My Xbox 360 games

If you're expecting a 3D platformer like BK and BT, then you're in for a surprise. Whether it's a good one or a bad one, that's another matter. I quite enjoyed this game, but some of the collision mechanics are a bit frustrating.
Very traditional, very safe, and very good. It's like Final Fantasy 5 HD. Basic storyline, adventure theme, job system, good music, and a very popular (though not my favourite) art style.
I don't normally enjoy GTA style games, but the super-hero-style player upgrades, the ridiculous explosions you could set up, and the tomfoolery on offer with the maxed out Agency cars made this game a riot. Orb hunting for the OCD in me made this game all the more enjoyable.
Not a bad game, but not as enjoyable as the first, for me. Basing the game on the same set of islands made it familiar but a little repetitive, and the increased focus on gunplay wasn't to my tastes.
Renegade edition - I am a big rhythm game fan, but I wasn't sure I'd like this game. However, the tracklist was a big seller (though I imagine many music fans may have found it too mainstream and poppy). An enjoyable game with some great mashups.
Haven't played it yet, but not sure if I have this in my backlog as I generally don't view party games or rhythm games are real backlog titles.
LE and Ultimate versions
GT introduced me to racing games, and Forza 3 was quite a fun ride, though the event list was IMO too big for its own good. I also hate the concept of unicorn cars.
LE
Playing this at the moment, and while it's a great game, and love the additions and changes made from FM3, I still have the same two gripes. Event list is still too big, and unicorn cars are a stupid concept.
A really fun game, though it took a little while to get used to the combat. Two main gripes that are kind of the same - there's no fast travel system of any sort, and the character movement speed is a bit low.
Another mostly traditional, mostly safe, epic multi disc RPG on the 360. And much like Blue Dragon, I loved this game. The only criticism I have is that the bonus dungeon DLC was a bit tacked on, and the drop rates for the items there was stupid.
Platinum Hits version with DLC on disc, NTSC-U (region free)
I loved XMen Legends 2, and though this game simplified things in some ways, it was still a fun game. The game has some balance issues, but it's co-op, so it's no big deal.
For those of you thinking you should go back and play the original? Yeah, no. It's... dated.
Brilliant game, but naturally outdone by RB3.
Best music game I've played.
Track pack, basically.
I'm not a huge Beatles fan, and this game was amazing. The intro alone is almost worth the asking price.
Another track pack, basically.
Cute looking game, very repetitive, but a fantastic tracklist out of the box.
A fun little game and the figures look quite nice. Expensive to "own", but then so is Rock Band if you want the instruments, or a racing game if you want a wheel, or a fighting game if you want a stick.
I have all 32 figurines, but no colour-variants or legendaries.
