Not a bad system but I haven't had much time to play. I've only played GH II and PDZ for a few minutes. I've checked out the marketplace. I also have a faceplate but I can't figure out how to remove the current faceplate!! Anyone have suggestion for 360 items to buy? I already bought a cooler cause I don't want it overheating. My damn 360 doesn't come with the extended warranty either!!!

If you have a cooler, make sure it is Nyko's "Intercooler 360" and not the plain old "Intercooler". The original actually overheated the contacts on some of the soldering where it was mounted, which is why it was quickly replaced.
Another good, but cheap game is
Prey
. It has more gameplay value than PDZ.
RR6
and
PGR3
are good cheap racing games, however they are both extremely difficult.
For items, if you break the plain old wired headset, and still do a lot of online gaming, you might want to consider the wireless one. The plain old one breaks too easily.

I did my research before buy the fan and I did get the Intercooler 360. I read about the possible fires starting with the old Intercooler. I liked the old Perfect Dark and I get the PDZ new for $8 I think. Does it have the unlockables like PD and Goldeneye has? I loved trying to get the cheats in them two games.

No unlockables really unfortunately, the only thing that you can unlock is the Dark Agent difficulty when you beat it on Perfect Agent difficulty.
Also, you unlock weapons by carrying them out with you when you beat a level. For example, you only start with a select few weapons in your arsenal to begin with. When you first find a rocket launcher in a level, as long as you still have it on you at the end of that level, you unlock it for use in any level. So I guess those also count as unlockables. However, most are easy to find and will unlock naturally through normal play.

I plan on getting Viva Pinata. So there is no cheat you earn for being certain levels under a certain time? That sucks beyond belief!!! I loved that in PD and Goldeneye!!

Well, I figured out how to replace the faceplate and after I saw that The Devil Went Down To Georgia was a free download for GH III I picked that up even though I already have GH III for the Wii. I actually have Lego Starwars with Ep. 4, 5, and 6 so I don't know if I'll pick that up but I did play the demo!!

phoenix's list is good, but I would recommend DOOM and Smash TV from the XBLA. They are both 400MS points each ($5). DOOM held up very well IMO and is still fun as ever.

Hmmm, I might have to get Doom. I loved that game! They should come out with ROTT and Duke Nukem!! There is so much shit in the Marketplace and it is hard to navigate it so I haven't checked it out much. I'll have to dwelve into it more.
