XBOX Games...

[JonathonWally]

To add on to the list.

Rainbow Six 3
Rainbow Six 3 Black Arrow, avoid the third one

All the Splinter Cell games are excellent
Ninja Gaiden was sweet
a Tony Hawk game is always good, "I'm bored out of my mind and can't think of anything to do" games
Chronicles of Riddick was excellent
Another vote for Crimson Skies
Max Payne, great game game.

Jet Set Radio Future, Shenmue II, and Panzer Dragoon Orta are my favourite Xbox games, and they all got very favourable critical reactions. If you were just going to pick one though, I'd highly recommend JSRF.

There are some multiplatform games you might like to try too,unless you already played them on PC: Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy is amazing, and so are Beyond Good & Evil, and Jade Empire.

I was thinking about Shenmue 2 as well, but it's gonna suck playing that without Shenmue one. Beyond Good and Evil is a good pick too, especially since the sequel was just announced

Oh, I forgot about Destroy All Humans! I've only played #2 but it was tons of fun!
