Best current 360 title?

I am going to get my first 360 title today. I like all genres so that is not an issue. but which game has the greatest fun factor with the least amount of bugs (crashing and the sort)

only want to get one since doa 4 is a must buy.
 
So far I have had the most pure fun with NFS: Most Wanted. Of the three driving games available I think it has the most all-round enjoyment.
 
Right now the one I play the most is probably NBA 2k6 :lol I use to play the PS2 version to death and the 360ver is a very nice upgrade overall.

PDzero is probably second on the list right now, with Madden 3rd for me (It really is stupidly easy to throw bombs in that game.....Kyle Orton has 50 touchdowns 12 games into the season in my francise :lol). PGR3 I haven't really gotten to yet though but it did feel pretty good just running a practice lap.
 
If you can only afford to get one, IMO you should get Call of Duty 2. I have played a lot of the initial 360 titles and it is the one I keep coming back to.
 
So far nothing has impressed me on 360 but namco with frame city killer and they football game really starting to show how much of a beast the console is!
 
PDZ is actually a really great game..

- single is kind of like goldeneye.. oldschool fun

- multi is great, especially the dark ops mode (only topped by halo 2 on console actually)
 
Well I only got to put extensive time into Call of Duty 2, PDZ, Kameo and PGR3, but Call of Duty 2 and PGR3 were by far, far, far the best.

However, I'll pretend I'm posting from the future and say "Oblivion."

That's just plain mean. And didn't you hear? It's all Kutaragi's sons doing.
 
I'm gonna say Condemned as well, a very fun game. I just got CoD2 and I'm really liking it too. Question, I heard there's a big bug in the game, is there any way I can avoid it, or is it luck of the draw?
 
Best game when you have more than an hour to play: Call of Duty 2 (single player)
Best game when you have 15 minutes to play: Geometry Wars 2
 
pdz is REALLY hit and miss with a lot of people..so if your strapped for cash, dont take the risk (personally i love it)


pgr3=loved by nearly all
condemned=also
cant go wrong with those


RR6 is also great
 
My impressions are without having xbox live and being a single player

Perfect Dark 0 and PGR3 are going back to the store on wednesday in trade for DOA4 (they just simply don't last for 1P)

COD2
NFS:MW
NBA2k6
NHL2k6

All of these are great and are not getting traded from my collection....

These are my feelings also, If your an online junkie then most of the launch line up Is for you. If your looking for a single player experience then:
COD2
CONDEMNED
KAMEO
 
Project Gotham Racing 3



This game looks so damn nice and it's fun online. Pretty much unlimited replayability if you're competitive in leaderboard rankings since there's a scoreboard for practicallly every event

PGR 3 is nice, but it doesn't have that "draw-you-back" factor that Geometry Wars does. I bit the bullet on the whole microtransactions thing, bought GW, and haven't looked back since OH MY GOD WHAT A FUN GAME.

NBA and NHL 2K6 are also up there, but GW is in a league of its own.
 
The Call of Duty 2 multiplayer modes are either broken or nonexistant and the graphics are overrated. Also it has one of the worst bugs ever, randomly wiping your save file. Its not worth 60 bucks. Kameo is a very good, underrated game with way more value thanks to all the extras. Its one of the best platformers/adventure games in recent memory.
 
I got Kameo and PGR3 for Christmas and damn,the looks and gameplay of these 2 put the other launch titles I've tried to shame.
 
its really a very good launch lineup. There are alot of very good games, but there isnt really a standout AAA title (outside of Geo Wars).. I would say all 7 games that I own (condemned, Ridge Racer 6, PGR3, PD:Z, COD:2, NBA2K6, Kameo) are mid 7.0's to mid 8.0's.

I would say RR6 is my personal favorite, but you cant go wrong with any of them.
 
I got PDZ and PGR3 with my 360. Both Kameo and Condemned seem excellent rental material. CoD2 is impressive-ish and I've been told has good-decent non-online multiplayer, but honestly I'd be fine never playing a WWII game again and the sparse bitching on here about how buggy it can get pushed me over the line.
