Gears of War 2

$35.00 Est. at Amazon

from Steve from Dayt, www.circuitcity.com
it has all of the great gameplay and action and none of the annoying little bugs.
from J, www.circuitcity.com
over-the-top action, addicting multiplayer, and a terrific campaign.
from 0==[]zzzkonceptzzz>, www.newegg.com
but for a game like this it's always too short for anyone.parts of the game you haveto kill everything within the area or do something specific to unlock futher action.
from www.amazon.com
the action in this game is intense and unyielding.
from Steve, www.newegg.com
it's easily followable and just cuts straight into the action (with a little twist at the very very end).

Resident Evil 5

$49.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it was as perfect a game as i've seen recently, with amazing pacing, the perfect meaty length, intense action sequences and enough horror to still call it a horror game.

from www.amazon.com
it may not be a survival horror ala the original re games, but it is one of, if not the, best action game ive played on 360.
from www.amazon.com
a lot of people will say that it isn't scary, and that it's more of an action game than survival horror.

sound/music: the music in the game is pretty good but it's either barely there or it'll show up when things get all action-y but you're so wrapped in the action you might not even notice but when it

Pure for Xbox 360

$39.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
my older son was a little miffed about the actions of the game when one rider hits another...some hand gestures...but its a punch gesture and so he got over it when he saw it clearly.
from www.amazon.com
let me tell you i am not even a fan of racing game, or this genre of game, but i highly enjoy and recommend this game to anyone who likes fast pace action or driving.
from www.amazon.com
on my 50" lcd it creates a real sense of height and adrenaline pumping action.
from www.amazon.com
you are rewarded for performing risky actions that contribute to your winning the race, the pure system ultimately drags on the action and makes race format events feel conflicted and confusing.
from www.amazon.com
pure is an excellent game for those who love racing with a lot of action.

UFC 2009 Undisputed

$54.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it's best to run through the tutorial or else easy actions like getting up and taking someone down will leave you clueless.
from www.amazon.com
basically, everything is done on a weekly basis and most physical actions take a certain amount of stamina away.
from www.amazon.com
the announcers call the action accurately and little repetition ever appears.
from www.amazon.com
they're also synched very well with the action going on in the ring.
from www.amazon.com
while proceding through your career you will learn to manage strength, speed, and cardio trainning, sparring, resting, and other actions such as autograph session while working your way up the ranks

Tales Of Vesperia

$98.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
if you only want action, stay away from this game (though i'm not sure why you would be looking at an rpg in the first place).
from www.amazon.com
tales of vesperia is the newest tales game in bandai-namco's long running series of action rpgs.
from www.amazon.com
every aspect of it is enjoyable, from the fast action combat to the beautiful graphics to the great characters and surprisingly great voice acting (no whiny main characters here!).
from www.amazon.com
if you played symphonia or other tales games, it is action based where you get into battles and you fight in a straight line with your target enemy.
from www.amazon.com
that past tales games suffered from in favor of deeply interesting moral conundrums - a rather daring move, since many players will undoubtedly disagree with the actions of the main character(s).
