07 Tue • BURNOUT REVENGE
10 Fri • GHOST RECON 3: ADVANCED WARFIGHTER
10 Fri • BATTLEFIELD 2: MODERN COMBAT
31 Fri • TEST DRIVE UNLIMITED
Those 4, probably.
And if I can only afford 3, then I'll be dropping Test Drive from the list.
Don't get me wrong, I want more than these 4 from the list, but it's just never going to happen due to money, or lack of.
backin-strachan
21/Feb/06, 05:34 PM
Might get TEST DRIVE cos I really like the look of that. PGR3 beater in my opinion

Is Ninety-Nine being released outside of Japan?
just Jam Man
21/Feb/06, 05:51 PM
GRAW and Dead rising just because the new trailer looks awesomeness!
07 Tue • BURNOUT REVENGE
(as a raceoholic that I am, this is a must-buy!)
10 Fri • GHOST RECON 3: ADVANCED WARFIGHTER
(looks way too good to miss out)
10 Fri • BATTLEFIELD 2: MODERN COMBAT
(about time the war shooters got out of the time capsule and went modern!)
10 Fri • FIGHT NIGHT ROUND 3
(it does look good, and the demo was fun, but I'm not sure about this one yet...)
10 Fri • NHL 2K6
(I usually go for the EA Sports version, but I can't wait that long for it)
17 Fri • THE OUTFIT
(thinking about this one as well but I'm not sure yet)
31 Fri • ALAN WAKE
(looks stunning and besides, "Condemned" scares the crap outta me so I need to go for something a little lighter)
31 Fri • TEST DRIVE UNLIMITED
(did I mention I'm a raceoholic?)

21/Feb/06, 06:04 PM
Getting GRAW and Dead rising. Maybe oblivion if I can afford it and Ill get the outfit if the demo is any good

Is Ninety-Nine being released outside of Japan?
Yeah I believe so it was in a magazine but not till 07 though. It looked absolutely out of this universe though.
I suggest getting Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter and the new Burnout if you only have the money to buy two games. The new Burnout looks really great and exciting. Burnout 3 in 2004 was such a suprised success, it competed with Project Gotham Racing 2. I know most of you guys have put Project Gotham Racing 3 first in your heart for a racing game (I have done the same) but you should still try the new Burnout. I don't know much about Oblivion but it is intriguing me. Thank god I have been saving up alot of money so I can afford games from the Second wave and PS3 whenever that monster comes out.
Raisedbyflames
21/Feb/06, 06:41 PM
my advice is to play the demos on the marketplace if there is any
backin-strachan
21/Feb/06, 06:42 PM
Burnout is really good fun and I only played TAKEDOWN but I love the mode where you just keep going and see how many cars you can smash until your out.Thats class
Might get SUPER MONKEY BALL for my wee sis;)
Raisedbyflames
21/Feb/06, 06:45 PM
thats takedown mode at least its called that on my psp version
Raisedbyflames
21/Feb/06, 07:03 PM
ill have that in all ad that to my list
I will probs get all the good ones :) GR:AW is looking likely. Dead Rising looks great fun as does Elderscrolls. N3 looks good (btw, there is supposed to be a demo on Japanese Marketplace soon as well.) Battlefield was fun on the xbox but I am unsure if it will be able to beat GR:AW for pure army based, tactical fun. I will be getting Burnour 360 as well :) Gawwww....I may just get them all so I dont feel left out on Live :D

I would say that about half of those you listed won't come out in March and some of those like Blue Dragon and Lost Odyessey havent even had a confirmed release date and Alan Wake Doesnt even have a publisher yet.
WACCOE
21/Feb/06, 08:35 PM
GR: AW
Fight Night Round 3
Alan Wake
Then, when the price drops on eBay NBA 2k6 and The Godfather. :)
backin-strachan
21/Feb/06, 08:36 PM
SAINTS ROW isnt out for a long while.Thats the game I wanted the most but GHOST RECON AW will surely suffice
Wrath82
22/Feb/06, 11:41 AM
What about Far Cry?
Far Cry: Predator is scheduled for Q2 2006, so it probably won't come out in March.
I would say that about half of those you listed won't come out in March and some of those like Blue Dragon and Lost Odyessey havent even had a confirmed release date and Alan Wake Doesnt even have a publisher yet.
I just listed the games that appear in 360Monster Release Dates (http://www.360monster.com/releases.php) section - which, IMO, has the most trustworthy dates around. Anyway, if you have more accurate info, please post it. :)

