The Command and Conquer 3 demo was amazing and is an RTS i could see myself playing. Also i thought Saints Row was amazing and the best sandbox game i've ever played i liked the mission and gameplay better than GTA

1. Viva Pinata (curious where they will take DLC over time)

2. Kameo

3. EDF 2017 (ONLY if you like old school shooters combined with terrible Creature Double Feature cheese fest) as a rental only and better played with a friend. 

4. Ridge Racer 6 (17 bucks)

"Just Cause" at first i didnt like it at all but when i started gettin in the air with helicopters and planes the game kicks ass (got all 1000 achivement points in 4 days non stop play), and the c&c 3 demo blow me away, most demo's just depressed me (splinter cell:DA is nothing like chaos or pandora tomorrow, but i still own it) but because of that demo im without a doubt getting it.

Easily for me it was Crackdown. The game didnt recieve the score I thought it would get but to play that game on my 40 in flat panel lcd 720p tv is just amazing. I just couldnt believe the amount of detail thats in that game untill I bought my current televison. Open ended exploration, explosions are like WHOAH, you feel like your actually cleaning up the city and the sound effects are amazing.

I have loved this game since launch.  :D

I think that Test Drive Unlimited really surprised me.  I dont really get into racing games, but with all the things that there are to do and accomplish it became addictive.  All the cars, houses, and clothes to buy kept me racing over and over to earn money. Also with xboxlive it was like living on a huge virtual Island because anybody that was playing the game at the same time would be riding around as if eveyone lived in the game.

I would also have to say Castlevania SOTN for xbl arcade because I never played the Castlevania games.  I have played that thing hours and hours on end I have already gotten two different endings and now I am going back to try and get a 206% completion.  Then I will have to go through it again as Richter.  So much replay value.

Saints Row.

Like many I figured... " GTA Wannabe. "

But after playing it for 20 hours and not realizing it(not 20 hours straight) I found out it's a great game and adds an aspect that GTA hasnt tapped. Insurance Fraud, Loan Sharking and the ability to start hold ups and steal from safes.

Yeah. Bullet Witch is one of the most underrated games on the system. The problem is that the first level is pretty lame and that she doesn't have any of her good powers yet and it takes time to get them and most people probably quit after this. Bullet Witch really reminds me of Shadowman or or something similar. The best is the concept missions where you can use all of Alicia's powers out of the gate and with later villians in earlier levels.

It's cool too seeing a few people mentioning Earth Defense Force 2017 too. I actually felt it was going to be awesome way before it came out. I'd like to see more budget titles of this calibur in the future(fingers crossed).

Earth Defense Force 2017. I thought it was going to be an awful budget game, but it's a complete blast to play.

I always thought Gears of War was going to be terrible, and just be a repetitive shooter (which some people do believe), but it turned out to be one of my favorite games for the system!

Oblivion. Morrowind bored the hell out of me because of the boring and lifeless environments but this game is much more enjoyable.

gun - though the graphics were crap i couldn't help liking the story. it was pretty fun, just shouldn't have been a 360 game.

Enchanted arms - i didnt know what to expect from this game, but it blew me away. aside from the bad voice acting at times it was really fun and just what i needed. probably one of my favorite games on the system!

That game shocked me for how good it played on 360.
