I recently received an Xbox 360 as a gift. I haven't played video games for about fifteen years. Both the games, and I, have changed a lot. 
I thought about reviving one of the Xbox 360 threads from a year or two ago, but my interest is pretty specific and different from the general discussions in those other threads. I'm looking specifically to learn how to get the most out of this fantastic device, from people who, like me, are simply not into any kind of "first-person shooter"-type games which seem to dominate the "best game" lists.
The last three video games I played (all those years ago) indicate the kind of video games I'm looking for: The 7th Guest, The 11th Hour and Phantasmagoria. I guess these are considered "psychological/puzzle" games and are "interactive movies". Are they still making games like that? And if so are any games that really shine on the Xbox 360? ... i.e., games that really couldn't be played on a computer - games that need a seventh-generation video game system, connected to a big screen?
