Top 10 Exclusive Games to Buy Along with the New Xbox 360 S Model

The slimmer and quieter new Xbox 360 S model should bring plenty of new consumers into the Xbox 360 universe. Of course, buying the system won’t mean much without purchasing some games as well. Here are the top 10 exclusive games to buy along with the new Xbox 360 S model.

[TheLeprachaun]

Not a great list all together. There's much better games I'd buy over some of those. I mean, where is Mass Effect 2.

[Rot_in_Fail]

Please tell me this article didnt get approved. People can write and submit whatever they want, this is unacceptable :).

And I'll tell you what, I'm working on my top 10 PS3 exclusives, lmao.

[lochdoun]

Youre an idiot.
Look at all the articles about PS3 exclusives.
You get all upset and angry when you see an article about Xbox Exclsuives.
GET OVER IT.
Go cry some more $ony fanboy troll.

Im SOOO HAPPY this article got approved! ;]
Pleased as punch.

[YoungKiller25]

Mass Effect is not exlcusive its on pc

[georgeenoob]

Console exclusive..

[Dee_91]

oblivion ... just .. lmao

[colonel179]

EXCLUSIVE = NOWHERE ELSE
Why don't Xbox Fanboys understand that? Xbox360 EXCLUSIVE means not anywhere else, not PC, not PS3, not NES, not atari, etc.

Then the article, instead of being, "exclusive games", it would be just "games to play on the 360" omitting completely the word "exclusive"

[ukilnme]

I still don't understand why PS3 Fanboys care so much about a list of games to play on the 360. Still the insecure bunch. LMAO.

[Strikepackage Bravo]

its pretty funny to see all these guys who dont even own 360s, and are freakishly commited to their PS3s, running to point out that Mass Effect is not an exclusive LOL!

Listen suckers, as long as we are talking about console gaming, its exclusive. Nobody gives a bleep about PC, sitting at a desk in front of a PC is for work. I wouldn't play farmville on a PC LOL!

[snesfangirl]

http://n4g.com/news/572640/... not what you sony trolls we're saying a couple days ago in this article!!!

look at the posts, you guys we're saying "another xbox exclusive bites the dust" when talking about left for dead, isn't that on pc as well? "Another xbox exclusive series bites the dust.", supagamer
THOUGHT SO.

wishy washy HYPOCRITES! which way you sony trolls wanna go with this, is it fucking exclusive or is it NOT?!!? or will change ya "mind" FROM ARTICLE TO ARTICLE as usual

hahahahhahahahhaha take a seat sony boys! well i see you guys failed that article, lol knew it would come back and bite you in the ass!

edit to bravo and killnme- you know how they are on n4g. i think the sony boys on here are the biggest "xbots" their are. i mean they are always in 360 articles nitpicking and bullshitting in them.

just admit you sony trolls, you love xbox 360!

[A change in the wind]

It`s funny. I was playing Left 4 Dead on my PC the other day, yet you mean to tell me that it`s a 360 exclusive? Or a "console exclusive?" That`s pathetic. That`s a weak argument made up by 360 fanboys who realized that you don`t even need a 360 to play half of the 360`s best games.

[TheLeprachaun]

Look,like it or not, very few people game on pcs compared to consoles. PCs are a separate market to consoles. People call Halo,Halo 2,Gears of War 360 exclusives yet they're on PC. Xbox 360 is the only console with Mass Effect at this point in time. Not trying to play favourites, as I have every console, and 3 gaming pcs, but I'm not in the majority.

[ALFAxD_CENTAURO]

Word of Exclusive, means for 1 platform. Not 2 or more.

[Dee_91]

just becuase some one point out the fact that ME is on pc that mean they care soooo much about xbox and its exclusives?

they are not fanboys
you just resort to calling every one a fan boy when you get proven wrong and have nothing else to say

[xgodofwar4sss]

WERE MY TOP 10 2010 XBOX360 GAMES? TO GO WITH MY NEW XBOX 360S

[_EvilMonkey_]

my top 10 games to must buy would be... Gears of War 1+2,Mass Effect 1+2,Fable 2,Metro 2033,Halo 3,Halo Wars,Forza 3,and Alan Wake

[YoungKiller25]

Mass Effect is not exlcusive its on pc.,

[georgeenoob]

Console exclusive.

[Infernostew]

Gears 1 isn't exclusive either. It's on PC as well.

[_EvilMonkey_]

Ok, so Mass Effect and Gears of War are not "Exclusive", but there good games to buy with the 360 Slim.

[mrcash]

What does the pc have to do with this article, it's safe to assume that most people that game on consoles don't really play their games on pc, these games are not exclusive to only xbox 360 since they are readily available on pc, however they are not available on any other console...... Console exclusive would be correct..

