So yours truly is about to get his tonsils removed and will be laid up on the couch out of work for a week. As I'm looking to pass some time.... What are your favorite Xbox 360 games?

I Havent really done video games in like 8 years, but need something to occupy my time that week. I used to enjoy the Medal of Honor, Tiger Woods, and NCAA football games. What's out there nowadays?

Red Dead Redemption. You could play it all weekend and not realize you haven't gotten off the couch and you've been shitting yourself for three days

Seconded on GTA V. Unbelievable game. I've been playing a lot of The Division. I think it's a Tom Clancy game. Pretty cool story without getting too Sci-Fi'ish.

Best console game I've played in years was the latest Batman: Arkham.

I don't think it (Arkham Knight) came out on 360, but Arkham Asylum and Arkham City did. Can't recommend enough.

I have RBI baseball 2014 and can play it all day. Its not realistic and has very simple controls but it's only like 15 bucks and can be downloaded from the store.

This is a great game. Even if you don't play "the game" per se, you can spend all day hunting or playing poker (and getting killed by cheapshots from those damned cougars.)

The Bioshock series. The first one is great, the second is mediocre and the 3rd, Bioshock Infinite, is their best one.

They've been treating numerous employees like **** lately, so their not doing a good job of inspiring employees. Just last week my manager, who has two kids between the ages of 8 and 12, was given a 6 day notice that he had to move from Houston and take a job in Moscow or get fired. He was told Monday morning and flew out Sunday night.

theyre reaping what they're sowing

And in all honesty, I'll be doing some work from home while I'm on the mend

While those are good recommendations, I prefer going to the saloons, getting shitfaced, lassoing the piano player, hogtieing him and placing him on the railroad tracks and waiting for the next train

I believe this is called the Dastardly Achievement. I spent a lot of time hunting EVERYTHING. I actually maxed out the wolf skin carry capacity (over 50 under 60, I think). Forgetting to remove your bandana when walking into a Mexican town will provide hours of crazy entertainment if you can stay a live long enough to fight off / escape both sides of their civil war.

RDR is the only game in which I actually accomplished all the side objectives AND bought all the DLC. The only game I played longer is Skyrim.

Yeah, I did 100% on RDR. Twice. Never played Skyrim. Regret that I didn't, but that was when I was slowly getting out of playing games. Then my wife bought me a XBone last Christmas and it's back on.

I couldn't get through the first Bioshock. I'm sure they're great games. I even own Bioshock 2, but never got to it. It was just too dark. Not the subject matter, but the gameplay. I'm cool with certain parts of games being that way, but the entire first game was fraught with **** or more **** choices in endless dark hallways & rooms where I never had enough of what I needed. The game was stressful. not my idea of fun. I'm not saying they're bad games, just why they're not for me.

Not necessary though it'll help familiarize you with some of the characters. 1 and 2 are pretty dated.
