If they ever port Samurai II: Vengeance from the iPhone/Android to XBLA you'll also be set

Then in mid September another GoW collection is coming out titled Origins, which are the two PSP games (Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta) ported onto the PS3 in HD and trophy support.

If you can wait 'til mid September the actual chronological order of the series (not release order) is:

Chains of Olympus
God of War 1
Ghost of Sparta
God of War 2
God of War 3

I haven't actually played the PSP games but I hear that is the best order to play the games in.

Sorry for taking your topic off-topic for my post.
Larry C, I realize you're looking for 360 games, but if you already have a PS3, you'll be doing yourself a serious disservice to pass on these games. They're basically the cream of the crop when it comes to the type you're looking for. (Though I'd recommend going with God of War 1 first, then move on to Chains of Olympus and the rest. It sets up the origin story better, imho.)

I feel like an idiot. I couldn't figure out why Larry thought Gears of War was a hack and slash! Duh....

Yep, Wolverine is under rated. Until the final boss, the game is great.

Wolverine
Viking
Bayonetta
Conan...(I HATE this game and the people who made it. But hey, it's a hack and slash)
