10 and another 10 excellent Xbox 360 games

I could have named this post The top 10 Xbox 360 and Live Arcade games, you know, but I can’t say I’m fond of this “top” thing. Actually, I usually hate it. I mean, what’s the point? How can somebody objectively prove that Call of Duty 2 is better than Viva Pinata? See what I mean? No? Well, that’s what the comments section is all about. This post, on the other hand, is all about the tens of Xbox 360 games I consider excellent, fun, beautiful and/or innovative, and though they have all been rated pretty highly by most reviewers, these lists have no claim to objectivity. Good taste, you see, is both more important and above objectivity…
