Uno, Texas holdem, um....Sonic the Hedgehog, Castlvania, and some more I can't think cause I turned my 360 off....But get Uno everybody has that game on there 360.

Aegis Wing is fun for multiplayer...so is Small Arms. Castlevania is fun, Uno, Joust I like...Bomberman definitely, there's a few more I forget...



LEFT4DEAD411.COM
Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

I loved Prince of Persia. I don't have a top 5 yet but that would be #1 for now!
It's great seeing a childhood game redone in HD running on a 360 :)

I think these six games are all must-buys:

1 Catan
2 Pac-Man CE
3 Bomberman Live
4 Alien Hominid HD
5 Prince of Persia
6 Assault Heroes

But why not download trial versions and decide for yourself?



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

Hmm.

Castlevainia SOTN is a MUST HAVE. At 800 points, and no less than 10hrs of solid, great gameplay, it's my #1 game.

Geometry Wars is also a ultra-addictive game at 400 points. Very good. Obviously it's the must-have title in terms of downloads, as it's the most downloaded XBLA game in history thus far.

Uno and Texas Hold 'Em, as mentioned. are great online games, if you like those sorts of games. They're also cheap as far as I know.

Settlers of Catan, Carassanone, and Band of Bugs are great strategy games. BoB was alot of fun for me, and has a good online component.

Puzzle Fighter, from what I've heard, is insanely good as well (and was a $50 to boot). High reviews have been given for the game.

The same can be said for Bomberman as well.

Outside of those, just download trials for nearly every game. They're almost all around 50mb, so the DLs are quick.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Hawk on 13 September 2007

Lets See, mine are:

Carcassonne
Texas Hold'Em
Uno
Bomberman Live
Soltrio Solitaire
3D Ultra Minigolf

I had to throw in 6 because those are the only 6 I play.