Looks like GRAW will be a huge hit. (Y)
One more candy for you - considering the average price of 360 games (60€ - 60$ - 40£), the expected money investment, in the month of March, of JUST US 17 people is: about 4.380€ - 4.380$ - 2.295£ !!! :p
well done w82,we could try to find out how much money do we here at monster have used on the 360.
07 Tue • BURNOUT REVENGE
10 Fri • BATTLEFIELD 2: MODERN COMBAT
10 Fri • DEAD RISING(maybe)
17 Fri • THE OUTFIT
24 Fri • THE GODFATHER
24 Fri • FRAME CITY KILLER
31 Fri • ALAN WAKE
31 Fri • FINAL FANTASY XI
Will wait to see the review on Dead Rising incase it's too repetitive.

GRAW looks like it will be replacing PDZ as our get-together game of choice, come its release date...
YUS! :D
It makes sense that Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter was what eeveryone put on the top of their list. This game has been really hyped up by everybody simply because it looks so darn good. Also the fact that Tom Clancy promised us the same Online Multiplayer experience which is just great, because as of right now the Xbox 360 doesn't have a true online multiplayer that makes you addicted to the game for months (yes like Halo 2). When it does come out, I can see this game surpassing Call of Duty 2 in sales. But then again Call of Duty 2 was the most successful Xbox game since Halo 2, so it will be hard feat but I think that it is going to pull it off.

Lets hope so ey!
But on the money investment job, i'll only end up getting gthe games off eBay for probably about 35pound, as 50pound is absolutely ridiculous. :unsure:
Can I ask guys, is Ghost Recon really that good? I'm new to the xbox scene having never had an original xbox. If I wasn't to go online with it, would I miss out on a lot?
Cheers
AfroJoe
22/Feb/06, 07:36 PM
Well, no-one knows if it's really all that great yet, because there are no reviews of it.
It does look astonishingly good, though, so I would recommend it, yes. I happen to be in the same situation as you and never had an original Xbox (and I've also never owned a Tom Clancy game - Ghost Recon or whatever), so I'm knew to both of these things. I'll still definitely be getting this game, though, and really can't wait for it.
WACCOE
22/Feb/06, 07:36 PM
Erm, yeah, you probably would miss out as a lot of people are buying simply for the online play. However, the single player mode will also be great, so will definateyl worth the money in my opinion. :)
Okay, cheers. I'll buy a few magazines and read up on it, seems to be getting a lot of hype along with Elder Scrolls, both of which I don't have much of a clue about to be honest. Still can't get online so I guess that will have quite an influence.

Mez-You need to get 'Elder scrolls oblivion', it is a single player sandbox rpg.
Apart from making great looking games, Bethesda also make the best rpg's out there...check this site out for info
http://www.elderscrolls.com/home/home.htm
Ps-Its the main reason that I am buying a 360 in March.
'GRAW'-I dont know too much about this game other than it looks very good.
I did own Ghost recon 1 & Island thunder on the origonal Xbox and would describe it as an anal war game, in the vein of operation flashpoint or Rainbow 6, but geared more towards multi-player.Would reccomend.
I was planning on getting 'Oblivion' & 'COD2' with my 360, but will probaly be getting 'Graw' instead of 'COD2'
Benj-I was born in Winchester and lived nearby in Andover for a while. I still visit there often and plan to move back this summer :)

Out of all those games, I'm surprised GRAW is the 'maybe'. Coppola blasted the Godfather game, it's definitely not something I would buy when it releases.

If you have enough money, I suggest you to buy Call of Duty as well, 'cos it's the best war FPS at the time (not counting GRAW of course). It's definitely something you should try.
As for Elder Scrolls, well, it's the wet dream of any 1st person-RPG lover. :D

I bought GRAW yesterday, but it got backordered, so I guess i'll have to wait a little bit to get it. I'm thinking about buying another game too, but not sure which one.

11/Mar/06, 02:39 PM
I got GRAW and FN3 yesterday and will get The Godfather on the day of release again, it's shocking two games cost me £100, I think I am going to stick with play.com now, HMV are a bunch of money hungry *******s. play.com would've saved me £20 :(
I will be getting Top Spin 2 next month but I doubt I will get anymore games apart from the two I listed.
Is Burnout good RollerCoasterRider?
I'm not sure anymore what I'll get, I have to finish some of the games I have now!
