I try to play 360 as much as possible when I have a minute away from music, designing, girlfriend, and drinking...
NOTE: I don't have xbox LIVE either, I just dont have time for it, so this is based on single player action...
My favorite games right now are:
UFC Undisputed 2010 - I'm a huge UFC fanboy though. And I can't wait for 2012 to come out! The fighting is intense and realistic. The controls are a bit tricky, especially ground stuff, but you get the hang of it.
Saints Row 2 - seriously, I got this game at Meijer for like $15, I thought it was going to be a one-off crappy game that I would play for 5 minutes and throw in a pile. It has to be the most fun sandbox shooters I've ever played. It beats GTA4, hands down, in playability and fun. The graphics aren't as good as GTA4, but everything about it is so much more fun. For instance, you can completely customize your character, and all the cars in your garage. You can throw people 40 feet in the air and rip fire hydrants from the ground and throw them or use them as weapons. I've beat this game twice and still have a blast playing it. The side missions are a riot, and I often find myself LOLing...alone...in my apartment...
Can't wait for the third one which I believe is coming out soon.
Red Dead Redemption - GREAT storyline and graphics - the environment really puts you in another time. Awesome side missions too. You can hunt animals and skin them for money. The duck n cover feature and auto-aim is fantastic for shootouts against huge gangs. Shootouts are probably the coolest thing in this game, they get very intense, and never last long enough IMO. The guns are really cool if you like old western stuff too. Really fun game that I waited wayyy too long to purchase.
GTA4 - great graphics and free roam games are always neat. I find some of the missions to be redundant, however, and wish there were more options in the game as far as customizing your character to your individual tastes. I'd take the graphics from GTA4 and combine with the fun and playability of Saints Row 2, and I think you'd have the ultimate free-roaming modern shooter.
