Play one of the following:

- Borderlands 2
- XCOM: Enemy Unknown
- Forza Horizons

And while you're at it go pre-order Halo 4


Now there is some good ideas. I would just have to buy borderlands 2 and forza, but XCOM is on the pile already. And of course I have already preordered Halo 4.

Find something to play for six days, and then Assassin's Creed III.

Otherwise, it's difficult to recommend without knowing what you've already played.


I did not list my backlog, I measured it in centimeters. The list of completed games would be even longer, I think.

What games do you own or have completed?

What systems do you have?


I said my favourite genres in the op.

If I posted my backlog as 200cm pile, that should tell you that I am not going to bother list all of my games here. Too much work.

This is posted at Microsoft discussion, so one could assume that I want to play some 360 games. I also mentioned ps2 and indirectly wii on the op.

Sounds like you need some Sleeping Dogs in your life, if you already have XCOM then that is good to if you feel like TBS game.

Well, you already beat Fallout 3, maybe try Fallout New Vegas?

If you liked XenoBlade, I strongly recommend Lost Odyssey for 360. It's my favorite JRPG this gen, and it's kind of like XenoBlade, but less bizarre, yet still really interesting with immortal people who can't die.

The Last Story is also a great game, and at 20 hours, it's a game you can complete relatively quickly and add to your complete pile.

Mass Effect is a great trilogy, a good hybrid between shooter and RPG, but at 20-30 hours per game, completing the trilogy might take a while. However you can beat 1 game and come back to the sequel later, you won't be lost.

Too Human, despite bad reviews, is an excellent Action RPG. PRetty short too, but if you don't own it, you can easily find it for <$10.

If you need a good intense shooter, oh man give Vanquish a try. It's not a shooter, but if you liked Max Payne 1/2 at all, then this is for you (but it is a difficult game).

I dunno, I could name more, but the games I would strongly recommend are Fallouts, Lost Odyssey, The Last Story, Mass Effects, Too Human, Gears of War 1-3, Vanquish, and maybe Deus Ex (It's on my TDL).


These are nice suggestions, thank you.

Fallout: NV is on my to do list. I started it a long time ago and did not finish it. This might be the game I start to play now. :)

I know, Mass effect is one of my favourite series. Along with gears of war and halo, these are the games I complete shortly after starting them.

Too human was a decent game, my friend made me to finish it on co-op.

Vanquish noted, Deus ex too and the last story ignored. :D

:-O?

Why ignore Last Story?

 

What are your thoughts on Lost Odyssey?

If you like Halo, Gears, and Mass Effect, you might like Alan Wake. I mean these 4 franchises, plus Forza, Lost Odyssey, and Fallout are my favorite for the 360.

I missed the fact that you named PS2. Drakengard is a good M rated Square Enix JRPG/hack and slash. Front Mission 4 is also an excellent game on PS2.

 

That reminds me, Front Mission Evolved is actually a really cool mech shooter in the 360. I loved it, and you can find it for $10 now.

Because I am boycotting Mistwalker untill they make Lost Odyssey 2, that is why. You can proibably guess what I thought of LO from that. Yes, Alan Wake is excellent. :)
