Command & Conquer was good - I quite enjoyed it on the console. Also, they're developing a console version of Civilisation called "Civilisation Revolution". You can download the teaser trailer from Live. No real gameplay footage in it though, so I hope they don't lose the basics of Civ in the port.

C&C which is very good and LotR which isn't as good, but I really enjoyed the setting.

Exactly like civilisation, going to be called Civilisation Revolution or something, but not out yet.

If you like theme park type games try Viva Pinata. Don't let the cute graphics put you off, it's fiendishly difficult and addictive.

Surprisingly easily in the case of C&C3. They worked out a very good control scheme. Obviously a PC player is going to have an edge over a console player in a head-to-head, but if everyone's on the same footing is excellent. After playing all previous incarnations of C&C on the PC for 12+ years, I got C&C3 for the xbox (even though my PC could handle it) and enjoyed it greatly.
