Mass Effect has to be one of the best RPGs I've played in this gen of games. It's deep, unique, and the battle system is more than satisfying. Mass Effect 2 is coming out some time in January, so you'd be picking it up at just the right time. It takes forever to beat, and there's an asston of extra content, sidequests, general exploran, etc.
Oblivion's another big one. It was my first game on the 360, so basically, my first taste of the next generation of video games. In my eyes, Oblivion's a must-have for any 360 gamer seeing how it's only $19, which is a steal for what you're getting. Fallout 3 is pretty much follows the same take on open world RPGs as Oblivion, but in a completely different setting with a post-apocalyptic atmosphere that no other game has successfully produced. Fable 2 was decent I guess, but I wouldn't pick it up regardless of any nice things you might hear about it. It's fun to play through, but the story sucks hard and there's practically no content aside from what goes with the main story.
