Good Dungeon Crawlers?

Was wondering if anyone could suggest a good dungeon crawler for the 360 (or Mac) that maybe I have over looked. I've been having an itch to play one lately and I can't find any that I am really enjoying.

 

I think I've already played and/or researched quite a few of the games available, but I wanted to see if there were any I was overlooking or maybe one that videos and reviews didn't do it justice and I should actually give it a try.

 

One game I know everyone will say is Torchlight...no need as I already have it, played it, "finished" it. It doesn't satisfy my itch any longer.

 

Thanks!

Diablo 2 is a classic!

 

Dungeon siege 3 did just come out, I havent played it yet and cant recommend it personally, but it looks pretty good!

 

I'm going a slightly different direction on this, but Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas? They do have a TON of different area to explore and a LOT of loot to find which is what I think of when I hear the term dungeon crawler

I've played the Diablo games to death already. Currently awaiting Diablo 3 to come out though :p

 

Downloading Dungeon Siege 3 and Daggerdale right now.

 

I played and finished Sacred 2.

 

Fallout New Vegas is a game I am currently working on as well.

 

I think I addressed everyones comments. Thanks for the suggestions! I appreciate it. :)

Deathspank was okay, in a flippant, sarcastic fashion. Really, any game which asks you to shove orphans in a sack is worth playing once.

Completed 1 & 2. Both great games.

 

For the 360, try Sacred 2. Even though most of the action happens above the ground, the game play is straight-forward kill and collect loot.

I originally bought Sacred 2 when it first came out and I did enjoy the game, but there were a lot of problems with co op online. A lot of my friends couldn't join eachothers games or my games. which was kind of a bummer. I also ran into a glitch that got me completely stuck (can't remember exactly what it was, but basically I ended up not being able to progress in the game because I couldn't complete a quest. I'm sure I can pick it up quite cheap nowadays though, I may look back into it. Hopefully they fixed the few minor problems I had with it.

 

I really enjoyed Torchlight on XBLA. I have it on Steam also. Just hoping Blizzard does release Diablo 3 for Consoles eventually!

I enjoyed Torchlight, but as I said in my first post, I've played and finished it, so there is really no need to recommend it. Please read before you post. :)

Diablo, Diablo 2, and the LoD expansion are the best (well, only) dungeon crawlers i've played.

 

They are ~11 years old, but are amazing.

Sadly the resolution on them can't go higher than 800 x 600, though D:

 

I second this, Diablo 2 and LoD were amazing!

Sounds like you've played most of the loot-driven action RPGS on Xbox. You could try more straight-forward RPGs like Risen or the new Arcania game. Also, you might want to try the Trenched demo, as it's also got a bit of a loot focus, and it's supposed to be good.

 

It's not on Xbox, but Titan Quest is a fun action-RPG. I don't believe it's natively supported on Mac either, but you could try it through a Windows emulator like Wine. I had it up and running on an Linux system that way, albeit with some occasional crashes.

OMG You could play torchlight?!?! only kidding dude, i learnt to read when i was like 3....

 

As others have said though dungeons and dragons:daggerdale is a pretty good game, i started playing it recently, also deathspank 3 is coming out soon, and also bastion is coming soon which is similar to torchlight from what i've seen.

 

I know they dont fall into the same catergory but have you tried two worlds or oblivion? They're decent rpg games but may not be what you're looking for.

Dragon Age: Origins is an amazing dungeon-crawler game.

Origins was a great game. Haven't picked up the second one yet.

Haven't played Daggerdale yet, but I have been hearing good things so I will put it at the top of my list. Haven't heard of Bastion, but I will definitely look into it.

 

I played Two Worlds when it first came out. Can't remember if I ever beat it or not. Haven't looked too much into Two Worlds 2 though. Oblivion was amazing. So excited for Skyrim.

 

Thanks for the suggestions and actually reading posts :p
