I have to say that Orcs Must Die is surprisingly awesome, the best tower defence I have played, it combines 3rd person shooting and trap laying much better than Sanctum did it's only missing co-op.
In the end it's just a lot of fun to kill Orcs.
Available on XBLA and Steam

Binding of Isaac is also great a "twin-stick shooter" with randomised dungeons with a wide variety of powerups and enemies. Combining arcade shooting with a roguelike dungeon was genius.
Available on Steam

Ohh good ones, I was about to buy Binding of Isaac, it caught my attention on steam and was kind of cheap (don't know now)

Didn't know Orcs Must Die was on Steam, always tought it was an XBLA exclusive don't know why. I watched a couple of videos and the game seems pure fun. Do you know if can be played online or co-op offline? that would be a blast.

 

@MR.Tar : Yeah Xenoblade Chronicles is one heck of a game it has almost everything I wanted on an RPG. Truly an amazing RPG and one of the best of all time

no multiplayer in orcs must die unless you count the competitive leaderboards
