Are there any other games out there like BioShock? I'm relatively new to the XBox and would like to hear personal recommendations to accompany the Google-searching I've been doing. Gears of War has come to mind, but I'm not sure how heavy it is with story and graphics.
Can anyone recommend games for the XBox 360 that are similar to BioShock?

Nothing exactly like it on the 360 but I will say this, the Orange Box (with the HL:2 stuff) and FEAR are both amazing and really deliver on both action and narrative. Play System Shock 1 & 2 for the PC though, Bioshock is a spiritual sequel to those games. Also, the Deus Ex games, both are FPS games with RPG type elements and physical modification. The second game (Deus Ex: Invisible war

You might like some of the other horror and/or sci-fi FPS games but really they seem to draw split reviews. Prey, Perfect Dark Zero, Timeshift, Dark Sector, and Clive Barker's Jericho just to name a few.
