Me and my roommate are looking for good fantasy themed games for the Xbox 360. We'd like something to play co-op for the rare nights when we are both in the apartment at the same time. I am, of course, cognizant of Diablo 3 and will likely pick it up once the price drops a bit but are there any other good ones out there?

I was disappointed in Diablo 3. Its a really beautiful game but its gameplay leaves a lot to be desired. Story is nothing special and boss fights are lackluster. Not sure if I have changed tastes away from those style games or was simply unimpressed.
I remember loving Baldurs gate (console versions) and especially champions of Norrath. There is a cheap downloadable game on PS called Dungeon hunter alliance. Its like 5 dollars and I thought it was a baby step behind Diablo 3. Not sure if you can get it on xbox or not. I think the golden age of hack n slash console games might be behind us.
I really wish they would make games like Skyrim and Mass Effect multiplayer and I dont mean death arenas co-op or otherwise. I have several friends who wont play PC anymore so the only chance I have to co-op with them is if its on console. We tired ages ago of FPS so there is not a lot of choice out there.

Here's a handy, dandy wiki link for one's perusal.
List of cooperative games for the Xbox 360
TL;DR : The PC list is much longer. :P
Dungeon Siege III
Dynasty Warriors 5 Empires
Dynasty Warriors 6
Dynasty Warriors 7
Eragon
Eternal Sonata
Fable II
Fable III
Kameo: Elements of Power
Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom
The Lord Of The Rings: Conquest
Sacred 2: Fallen Angel
Samurai Warriors
Samurai Warriors 2
Samurai Warriors 2 Empires
Tales of Vesperia
Warriors Orochi
Warriors Orochi 2
Lord of the Rings : Third Age
Now, the above isn't a complete list, unfortunately. Some games, for whatever reason, do not appear on it. Hunted: The Demons Forge, as mentioned by feytharn, and Dungeon Defenders, as mentioned by Rynjin, are such games, that fit the bill of co-op and fantasy, but do not appear on the list. Diablo 3 is coming up as well, but isn't yet released, so doesn't appear on the list.
Dungeon Hunter: Alliance, Magicka, Torchlight II, and Path of Exile are also good games that fit the genre, but aren't on XBox 360.
