"New Releases Thread"

So, the season to be emptying the bank account and credit card is rapidly approaching upon on us, as the summer weather disappears it's replaced by the glow from tv screens showing the latest games.

Unless someone memorised them, I'd say there is far too many new releases for Xbox to remember for the run up to Christmas.

So, what have you all got on preorder (don't say where from) and what are you most looking forward to ?

At the moment I've got Soul Calibur 2, Ghost Recon Island Thunder, Conflict Desert Storm 2 and Star Wars Knights Of The Old Republic preordered and the other ones I want are Otogi, Project Gotham 2 and...hmm forgot.

Seeing as we all like different games then we can kickstart each others memories or maybe learn of a game we don't no about.

A lightly lame topic, but we're not exactly overflowing in here y'know ?

Er, I'd say:

Otogi
Star Wars KOTOR
Morrowind [expansion]
XIII
Broken Sword

And some others I can't recall...

True Crime:Streets of L A is out on 7th November, and I've got that pre-ordered, and I'll also be getting Fifa 2004, and Amped 2 whenever it comes out.

Haven't actually started the innevitable coming-up-to-Autumn-and-Christmas-pre-orderage yet, but I will be pre-ordering...

Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding 2
Conker: Live & Uncut
Doom III
Halo 2
Project Gotham Racing 2

Obviously, not all of these are gonna be out before Christmas, but I'll be pre-ordering them in the next few months anyway.

"6 multiplayer modes online and offline + downloadable content"

Everyone add XIII to you list.

Going to pre order Star Wars KOTOR soon as I can afford it! Others Im interested in at the moment are WWE Raw 2, Project Gotham 2 and Star Wars Jedi Academy (whenever its out, November I believe)

Live support = Yes.

Forgot about SWAT, it's supposed to have voice activated/controlled team members using the live headset, and of course its multiplayer over Live as well.

D'oh forgot about Conflict Desert Storm 2, that's a must buy. Oh and maybe XIII if it has Live support, if not i'll get it for Cube.

Oh and maybe WWF Raw 2, though I reckon WX9 will be enough lycra clad men for me this year.

Ya don't need Ghost Recon to run Thunder Island or whatever it's called.

I want

Star Wars: KOTR
SWAT: Global Assault
Jedi academy (not sure when it's coming out)
Project Gotham 2 (maybe)

That's all i can think of right now, nothing that I really, really have to get until next year really.

I'll be looking into any game though that have Xbox Live support....as long as they're not American Football.

WWE Raw 2 looks worth getting. FIFA 2004 I'll probably get. And all the others you have mentioned.

You don't need the original GR to play Island Thunder, I'm sure.
