Upcoming X360 games

Sean · 05-17-2007, 07:03 AM

I am bored to tears this morning and thus am making a list of upcoming games that I should buy when I purchase my X360 in a couple months.

So far I've got:

IGN: BioShock 8/21/07

IGN: Blue Dragon 8/28/07

IGN: Mass Effect 9/03/07

IGN: Eternal Sonata 9/11/07

IGN: Assassin's Creed 9/25/07

IGN: Halo 3 9/25/07

IGN: Lost Odyssey 10/01/07

IGN: Grand Theft Auto IV 10/16/07

IGN: Culdcept Saga 10/30/07

IGN: Ace Combat 6 11/13/07

IGN: Devil May Cry 4 November 2007

Release dates subject to change, blah blah blah. I'll also pick up Gears of War when I buy the X360. Not sure what else. Anyone have any other big upcoming games to add to this?

It's already out, but for the love of zombie jesus make sure you get Dead Rising.

Other upcoming games to look at might be Kingdom Under Fire and Two Worlds.

Sean · 05-17-2007, 07:14 AM

Oh, yeah I probably should get that.

DMyst · 05-17-2007, 07:16 AM

Your list is spot on...but i would add Condemned 2. I loved the first one and i have high hopes for the second one.

Dead rising was a fun game but i think he would be better off renting it.

After the other threads here on Two Worlds I've become rather disinterested in it.

DMyst · 05-17-2007, 07:20 AM

Fracture Preview (Xbox 360)

Lorrac · 05-17-2007, 07:45 AM

I'm gonna get crucified for this but... if you enjoy sim games, check out Viva Pinata - it's certainly an interesting game.

Soygen · 05-17-2007, 08:03 AM

Oi, my fucking wallet...

PS: I have Viva Pinata and it's pretty damn cool.

IGN:The Darkness - June 25, 2007

IGN: Clive Barker's Jericho - September 3, 2007

IGN: BlackSite: Area 51 - September 10, 2007 (Demo Available on Marketplace)

Jubee · 05-17-2007, 08:18 AM

I played that Area 51 demo and thought it was pretty terrible. Tons of slowdown, Resident Evil 1 amounts of ammo (I had to drop my machine gun and use a pistol after the first wave of enemies), and brain-dead AI. As with any game, I'd play the demo before you drop $60 on it.

Soriak · 05-17-2007, 08:21 AM

Already released, but if you're looking for games to buy when you get the console, I'd highly recommend IGN: Marvel: Ultimate Alliance Review.

As for new games: IGN: Alan Wake Preview

Supposed to release in Europe in July, probably around that time in the US too.

edit: Jubee, I didn't experience any slowdowns, but I'm sure there'll be more optimization before release. Regarding ammo: after the first fight, run straight out of the building to pick up quite a lot of ammo.

Zerai · 05-17-2007, 08:22 AM

Too many games at one time. It's really unfortunate Mass Effect is not due in June =/

*shrug*

Even though it was short, I thought it played well. Never ran out of ammo on the machine gun so I didn't check out the pistol. I was always a fan of the old Area 51 arcade game so I am hoping they will release a longer demo before it hits the selves.

Also, I'll add my vote for picking up a copy of Dead Rising. I saw it down to $30 in EB Games a few weeks back, not sure if it was a sale or not though.

Soygen · 05-17-2007, 08:25 AM

The framerates on the Area 51 demo fucking sucked. It looked cool though and I didn't have any issues with ammo. Aim better.
