Holiday Buyers Guide 2011 - Top Xbox 360 Games »



After the break you'll find a list of the must have Xbox 360 games.

Dance Central 2: Dance Central 2 offers huge improvements over the original title. Adding in simultaneous multiplayer, dance battle mode, and even a story mode, everyone in the family will be able to get their groove on.

Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary: Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary is the perfect gift for nostalgic Halo fans. It's an upgraded version of the original game for the Xbox, adding new maps, better multiplayer, and an awesome feature that lets you switch back and forth between the old version of the game and the newer one. It's classic Halo with a fresh feel.

Forza Motorsport 4: Hailed as the best racing game for the Xbox 360, Forza Motorsport 4 truly is the king of the road. It's full of small touches that add endless amounts of dimension in all the right places. Plus, there's a sweet mode called Autovista that lets you explore the ins and outs of vehicles that you'll never be able to afford. 

Gears of War 3
: Gears of War 3 offers pulse-pounding third person shooter action in outrageous ways that we absolutely love. Along with a stellar single-player campaign, the game offers various multiplayer modes that will keep you playing for hours on end.

The Gunstringer: The Gunstringer from Twisted Pixel is a Kinect title where you use your body to control an undead marionette. The dialogue is hilarious, and the Kinect works flawlessly to truly immerse you in to this enchanting title.

Kinectimals Now With Bears!: For the little guys on your list, Kinectimals, Now With Bears is a Kinect title that lets you interact with virtual exotic cats or bears. Along with being able to play with, pet, and bathe you bear, you can now go on an all new adventure with it as well. Plus, the game is the most utterly adorable one we've ever seen. Ever.

    Weak year for X-box Exclusives?
    More like fewer came out compared to Sony.
    None of the exclusives that came out, on the upper end were weak, as far as quality.
    The Sony exclusives were average, to bad.
    Except for Uncharted 3, Infamous 2, Ratchet and Clank and Little Big Planet 2.
    Killzone 3, average, Resistance 3 Average, SOCOM 4 Bad
    Already Gears bests all of Sony's shooters.
    Forza 4 is the best racing title this generation, gran turiswhat?
    In my opinion, Microsoft didn't miss on any of their front line exclusives. Meaning their weakest one was good.
    Where as Sony missed on 3.
    Also Uncharted 3, was a good game, not great and the story felt weak compared to other entries.
    Infamous 2, and Little Big Planet 2, were great exclusives though.
    Exclusives in the long run? expect off years because fewer publishers can afford to be exclusive, and also development time itself.
    You will see exclusive aspects of the same game, for one system, but fewer and fewer exclusives will come out, because nobody is making the kind of money the game industry did last generation.
    Will you still have exclusives? yes. However never to the point where every year, a handful of must have games for one system will be out.
    Two year waits is about the average.
    Think Microsoft was weak this year on exclusives? Wait for Sony's exclusives next year, Starhawk, some space MMO and Maybe The Last Guardian. Unless you pay the Money for a Vita, it will be far worse than Microsoft this year and even with the Vita it won't be as good.
    I have a Playstation 3, Wii, and X-box 360.
    In all truth I prefer the PS3 as a system, but the truth is the truth.
