I've gone by the release dates from a competitor, simply because I trust their dates more than SR's :-D

All of these are down for March or April:

Doom 3
Conker: Live and Reloaded
Forza Motorsport
Timesplitters: Future Perfect
Rainbow Six 4: Lockdown
Far Cry: Instincts
Jade Empire
Rapala Pro Fishing
Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory
Super Monkey Ball Deluxe
Hitman: Blood Money
Worms 4: Mayhem

That's a lot of games. More than ten. And I'm unlikely to be finished KOTOR 2 by then either. No I haven't read the latest on them nor are they necessarily all on course for release. But I want them. And I'm going to need new shelves just to hold them all.

EDIT - Yes, I see it. Damn.

Game: You sure about FC: Instincts? Because I saw the display boxes in HMV (with complete boxart - front and back which usually means it's nearly done) with a March release date.

Thank god by April I'll have about £300 if I don't touch my bank much until then, I'll be spending a fortune on DS and Xbox games, tempted to pick up MGS3 as well.

Instincts is Christmas, or near enough. Pariah is back in May, now, I think. Although it looks mint. Hopefully it'll have a nice weight to the controls and speed. And be like HALO 2 without all the crap glitches. I want Fight Night, Conker and Chaos Theory, amongst others. Looks like I may accidentally have to change my mind about certain games after purchase.

Yes, I won them on Gameaday. Yes, GAME can 10-Day return them. ;)

Another game I REALLY want is Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath. Looks phemonenal. Can't wait. March the 4th is a big day. And this is just XBOX. GT4 and MGS3!!!!!

Bank = Drained!

Yeah, it has SMB1 and SMB2 and some new stuff on top of that. I'm looking forward to it. Overall I prefer less bright and happy games, but I was a Sega fan a long long time ago, and I have liked them on the Cube.

Whilst it would be nice to see things like Panzer Dragoon Orta on the Gamecube, I doubt it a lot. They didn't exactly sell well on the Xbox now did they?

I just had the impression it was one of Nintendo's Sega exclusives.

Not that it really matters though. The deluxe version I assume will incorporate the two GameCube games and so it's nice that more people will have the opportunity to play a more quirky, original game.

Would be nice if Sega winged a few Xbox games in the direction of the Cube though. Stuff like Panzer Dragoon Orta, while pretty old now, might find a market.

$$$$

Why else?

OXM will say that the Xbox introduced it to the world and is the greates**t thing ever.

Of course.

Anyway, Doom 3 is sh*t. Pure crap.

Pariah looks lovely. CT and TS3 look quality. Jade Empire too.

But, to be hones**t, really not that bothered at the moment.

How come Super Monkey Ball is coming out on Xbox?

Didn't realise that. I wouldn't have thought it would have much of a market.
