I'm playing Borderlands at the moment with a friend and am loving it!

But I need another game to play single player so what would people suggest in the Action RPG niche?

Gears of war is another one of my favorites because of the game-play but doesn't have the RPG aspect... Also just finished splinter cell and am looking forward to the next due to the strategy involved... can be frustrating sometimes though!

I used to be into fantasy type games like Diablo but haven't found any to be all that great on 360... yet...

Dead Rising, 360 or Wii version.  They're not EXACTLY what you're looking for, but very enjoyable.

If you liked Gears of War's Combat system, Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is pretty good as well.  Don't let the naysayers get you down, it can be an action fest or a methodical shooter pretty much depending on what difficulty level you set it at.

Terminator Salvation is pretty much Gears of war with a Terminator skin on it.. so it's good too :).

I'd recommend more but... I'm tired, lol.

Oh.. and Torchlight is pretty much modern Diablo, but I'm not sure if that's ON 360 yet.

You, friend, have asked the perfect question. Mass Effect 2 has a combat style very similar to Gears of War (cover based) as well as squad tactics, and it has a deep choice based story. 10/10 from me, and a 96 on metacritic. Buy this game.
