Got a £10 amazon voucher so thought I would buy a 360 game, but then when I looked I realised I didn't have a clue what to get.

I already have:
Fifa 11
Forza 3
Red dead
NFS:Shift
Black Ops

and I've got bioshock on loan from a friend.

What game would you get now, that I haven't got, if you didn't or don't have it already?

Would it matter that I haven't played the original one?

Depends. Maybe, maybe not. Obviously there would be things you would know if you had played the first one, but then the majority of the game is with a new assassin Ezio as opposed to Altair of the first, so its largely a new story. Its just the bits outside the Assassin story in the 'real world' that you might understand better if you'd played number 1.

But its nothing major really.

Definately play AC2 before AC brotherhood though.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassin's_Creed

The overarching plot for all of the games takes place in the year 2012. It is implied that the 2012 of the game's timeline is rife with chaos and destruction. In-game emails report of a plague that has wiped out the population of Africa, a story about the Mexican President increasing border security in response to "American Refugees" crossing the border, an extreme number of hurricanes across the world, and the closing of the last major film studio in an unnamed country.[2]

Amidst this strife, megacorporation Abstergo has devised a plan to seize control of the minds and free will of every person on Earth. To achieve this goal, they must locate artifacts called "Pieces of Eden". Abstergo captures Desmond Miles, a bartender who as a child was an assassin trainee, to search his ancestors' memories stored in his DNA in order to find the Pieces of Eden. Desmond is forced to enter the Animus, a machine that allows for the viewing of such memories.

yeah.
 
put it towards tdu2, it'll cost you 27.71 then, and if you pre-order, you'll get the casino which is going to be DLC when released.
 
Just completed Assassin's Creed 2 and I thought it was one of the best games I've ever played so thanks very much for recommending it! Time to get all the feathers :p
 
Arkham Asylum + Assassin's Creed 2 are fantastic games.

But a better way to recommend games would be if you had a specific genre you would like.... be it RPG, shooters, puzzle, etc.

I hear Portal 2 may be worse on the 360... but nonetheless would probably be a great game also!
 
Depends what you're into.

Fps? Half-Life 2 (Orange Box) is extremely good value for money and HL2 and the two Episodes will keep you going for ages. On the other hand if you want more action then I recommend either Medal Of Honour or if you like a slighty more futuristic approach and more freedom to approach situations the way you want wait for Crysis 2.

On the other hand if you're into Rpgs there is no finer than Oblivion that is avaliable right now imo. Mass Effect 1+2 are also pretty damm good if you're into sci-fi.

Racing games, I recommend Split Second or Nfs Hot Pursuit (as I see you already have Forza).

Action Adveture I would recommend Tomb Raider Legend and Underworld, and if you like a little more action check out Ninja Gaiden 2.

If you like stealth look no further than Splinter Cell Double Agent (and steer well clear of the abomination that is Splinter Cell Conviction).

Need a more info on the type of games you like most as its difficult to recommend only one out of a whole libary of excellent games.
