Forums - Microsoft - Games worth getting a 360 for

JinxRake on 04 July 2013

I think the 360 is gonna drop like a rock in price around here and I'm tempted to pick one up for the heck of it pretty soon.


I'm a bit too lazy to search for myself, so I'm asking: Which games would be worth getting a 360 for?

I have already played and completed: Halo 3 & 4, Fable 2, Gears of War 1, 2 & 3 and Alan Wake.

Is there something still decent that would warrant the purchase?

would be good to know which systems you already own and also if you are interested in arcade/indie games

Lost Odyssey

Tales of Vesperia

Project Sylpheed (got bad reviews because it's short, but for the 5 hours it lasts, it's amazing)

Too Human

Magna Carta 2

Forza Motorsport 3 and maybe Horizon

Halo: Reach (My favorite Halo)

Splinter Cell Conviction

DeathSmiles 1 & 2

Crackdown 1 & 2

Crackdown,

 

Dead rising,

 

The Witcher 2, a good alternative if your PC can't handle it.

 

Metro 2033, again, if your PC can't handle it.

 

DarkStar Alliance,

 

Fez,

 

Braid (though this is totally multiplatform),

 

Geometric Wars 2 (MUST HAVE),

 

Battleblock Theater,

 

[Still TBA] Lives & Deaths

 

State of Decay.

A gaming laptop that I'm not inclined to stress too much considering it's crapped out on me twice so far.

 

I own a PS3, PSP, PS Vita, PS2, PS 1 :D...so pretty much every PlayStation platform is in my room right now.

 

Wasn't Too Human a general failure so bad that it made history?

It was mediocre. However, by sentence it is stated that every copy must be destroyed. So owning one is kind of a relic nowadays.

Dead Rising
Earth Defense Force 2017 (unless you have access to the superior Vita version)
Lost Odyssey

But the superior Vita version doesn't have the superior offline Co-op ^^

Plus Pale Wing.

Plus extra missions.

Mass Effect 1 is still one of my favs this gen. Emulators for last gen games will come through if you create a free account and start up online. That opens up Kotor 1 and 2, Ninja Gaiden Black if you haven't done Sigma 1 on PS3, Jade Empire, Halo 1 and 2 although you're better off looking for Anniversary cheap with the graphics upgrade. ESIII Morrowind was a big wrpg but load times and visuals are pretty awful really. Fable The Lost Chapters had maybe 5-6 hrs of extra content over the original release but will be hard to find. Same deal on load times. Can't recommend Gears Judgement, maybe when it hits $30. Halo Reach lacked the chief but had a decent campaign.

This link seems to list everything that was ever exclusive at launch as well as what's also on PC.
