To be honest, the 360 controller is awful for fighting games. While the XBLA Arcade title Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is playable with the controller, Street Fighter IV is not. If you're thinking about doing any fighting on your 360, pick up a fight pad or an arcade controller for it.
If you want immersive, third person action, I highly recommend the Assassin's Creed games. While the second is far better than the first, I strongly recommend that you play both of them. It'll be a lot less head scratching on your part when you play AC 2.
If you like RPG titles, Bethesda's got a few options. If you like post-apocalyptic themes, go for Fallout 3. It's really great and quite immersive if you let it take you in. Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, is simiarly engrossing, but it can be extremely glitchy and frustrating sometimes. Still a great, and REALLY fun game, though.
If you like space themes, there's the Mass Effect series. I haven't played them personally (though I intend to) but they come strongly recommended by people whose opinions I trust.
If you want fast, frenetic, team-based FPS, then you gotta at least try out Left4Dead.
