My Top 5 Favorite Games for the XBox 360

21 August 2009 One Comment

Because 10 is too many!

Now that Xbox live is offering games on demand I thought I would share my top 10 favorite Xbox 360 games. Remember, it’s only an opinion and I refer role playing games (RPG). You may prefer racing simulators like Kun, everyones different. So please don’t give me too much of a hard time for my selection, after all I am a 37 year old woman!

5. Rock Band

Because it’s good clean fun and I know all of the music!I often download new track from Xbox live and its great to have around at a party. I reccommend  the drum kit ( I got it as a wedding present).

4. The Darkness

OK, Ok – so The Darkness is not in any way revolutionary.  But it did manage to keep me on the edge of my seat and scared the beejezzus out of me at some stages, although hardcore horror gamers will not agree.  I has a decent storyline and the gameplay is easy. A good shooter with a storyline , excellent in game graphics and voice acting.

3. The Lego Games Indiana Jones & Batman

I love these games. The they are great for kids, no blood – everything just breaks up into Lego pieces.  The games are fun puzzle adventures for all ages. But I have gotten really stuck on some of the puzzles. I particularly liked the Indiana Jones game.

2.  Assassin’s Creed

I finished Assassin’s Creed and swapped it out (for Stuntman Ignition, d’oh) and I was sorry I got rid of it straight away.  I really think this game is visually extraordinary. Even though it is a bit repetitive and glitchy, the graphics are excellent. The storyline is well thought out and compelling . I have recently re-purchased this game on Xbox live and am enjoying it more than the first time.

I can’t wait for Assassin’s Creed 2, due out in November.

1. Oblivion – The Elder Scrolls IV

My undefeated favorite game.  Oblivion – The Elder Scrolls is one of those games that almost never ends. I put a ridiculous amount of time into this game, time I will never get back! The game (almost) has no boarders and you can wander around endlessly completing tasks and growing skill. There are side quests as well as the main quest and you can pick and choose what to do and when to do it. I highly recommend this game but be warned the voice overs are sometimes cringe worthy. For it’s time – not that long ago, this game was revolutionary.

It would be great if the guys at  Betheseda Softworks made some more, pleeeease!
