This man knows what hes talking about. If you go the 360 route then definitely get Mass Effect 1 and 2, Ive put about 400 hours into both of those games combined and Im still playing both of them (plus the first one you can get used for like $10-15.) And either way you need to get the oblivion game of the year version which is for ps3 and 360 I think. Its simply amazing and youll not want to play anything else for a longg time.
