My brother recently got a 360 Elite. And only games he got for it was Lego Batman and Pure.

What are some other good games that the 360 has? And no, I don't like Halo, I like Halo as much as i JUST LOVE De_dust/2. Cause i don't.


Can anyone give out some 2-player games? also does the 360 have backward compatibility?

I've not got an XBOX360 but there are some multi-platform games you could have a look at.


Dirt2 is a really good off road racer, pretty sure it will have split screen multiplayer as well as online play and career mode.


Borderlands is good. It's a FPS with elements of RPG games like levels, different classes and tons of different weapons with different abilities. You can also play it 2 player split screen and online with upto 4 players. Cartoonish graphics aren't something a few people like but I quite like how it looks. *edit* I guess you'll know about this game as you're currently playing on PC .


Saints Row 2 I liked and you should be able to pick it up cheaply. It's pretty much a GTA clone but has more customisation and a more fun approach than GTAIV, tophats, mankinis plus a lot of mini challenges and things to find.

I actually might get Gears of war 2, Me and my older brother played about a good hour and a half on that. Though i might check out Army of 2 as well.


Though, Saints row 2 sounds intriguing though.

I found a couple of sites that list various games multiplayer options, the wiki one seems a bit out of date.

Earth Defense Force 2017 might be worth a look if you can find it cheap. It's a low budget 3rd person shooter where you battle wave after wave of invading B movie monsters from giant spiders to flying saucers and War of the Worlds style mechanical walkers. I played it on the PS2 and it was good split screen fun, there is just something about blowing up tons of giant monsters with big guns that is really enjoyable. It's not perfect but it got some pretty good reviews on amazon and it kept me and my brother entertained for a while.

My son didn't care for HALO either but now he has HALO 3 and HALO 3 ODST. The previous posts mention Borderland and Saints Row 2 and they're pretty good as well. Assassin's Creed/2 and Left for Dead/2 are good series. Who can leave out Modern Warfare 2 . . .

I'm just listing from the titles I have on my floor right now, but:
1. Halo 3 (Have you tried it out?)
2. GTA IV
3. Saint's Row or Saint's Row II
4. Gears of War or Gears of War II
5. CoD4 or Modern Warfare II
6. Halo 3: ODST


That's all.


These are my favorite.

Well i have a pretty good idea of what games i'm gonna pick up, It's gonna come down to either Too Humen, Gears of war 2, Dead or Alive 4, or brutal legend.
