Finally moved on from my PS2. I figure I got a pretty good deal in addition to the recent price drop. Amazon was offering a $60 gift card (basically enough for a new game) with the Elite version plus they don't charge tax for Arizonans (probably another $35).

I borrowed Assassin's Creed and bought Madded 09. Played one game on Madden and didn't like it that much (the game, the console is great). Maybe it's just that I have to get used to the Xbox controller. I've been on a PS2 til now.

I didn't like Madden 09 either. I could never convert to the xbox controller,thank goodness i didn't have too;).
Congrats on your new toy.

Depending upon your genre of choice, you should have a pretty good catalogue of inexpensive games to choose from at this point. You could probably get all three Halos for around the price of a new game. COD4 has been mentioned. Gears of War is great fun and should be cheap. And those are just a few of the great FPSes available.

F.E.A.R. is a good one as well.

Heck, I should sell you all of the titles I have for next to nothing since I'm pretty much stuck on RB right now.

I went by Gamestop the other day and saw some cheap used games. Might have to go that route for awhile after spending money on the accessories. Darn wireless internet adapter :bang:

Congrats. My brother in law and one of my nephews just bought a 360 thanks to the price drop. They both had a field day at the used game store calling me for recommendations. The 360 has a great game library and there are lots of used games at decent prices now because of it.

I downloaded the demo and it was so good that I bought it.

I also have Call of Duty 2, Two Worlds, and Guitar Hero 3. I also bought Fable for the original Xbox because I'm getting Fable 2 when it comes out and I wanted to play through the first one.
