Well i've stopped playing all video games personally..kinda lol

I haven't really been keeping up with any games, although I usually play Halo till all hours of the night with friends once a week or so.

So i'm looking for some xbox games for my parents to buy me. I can easily borrow a friend's console for extended periods of time, they only really use them during those halo-fests.

what games can i cheaply buy, and where do u suggest i buy them? (im thinking lots of games on ebay) Im looking for about 5-10 xbox games, cheap hopefully

what are older xbox games i should look for?
FPS, i'll probably get a football game. basically anything good
 
soul caliber 2 and 3
latest tony hawk
mech warriors
need for speed
halo 2

just go look around

not sure if your going to be able to get them that cheap without modding the xbox
 
I just bought a few just a week ago, and have been loving all 3 of them :D

Blitz the league - A sports game done right!
Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath - A very interesting, and in the end a very fun game, I definatly enjoy playing it very much
Black - One of the best FPS's on the Xbox in my opinion, except one very large and glaring flaw, NO MULTIPLAYER!

But there are many other ones that are great on the xbox, buy used from gamestop/EBgames and you will be just fine. :D
 
I normally only play one game at a time. But since the 360 came out, here are the ones that were most fun for me.

Soul caliber-this game by far has the best eye candy
That table tennis game. I forget what it is called.
and recently rainbow six.

I haven't been playing my 360 much.

also, 4 player multiplayer games are a big plus, as well as being able to link with other boxes
