Fable, and er... umm... that's it.
Ninja gadien FTW it was a brilliant game!
yeah, probably Halo 2, Fable, and Ninja Gaiden, though I have to say Munches Oddysee for its time was pretty badass
Tooo many to list MGS2 sunbstance Halo 1 & 2 Splinter Cells Shenmue 2 DOA Ultimate Timesplitters 2 Thief 3..And like many before me have said I own a chiped one with xbmc and it blows any other media player out of the water for the money..At the moment it gets more use than my 360 as some games emulated on the 360 suck..
the several similarities it shared with the dreamcast (internet connection out of the box, controller configuration, windows kernel, sega support, massive homebrew scene) truly made it the spiritual successor to dreamcast for me more than just a new entry to the scene from microsoft. halo proved to me that consoles could do fps, but kotor was probably the game that meant the most to me.
the whole "it's just a gaming computer in console's clothing" was beaten into us time and time again as almost every major hit received a pc release or vice-versa. this philosophy encouraged me to buy an xbox360 last xmas rather than upgrade my graphics card, and i've never regretted it. arcade became a fantastic avenue for lower budget titles and resurrections of classic titles. the video marketplace is cheaper and more convenient than renting from hollybuster. and, access to demos keeps that oxm wrag that used to scratch demo discs out of my house (seriously, how many issues were dedicated to why the "other" consoles sucked?).
Best game?
Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, hands down. An unforgettable experience and a must play for anyone stupid enough to put it off.
Honorable mentions:
Crimson Skies
Stubbs the Zombie
King Kong (don't laugh, yeah the movie SUCKED but this fps rocked!)
Burnout Revenge
Psychonauts
Half Life 2
Halo 2
Aliens vs Predator Extinction
Mortal Kombat Armageddon
There's many more but those are the ones off the top of my head. Best homebrew? Surreal xxx!!!
Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind - one of the best games I've ever played
Star Wars Kotor - I Don't really even like Star Wars but this game kicked ass.
Shenmue 2 - Great Sequal to the best dreamcast game.
NFL 2k5 - Was so good it scarred EA(Madden) into buying out the NFL licence(first time such a thing has ever happened I belive)
Probably Halo 2, and the Killtrocity Map pack.
