It does have some big names. Lost planet from the few reviews seems like a
straight average shooter with insane difficulty. I'm not sure of crackdown
or mass effect. Those I think are wait for some opinions and hope they are
ok.
As for GTA i'm just burned out on the series unless they add some good new
features to it i'm just going to pass on it. Playing 3 console versions and
2 psp versions of what seems like the same game now has drained me for the
series.
For c&c & LOTR they might be good but rts on consoles haven't had much
luck. Aren't both being made by EA? I can't remember who bought the C&C
license.
I am looking forward to forza, Bioshock, Alone in the dark & Assasin's
Creed. VF5 & the rest i'm up in the air about.
I'm sure more games will surface.
This year for november and december I bought around 12 360 games alone
because everything seemed to get released in like a 3 week period. (Lucky I
saved up most of the year to buy all those) I'm not a huge Halo fan but, i'm
sure the hype will get to me and i'll preorder it. I'm still not putting
down $100 for the 4 dvd set
