I'm looking for some good games for xbox but i'm cheap -No paycheck yet.- and hoping to keep it at 20 dollars. But I want something that will keep me glued to the tv. Any suggestions?

Star wars Knights of the old republic 1 and 2 are my personal favorites. Also Halo 2 but if you get that you should look into getting xbox live. There is also NHL 2007, one of the best hockey games I think. And of course, Lego Star Wars 2.

It depends what you like. If you can stick with a game that can occasionally be frustrating, but is very John Woo-esque, than Dead to Rights is alright. If you like flight combat (but not very big on simulation) than Crimson Skies is good, if a little short. If you're looking for a good story and don't mind not having to press a lot of buttons and be extremely active, Dreamfall: The Longest Journey and Indigo Prophecy are solid.

Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy should be fairly cheap.

Soul Calibur 2 might be under $20 now if you're looking for a good fighting game.

Prince of Persia games are fun action-adventure games, although only the first one is only $20 I think.

If you're looking for a Diablo-like game (but not nearly on the same level) the Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance games aren't bad, but I found them way more fun with someone playing with you.

Syberia's a pretty good adventure game that's in the same vein as Monkey Island (you can't get stuck or die, but some of the puzzles are a little confusing).

X-Men Legends is pretty entertaining too.

Don't forget HALO too. You need to play HALO first before getting into HALO 2. ;) I don't know of any other good games for the XBox since I don't own one but I did watch some TV reviews about some of the XBox titles. Anyway, some of them that I do know of are Call of Duty 2: The Big Red One (I hope I got the title correct), Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, Freedom Fighters and Mercenaries to name a few.

Ninja Gaiden is one of the best games for the X-Box I've played. Also, KotOR 1&2 are good games. Never played Halo, but everyone says it's great. I also liked Darkwatch, but it's short.

Morrowind. IMO the greatest Xbox game of all time. You can get the Game of the Year, which includes two expansion packs, for about 19 bucks Online. If you have a couple hundred hours to spare, and don't mind bad graphics it is sweet. Kotor 1 and 2, Gun was also great. The Godfather is also excellent. It is like a better more fun version of Grand theft auto. Imagine you need to get a shop keeper to pay you weekly protection money. So you go In and ask nicely. she says no and slaps you. You grab her and smash her agaist a wall. Pull your fist back and ask again. She says no again. So you take her and throw her outside, through her window. You then take a baseball bat, break her knee and smash her head. Still mad you place a bomb in her shop and blow it up. That is all real gameplay. It is one of the best xbox games in a while.
