    See every other thread on this forum. I know I'm coming off as a jerk, but decide for yourself. You have, at your disposal, every asset to determine if you'll like the game. You have reviews, trailers, VIDEO reviews, etc.

    Edit: If you really care so much, I would say Orange Box.

    I recommend getting anything other than Mass Effect. Not a very good game at all.

    Yeah, I'd go with these four.

    Mass Effect - The Mako driving can be a tad frustrating and boring, but the game is still great.
    BioShock - Would you kindly buy this game.
    Condemned Criminal Origins - It's a launch title that is interesting and cheap.
    Dead Rising - I bought my Xbox 360 for this game.  I luvs zombies!

    Burnout Paradise is a great game. You can't go wrong with that one. Plus i just saw it went to 30 new on PS3. So a 360 price drop should be soon . If not already.

    I think those 4 games are spot on.

    Mass Effect is an amazing game, definitely don't get something else instead of it. The best game out of the four.

    I recommend getting ME for the PC not the 360, the controls on the 360 version suck and the framerate is horrible. The 360 Bioshock version is good but if you have a gaming pc i would go with it too.
    I would recommend you Burnout Paradise, Losty Odyssey, Bad Company and saving that extra cash for xbla games or some incoming AAA game.

    Like hell.  Kids these days seem to lack the patience to learn how to use the controller such that it will work with any kind of game that isn't a shooter on the 360.  "If it's not following the shooter format, therefore don't play it the 360."  How about: if you take the time to learn how to move around with the controller, it works just the same?

    The frame rate is fine, btw.

    I recommend Dead Rising.

    Killing thousands and thousands of zombies with nearly anything and everything never gets old.

    Mass Effect- I enjoyed it when I figured out how to play it.
    BioShock- Haven't play it but it's a great game.
    Burnout Paradise- Bah screw Buronout, get Crackdown or NGII
    Battlefield: Bad Company- I enjoyed the campaign, and the online isn't bad at all, though I think it's over exagerated that it's 'completely new and never been done before' It feels like a better CoD4.
