X1 back compat it pretty great, but there is still a large selection of games (especially ones that rely heavily on licensed music or characters) that aren't playable.
If you like JRPG's Eternal Sonata
It's a strong JRPG with a great art style, incredible music, and somehow turns into a history lesson on Frederic Francois Chopin. The game takes place on his deathbed in a fantasy world that seems to exist in his dream. Everything is named after or connected to music in some way.

On this topic, how many folks are collecting sealed 360 games? I figured id start now before a few of the ones not listed online become rare or hard to find. I have new sealed copies of full auto and sonic 06 in My amazon cart, please stop me
I liked Alpha Protocol, it had some rough edges but its interesting and it's not BC so it should be a cheap disc buy
Fuse. Honest to God, I thought the game was a great, criminally overlooked TPS.
Divinity 2. Really cool third-person action RPG from Larian. I'm surprised that this game is never talked about given the success of the Original Sin games.

Sleeping Dogs

That generation remains a treasure trove of brilliant arcade racers. I.e, back compat's most ignored genre.
Start with Blur, Sega Rally Revo and Project Gotham Racing 3 or 4.

Man, I wish I liked this one a bit more. This had to be one of the buggiest games I've ever played on 360 and I remember some boss at the end being miserable to fight, but it's been a while. I know that this one has some interesting writing and choices(Though I can't say I was blown away with anything I saw, but maybe I didn't delve deep enough
This game is pretty fun. I can't say that the plot or characters are particularly interesting, but I had fun with it and the art style I remember looking really solid when I played in 2012 or so.If you like JRPG's Eternal Sonata

Also Terminator: Salvation, a fun (if repetitive) Gears clone.
