Whats Your 360 Game Buying Schedule?
« on: February 13, 2006, 03:39:00 PM »

ok i know their is a games your most looking forward to in 2006 thread
but some people do not have the time or money to get all those games

before hand this is pretend for me since i dont have a 360 yet(thinking summer 2007 for me) ph34r.gif
but if i did get it would of got it at launch with PD0 and played arcade til the new year

ok now on to my list(im basing the release dates off of ebgames website)
im looking to only get 4 or 5 games

1. full auto/ feb 14/ i would get it the day it comes out - i have loved this game since i saw it
i gives me the same feeling crazy taxi did when it was released feb 2000 for dreamcast

2.Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter/mar 7/ i would also get this the day i comes out - normally i dont like these forms of games but heck its a new age of gaming and it looks so fun

3.  Call of duty 2/ ill get this probility in may for used-  not sure about this cuase i may get a new 3d card for my pc

4. Gears of War/ july 1/ yup running out to ebgame the day its out - now i have a weird hatred to cliffyb(ive played the UT series for over 1000 hours) i dont know but i dont like him but this game looks so sweet

5.  The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion/ im going to get this in october i believe -  it looks so good and the perfect thing to keep me warm and occupied during winter

i dont think its possibel to know what games ill be buying this year. there are games i think are going to be good but until they are out i wont know. also there are games that look bad but can turn around and be good games. games also can be pushed back. i am not even sure what games ill be buying next month not along the rest of the year.

I will buy every Xbox 360 game with good gameplay..........

Fight Night Round 3 = The day it comes out

Elder Scrolls: Oblivion love.gif = The day it comes out (Once I get this game I probably wont play any other Xbox 360 game).

Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter = The day it comes out

I hope this is last of the "What Xbox 360 Games Will You Be Getting?" threads.

Far Cry Predator

If the water looks like it did in the trailer, I'll be picking up 3 copes of this one.  One to play, another to keep pristine, and another for, ehhhrrmmm, personal reasons.

This Is How It Works For Me, I Always Have 3 Games, The First Game Is The Game That I Own That Will Be Replaced By The Next One In The Right :

Ridge Racer 6 --- Full Auto --- Burnout Revenge --- Test Drive --- ¿
Kameo --- The Outfit --- FarCry --- TimeShift --- ¿
Dead Or Alive 4 --- Battlefield 2 --- Scarface --- ¿

I currently own/ have owned
PDZ LE (picked up at launch)
PGR3 (day after launch)
Condemned (day after launch)
Kameo (1 week after launch)
THAW (end of december)
DOA4 (release day)
Amped 3 (last week) - got used in trade for THAW
Ridge Racer 6 (yesterday) - got used for $40
COD2 (current in the mail coming to me) - got used for $45

PGR3, THAW, Kameo, and DOA4 I've played through there initial runs
I'm currently playing Amped 3 and will work on my other games once that is done.

For the rest of the year:

Games that our out now:
Quake 4, NFS Most Wanted, Gun, and King Kong - I'll buy these used, trade them for games I have or borrow them from friends once I start to get bored or 100% the games I have now.

Full Auto - I'll wait to buy this used, it seems like a pretty shallow game, but if it's got 4 player split screen it'd be decent for parties where most people playing don't have any experience with the game.

Fight Night Round 3 - probably buy used or in trade, play through it, trade it for something else

Oblivion - If the limited edition comes in a metal box, I'll be buying the Limited Edition on release day simply because it comes in a metal box, if it DOESN'T come in a metal box I might not pick it up at all (I bought PDZ, Halo 2, Doom 3, and True Crimes NY for the same reasons). I'm just not a fan of western style RPGs, but I am a fan of metal boxes.

Splinter Cell: Double Agent -  love.gif Sam Fisher is my Hero... now if only Chaos Theory would play on my 360 so I can finish it before this one comes out.  grr.gif

Burnout Revenge - Probably pickup used or in trade after it comes out, it will stay in my collection at least until Burnout 5 is on the radar, it's a good game for parties.

Tomb Radar Legends - Definitely picking up on release day... I've been waiting for a TR game with modern graphics and the classic gameplay...  love.gif

Gears of War - picking up on release day... I'll get the LE version if there is one available.

Prey - picking this up on release day.. game looks DAMN awesome

Too Human - looks interesting, I'll play this one by ear and see what the hype is around release time.

Enchant Arm - I love the Japanese style RPGs, this one looks somewhat interesting. I might pick it up used if it ever comes out stateside.

Down the road:
Halo 3 - whenever it comes (I honestly doubt it will be this year)
Mass Effect - looks interesting even if I don't like that style of RPG
Killer Instinct 3 - Rare better release this, they would be foolish not to, The Xbox NEEDS fighting games BAD (sorry SF2 doesn't count), IMO this would have made a much better launch title then PDZ, not to mention it would have sold better then PDZ in Japan, and given them time to make PDZ the FPS king that everyone really wanted it to be.
Resident Evil 5 - picking this up on release day... RE is one of my favorite series.
Rallysport Challenge 3 - YES... this game will own my LIFE  laugh.gif


Honestly though the Xbox has somewhat of an overabundance of FPS and Racing games, and is severely lacking in Fighting Games, and Adventure games. Kameo was awesome but how much longer will it be before we get another decent Adventure game. Same can be said for DOA4... we don't even have any officially announced Fighting games down the road, how sad is that?

Rallisport 3?  Has that been announced?  God I hope so.  

I have Oblivion and GoW on pre-order.  I'm looking forward to Alan Wake, although if they don't release it soon the graphics will be a bit dated.  After that I'll be a bit more picky and hold out for Halo3 and maybe some decent RPGs.
