I ended up with some extra cash a few months ago, so I sprung for a 360.
I'm too cheap to buy a lot of games (I always wait till they go way down in price) And I had my regular X Box games, But I wanted to get one new game.
I heard a lot of people say that Gears of War was the best X Box 360 game. Personally I'm not super impressed. I don't love the game play, I hate the grenade handling, and the whole game is grey. (I am constantly shooting my own people--they look the same as the bad guys)
The graphics are phenomenal, and it is a decent game... but I would have rather waited and paid $30 instead of the initial $70.
So what is the best game?
I have not played it before, but almost everyone I know loves
Guitar Hero II! Also you can see the critics Top Xbox 360 Games at
Metacritic.

Well you already mentioned Gears of War so besides that my very favorite games for the Xbox 360 are as follows:
1.
Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 22.
Burnout Revenge3
Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter4.
Forza 2 (with racing wheel)
5.
Viva Pinata (my wife even loves this one

)
6.
Tony Hawk Project 8 (If you are fan of the Tony Hawk series this one is the best.

)
7.
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion8.
Call of Duty 29.
Rainbow Six: Vegas10.
Lost Planet 11.
NBA Street HomecourtThe great thing about the above list is that all of these games have a demo on Xbox Live. Also the majority of them can be found for around $30!

Upcoming Games I am most excited for:
1.
Medal of Honor: Airborne2.
Burnout Paradise3.
Battlefield: Bad Company4.
Virtua Fighter 55.
Bioshock6.
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 (Photo Game Face

)
7.
Call of Duty 4: Modern WarfareHalo 3....meh.

Maybe I will get it.
