    Morrowind: Game of the Year edition. It's all you will need besides a change of underwear.
    Some other great ones out right now that I would suggest are:
    Amped 2
    Rainbow Six 3
    Grand Theft auto: Double Pack (If you don't have ps2 version) or True Crimes: Streets of LA. (So I've read )

    KotOR stands for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, a Star Wars RPG from LucasArts and BioWare, which is also an excellent game to get. The first game that you SHOULD get it Halo, the best game on Xbox.

    As for racing games, here are some good ones:

    Project Gotham Racing
    Project Gotham Racing 2
    Midtown Madness 3
    Rallisport Challenge

    ...there are of course many others.

    If you want a really good and very realistic racing game get Sega GT 2002, all the cars motor and handeling capability's are based on the actual car. rent it frist you may like it.

    I don't think anyone's mentioned this one yet but Midtown Madness 3 is really fun. I got it 3 months ago and still play it a lot on Live! its a great game.

    First off, welcome to the Xbox Addict Forums and to the Xbox.

    I would buy Halo Combat Evolved first off if you have any intrest in first person shooters. As for racing game, I can't really help you there. They just really aren't my type of game.

    any Tony hawk game (2X,3,4 are all $20) especially 4 or underground...im not even a skateboarder , i actually kinda hate it but i enjoyed those games..they take awhile to beat and it requires skill and fast hand /eye motion

    if you wanna go really cheap, turok evolution is like 8 bucks ..if you need a quick fix that should pull you over...its a average/good game and at some times its great...for 8 bucks its worth it...

    the big 3 that went on sale though on platinum hits i highly recommend

    Mechassault
    Splinter Cell
    Ghost Recon

    splinter cell is probably the best out of all of those.

    Purchase every game in my signature, excluding Amped, and then add in KoTOR (Knights of the Old Republic) Project Gotham Racing 2, Burnout 2, and Need for Speed: Underground, and you have yourself an excellent selection.
