Whats Going On With New Games?
« on: April 16, 2007, 02:20:00 PM »

Great games that are not Childish and Not sequels:
Chromehounds
Condemned: Criminal Origins
Crackdown
Dead Rising
Enchanted Arms
F.E.A.R.
Full Auto
Gears of War
GUN
Just Cause
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition
Ninety-Nine Nights
Prey
Project Sylpheed
Rockstar Games presents Table Tennis
Saints Row
Shadowrun
The Godfather The Game

Now if you want to open yourself up to games that are not childish and ARE sequels, well there there are a great many titles available.

As for racing games, yeah the real GT games are lacking but that's not a genre with an abundance on ANY console. Even still you should Checkout Test Drive Unlimited as a good driving game to hold you over until Forza 2 and PGR4. Not to mention GTR is supposedly hitting the 360 at some point.

Yup not much yet.  We'll see if forza is any good.  Im hoping it is or thats another 2 months until I see anything Im interested in.  


All I play is R6Vegas online everyday so im content for now.  I figure if that gets old I'll go back to Oblivion but so far this is the best multiplayer game ive ever played.  Well, since halo that is.

Dont get a Wii either.  The game it comes with is just about the only one out and its just about the best.  (wii sports)

Forza Motorsport is awesome and addicting!

I also highly recommend Heroes of the Pacific, its 2 years old and still fun! In a nutshell it's a flying game about WWII and is very addicting. I do realize that they are original Xbox games but they are cheap and can be purchased for 15$ (both games).  

Also, Over G looks like a cool airplane game, it's a more modern approach towards air combat. And it's for 360!

EDIT: Also saw The Godfather The Game mentioned. It too is also very fun!

Over G is horrible. If you absolutely must have a flight combat game, give it a try, but rent it first at least.

I am worryed as most of the 360 games seem to be sequals there needs in my opinon to be some new original tittles, at the moment it kind of reminds me of when the dreamcast came out, lots of people brought them but all the games where sequals.


If you were familiar in the slightest about xbox 360 games, you would realize that the 360 has the most new franchises that we have seen in a long time.

I'm not saying the graphics are poor but the gameplay is what is suffering.



To each his own opinion, but my opinion is that the 360 has GREAT gameplay, the best gameplay of any console so far.
