Shadow of the Damned and Vanquish

Bird Assassin. Its $1 on XBLA indie games and you can get a few fun hours out of it.

Vagrant Story

DJ hero 2. I think that game got caught up in the flood of music/rhythm games and man, playing with a friend makes it so much fun.

Victoria II.


Well, everyone that's into grand strategy at least. It's just great to muck around with history in, I ended up with Texas as the worlds industrial superpower by the end of my last game.

Skyrim, everyone who has an HD console or PC that can run it should have this game.
Darkstar one: a pretty nice space sim/RPG, not as in depth as much as i would like but its pretty much the only choice in recent years

for the PS1 Future cop LAPD, it was an amazing game that didnt do well... it also came out on pc i thinks. if they remade this game into an arcade game i would buy it in a second.

Freedom Fighters, i had this game on the gamecube ( idk why i got it on gamecube) but it was amazing. one of the most fun and deep shooters to date. i hope FF2 comes out one day.
edit
Eve online- so far it is one of the best mmos out there. the pvp is multi award winning and the game depicts a cold harsh reality very well with many stories of guild(in game called corps or alliances) theft huge fights of 1000+ total players and the great sandbox feel.
everyone should at least try eve online, it has a huge learning curve but its the only MMO out there so far where YOU matter. a single person can influence the game greatly, and there are many figures in the game that are famous and infamous.

Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom (Xbox 360, PS3)

Everyone waiting for The Last Guardian should get Majin. I doubt the games will be identical, but if your the type of person who likes Team Ico I think you're the type of person who would enjoy Majin.

Tron 2.0 (PC, Xbox)

It's better than both movies, but more than that it's a very fun and unique FPS. If you like a little RPG in your FPS then you'll probably enjoy Tron 2.0. It's also family safe without being kiddie so just about anyone of any age can get into it.

Panzer Dragoon Saga (Sega Saturn)

I don't care if you have to download it and play it on an emulator. I preordered mine back in the last days of the Sega Saturn, but today it sells for close to $300 used on ebay. It's a crime that so few English copies were released. It's my favorite RPG of all time and I think even people who don't normally like JRPG would still find plenty to love in Saga. The battle system is unlike any you've played and the world is unlike any you've seen. I'm not kidding, download if you have to, just play it.

Headhunter (PS2, Dreamcast)

Don't get Headhunter 2, it was terrible. But the first one is great. It takes the best of Resident Evil, Robo Cop, and Metal Gear solid and throws in some motorcycle riding just for kicks. It's not the best game in the world, but it's entertaining, fun, challenging, and sometimes funny. Funny on purpose mind you.

Outrun 2, Outrun 2002 Coast 2 Coast, Outrun Online Arcade (PS2, Xbox, PSN, XBLA)

My all time favorite driving game. I say driving and not racing because it's not really a racing game. Your goal is always to go fast and drift around corners, but passing rivals is only one of challenges. I suggest picking it up on Xbox or PS2. Those version have more cars, tracks, and other stuff. The PSN and XBLA versions are fine if you don't still have your older systems, but keep in mind that Sega plans to pull it because their Ferrari license is going to lapse. Get it while you can, or buy it used.

Modern Warfare 3

nah, Catherine of course.

The Saboteur

Is Victoria II the latest Victoria game? It's quite new isn't it (like one year or so)?

Isn't the learning curve very high in it though? (BTW, why am I asking that as if it's a negative thing? These days high learning curves are hard to find even on PC. Oh how times have changed).
