If you recently bought the Xbox 360 gaming console, what games can you play in addition to the common ones? Grand Theft Auto and Assassin’s Creed are classics, but there is more to your Xbox 360. 


Games such as Splosion Man game, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, and Super Meat Boy may be lesser-known, but they’re extremely fantastic. In the post below, we have for you a list of interesting games that are underrated but you will love playing on your Xbox 360. 


Splosion Man

Twisted Pixel Games developed Splosion Man when downloadable titles were becoming popular. What makes Splosion Man unique is its gameplay mechanism and old-school cartoonish charm. The game is funny and keeps users hooked throughout. Although it was released in 2009, it is still a cult favourite because of its creative risk-taking feature. 


Super Meat Boy

If you loved playing Super Mario, you must try your hand at Super Meat Boy. This 2D game has been in the industry for more than 15 years. In the game, players control a tiny cube-shaped character made of meat, “The Meat Boy.” He jumps the walls and narrowly avoids deadly obstacles such as dangerous saws, spikes, and lava to rescue his girlfriend, the bandage girl, from a villain named Dr. Fetus.   


The world of fashion and games is the same; it is constantly changing. For instance, there is a resurgence of the male vampire inspired by hip-hop culture, and in the gaming industry, old arcade-style games are introduced in a more engaging format. One prime example is Super Meat Boy. You will love it if you miss the old-school games from long before high-graphics gaming experiences emerged in the market. 


Braid

Released in 2008, Braid is an iconic game developed by Number None. It is undeniably one of the best Xbox Live Arcade games ever created. The storyline is exciting, keeping the players engaged. The hero, a little suited and booted creature, is messing with space and time to rescue a girl who is “a damsel in distress.” 


However, as you reach the game's finale, you realise it is nothing like you thought it would be, and the princess is not a damsel in distress. In fact, it is a game of walking, obsession, and much more. 


BioShock Infinite

There is absolutely nothing that you will dislike about this game. BioShock Infinite has one of the most interesting opening 15 minutes in gaming history. It's unpredictable, will give you goosebumps and instantly get you hooked. The game also has an incredible soundtrack that makes it even more interesting.  Although it doesn’t make it to the top-selling gaming titles, it is a highly immersive game. 


Red Dead Redemption 1

This is an action-adventure game series developed by Rockstar Games. It is set in the American Wild West and is loved for its rich storytelling and cinematic presentation. In the game, you are John Marston, a former outlaw; the government forces hunt down his old gang members. While playing, you will ride horses, experience shootouts, and go hunting. The game is popular for its exceptional storytelling, high graphics that create a sense of realism, and strong theme based on freedom, loyalty, and redemption. The platform has also released Red Dead Redemption 2, which has a similar storyline and thrill.  


Halo Reach

Halo Reach was developed by Bungie in 2010 and is by far the best single-player game ever. The game's story mode is interesting and has perfect pacing. The game also involves brilliant missions involving a spaceship, making it one of Bungie's most interesting launches. 

Conclusion: 

If you recently bought an Xbox 360, you are most likely confused about the games you can indulge in. Although some games are classic and most players start with them, there are some underrated gems that only seasoned gamers know about. 

For players looking for something exciting with a strong storyline, as mentioned earlier, the games are some options you can try out. So, take out your gaming console and play your favourite game today!
