I think the first question is, do you have Live? Or are you going to get Live in the near future? If the answer is yes, then you may want to consider getting a game where you can take advantage of that online play while you have it. I think the One came with like 1 free month of the service, right?
You are also entitled to two free downloadable Games with Gold games if you have Live. I highly suggest taking advantage of that, since Super Time Force is still available, and is a pretty great little game.
I've been enjoying Dead Rising 3 quite a bit since I got it the other week, I'd have to say it's a lot better than the first one. It has co-op but I haven't messed with that so far. It's a good single-player game, though.
I also have Plants VS Zombies Garden Warfare. It has its moments, but the entire game is online-only, which can be a bummer if your Live expires. Admittedly, haven't been playing it much the last couple of weeks, but I'm gonna try to keep it around just in case. I'm not sure how much attention it will get from me once Master Chief Collection comes out, though! EA keeps supporting the game with free DLC and new game modes every couple of months, and the game itself is cheaper than most other One games, so it's a nice value.
I was also enjoying Halo: Spartan Assault quite a bit, but I haven't played it in a few months. It's only $10 and is an updated port of a Windows Mobile game, but it was actually kind of a blast to play because it honestly felt like top-down Halo, and it was nice to try to get high scores with the skulls activated. I don't know how long it'll hold your attention for, but if you have a few extra bucks then it's worth checking out. I'd recommend looking for Twitch broadcasts of the game or something if you are curious about it.
