Kidzworld's Top 5 Xbox 360 Video Games

Dec 27, 2006

On November 22, 2005 the coolest new game system in the world dropped into game stores. The Xbox 360! It's packed with power, completely wireless, and ready to jump online with Xbox Live. But, what about the games? As cool as the system is, it's the games that make it a must-have toy. So we glued Gary to the couch in front of an Xbox 360, plugged in a heap of games and here's his pics for the Top 5 Xbox 360 games. Get your Christmas lists ready!

Xbox 360 Game 5 - Peter Jackson's King Kong

The guy who made The Lord of the Rings movies just brought King Kong to life as a movie and a video game! The Xbox 360 King Kong game lets you play as the ape, and as a puny human, as you follow the dinosaur-wrestling, island-exploring, adventure of the movie. It's gorgeous, the action is incredible and it's really, really short. It's a great game to own, but it's better as a weekend rental. Just make sure you bring your own bananas!

You can't change the ending.

Xbox 360 Game 4 - Kameo: Elements of Power

Meet Kameo, she's part Legend of Zelda, part Shrek SuperSlam, all shape-changing elf. Her sis is unleashing an orc army to stomp the Enchanted Kingdom flat. It's up to you to take control of Kameo and use her shape-changing powers to stop the bad guys (and girls). Kameo looks incredible, sounds great, is easy to play, and has lots of puzzles to keep your brain working. It's also loaded with tons of cool combats and huge boss battles. Unfortunately, the tutorial level sucks so getting started is a pain and, once you get started, it's not very long.

Kameo: Elements of Power Thumbs Up:

Shape-changing powers.

Wicked sound effects and graphics.

Action-packed battles and huge bosses.

Kameo: Elements of Power Thumbs Down:

It's pretty short.

The tutorial level is a pain!

Xbox 360 Game 3 - Tony Hawk's American Wasteland

Tony Hawk's skateboarding game is bringing the kick-flippin' action to the Xbox 360! It's packed with skating action, cool moves, huge levels, a wicked story, and you can even hop on a BMX bike! From the custom characters to the boards and levels, this game looks awesome. The only bummer is that, even with all the Xbox 360 power, it's really just the Gamecube/PS2/Xbox game with better graphics.

Tony Hawk's American Wasteland Thumbs Up:

Tons of cool moves and tricks.

Huge levels to skate around in.

Build a custom skater and style 'em up!

Tony Hawk's American Wasteland Thumbs Down:

It's the Gamecube/PS2/Xbox game with better graphics.
