What awesome older games for the 360 would people recommend? I need something good, and just finished Deus Ex recently (it's the only game I've bought new in months).

Resident Evil 5. I've played through this game so many times now and I still enjoy it.

Resident Evil 4 is now on XBLA. It's exactly like Resident Evil 5, except single player. Play both of them, they're great.

Fallout 3 GotY Edition. It's cheap now.

Fallout New Vegas. You can pass on the first 2 DLCs. Old World Blues is good, and I haven't played Lonesome Road yet so I can't comment on that. The GotY edition of New Vegas is coming out soon, but you don't really need the first 2 DLCs so you should just buy the regular game for $20 and get a DLC or 2 and end up paying less than the GotY edition.

Halo: ODST

Halo Wars

Halo 3

Gears of War 1 is like $10 used at Gamestop. The campaign is fun, although the multiplayer is just a laggy inconsistent shotgun fest. Would have been cool if the game was based around actually using the cover system instead of shrugging off whole assault rifles magazines while sprinting up to someone to 1 shot kill them with the shotgun. Imagine if the only weapons in Halo were the Plasma Rifle and the Shotgun, one useless gun that tickles your opponent and one that one hit kills everything within 10 feet of you. That's pretty much what Gears' multiplayer is.
