I haven't touched a game since.... March? I think. So what did I miss on the 360? And what's coming up? @_@

    Nothing. The PS3 took over with its superior Cell, Blu-ray, and Dual Shock 3. The remaining 360's are being converted into toaster ovens.

    No, seriously. ;_; I know there were a lot of good games coming out. Which were big flops and which are must haves?

    March eh?

    Bioshock and Halo 3 have come out, they are fantastic. Half Life The Orange Box is next week and in November there is Rock Band/Mass Effect/Call of Duty 4. Those are the major ones from the top of my head.

    Also due ANY DAY now is the new FlatOut, which looks spectacular.

    Man, I have like no spare monies. I'm trying to save money and last month I bought Bioshock, and this month, World in Crisis. I am also looking to pump more into my computer but you know what, I just can't. I need to add funds to my account to not only open up a CD, but also fucking PAY FOR COLLEGE.

    I only have the PC, DS, and PSP platforms and that doesn't really give me to splurge on. I just need to try my best and keep my money from the stores. I think I really ought to just skip out on the 360 and halo as a whole, as well as perhaps the Orange Box. All in preparation for the grand Unreal Tournament III.

    Halo 3 and BioShock I'd say are the must-plays on 360 since March

    Also Forza 2 if you like racing sims, PGR4 if you like it a little more arcade-y, and Blue Dragon if you like JRPGs

    Whilst I don't think it's a uber sim, it's cretainly difficult to drive and no arcade racer. When you start turning up the damage modelling it get's really impressive.

    I hear it's made by Hungie.

    OP, you may want to plan out your attacks and wait a week or so; rumors are that Toys R Us is having another buy-2-get-1 free sale the week of Oct. 14, which means you can save a bundle if you can find a TRU with the games you want.

    Ive had a quick browse and didnt see mention of a fantastic new 360 game (soon to be ps3) skate.
    It's a damn fine piece of electronic entertainment!
    And what's this about the darkness? might just be me by the looks of it but I really didnt enjoy it massively. I found it had gimmicky ways of killing people and I stumbled through what I played by accident. I dont understand why shooters need special powers these days! :(

    I've always liked Colin McRae's games. I think I'll buy DiRT if there's a PC version available (since I don't own a 360). Too bad there won't be any more. :cry:
