You've made a good choice by denying Halo. Or maybe not, it seems everyone in the world thinks it's the holy grail of FPS' but me.

I would say Morrowind for sure. But rent Fable. You may love it or find it boring. So to be on the safe side, rent it or borrow Fable before you buy it.

But you must definitely get SW: KOTOR though. That's a must. I think it's actually illegal to own an X-Box unit without having that game.

i really dont see whats so great about it, the story is a rip off of enders game, and it looks stupid.

i want to try out house of the dead 3, since you dont need a light gun for it, and its probably about 20 bucks by now...
and i am getting KOTOR, i was getting the pc version, but decided to wait since the xbox version is ten bucks cheaper

also, does the xbox need memory cards? ive seen something like that in controllers,m but i heard that the memory is stored on the xbox too...

Doesn't need any memory cards. The reason why the XBox is heavier than other systems is the HD. (Gotta love the HD)

I would try Halo if I was getting an XBox, but that's just me...

Other than that, I have no clue what game to get...

Not Halo aye?

Alright go for Halo 2 next week then.

But other than that, the Xbox does have a good amount of games. I'd say if you're a fan of fighting games that revolve heavily around a grapple system, try out one of the Dead or Alive games, and yesterday Dead or Alive: Ultimate released. (Which is a remake of DOA 1 and 2 and provides online play with Live, very nice.)

Fable would be a good pick too, but I still reside on the fact that I personally wouldn't pay 50$ for it, it's just way too short for that amount of money I'd say ... but if it get's cheaper anytime soon, I'd say check it out.

Ninja Gaiden if you're a fan of action / adventure games, although with this game expect a bitch-challenge.

And if you like GTA there is a Double Pack which includes GTA 3 and Vice City, with somewhat upgraded graphics, and the ability to listen to your own soundtracks. (Again, why the HD is so awesome. )

That's just a few suggestions for you.

I haven't actually played, but I hear the stadiums are photorealistic, and people can pick out where they sat and stuff.

They are photo realistic, if youve been to one, you can notice the detail that has gone into making the game, the stadium where the BSU broncos play even has the blue astroturf(yuck), and the kibbie dome looks just like it did when i went there this spring with my sister to register for college.

OSU looks the same too.

I dont know about the pick where you sit thing, but there are fan animations, and if you play on a holiday, they will have signs that say :"Happy (insert holiday here)!"
i just found out about that yesterday when playing a mascot game...

Hey hey, here's a pretty sweet deal right here.
Splinter Cell, Ghost Recon, and Rainbow 6 all for 40 bucks.
