Which ones do you recommend? Preferably something a bit older that I could get for really cheap, but not necessarily. You can see the games I've played in the achievements section of my profile, but if you're too lazy to check that out, that's fine as well. I got my 360 late 2007 so I probably missed out on most of the earlier games that were put out for the console. 
 
I haven't got a PS3 (thought I wish I did) and my PC is over five years old, but it might run something that doesn't demand much of the hardware. 
 
I appreciate all suggestions, even if they don't end up being my cup of tea. I'd much rather ask for recommendations on here than google random lists of 360 games that will probably only include the most obvious ones anyway.
 
Thanks in advance!

From my memory, pretty much all the early 360 games have been outclassed. There wasn't really anything "classic" about them.

" @Ihmishylje: It's excellent. The graphics and the story. It's standard turn based combat system with enought twists to make it interesting. Mistwalker knows what they are doing and they sure know how to make some good JRPG's. "

Hmm, it looks like you enjoy the occasional shooter. Maybe you should try The Darkness, that one can't cost much anymore.
 
I also support the Lost Odyssey motion.

" resonance of fate  seriously. best game of the year.  "

Just Cause 2 
Red Faction Guerilla 
Shadow Complex  
Geometry Wars 2

Only vaguely remember that title, have no idea what it's about. I'll definitely look into it. I tend to steer clear from bizarrely titled Japanese games like "Infinite Undiscovery" and the like, but that may be unjust predjudice. "

Ive been putting off Mass Effect. I picked up a used copy and have been enjoying it.

All I've heard about The Darkness is people joking about it but if it's a solid shooter, then I'll certainly grab a PAL version for that price, if I can find one. "

Get Oblivion & prepare to lose weeks of your life to it.

Alan Wake.

I think it's pretty good. No one plays the multiplayer anymore but the singleplayer I think is very strong in both game play and story. And it came out in 2007 so it really shouldn't be expensive anywhere at this point, that is, if any shop still has it of course. "

The only early 360 games I cared about were Oblivion and Rainbow Six Vegas. They weren't launch either, so not that early. Also I see that you haven't played the first Dead Rising.

Kameo is great if you can ignore all the nonsensical hatred it gets.

I'd still say give Oblivion another shot, especially considering the amount of time you seem to have spent in Dragon Age. But I love that game unconditionally. :) 

Dead Rising is a really good choice, but it frustrates some people to the enth degree (you have to play the game the way it wants you to play, and not play it like any other game you've ever seen.)

Kameo is a neat choice, but.. It's not on par with any games on your achievement list.

The Darkness is a great choice. I have no idea why it gets made fun of the way it does, I thought it was a spectacular experience, just too short.

Amped 3 is amazing. Great snowboarding game, better everything else.

Viva Piñata : Trouble in Paradise is something you might want to look into. It could either push you away, or pull you in for weeks and weeks.

Condemned

It's not a 360 game but I cannot find enough words to recommend Psychonauts (pick it in the games on demand section of marketplace). It's 110% worth your $15 (even if you can't beat 100%).
 
You'll definitely want Assassins Creed: Brotherhood and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (I assume you are waiting for cheaper on those)...
 
I am well down with the Amped 3 suggestion above (it's not the best game ever but the crazy it's wrapped in is great).
 
You want Bully: Scholarship Edition, trust me. Saints Row isn't as good at 2, but it's still bananas. I've always liked Tomb Raider myself (with some NOTABLE exceptions): Tomb Raider Legend and Tomb Raider: Anniversary are both good, pick one if two is too much. Newer stuff... Bayonetta is cheap now. X-Men Origins: Wolverine is stupid fun. Darksiders!

Oh, right... mentioned above are Geometry Wars, which is $5 and Geometry Wars 2 is $10. If you like dual stick shooters (my brain will not let me play those without trying to jump out of my skull) they're great.

I would definitely recommend Red Faction Guerrilla.  I haven't finished the single player yet, but have enjoyed what I have played so far.  I really love the multiplayer on it though.  Anarchy with a group is a lot of fun.  I like the destructible environments in the game as well.  We have set up hammer only anarchy matches as well as rocket fights . . . a ton of fun with a group.  

 you should also try getting vanquish, batman arkham asylum ,mafia 2, tales of vesperia, and lost planet 2
