There's like, only one good game you're interested in buying.

This is what SHOULD be your list:

Retail:
Fallout 3
Gears of War 2
Rock Band 2
Fable 2
The Orange Box

Downloadable:
Small Arms
Geometry Wars 2 (If that's the correct name)
Lumines Live!
A bunch of Rock Band songs

Yeah, Aegis Wing is good fun for free. Plus, you can get the achievements... I think I have 9/12 of them, so that's almost 200 free Gamerscore right there. Hexic is cool too, since it comes with your 360.

Whaaaat? One good game...? Blasphemy, man, blasphemy. We don't know if Banjo and Viva 2 will be any good, but chances are, they'll be great. And don't tell me SCIV is bad... Beautiful Katamari, eh, it's a love-it-or-hate-it game. I fall into the former category.

Fallout 3 - Haven't played the others, will I still understand the story?
Gears of War 2, Rock Band 2 - As previously said... I'm not interested.
Fable 2 - Maybe.
The Orange Box - Definite buy, but for later.

Rock Band is bleh in my opinion. I think Gengar will agree with me here...

DO NOT get Orange Box on 360...

Seriously.

HUGE waste if you can run it on your new laptop.

We get free update packs all the time on PC and patches weekly... you won't get that on the 360. Plus it's full of exploits and none of the new maps or updates that exist on PC right now are on it...

And if any of them do come to the 360 someday, you'll be paying for something PC users get and expect for free.

On TF2 that is, which is the real value of OB.

I said that because I'm mostly interested in senselessly violent games.

With Fallout 3, here's all you need to know-

1: Post-apocalyptic setting
2: Oblivion with guns and 1,000,000 times more badass

BTW, you can get it cheaper for $40 instead on PC via Steam...

Steam is waaaay cool anyways.

Well, that's the thing... I'm not. :'(

Though Fallout 3 does sound interesting. The 3 is kinda intimidating though... you sure I'll understand everything without playing the other games?

@ Fear - Yeah, actually, this is why I'm waiting on getting Orange Box. If I can run it on my laptop, that's where I'm gonna be playing it on. But since Black Friday isn't anytime soon, the deals haven't leaked yet, so I'm not 100% sure about the specs n'stuff.
