Any good (SOLID) "Only On Xbox" games?

Just wanted to know the exclusive Xbox titles that are good. I'm looking for some titles to get. I just got my Xbox a few weeks ago and haven't had the time to crack into it.

Buffy is underrated and overlooked.

If you don't have Halo yet get it, if not........ nothing much else to get in my opinion.

Halo and Splinter Cell. Buffy is ok, but some of the environments are to dark and it's hard to see any spots where you'll fall to your death.

Amped and Blood Wake are decent, and can be gotten for under $20 each.

Buffy is an excellent game if you you're a casual fan of the tv series. Morrowind is a good rpg by all reports although not like the usual japanese console fare. Check out some reviews.

I enjoyed Blood Wake at first, but I don't think it's anything special... Same for Hunters: The Reckoning - it's a good substitute for Gauntlet Legends (which sucks), but it's nothing spectacular.

Panzer Dragoon Orta
Prisoner of War
Fuzion Frenzy
Cel Damage (I know it's on other consoles now, but it was exclusive for awhile and it's fun)

Blinx.... I know, it got some bad reviews but I heard it is done by some of the developers of Nights so I have some hope for it

Azurik

(ducks the barage of rocks being thrown at me)

Even though OXM and the rest of the world hated it, I enjoyed it.

Splinter Cell and Max Payne. I played Mechassault and Unreal, but don't think too much of them.

Circus Maximus is a great game even though the rest of the wusses didn't even give it a chance.

It's something different, has cool graphics, has neat characters, and you can get it CHEAP because most people can't handle it.

From what I played.

Halo
Morrowind (if you like PC type RPGs)
Shenmue II (again if you like this type of game)

Some affordable titles I liked. Maybe not AAA stuff, but worth the price.
Rallisport Racing
Tony Hawk 2X
Buffy
Hunter the Reconing (Might be multiconsole now, but its only $30 on Xbox)

I hated stuff like Oddworld, Blinx, Toe Jam and Earl, and Splinter Cell so I can't recommend those. I will still recommend trying them out as other forum members liked them.

Sometimes it helps to go to places like EB were they will let you demo the games before you buy.

Another vote for Buffy. $30 bucks at most places and WELL worth it. We thought it was a bit too dark too, but then we just turned up the brightness in the control panel. Helped a lot. Awesome game.

Vote against Circus Maximus - I gave it a chance and it was poop.
