Alright so I got an awesome job and need your help!

So, last week I got a job at Blockbuster (the UK one didnt go bankrupt and is doing fine) and one pretty sweet perk is 10 free game/film rentals a week! (plus I can borrow two pre-owned games each week and keep them for a week). Apart from the borrowed ones, I have the games for only two nights, and cannot rent anything out within the first two weeks of release...

I haven't been able to play my Xbox for the first year of uni so I lost track of games over the past year, could you all recommend some 360 games I need to try? Different genres all needed so I can advise customers!

(also get discount on new games so any future ones to BUY or wait and rent for free?

)

Bulletstorm. Done by a studio that Epic Games bought, so it's kind of similar to Gears of War, only more awesome than that. Arcade-ish FPS, parodies the entire space marine genre, and appeals to the humor of a 14 year old. Recommend it to any customer checking out an anime, because the main character is voiced by Steve Blum.

Skyrim should be the first on your list.

Had considered this, although being 19 I no longer have a 14 year old sense of humour, and there is no anime section in my store

Tanks, I already own Skyrim

This is really all you needed to say.

Dragon's Dogma is the only console exclusive that I think has been worth anything. Good customization, fun game play, and quiet a bit of re-playable.

Dark souls is okay, but only if you like that kind of game. I found it to just not be fun, and the difficulty felt really artificial.

Have looked at Dragon's Dogma but never heard of Dark Souls, what sort of game is it?

I currently have Lord of the Rings War in the North out, and SW: The Force Unleashed 2 is possibly on my list for next

Ridiculously difficult dungeon crawling game.

i really enjoyed bioshock. and i want to get tekken 6. maybe in october you might get assassins creed 3?(if your into that)

Can't believe I forgot this. If you have a PC that can run it, Portal 2.

Riptide · **Posted:** July 15th, 2012, 2:34 pm

Sonic Generations. And apparently, there's also a console version of Dungeon Defenders. Also the Assassin's Creed series.

Xbox only. Not interested in Assassins Creed or Bioshock really, and heard terrible things from colleagues about sonic generations :/

Already played Tekken 6 though

Borderlands then? I've only played it on co-op, but it's pretty good.

Played it when it first came out and loved it (although I may re-rent for a few nights) and can't wait for the second!
