Default Got an Xbox 360. Looking for game suggestions.

Alright so heres the story. Found a used Xbox 360 for a reasonable price and decided to get it. Only thing is that the disk drive tends to not want to open. Im not too concerned with that though. Now that I have one Im wondering what games are good? It already has GTA IV which I love. I plan on getting Forza 4 and Forza Horizon soon. What other games would you guys and gals suggest?

I wasn't a big fan of Forza Horizon.

Forza 4 took all of my free time, until I got a wheel setup for my PS3.

Forza 4 is real fun.
Need for speed most wanted is really fun as well
And of course call of Duty: Black Ops 2

Those are the ones that take up all my free time

Im looking at Forza 4 games right now and I keep seeing the Essentials Edition. Is that the full one or only part of it? Read somewhere that you didnt get all the cars with it.

The full retail version has a second disc (install only) full of extra cars, 200 or more of them.

The Essentials Edition does NOT have that second disc, only disc 1. The only way to "upgrade" it to a full version is to buy the disc 2 content in chunks on the Marketplace, and it's ridiculously expensive there.

All of the DLC will work perfectly well with either version.

I wouldnt buy Forza Horizon i got it and its to short of a game, COD games are always a good choice, thats about all i play on mine, i did buy the new nascar game but it was a huge waste of money

I'd say get an Assassins Creed game. I've been playing the third one recently and that has been consuming most of my time Oh yeah, don't get Forza Horizon. It's fun for like the first day that you play it, waste of money.. But Forza 4 is amazing!

I've heard Halo 4 is awesome. I haven't played it though, don't have much time for games. But when I do, it's NBA 2k13 or WWE '13. Anyone that wants to add me feel free, SN is Beech House
