It’s getting to be that time of year again, the holidays are right around the corner and that means a lot of people are going to be getting game consoles. Currently it’s a great time to purchase a new console, they are cheap enough to own all of the current consoles out right now. Someone I know is actually new to the Xbox 360 and doesn’t know all of the quality titles that it has to offer, so I figured I’d come up with a list that would be a good reference for everyone. Keep in mind that these are strictly my opinion and you might not like these games as much as I did, but I believe them all to be worth owning an Xbox 360 for. This is a top ten list, so I will start at ten and work my way up. I will try to change my list up a bit, I realize the Xbox 360 is rumored to be the “first person shooter” console, but I can safely say it has a wide variety of game genres.
Bit-Tech: Perhaps the biggest surprise was that the tide of console gamers is a cultural phenomenon which does not appear to cross every border. According to NPD's research, while the UK has the highest incidence of console usage out of all the markets analysed Germany boasts the biggest number of PC gamers.
France, meanwhile, is clinging on to dedicated hand-held consoles like the Nintendo 3DS and Sony PlayStation Portable at a time when NPD's analysis shows that gamers in most other nations have ditched theirs in favour of getting their portable gaming fixes on smartphones and tablets.

you mean like japan, europe or the US where the 3ds is breaking records?
People are ditching the 3DS so fast in the US, 3ds sales have doubled over ds first year sales and the year isnt even over.
No source, no truth
who approved this garbage?
but 250 million global online PC Gamers say other wise.
Everyone with a Gaming PC can play Wii Games so does that mean the world is a Wii Nation?
I think people just enjoy Games and it really doesn't matter the platform.
Console Nation, PC Universe, iPhone Realm, doesn't matter just enjoy your Games.
Considering most PC Gamers will own 1 or more consoles , declaring the UK as a "console nation" is complete and utter bollox.
owning a console and playing the occasional game once in a blue moon doesnt make you a console gamer. Just like owning a pc and maybe playing some random flash game doesnt make you a pc gamer. Alot of pc gamers bought ps3s, its a blu-ray player and media hub that plays games.
I'm from the UK and game on nearly every platform I can think of.
But yes in general I'm more thumbs than fingers when It comes to my games.
Remember in December of last year when Paul Christoforo became the pariah of the internet? Ocean Marketing was at the center of a scandal that took the internet by storm after Christoforo exchanged rude, angry emails with a customer of Avenge Controllers, for whom Christoforo was providing customer service. I recently had the chance to speak with Paul about the whole ordeal and what his life has been like since.
With the upcoming release of the Star Wars Themed Console, GameExchangeShop.com takes a look at reasons to get excited for the game and looks of the console.
That does look sick and the sound is even more awesome. Too bad the darn Xbox 360 is so expensive still.
When the Wii U drops the xbox prices will take a serious nose dive. Hopefully they still have that particular one floating around retail.
Why Gears 3 without 1 and 2? It's a storyline that should be played together.
Good list.
I would have included Halo 3 though as well due to the fact that it still features an impressive amount of players daily, is still fun and is dirt cheap to pick up. I love Reach though too.
Agreed 100% that Gears should be played as a trilogy with Gears 3 being the must-have.
if YOU'RE new.....
The article has it right, the title here is wrong.
Here is some help:
