I found the following exclusive games to be worth the money:

Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Crimson Skies
Metal Slug 3
Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee
Otogi: Myth of Demons
Otogi 2: Immortal Warriors
Voodoo Vince

And the following non-exclusives were outstanding too:

House of the Dead III
Spawn: Armageddon
Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy
Ty 2: Bush Rescue

Note the lack of Sports and FPS games.

Burnout 3 Takedown is the best racing game for Xbox, and any of the EA
Sports games as well as ESPN nba 2k5 and NFL 2k5.

I got Azurik for Christmas one year. If there is a worse game out there I
assume it would be one of the other two you suggested.

Hmm, adds it to my "Don't bother" list.

Fable isn't too bad. Very replayble...though there
are few consequences for being evil and little no
reward.

Yeah, you've discovered the xbox's incredible selection of *3rd person*
shooters! I guess that's what passes for "variety" on the xbox.

If you like turn-based military strategy games like Risk or Axis and Allies,
Dai Senryaku is awesome.

CounterStrike is lots of fun online, but I haven't played in a while so I'm
not sure if there's still folks playing or not (too much Halo2).
MechAssault
KOTOR

Fuzion Frenzy for some good off-line multiplayer (it's a bunch of party
games -- grab orbs, knock each other off waterfalls, etc.)

I would suggest The Elder Scrolls lll: Morrowind GOTY edition only if
you have lots time on your hands it's a great game to lose yourself in
and plus it's platinum hits now.

I picked up DOA3, but I haven't been that excited by it so far. DOA2
Hardcore on the PS2 seemed to be more playable and, I dunno, more "fun".

Granted, I haven't played very long, and I haven't unlocked anything yet,
so I know there's tons of stuff I'm missing Still, the FAQs only seem
to indicate there're only 3 costumes per character, whereas DOA2 Hardcore
had as many as 8 for some of the characters... Is this true? What gives?

Depends on the chracter. The girls have a lot more costumes than the guys.
Then again, I think a lot of these costumes came on a booster disk, so...
