I was going to get him L4D2 or NBA 10 but looks like he already has both of those so I'm not sure now.  What's a game like Battlefield 1943?  He seemed to like that.

-edit-

Is it possible that the NBA Live 10 he played was a demo since he got no achievements for it?  How do I know if someone just played a demo?

$59.95 Gift Card

Gift card is what I said, but the wife thinks gift cards are lame so that's out of the question.  :-/

We're already getting him 12+1 months of Live for his graduation (today), but still trying to figure out his Christmas present.

My wife thinks Fluffy/Warm slippers or a Tie would be a great gift for me...

So what does this conversation tell us about wives?

Thats right! they know nothing of what a guy wants.

With a gift card he can buy XBL points if he doesn't want a full game, but rather DLC, or some accesory, it's his chice, and a gift card is a safe bet.

broaden his horizons.

Edit:

failing that, you could try MW2, that's more than likely to get a positive response.

Borderlands.

MW 2, he should branch out, and I am sure he will have heard of it

Fallout 3 (YES make him like WRPGs please, we are dying , need more recruits)
Borderlands (yeah same as above, kinda)

if all else fails

The Orange Box
Battlefield Bad Company
Halo 3
Modern Warfare 2

He seems to like FPS. Halo 3, CoD4, MW2?

I'm not sure if he's a huge FPS fan, I guess he likes L4D since he got L4D2 but not sure how much he likes the genre. I know he likes sports games, but looks like he has the newer ones.

I know he doesn't really like RPG's and I'm not really looking to broaden his horizon so Fallout 3 is out of the picture, perhaps Borderlands.

Are there any other games on the 360 like Battlefield 1943?
