Try Dishonored! I love FPS games, but can only play them on my PC, so my XBOX titles are almost all RPG without a shooting aspect. As far as fitness games, try Fruit Ninja Kinect, YourShape Total Fitness, or Dance Central.

Dragon age origins, the elder scrolls games, left 4 dead, and buy the walking dead arcade game! A great story and great characters!

Kingdoms of Amalur! (Spelling that sucks. Really. I had to look it up. But great game!!)

Chromehounds is a fun Mechwarrior type game that should be pretty cheap.

I loved Crackdown but Crackdown 2 sucked donkey balls.

Thanks for the suggestions. I picked up Oblivion on clearance at Gamestop and got Skyrim through Gamefly. So far, I don't understand the hype but to be fair I've only played it an hour or 2 so far. My fiance bought left for dead and made us play it, uhhhh deft not a shooter fan even when it does involve zombies. I do want to play through the Bioshock series even though it's a shooter it seems like you can do other things besides shoot and has a great storyline? Story is important for me with gaming. I like to feel like I'm playing a movie =/

You may want to try a different class in Skyrim if you're not liking it. The great thing about that game is at the beginning you really can choose any playstyle you want. You can choose to throw spells or slash and hack and you're not locked into anything until you start spending you level up points later on. Skyrim gets better as you start really fighting dragons and stuff. The other thing people like about it is that the world reacts to your actions. When you kill an NPC it doesn't come back the next day for example. There are also a lot of different quest lines and dungeons to explore and it is completely up to you in what order you do them. The Non-Liniarity is awesome, but some don't like it. Also, one of the notable things about the game is the world levels with you, meaning as you run around the world the bad guys can still be at least a little challenging even after you've leveled up you toon a bit and played for 45 hours.

For Recommendations I don't have much because you hate my favorite game types (Space and War). They may sound silly, but some of the best non-space and non-war type games I've seen are any of the Lego titles and the Skylander Games. They are a lot of fun.

I can't argue with this. If you like playing a "movie" but you don't like sci-fi shooters, Mass Effect 3 was not the game for you. If you can tolerate it, i would suggest playing the first Mass Effect instead of jumping right to the 3rd one, as the 3rd one is all about the Galactic War between you and the main bad guy(s). The story in that game (putting the ending aside) is one of the better ones out there, and the first game in the series does a nice job of being story driven, with lots of interactive cut-scenes...and some shooting. Oh yeah, and you can have a love interest that can potentially carry through all 3 games.

Dragon Age: Origins has a good story too. The gameplay is reminiscent of Neverwinter Nights. Medieval-themed and you can take a love interest in this one too. Gotta love BioWare for allowing you to get your digital freak on...

BioShock has a Great story, but it is a FPS so you will be doing a lot of shooting. There are other things to do like upgrade weapons, hack security bots and cameras by way of mini games but overall...it's shooting..or plasmids...or both. The setting is phenominal. I found i stopped playing sometimes to take a look around at the visuals. Rapture is one of the better game locations there is. I'm not a fan of FPS myself and this game is in my Top 5.

The LEGO games are great as well if you don't mind a non-serious game that tends to make fun of itself. LEGO Lord of the Rings is good, with LEGO StarWars right with it. LEGO Harry Potter isn't bad, and is definitely NOT sci-fi.

This!! I picked this up a few weeks ago and haven't been able to put it down. I played through just to get through it once, and then I went through on a Chaos run, and now I'm going for a Ghost/Clean Hands run.

If you don't play FPS games much it may take a little while to get used to the controls -- it did for me, because like you I also don't like FPS games (except Borderlands, those games are like crack for me). But once you get a hold of them the tension, gameplay and art are SO worth it. You can play the game several times (it's short; about 10-12 hours or so, I'd say) and find a different way to complete the missions each time.

I know I've said this already but check out Lost Odyssey lol It's the best "Final Fantasy" game in the past 6 years!!! FF13 sucked in my opinion and LO was the better "FF" game even though it doesn't share the same name, it's made by the same guy who created final fantasy!

Infinite Undiscovery and Blue Dragon. Srsly. And if you get/play Blue Dragon, you have to tell me how much you (dis)like the boss song. X3
