I'm looking for a cheap dungeon crawler/hack n' slash. I have Marvel Ultimate Alliance and I can't afford Dugeon Siege just yet. Multiplayer, preferably local but not required, is a must. Any suggestions?

Was Bastion a good game? Does it play like Diablo or another type of action rpg?

For people who love puzzle games or are into anime I'm about half way through Catherine and it is definitely something different. It's interesting and the puzzle system is challenging but satifying. puzzle-heads check it out

I'm thinking about getting it at a price drop.

How are the Gundam Dynasty Warriors games? I have never read/ watched Gundam but I think the games look cool.

So I'm getting a 360 this weekend, and want a great game for around $20. I've been looking and Borderlands, and Mass Effect 2 are both $20. But they aren't really up my alley. What would you guys recommend?DarkoBWM

darksiders or Bioshock? Got both for around 15 bucks.

[QUOTE="DarkoBWM"]Well I want something like an RPG or good story based. I typically play shooters and sports games but want something different to hold me over until Madden comes out.KeredsBlaze

I am looking for a good Street racing type game. I want to be able to tune cars. I am looking for a game that would include Mitsubishi Eclipse gsx, Nissan 350z, Mazda RX-7, Honda Civic, Nissan Skyline, etc other cars as well of course but I would like like to be able to upgrade parts, change looks, race online, increase performance. Anyone know of a game like this?

I'm playing vanquish, good game so far, but Dead Space 2 is also very, very good. I would say DS2, because it has alot ofreplay value, plus MP if you want it. (I've played through it about 6 times now... still love it.)

What's a good mindless action game? Something without an emphasis on story, just some old-fashioned violence for a good time while listening to music.Rhazakna

Resident Evil 5 has the Mercenaries Mode after beating the story mode, it's a TON of fun, very replayable and you can get sucked into it for hours if you want.

Also, maybe check out one of the Dynasty Warriors games? I haven't played the recent ones, but they are pretty mindless from what I understand.

I think what you want is Bulletstorm my friend .

Should I get Deux Ex ?UprootedDreamer

I own it, have played about 2 hours of it, pretty good game. Plus others love it. It's like stealth meets shooter meets RPG.

Just Finished Dues Ex: HR. It was AWESOME. really amazing game. great story, great gameplay, so many options of ways to complete missions and tasks. DEFINITELY grab this one,

I'm really in need of a game to keep me occupied until BF3 comes out, but i just don't know what.

After been set on Dead Island's release for the past few weeks i've come to the decision that i may actually wait for it and see if the price may drop soon, so what i'm looking for is anything, more or less. Something with a good story, maybe some RPG elements to it, with different combat styles, stealth, range, melee, anything that's not just guns blazing. But i will take any suggestions that you think i may enjoy :)

Was looking into Dragon Age 2, but i have yet to complete the first one, which i sold a while back.

What do you guys think of Deadly Premonition?Seems like a pretty underrated game to me,IGN gave it a 2 and Destructoid gave it a 10...I thoight it`s pretty awesome specially after I watched Giant Bomb Indurance run.

I'm looking for 2 player co-op XBLA or Indie games. Any genre is fine but I'm leaning towards platformer or beat em up. I already have Turtles Arcade, Gunstar Heroes, and all the Genesis Collection games(Streets of Rage, etc). Thanks for any recs in advance!Eikichi-Onizuka

I couldn't get into the game at all, wanted to like it but just couldn't see past the terrible controls and graphics unfortunately. A lot of people out there love the game though so I think it just depends on your taste really and whether you think you can look past the problems the game has such as the aforementioned tank-like controls. Story did seem pretty interesting from what I did play of it and you can get it for pretty cheap now too.

Looking to get a new game and think I have narrowed it down to two possibilities

Dead Island or Deus Ex

Both interest me and I am having a hard time deciding on which one to go with.

Thoughts are appreciated
