Biggest Anticipation for Xbox 360?
« on: 20 May 2006, 08:56 »

Ladies and gents, what is your biggest anticipation for the Xbox 360? Since the conclusion of E3, we have seen many downloadable trailers off of xbox live, the internet and such. Yet I'm not sure what I'm truly excited for, as I was excited for Oblivion. What are you guys awaiting for MS' new system?

Bioshock.

But that's relative. At the moment, I'm not really excited much about the 360 at all.

I'd like to some awesome results for Shadowrun.  Lots of potential for good and potential for shiit.

There's not really as much potential left for shadowrun.
It seems to be a bad looking Unreal championship clone.

Oh, yeah. I second hopefulness for Shadowrun. I want a cyberpunk game and since Too Human has turned to shite, I have to place my faith on that.

Apparently for Shadowrun instead of taking a good RPG base and adding action elements they did it the other way around. ie: started with a mindless shooter & added just enough Shadowrun stuff so that they could call it Shadowrun.

I am sorry, Shadowrun fans.

Well, it hasent been announced, but we all know its comming out.. Resident Evil 5.

I didnt buy a Game Cube (I wont untill Zelda comes out) and I didnt want the PS2 version (though, maybe i should rent it), so i missed out on RS4 for the most part. So when I heard that RS 5 was gonna make its way to the 360 i was very very happy.

Halo 3 thats a give in.

Yet, the game that I'm terrified to play, yet extreamly excited liek a puppy for is Gears of War. The previews, the raves, the trailers all look wonderful. Its gonna be like condemed (i couldnt play that game with the lights on, in day light, with people watching, i was that scared) for me.

Last but not least, Mass Effect. Loved KOTOR, loved Jade Empire, this is gonna be one for the ages.

I seriously am not looking forward to any 360 games. And that includes the way I'm looking forward to things like the new smash brothers, which I'm never going to buy, and not likely to play. Sorry microsoft, I couldn't care less.

The setup is already there. Once the Wii comes out, the 360 will be a thing of the past.

Though if it does manage to survive, I would like to play Gears of War, or some sort of highly rendered Mech game. If nothing else, the robot would look kickass.

I am really looking forward to seeing a real next-gen FIFA and Winning Eleven on the 360.  I've seen the 360 port of FIFA World Cup '06, and while it looks awesome I am pretty sure that a soccer game made with next-gen machines in mind would look even better.  (and yes, I know that anticipating a sports game is pretty lame, but c'mon, I am a secret football enthusiast).

I am looking forward to GTA 4 on the 360, but then again I'll probably get it on the PC instead, so that probably doesn't count.

I am not even sure if any of these things have been announced, but here is a list of titles I'd love to see a next-gen follow-up for:
  • Mechassault (and with MS owning FASA Interactive this looks probable)
  • Ninja Gaiden
  • Prince of Persia
  • Gauntlet (Seven Sorrows was ok, but I think that they can do better)
  • A next-gen Psychonauts would be pretty cool, also[/list:u]

Dang on all that Shadowrun biz but I'm not all that suprised.  I some what suspected that direction from the clip.

I keep forgeting about Rockstar's first jump into the "next gen" fray.  Table Tenis.  I'm curious if Pong was some how an influence in it being their first project.

Also, as soon as I can afford it I'm going to be all over getting the full version of Uno from ze arcade thinger.

Hate to tell you this, but there isn't going to be another mechassault. Microsoft have already stated that they currently have no interest in producing another game from that license.

Microsuck.

I recently downloaded a demo off of the XBL Market Place. It was Lost Planet and I cannot wait for this game to come out.

 The graphics are better than most games i have for the 360, and it is comparable to Oblivion. Maybe even better. The funny thing about it is that it's coming out next winter.... so that means that it isn't even completely developed.

 The gameplay is hilarious fun too. Third Person shooter and you can control some crazy ass robot mech outfits. The A.I. is pretty cool too, and they have crazy insects and humans and robots to kill, so it's pretty all around.

 I had tears in my eyes the whole time I was playing this game.

A price drop? Seriously, that's one expensive gimped PC there. Although Sony definitely one-upped them, I'm not going to think about buying a 360 till I get get one for $200 or less.

I really suggest that everyone who has a chance to do so should play Rockstar's table tennis game.  It's a metric shit ton and 300 cocks worth of fun.

OK, Chromehounds is the first game that has made me really want a 360, but I am not going to shell out 400 dollars for one game, especially one that isn't out for a week. Other games I am going to pay attention to:

Prey
Dead Rising
Mass Effect
BioShock
Crackdown

If all of those games turn out to be good, I'll probably buy a 360.

But I'm still far more excited about the Wii.

Prey was pretty much decent fun but the fact that I stumbled across hearing some Art Bell Coast to Coast is pretty much what sold me on it.  Also being able to relate somewhat with a video game charecter that is native american is really weird but kind of cool.

So anyway, the only game that gets me excited is Lost Odyssey. I'm an RPG fanboy.

Dead Rising and Bioshock

I was anxious for Oblivion, but then I found out that Morrowind was better even if it is a shitty old game.

For all that talk for Wii being the best and such here is my thoughs and feelings....
Well I think M$ put out the 360 too fast, its going to end up like the Sega Dreamcast [RIP god I loved that system! sega rocks, and well I think microsoft sucks.] I think in the next gen of consoles its going to be the Wii, because people will be able to aford the system without haveing to sell off their first born, like with the ps3 700$ cnd is a tad much in my mind for something to play games on.
