Well this has been a rollercoaster ride of a season 360 gamers I suspect, with the release of some major games that we have been waiting for and the fact that my wallet now hates me I will through some major releases so I can get some things off my chest.
Fallout 3-
This game had me sold when I first saw the teaser a long time ago, now that the game is out and I have beaten it once I can honestly say that this is the game I wanted to see...it has it's little fumbles but they pale in comparison to the level of detail and humor that this game maintain all the way through.
Fable 2-
This game suprised me, I went in expecting a kinda jarring adjustment back to the cutesy world of albion and was greeted by a harsher and more gritty game that still maintains that story book quality and fun. The game is everything I wanted from the first one but it is still to damn short!
Gears of war 2-
I liked the first one but I got bored quick without any real narrative to latch on to, this game has a decent story and moves at a better pace than the original...I still fear that multiplay will be kinda crummy but I can't pass jugments yet...overall I hope that epic can keep up the momentum and make a even better game than this...that would be something to see.
This has been a tough year on our wallets but I think that most of the big releases were really worth the wait and I hope that we see a even better run of games next year.
The new xbox experience thing is really starting to grow on me, I am glad that they game the menu's a little bit of personality and added some really needed functions that make the whole system feel more usefull.
On another note...the new Star Trek trailer is really worth a watch...download it on the dashboard and see what I mean.
Till next time
Mike
