I'm getting a brand new 360 for one hundred bucks.

1. Get one of those sexy new smaller 360s if you get a choice in the matter.

2. It would help if you told us what kind of games you are into.

Anyway, you're gonna need $50 to get an XBox Live Gold account. You get access to demos quicker, deals on older DLC and Arcade games, exclusive Gold member downloads and can play online with the likes of us (so very tempting, I know). You do have 1 month free with your XBox, so try it out.

As for games: (I'll keep it to exclusives)

Gears of War 1 & 2 - I KNOW YOU JUST SAID YOU DON'T LIKE SHOOTERS, but fuck me, this game is simply greatness. Great story, great characters, great scripted events and it's 3rd person, not an FPS. Hell, buy it and watch a friend play, just because the story is that good.

Forza Motorsport 2 & 3 - Like Gran Turismo, but for 360

Lips - Singing game. Hella fun, especially 2 players. But the presentation outside of actual gameplay is a little gay.

Fable - Original Xbox title that's backward compatible. 3rd person action RPG set in Albion (medieval England). More tongue in cheek than the previous sentence would indicate. Think Legend of Zelda: OoT but with leveling up and murder and shit.

Fable 2 - The 360 sequel. 346234765 times bigger and better.

Jade Empire - Another Xbox Original. 3rd Person action game, set in Ancient China. BioWare game, so there are 456872345723 million dialog trees and branching story/endings depending on your choices.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2 - Think Jade Empire except Star Wars. Both Xbox Originals.

Dead or Alive 4 - Fighting game. The series that invented boob physics in games. Crazy ass counter system and fast gameplay.

Lost Odyssey - JRPG, done by the guy who invented the Final Fantasy series, so you know what to expect. Sweet ass game.

GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City - The 2 DLC add ons that were 360 exclusive on 1 disc, so you don't have to go rebuy GTA IV if you had it for PS3.

I have all of these games except Forza 3, which I will bargain bin. Sim racers aren't really my bag.

Also, I will recommend some XBox Live Arcade titles later on.
