Super Meat Boy is one of the best 2d platformers ever. Definitely a must-buy if you like that kind of thing.
Super Meat Boy and Braid are the cream of the crop. Fez and Dishwasher: Vampire Smiles are well worth it too.

just in addition to the recommendations you will get here. pretty good site for your co-op needs. my tip: Castle Crashers.
For the nth time every time this type of thread pops up:
1) Pacman CE DX
1) Pacman CE DX
1) Pacman CE DX
....and if you like that game you should also check out Pacman CE DX.
What are some titles with solid co-op / local multiplayer modes?
Castle Crashers and N+ both have great co-op modes.
Dust: An Elysian Tale, Spelunky, Bastion, Trials Evolution, Bionic Commando, Costume Quest.
Dust is half price right now so no better time to pick it up.
My vote would go to Castle Crashers, Super Meat Boy, or Spelunky. I have put sooooo much time into each of those games.
A game that most people overlook is Deadlight. I thought it was neat for what it was despite it's various flaws. Also Trials Evolution.
Super Meat Boy is possibly my favourite game for 360 nevermind XBLA. Just try not to break too many controllers.
Most have been said, but Battlefield 1943 if people are still playing, FarCry 3 Blood Dragon, and Braid.
