Hey everyone.

I picked up a 360 arcade recently just so I could play Fable 2. What an awesome experience. Now things are starting to fade a bit and I'm starting to look around at all the other things I can do and its getting interesting. One of the main things I'm wondering is what games do people suggest I try get hold of. I'm a pc fan, so I prefer my FPS games to be on that. I seem to enjoy RPG things like Fable so maybe something along those lines? I'm also looking for a racing game, but not one of the serious ones, maybe something like Wacky Wheels back in the day.

Any suggestions appreciated.
 
U could try burnout paradise, GRID (half sim, half arcade but 100% fun),NFS most wanted or Midnight Club LA.
 
For a racer I rate GRiD most highly.

If you like RPG's then the next game on your list should probably be Fallout 3, it's getting excellent reviews. Going into the back catalogue a bit also get your hands on Mass Effect.

Have you tried Gears of War? It's not an FPS, I highly recommend you give it a bash, it's a great game. And cheap. Crackdown is also a lot of fun, mixing Sandbox gameplay with a degree of RPG stats management. If you like diablo type games you may also want to try Too Human, but definitely rent it before you buy it, it's not everyone's cup of tea.
 
For a Racer PGR 4 is also one of the most beautiful 360 games available ! definate buy

Non serious racing - try burnout series, always great to get paid for destruction. :D
RPG - that is a bit more dificult as you need to know what type of RPG you prefer i.e. JRPG vs Action orientated (read: button mashing) RPG.

Old games you can get cheap...Bioshock, Gears of War, Crackdown, Orange Box, Far Cry...quite a few.
 
Burnout sounds entertaining. I'll look into the older RPGs too since they will be easier on my wallet.

Thanks for suggestions so far :)

Anyone know a good place to get a HDD from? I suspect I'm going to need one soon when NXE comes out

RPG on the 360 is interesting.
If you like your Final Fantasty type get Lost Odyssey...pure goodness!
Action RPG, have a look at Eternal Sonata, very pretty indeed or wait a bit and see what happens with Last Remnant.

For some fillers look at getting Star Wars: Force Unleashed, I spent a good couple of hourse this weekend to play it. Was some good fun!
Another good filler is Ninety Nine Nights, ignore the reviews! It is bloody good fun! Some graphic slow down when you have a 200+ enemies on screen and special moves flying about!

Hmm, we've also neglected to mention oblivion if you haven't played it on PC, and Infinite Undiscovery as well. Not perfect but still apparently quite fun, it got a 7/10 average, which is far from bad.
 
Gods, that's true forgot Oblivion completely, get that if you have time to spend on it and spend nothing more than R200 on it.
Very few people finish the actual game.
 
Fantastic. Thanks for all the advice.

I've got oblivion on the pc and have already lost many an hour to it ;)

Time to go shopping for the rest

It's sitting on the shelf, have not been able to get into it, don't know why but just did not "bite" me like the origional PC version did. So just let me know, maybe willing to trade it for Burnout Paradise ;)
