But anyway i'd say Oblivion. But definately pick up Gears sometime or wait for Gears 2, it's not a game that should be missed.

Oblivion is cheap with loads of play time. Gears is also very good. I'd say choose what you want more. Oblivion has no online as stated by the guy above.

The Xbox 360 Game Reccomendation Thread should help you out on this one

But out of those, I'd say Oblivion. Gears of War is a great game that you should play, but I find that the community has died online, so just rent it and catch up with the story

Or if you want I can give you the story right here...

[spoiler] Some guys with guns fight off these damn ugly things called Locust that want to destroy the Earth. They chainsaw them, light them on fire, blow them in chunks, etc. until the job is done [/spoiler]

Oblivion is what you should purchase. Gears is a rental now. DOA4...never tried it.

Gears - Some of the best shooter gameplay the 360 has to offer.

DOA4 - I guess if you really like fighting games. (I personally hate them)

Oblivion - Not for everyone, get this if you're into RPG/adventure games.

Gears and Oblivion definitely. I'd wait until Soul Caliber 4 to get your fighter fix.

Oblivion was fun like 2 years ago when it was new but it really isn't that spectacular anymore IMO. I guess if it's your first time playing you might like it but it has dated visuals, combat, and AI. I'd say Gears of war to get you ready for Gears of War 2.

gears is the best overall, but if you want a game that will last you a while then go for oblivion.

Buy Gears and Oblivion, rent DOA. I'd say rent 'em all & see for yourself but renting gears or oblivion is just wasting money - may as well buy 'em. Soul Cali or Street Fighter IV when they hit would be a more solid fighter purchase.

Hmmm.... Depends what floats ya boat. A lot of people go ****** nuts for Oblivion but I hated it. Personely, I think GeOW is an all time classic game that is nothing short of brilliant. Plus, to fully enjoy the story and new features of GeOW2 would play number 1 first. I found DOA4 to be crap, I am more of a Mortal Kombat fan.

But all of the above is just my opinion, and asking what games are good, is like asking how long a piece of string is. Some people with LOVE games that other people hate with a passion. Unless you have money to burn, or know for certain you will love a game, just rent it first.

If you like RPGs then go with oblivion ( i like RPGs but i liked Lost Odyssey a lot better)

For more of an online gameplay game, go with Gears (although i like COD4 better)

Decision is completely up to you.

I f I may make some suggestions. Oblivion has alot of cool add ons and stuff, but it get svery repetitive quick. Its a good game, but I would go with Mass Effect. For shooters I suggest you wait for Gears 2. Its not worth it to get Gears 1 if you are going to play by yourself. Cod4, Bad Company UT3, Halo 3 are good shooters that will last you till Gears 2. DOA4 is not a good game at all IMO. I would wait for Soul Calibar 4 or Street Fighter 4. But like other befroe have said "Its totally up to you".

GeOW without doubt. Oblivion, while a masterpiece for it's time, does feel dated now. It's an immersive experience though. As for DOA4, I would choose VF5 over it any day.

I think all of them are awesome games, but I would have to say Gears of War, and it's even better to play co-op.

Oblivion will last you the longest (it has the most replay value), but it DOES NOThave online.

Gears is another must buy imo and since Oblivion is only like 20-30 dollars now you might be able to afford both.

DOA never looked like a very good game to me.

You get Oblivion for Hella cheap nowadays, same with DoA4 GoW will be about $30 I bet. here's my order...

1. Oblivion, this game is soo long that you will be playing it long enough to save up money fr my number 2 on the list

2.Gear sof War, everyone says that the online was awesome...but its the single player story that is the main draw...you MUSt buy this game

3. Dead or Alive 4, It is a good game, just it takes last place on this list, becuas ethe other 2 were better =P

Oblivion, I hate Gears of War soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much. The online is so repetitive and stupid.