[jerethdagryphon]

ok heres a little excersise.

i am a ps3 gamer i dont like shooters i dont like multiplayer sports jrpgs or racers.

i intend to buy a 360, based off of this, what games should i get,
consideri have the multis i like on ps3 ie assassins creed hawx nd such

what should i get

[N4PS3Fanboys]

Fable II (WRPG)
Mass Effect (WRPG)
Mass Effect 2 (WRPG)
LIMBO (Platforming)
Portal: Still Alive (Puzzle)
Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 (Puzzle)
Halo Wars (RTS)
Shadow Complex (Platforming)
Ninety-Nine Nights II (Fighting)
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts (Platforming)

Now I'm curious what you'd play on the PS3 if you didn't like shooters, racers, sports, or JRPGs. That would eliminate almost all of the PS3's AAA exclusives except for LittleBigPlanet. Uncharted=shooter, Resistance=shooter, Gran Turismo=racer, Killzone=shooter, Demon's Souls=JRPG, MLB: The Show=sports, Motorstorm=racing, etc. Or were you just trying to downplay the 360's exclusive lineup?

[jerethdagryphon]

actually played masseffect 1/2 on pc 1 anyways got bored with 2.
dont really like rts limbo looks intriguing
i prefer adventure games

afrika force unleashed prince of persia that sort of thing

geo wars is interesting portal i got on pc cant stand fighting games
banjo i thought was a racer?
not dising the 360s lineup but for the most part it caters to genres i detest.

[ALFAxD_CENTAURO]

Not even Metro 2033 or Gears of war 1 is exclusive.

[Colonel-Killzone]

I don't understand how you put Crackdown 2 but not Mass effect 2....

[YoungKiller25]

Mass Effect is not exlcusive its on pc,

[georgeenoob]

It's console exclusive.

[Colonel-Killzone]

Its a Console exclusive... If I can't play it on my PS3 and its available on the XBOX its still a exclusive that we can't play on a console other then the XBOX hence why I'm sticking to its a exclusive.

[ukilnme]

@ Colonel-Killzone

That's too much for some people to understand.

[TheTeam06]

Jesus Christ, talk about deja-vu.....

Anyways, a game can't be exclusive and be found somewhere else at the same time. It's either exclusive or it's not.

[Stryfeno2]

Its a N4G syndrome.

[snesfangirl]

i have the most educated answer to one of your questions-

"Why do some of you got fanboys praise that agent is a exclusive to the PS3 but when it comes to 360 all the sudden its not a exclusive. Sigh....."

answer: because the n4g fanboys (especially the sony ones) are nothing but hypocritical assholes.

hope my educated answer helped some, lol, be good.

[Colonel-Killzone]

Thats by far the biggest and most ignorant piece of crap I ever read and seen on N4G and trust me dude I seen the worst but you my friend are the worst of the worse.

Not only are you a double standard weak minded hypocrite but on top of it you couldn't even respond with a post that makes sense. First off thats a opinion about PS3 games make wii owners and xbox 360 owner buy a PS3.

A pc is not a console regardless of what you wanna say. And I remember fanboys saying how PC is dead go to consoles but wait 1 second........ Just now you guys wanna do a Romeo and juliet flip the script bullshit to try and say Mass effect is not exclusive.

I will say this again Mass effect is a exclusive on the xbox 360 because you cannot find it on the other 2 console platforms. I really don't like when fanboys wanna say PC is dead go to consoles but then try and make a PC seem like a console when it best suits them. NO if your gonna say nonsense stick by it and stop contradicting what some of you guys are posting.

[wages of sin]

Bubbles to you both.

I have been trying to make this point as well. Never, in the 20+ years I have been gaming, has PC gaming and console gaming been lumped together. They are exclusives. Period, pointblank and whatever the hell else you want to call it.

Would any of you argue that Halo:CE is not a 360 exclusive because you can play it on PC? Of course you wouldn't. Unless you're ignorant or a card carrying member of the sdf. This is why I give props to snesfangirl and Col.KZ. They are REAL gamers, not broke ass pissed off teens (or paid goons) who play GAMES and not consoles. I have all three and a PC because as a fucking GAMER FIRST, I know that each brings something to the table that can't be found elswhere.

Stop with all the hating already and grow the fuck up.

[fucadastates]

but i dont need a xbox360 to play it. nether do you. so why care..??? i have own ME2. love the game.. but i dont own a 360 (efter the last RROD). play it on pc, and then i play some uncharted 2.happy times.
if you have a pc(you do) and a xbox360 you cant play GoWIII ;)

ohh and dont tell me that i have said that pcgaming is dead (it will never die thanks to china)- loving starcraft2 :) find a post from me saying that. dont brush everyone with one come (børst ikke alle med en kam). just cause i own a ps3, dosent mean that i think pcgaming is dead.

my point is still valid. evryone has a pc (you might live under a rock - then you dont) and can play MS2, regardles of what consol ypu have.. but Gow3 and killzone 2 you can ONLY play if you have a ps3.

