Title: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Morfiend on September 05, 2007, 12:45:47 PM Here is a Xbox 360 thread to go along with the PC release thread. I didnt want to put this in the end of Schilds thread, as this is for Xbox only.

Passing on Stranglehold/Blue Dragon until I'm in gaming starvation. Yah, I know they're released already. No, I'm not buying a PS3 for non exclusive titles. And yes, my PC sucks. Good thing I don't care that much about shooters, I'd be in some serious pain.

Kane and Lynch and Army of Two, meh ill probably get for Xbox, Xbox coop is just so fun. And FEAR, I dont have the original, so this way if I get it on Xbox I wont have to buy it.

WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH OUR SCHILD?!?!Especially considering that all but a couple of multi-platform games are better on the 360 than their PS3 counterparts (in fact Tiger Woods '08 is so far the only game I've heard of that runs better on the PS3). Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: MisterNoisy on September 05, 2007, 03:41:58 PM Wow. The change from pushing the 360 as the 'it' machine to pimping the PS3 came pretty quickly. ;) I'm having a hard time deciphering why I'd play multi-platform titles on one machine instead of the other in any case, since there's damn near no difference in versions between platforms, with the exception of Madden/NCAA.
Anyway, there's a few titles coming up for the PS3 that look really good (R&C Future, LBP), but not enough of them are PS3-exclusive to warrant plunking $500 down for the privilege yet. By waiting, I get to save $$ when the inevitable next price drop hits and get those titles as 'platinum hits' releases, so it's win-win. As for what's going to be pwning my wallet and free time in the coming months: September 11, 2007 skate September 17, 2007 Eternal Sonata October 2, 2007 Project Gotham Racing 4 October 15, 2007 Beautiful Katamari October 23, 2007 Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation October 29, 2007 Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock October 30, 2007 Virtua Fighter 5 November 5, 2007 Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare November 13, 2007 Army of Two November 13, 2007 Assassin's Creed November 13, 2007 Kane & Lynch: Dead Men November 20, 2007 Mass Effect November 20, 2007 Rock Band I'm also really curious about Ubi's Naruto game, if only because it looks really sharp visually, and the idea of mapping kuji-kiri/jutsu to the sticks seems interesting. Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: MrHat on September 05, 2007, 03:57:31 PM I can't remember which game it was, Army of Two or Kane&Lynch, that only has local coop. Which is retarded.
As for the list: November 13, 2007 Assassin's Creed November 20, 2007 Mass Effect Are probably it for me.

The only thing I can see getting a PS3 for is exclusive first party games and single player only games. Any game with a multiplayer component will be better on the 360, period. XBL is just better than anything Sony will concoct this generation, and the fact that most PS3 gamers probably won't have a headset would be a huge problem for me in the PS3's multiplayer scene.

In addition, the simple menu system of XBL beats the ever loving hell out of 'walking' from place to place to accomplish stuff that they've been pushing re: Home. I won't fault them for trying something new, but I guarantee that it's 'not for me'.

I didn't realize we were talking about the legacy that each system might leave behind in about 5-7 years or so. And really, I think people will remember LIVE's constant flood of content (they've probably gotten more demos in a couple months than the PS3 has had in it's entire lifetime so far) a lot longer than they'll remember a novelty like virtual arcade games in a virtual room. Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Rasix on September 05, 2007, 08:46:52 PM Also, layering your online service with a virtual world/MySpace thing is money in the goddamn sack. Only if people buy the console. I do not think this feature is a system seller. Another thing about the cross platform stuff is that I keep hearing about PS3 games running slower than 360 games (ie the 60 v. 30 fps). Is this just EA games and has anyone seen both to see what the difference plays like? It's a bit worrisome.

Is this just EA games and has anyone seen both to see what the difference plays like? It's a bit worrisome. As far as I've heard/read, only Madden/NCAA and 2K football are really impacted so badly, though I notice a distinct lack of/weakness re: AA in a lot of PS3 titles, cross-platform or not. I really can't see too much difference in other cross-platform games that have been released.

Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Big Gulp on September 06, 2007, 04:55:43 AM That's a plus... If you don't want to communicate with other players then why are you even bothering to play a multiplayer game? The positive experiences I've had over Live far exceed the negative ones. For that matter, if someone is being a jackass in a game you either kick them or leave that session. This isn't a big deal.

The prospect of a game that combines and improves upon the best features of Io Interactive's previous offerings is exciting to say the least, and the inclusion of a co-op mode where two very different characters often have very different objectives should add plenty of replay value. The co-op game won't support online play, unfortunately, but we're told that details of online multiplayer modes will be announced in the not-too-distant future. We look forward to bringing you more information as soon as it becomes available. Not sure what they mean.

The hardware is most assuredly of a higher quality then the 360. Amount of 360 games I've actually played on XBL: 1 (Marble Blast Ultra, and it was for five minutes) Amount of PS3 games I've actually played on PSN: 1 (Warhawk) So... yeah. As much as I love online support, I use my computer for multiplayer games. Ventrilo + established cadre of people who will play with me > XBL/PSN. Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Morfiend on September 06, 2007, 02:37:47 PM Well, I guess thats you. I played the hell out of Gears of War and Rainbow Six coop online. Had a blast doing. Some of the most fun I ever had on a console. Hell, I think one of the best was watching Big Gulp bounce a grenade off a wall, and seeing it almost slow motion right past my head and blowing up in his face. Then the rest of the people in the game making fun of him for managing to die before we had even engaged a single enemy.
IRT Hat: Looks like I can strike that one off my list then. Split screen coop sucks ass. Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Driakos on September 07, 2007, 02:50:19 AM Am I the only one getting The Orange Box for 360?
Beautiful Katamari is a must have as well. It will be mercilessly conquered like We <3 Katamari. 3680m Woooo! Or was it 3860m... Either way, it was at least 3680. The King and Queen were rolled up together. There's too much to buy. Looks like the family wont be getting xmas presents. Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: schild on September 07, 2007, 03:02:20 AM Getting the Orange Box for anything other than PC is kinda... well... missing the point.
See, the point is Team Fortress 2, everything else is gravy. Team Fortress 2 belongs on PC. And I don't know anyone here with a computer that can't run Source stuff. Hell, my laptop can. Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Trippy on September 07, 2007, 03:09:55 AM The Source engine will run on a Radeon 9200. That's pretty much scrapping the bottom of the barrel for dedicated GPUs developed this century.

TF2 is what I want from The Orange Box. My computer can run it, but I plan on getting good at it, on the console, on the sofa. If I'm being overly optimistic, and just get obliterated by the mousers (game after game), I'll get it for PC. But, I don't think that'll happen. I've learned to use a trackball, a nipple, and a touchpad to kill people, why not a controller? If I don't have to sit at the computer desk, I wont. As long as the option is there I guess. I got Bioshock for the 360. Gonna get AoC on console as well. Not sure when my philosophy changed, a couple of years ago, that would have been heresy.

Plus, yah know, furniture considerations. Not to mention having two gaming areas in the house has its benefits, especially during a new Project Runway season. Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Yegolev on September 07, 2007, 08:08:50 PM Are we having the PC-couch discussion again? Personally, it's an ergonomic problem with using a keyboard+mouse on the sofa. Maybe you will suggest some sort of lapboard or tray table, to which I will say: pain in the ass. Thumbmouse? Those fall into two categories: cheap shit or presentation devices. I'm not casting judgement on anyone or thing here, only saying it's just not for me.
Also I agree with Rasix's points. It's nice to have your man-cave. Did I tell everyone how my wife was putting something on one of my shelves in my office and managed to get a nice cut on her ankle? She shows this to me in a complaint-fashion and I just reply "Why were you in my office?" Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Chenghiz on September 09, 2007, 11:12:56 PM Well, I meant an entire gamepad-friendly replacement interface from which you could run whatever games you wanted to play from your seat, jut using the gamepad.
Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Morfiend on September 16, 2007, 06:17:33 PM Update. I thought Crash of the Titans was "Clash". Boo. Also, added Jericho, I got that confused with Call of Juarez.
September (?), 2007 Stranglehold - Bought this. Not as good as I thought it was going to be. September 11, 2007 skate Electronic Arts Sports - Skate. is awesome.

