For some reason I almost never finish Xbox games (the only exceptions I can think of are Halo 1 and MechAssault).

Silent Hill 2 - favorite survival-horror game. Fun for the space it provides to explore.
Advent Rising looked interesting, story-wise, but the pics in the Xbox mag all looked overly pixelated. Any word different?

I ended up buying KOTOR II used & the GTA 3-pack (w/ III, Vice City, & San Andreas). Played thru KOTOR as Light Side; saving Dark Side shenanigans for a later date. Am just about done w/ Vice City (have to complete stupid boat mission to go on), & began San Andreas. I fear future gaming escapades will pale in comparison.

A while back, I bought the following:
Jade Empire (not bad, esp. for $20, even if I breezed through most of it)Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (nice!)Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath (STEEF!)
Have finished the first two, and am pushing through the 3rd. Next up, most likely: the other PoP games, Bully, The Warriors (once it goes down in price), one of those X-Men RPG things, or stuff mentioned above. Assuming I don't finally buy a new PC & become immersed in Civ IV.
More suggestions, y'all!

And will reiterate the Breakdown and SH2 suggestions above. Recently replayed SH2 on the PS2 (to activate bonus bits during SH3), and enjoyed the lack of respawning enemies while exploring, and that, while there are boss battles, much of the fighting is optional. Conserve ammo or use it, your choice.
I have X-Men Next Dimension. Don't care for it much, aside from the geek pleasure of choosing Juggernaut, tromping on the opponent, and hearing the victorious "Juggernaut rules!" comment. Nice graphics, though, and each arena has adjoining areas you can reach by smacking your opponent in the proper direction, like Dead or Alive.
