Yesterday a friend came over mine with a XBox Live Points Card for me from when he had a 360, there are so many games on the Arcade that I cant choose what to get! Could you lot suggest what are the "Must Have" games please?

Cheers,

Craig
 
Geometry Wars ~ Only recently got it (comes free on a 512MB card) and there's not much to it but it's got that 'just one more go' vibe.
Boom Boom Rocket ~ A good fun rhythm game and quite addictive (also has 2 player mode)
Catan ~ If you like geeky table top board games this is a very very good adaption

The one game coming soon that really has me excited (don't read further unless you're prepared for ultra-nerdness) is Talisman. To celebrate the 4th Edition (just been released by Games Workshop) they're releasing this on XBLA before christmas with online/local play. I've still got a copy of 2nd Ed rules with all expansion sets so I'm very excited.

TMNT for me but thats based on childhood memory's as well. As a game on its own its a bit short but very fun! Streets of Rage 2 is another thats highly recommended.
 
Most of the games I have from XBLA are for the wife - Uno, Sonic, Streets of Rage. One's I like are Puzzle Quest and Marble Blast.
 
Best buys for me so far are:
Uno
Sonic 2
Streets of Rage 2
Golden Axe
Puzzle Quest
Super Puzzle Fighter 2

I've got 29 arcade games, it never felt like I had so many :o
 
In rough order:

1) Puzzle Quest
2) Marble Blast
3) Geometry Wars

Worms, Outpost Kaloki X, Sonic 1/2 etc are all great as well.
