PostGRecommends: Top 10 Xbox 360 games (Results revealed, p3)

Missed the previous GRecommends? You can find a list of previous votes and results in this carefully prepared document

As we already have a genre-base GRecommends running (still plenty of time to vote if you haven’t already), I thought we’d do something different this month.

So it’s the welcome return of GRecommends by platform, and we’re kicking things off with the Xbox 360.

Image

Need some reminding of the contenders? Here’s a list of Xbox 360 games.

As always just list your top 10 below (each counts for one vote, so ranking them isn't important).

Voting is open for a month and closes on 28 October.

I look forward to seeing your nominations.

(Before anyone points it out, I know games are still being released for the Xbox 360, but the console itself was discontinued on 20 April this year.

Oh boy! Celer, dude... you're really testing us now! Selecting ten games from such a superb catalogue is going to be tough but fun!

Just to point out the list you linked to is presumably a list of physical games, its definitely not complete anyway.

My list is definitely going to include Rez HD and Sensible World of Soccer.

Hmm, I guess we can include multiplatforms, which for me makes it "favourite games which happened to also be on 360" as well as a few exclusives.

Saints Row 4
Forza Horizon 2
Deadly Premonition
Assassin's Creed II
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
Darksiders
Trials Evolution
Alan Wake
Condemned: Criminal Origins
Spec Ops: The Line

This is actually really hard to decide. I need to get rid of one game from the list I made and don't want to.

This makes it tricky so I'll only include multiplatform titles if there's no PC version or I wouldn't mind playing the 360 version.

Interesting.

Personally I think I'll have to include GTA V on the list. The fact that game works on 360/PS3 is amazing in itself, you can't deny its quality. So despite superior PC/Xbox One/PS4 versions existing it will go on my list.

1 - Fallout 3
2 - Portal 2
3 - Portal
4 - Fallout: New Vegas
5 - Deadly Premonition
6 - Bioshock Infinite
7 - Dragon Age: Origins
8 - Fez

I just haven't played other games for long enough to justify me placing them on my list.

Yes, I know. I couldn't find a full list that was neatly presented.

Of course, it's just a list of the top 10 games on the platform, irrespective if they are on other platforms (and you can vote for them when they come round on others too).

What was the title that didn't make the cut?

My list is:
  1. Perfect Dark 64 XBLA
  2. Tales of Versperia
  3. Outrun Arcade Online
  4. Dark Souls (it's so damn good that I'd put up with the framerate problems)
  5. Dragon Age: Origins (I can't remember how this performs in terms of framerate but it kept me hooked for 65 hours so it has to be included)
  6. Dishonored
  7. Trine 2
  8. Crackdown
  9. Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
  10. Mark of the Ninja

Jesus, it's hard to narrow it down to 10. It has such a fantastic library. I'll be adding these as they pop into my head.

Mass Effect 2
Gears 3
Dishonored
Fallout 3
Fallout New Vegas
Just Cause 2
Dark Souls
PGR4
Vanquish
Bayonetta

What does that mean? Do you mean console exclusives i.e. they're on PC too but no console other than the 360?

And yet you have picked two Nintendo 64 games ;) No problem though – if those are the 10 you want, that's fine.

I think it is definitely worth including multi-platform games, because there isn't going to be a separate list for those.

My top 10:

• Red Dead Redemption
• BioShock
• Dead Space
• Pac-Man Championship Edition DX
• Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2
• Need for Speed: Most Wanted
• Batman: Arkham Asylum
• Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
• Left 4 Dead
• LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

Mass effect 2
Dragon age origins
