Batman: Arkham Asylum
Having owned a Playstation for a year now, were I to be purchasing a system now, the first game I would buy would be Batman. Even though it is new, I think the replay factor for me will be high. The challenges are fun, working your way through the surprisingly expansive map is fun, and everything about the game oozes awesome.
It's also an RPG that you can play a little bit at a time, which for a gamer like myself, is a huge bonus. I don't always have two hours to plunk down on a level, and the challenges in batman allow me to play for 10 minutes if I am waiting for the wife to get ready.
The game is just so great, it will easily tide you over until NHL comes out, and then probably for awhile to come.
I would also rent Fallout 3. Great game from what I've played, but I have really only gotten part way through. If you are looking to log hours, this is an expansive game.
