CAGiversary!
Just curious as I've almost exhausted the 360 games I own and it's easy/cheap to buy old xbox games than spend $ on 360 games. Games on 360 I played and enjoyed: GRAW 1&2, SC Double Agent, Bioshock, COD4, Timeshift, Fear, Gears, Halo 3, Stranglehold, and Darkness. Rainbow six vegas is next game then I'm out. I was thinking of getting Black and Splinter cell chaos theory. I'm not into RPGs. Any other suggestions?
 
Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
No joke, that game is all kinds of awesome.

Keep in mind I'm talking about the Xbox exclusive, NOT Chaos Bleeds. Chaos Bleeds was good, but the original was so much better. It's an awesome game and I'm very happy I have a chance to recommend it right now :D
 
Some very good under the radar shooters are Raze's Hell and Metal Arms: Glitch in the System.

Raze's Hell includes a very fun co-op campaign mode that helps tone down the game's high difficulty.

Metal Arms plays kind of like a third-person Halo with the sharp wit of Psychonauts. It has great graphics, unique weapons, good challenge, and a VERY long and satisfying campaign mode. The game has between 40 and 50 missions, most quite lengthy and fun.
It also has a fun deathmatch for four players. If it had been online it would've been truly great.

I'll second this. I've never seen the show or anything, but I bought this one on a whim (4.99) and I actually had a LOT of fun with it. It's pretty good.

Metal Arms is great as well. Can't speak on Raze's Hell, don't have it yet, but am looking forward to getting it.

I liked Cold Fear. It's kinda like a poor man's RE4.

Apart from that.. Breakdown, Kill.Switch, Prince of Persia SoT, Stubbs The Zombie, Area 51, Metal Slug 3, 4 and 5, Project Snowblind, Urban Chaos: Riot Response (one of my top favorites on XBox), and Soldier of Fortune 2.
 
Thanks for the suggestions, I'm hitting gamestop tomorrow to pick up some oldies. I'll look into some of the ones you guys mentioned. Splinter cell chaos theory is only $6 so I'm definitely getting that. Buffy got an 8.2 on ign so looks like another good pickup. I played urban chaos on ps2, don't think I finished it but it was underrated.
 
[quote name='kobeisgod']Played Doom 3 on the PC. I think I'm too much of a chicken to try to tackle Ninja Gaiden. :)[/QUOTE]

Ninja Gaiden is awesome...don't pass it up.
 
The above mentioned Crimson Skies and Metal Arms are both really good.
The first Halo was great
Beyond Good and Evil if you've never played that
The first Star Wars KOTOR is still one of my favorite games ever
And if you want one more, maybe Prince of Persia Sands of Time.
 
Ninja Gaiden, Crimson Skies, Metal Arms, Beyond Good and Evil, Prince of Persia, Conker: Live and Reloaded, Fable: The Lost Chapters, Fatal Frame and Fatal Frame II, GTA III, Star Wars: Battlefront 2, Halo, Halo 2, GTA III, GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas, Jade Empire, Knights of the Old Republic, Breakdown, Jet Set Radio Future, Indigo Prophecy, Max Payne and Max Payne 2, Mercenaries, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, Phantom Dust, Pariah, BLACK, Serious Sam, Scarface, Silent Hill 4, Shenmue II, Sonic Mega Collection Plus, XIII, Soul Calibur 2, Splinter Cell, Stubbs the Zombie, The Suffering, Thief: Deadly Shadows, Worms 3D
 
I second Hulk Ultimate Destruction and It is backwards compatiable. Another good game would be armed and dangerous I thought that game was hilarious and not a bad shooter to boot.