[M4ndat0ry_1nstall]

Quick question bro (that will blow your mind)

If a game was built for and is exclusive to the iphone (original) but is also playable on the iphone 3GS, would that game be MULTIPLATFORM or EXCLUSIVE?

YES or NO?

[chrisgay]

I guess they're going for a nice balance of different styles and genres- seems like a pretty nice list to me, I'd recommend most of them to anyone buying a 360.

Should I have heard of Earth Defense Force 2017? Anyone here played it? Impressions?

Also, ODST should be in place of Halo 3 in my opinion- much better story and all the same multiplayer elements as well as Firefight. Plus I think the story works without having played previous Halo games.

[Fanb0y]

Bad list is bad.

[Hades1337]

Earth Defence Force? Are you having a laugh??

Also, you can't really recommend Gears of War 2 without having played Gears 1 first.

[Unicron]

Another top 10? Must be N4G.

This is pathetic.

[CrazyOrange]

good list and wont cost much since most of these games around 20~30$ ,except for the arcade games which even cheaper.

[xchris92x]

Geometry wars 2 is on iPad only its called Geometry wars touch

[CrazyOrange]

i think it sucks in ipad
because this game get seriouse in +200k score

[Darksyko]

I played Earth Defence Force when it first can out and....it's fun with friends that's all, not recommened. But Even though ME 2 is also on pc not every has a good rig to run it with out a bit of slow down or top settings. If you don't have a pc that can run it at top specs stick with console version do the game justice it's gorgouse. Metro 2033 is also on pc lol. I mean just to throw it out there...if you like rpgs Tales of Vesperia and Lost odyssey are amazing. Actually, can't remember if Tales of Vesparia went to ps3. Haven't seen it yet. Sooo add those in place of a couple....also this article is crap and who ever approver it or whatever should be ashamed.

[Arnon]

Alan Wake (must have)
Gears of War 2
Halo: Reach (must have)
Fable 2

oops I forgot PC gaming is dead or PC has no games

[silkrevolver]

...it has absolutely nothing to do with this article.

[maxcer]

well.... so does stating a few of these games on the article can be played on PC. the article is about the xbox360, not the PC and not the ps3. now if the article said "top 10 games to argue about what console they really belong to , and how you can be a fanboy douch" it would be true.

[Silly gameAr]

Where are you when PC gamers are in PS3 articles?

[FalconR289]

I played that Limbo game at a friends house and it was super crazy.

[fredfenster]

That fool knows little, I pity him.

[Memo-Xen x3100]

XBOX360 games you should consider if you don't game on PC. :)

Gears of war 1 and 2
Halo 3, ODST and soon Reach
Mass Effect 1 and 2
Alan Wake
Dead Rising
Crackdown 1 and 2

It's not a big list but those are the essentials I bought every other game that's worth having(3rd party) on the PS3 since that's my preferred platform of choice.

[Fumps]

A video game console is an interactive entertainment computer or modified computer system that produces a video display signal which can be used with a display device (a television, monitor, etc.) to display a video game.

The term "video game console" is used to distinguish a machine designed for consumers to buy and use solely for playing video games from a personal computer, which has many other functions, or arcade machines, which are designed for businesses that buy them and then charge others to play.

[punisher99]

Let me explain something to everyone. The article does not say "Console exclusives". It says exclusives. Which is the reason posters above me are saying games like Mass effect 1 and 2 and Gears 1 are not exclusives. They are console exclusives, but thats not what the article is talking about. The article is talking about "exclusives". In which Gears 1, Mass Effect 1 and 2 are multiplatform games.

[maxcer]

lol, holy fuck. who cares? oops wait, i forgot where i was...

[silkrevolver]

My parents surprised me with it as my early birthday/get-well-soon present (my appendix recently burst, and I’m house-ridden.) What a coincidence!

[GusBricker]

All you need is 'Splosion Man, baby!

Because everyone loves donuts...I know I dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !

[animelover10487]

with fable 2 and Left 4 Dead, I am not a fanboy of any console I love them all but have only bought an xbox and a ps3. I have to say that most people who hate on another console Must not have that console. I cant see why you would hate on a console that you spent hard earned money to buy. I love my xbox and ps3, before i bought my xbox i was almost absorbed into the fanboyism on this site and would have never have thought about buying the xbox(also due to the disappointment i had in buying the first xbox). I'm here to tell you that you should never hate on a product without trying it first. I am personally enjoying Left 4 Dead and Uncharted 2, and i hope other people will try to do the same :D
