I think Just Cause 2 fits what you're looking for. Red Faction Guerrilla was good fun but Assassin's Creed 2 won the much-coveted My Mostest Favoritist Bestest Game of 2009.
With the 360 you can use either Microsoft's overpriced VGA cable or a simple HMDI cable (provided your monitor also has speakers). Or iyou can use Microsoft's really overpriced HDMI cable kit if sound output is an issue. The 360 supports all kinds of PC monitor resolutions through the VGA cable and generally does a great job accommodating the 16:9 aspect ratio of games to those resolutions.
I've only connected my PS3 to my monitor with an HDMI cable before and the PS3 seems to only support 16:9 aspect ratio... so if your monitor is 16:10, you'll notice that you're actually losing some image. The great thing about using HDMI with the PS3, though, is that you do not need to pay for an HDMI kit to be able to use the RCA white and red connectors for separate stereo audio output.
I will be getting Black Ops simply because a lot of my friends are going to be getting it. I tried out the Medal of Honor beta and it just didn't click with me at all. That said, there's a big possibility that I'll just be playing Reach when Black Ops comes out and then Assassin's Creed the very next week. There's an even bigger possibility that I will just be playing Minecraft.
First game I saw was Kameo. The game that got me to actually buy the 360 was Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter (thanks Bob Colayco). First game I played was Hexic HD.
Then... Geometry Wars took up most of my time on the system and my friends who wanted to play Halo 2 did not understand.
