Not to get too far off topic but... any good non-FPS games for 360
that you might recommend someone that loves PC games?

It really depends on what sort of gamer you are, lots of people here
are completely anti-console style games and prefer games to be
realistic and gritty as opposed to console games that aren't afraid to
be just fun.

As I get older (in my 40's) I am concentrating more and more on games
that let me have fun, and as such I really enjoyed Crackdown, have
been loving Burnout Paradise (coming next year to the PC) since it was
released in January, and even though I am crap at it, I love Geometry
Wars 2, possibly the best shooter I have ever played except perhaps
Tempest 2000. Unfortunately since my anti-gaming GF moved in earlier
this year, my game time has been rather curtailed, I am not buying
many games, so I am not the best person to advise on all the latest
and greatest games. I just know that these days I find the 360 a much
more natural home for my gaming needs.

I still like hanging around here for the (sometimes) intelligent chat
about actual games as opposed to the Xbox groups that are inhabited by
raving fanboy's who spend all their time in pointless Xbox vs PS3
arguments.
