Because Halo is not the backbone of the 360, like it was the original
Every pretty much answered you, why get a 360 without Halo? Almost like buying a Nintendo system and not buying any Mario games. And if you don't want Halo, upgrade your PC with the money or just buy some good PC games with it because almost all of the 360's games are PC ports plus $10. Barely any exclusives at all.
Mass Effect, if you insist.

I agree wholly with this fine gentleman.

Agreed.
Buy the games you missed out on instead of the 360 unless you're buying Rock Band or something it's not even worth getting a 360. I say this as a 360 owner.
Call of Duty 4 is a great game. It has a neat little campaign mode with a good plots and a great online multiplayer system.
It's not possible to stay on topic is it?
"Hai u giaz imma get xbawks. no hawloz tho."
"omfg pc is much betar, buwt pay $350 to get teh haloz nd rawk ban 4 sum reasun."
I bought a 360 because I don't want to sit in front of my fucking PC all day and play on my 50 inch HDTV.
I second Call of Duty 4 and Crackdown. Gears of War is very "meh" and you can probably find Crackdown for a good, cheap price. Dead Rising is also very awesome.
For a good list of games slated for 2008 on the 360 (both multiplatform and exclusive) see this thread:

I don't believe he asked whether or not to get a 360, he asked what games to get for it.
Point of this? TOPIC, WE SHOULD STAY ON IT FOR JUST A LITTLE BIT.

so hey i'm going to pay TEN DOLLARS MORE and settle for 8 on 8 games with no custom maps or personally hosted servers or I CAN SPEND TEN DOLLARS LESS FOR 16 ON 16+ GAMES PLUS CUSTOM MAPS AND MODS AND YOUR OWN GODDAMN SERVERS not to mention superior control
what if you prefer Controller controls over Mouse keyboord and have more friends who own online consoles over PCs that u wanna play with

Call of Duty 4=Videogame=Videogame on the 360=On topic because that's what the damn OP was asking for.
At least my post was somewhat on topic. The knowledge that many monitors are capable of resolutions greater then my HDTV will make it look totally horrible now. Oh noes, wut will i evar dew.

No, that doesn't happen. We live in a magical world where everyone likes the same thing therefore everyone buys and owns the same thing.
Everyone owns The Orange Box on the PC. Everyone prefers KB/M over a controller.
Trust Me.

You're just acting more retarded, because if you're retarded enough to think a controller is superior than a keyboard and mouse for an FPS, then you can use it.

no matter what the PC version is better because if you're a huge faggot you can use the controller but who the hell would?
who said it was superior

You could get more than just a graphics card with that. You could get a fine RAM upgrade a nice little collection of games to compliment the greater hardware.
With the money I was going to spend on a 360 and Bioshock, I could afford Bioshock for my Mac as well as 8 or more other games.
but yeah, if you're not getting a 360 just for halo 3, which is probably going to be released for pc a few years down when the 360 finds the need to bank on another overhyped game, then there really is no need to get it. more powerful computer hardware opens a world of new games that'll keep on coming even more than 5 years down the line (though the 360 only has about 2 years left in its life, or less) and it's certainly helpful for general work like newer versions of photoshop and multitasking and all that.

When did I say I prefer a controller over KB/M? I said some people could prefer it, you dumbass. It's called personal preference.

For 360, I might recomend getting some of the third party titles, as they tend to be better on 360. Rock Band is a GREAT game btw.
I have a 360 and don't have Gaylo 3 (or any gaylo for that matter) and am having one hell of a time pseudo;
uh i suggest Call of Duty 4, The Orange Box, Mass Effect, and Bioshock for starters.
But, might I add, that if you're looking for a cheap GH like experience, you'll have to weigh out the factors for each game.
GH is harder and more challenging, but Rock Band is a blast with friends and family, and has Drums.

That's far less than $400, and throw in the fact he can sell his old hardware bits for a few tens and he's got plenty of money for games.