And yah, I can't even get moderately excited for Tony Hawk after playing just the skate demo. Not going to get skate for about another week; the wait is unbearable.
Really itching for Katamari. I expect the achievements on it to be outstanding. Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: MisterNoisy on September 16, 2007, 11:53:40 PM Not going to get skate for about another week; the wait is unbearable. Did you order from Amazon too? I won't see my copy til the 20th. :( Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Rasix on September 17, 2007, 12:17:58 AM Nothing that bad. I know for my birthday that I'm getting a game I don't really want anymore. With this season's flood, I can't afford to have games I don't really want. That game will pay for skate.
On the other hand, I almost wish I didn't crack open my copy of Madden. I'm just befuddled by the current state of the franchise after not owning a Madden game for the past 5 years. :| There's just so much new shit too. Gyah.

XBL is just better than anything Sony will concoct this generation, We need to wait until HOME drops to judge that. You mean we have to wait until sometime after HOME drops, when all the features have finally been patched in, don't you? Looks like I gave them too much credit. They had to push the whole thing back until Spring 2008 (http://ps3.ign.com/articles/821/821291p1.html). Not surprising given some of the things I've heard from Beta testers.

What can I say about F13? It's really my favorite website in the entire universe! I love the irreverent banter and sly wit these keyboard jockeys produce.

Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: HAMMER FRENZY on October 01, 2007, 01:07:25 PM I have to admit that coming from my point of view, (I don't own either a PS3 or an XBOX 360) I would buy a 360 WAY before I would buy a PS3. It just seems like everything I want to play is on or will be on the 360 and it has a vastly superior online infrastructure. I am actually just waiting for the new box's to come out so I can get one, cause I don't want a Halo 3 box, or an elite. But I am really excited about all the stuff I will get to play. And Virtua Fighter 5 with the current version update and online support is toooo sweet. I can't freaking wait.
Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Rasix on October 01, 2007, 01:37:19 PM Lost Odyssey delayed until Feb 2008. Ohh well, at least this will give me some time to play some of the games I'm buying.

Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: schild on November 06, 2007, 08:10:03 AM GTA 4 was always Q1 08.
Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Sky on November 06, 2007, 08:30:46 AM Quote from: sourced wiki Rockstar Games initially appeared to be committed to the 16 October 2007 release date. However, Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter suggested that Take-Two may choose to delay the release of GTA IV in order to boost its financial results for 2008 and to avoid competing with the release of another highly anticipated title, Halo 3.[4] Rockstar responded by saying that GTA IV was still on track for release in "late October". On 2 August 2007, Take-Two announced that Grand Theft Auto IV would miss its original release date of 16 October 2007 after all, and would be pushed back to their fiscal second quarter (February - April) of 2008. So it was Oct 16 up until a couple months ago. My bad, I misremembered it as Nov, but I knew it was definitely to be out before xmas07. Now it's slipped.

My bad, I misremembered it as Nov, but I knew it was definitely to be out before xmas07. Now it's slipped. Lots of crap has been slipping (that was not a porn industry insider joke), which irritates the crap out of me each time until I realize that I don't have time to play what I already have. GTAIV being delayed was, in the end, just fine. Title: Re: Xbox 360 Fall Release Games Post by: Sky on November 06, 2007, 01:19:41 PM I hear ya. I've yet to finish Bioshock (almost done, though), I'm just getting into the beef of the Witcher, Kunark is right around the corner. Between those and a couple older titles I'm working through, I'm pretty well set for the rest of the year. Looking forward to GH3 on pc!
After the new year, grab a few of the titles that I didn't get (Crysis, maybe some others). Hopefully if they can ship GTA4:Console by April 08, we can get a pc version before xmas 08, Rockstar has taken 6 months for pc ports in the past. Maybe we'll see Mass Effect on the pc before the end of the decade :cry: |
