Metro 2033 (Xbox 360)

This post-apocalyptic, survival-horror, real-fantasy setting, first-person-shooter may be high concept (and full of hyphens), but it looks frighteningly promising.

Blue Dragon (Xbox 360)
A touch more evolution might have launched this traditional RPG from extremely good to indispensable.
Fable II (Xbox 360)
