kinect.
