i got a $100 gamestop gift card from work and bought a bunch of MS and Wii points. the question is... what should I buy? At this point, I want suggestions for Xbox 360 more than Wii, because I'm not too hot on buying a bunch of old games that I already own.

i open the forum to you guys. suggestions??

Small Arms on the 360 is a must, what type of games would you most want?

EDIT: Be careful with the 360 points as there are reports of cards not working in North America.

i have an extensive collection of old games; any old game that hasn't been updated ( with online play, new graphics, etc ) doesn't appeal to me.

gunstar heroes, bomberman, for example don;t appeal to me... unless they were online-enabled. Paying for a 10+ year-old game that i already own just doesn't make sense. However, games like UMK3 are cool because of the online play and leaderboards.

I'd like to play new games that are creative and fresh, or games that have great online multiplayer or co-op.

On Xbox360 I like -

Assault Heroes - Top down verticle scrolling shooter, good fun co-op over live.

Lumines Live! - I know its expensive but I just love my Lumines

Geometry Wars - Good fun, very fast paced shooter

UNO - Good relaxing game, good for playing over live and chatting with people

While it's not out yet, Worms HD is due out on XBL Arcade early next year. If that's your cup of tea. I know it's a big fucking cup'o tea for me!
