"What a line-up.....!"

I've just been looking through the new XBM mag, issue 22, and the line-up of new X-Box games for this year and the beginning of next looks fantastic.

Project Gotham 2
Half-life 2
Freedom Fighters
Colin McRae 4
Conker: Live and Uncut
Driver 3
True Crime
Armed and Dangerous
Star Wars: KOTOR
Soul Calibur 2
Broken Sword
Mafia
Worms 3D
Dead or Alive 4 and DOA online
MOH: Rising Sun
Doom 3
Halo 2
Fable
Shenmue 3
Full Spectrum Warrior
Splinter Cell 2
Tony Hawks Underground

Everyone of those games look to be winners and extremely enjoyable games, and if the rumours are true we could also see a port of Vice City on the way to X-Box, and in this particular mag, they say that GTA3 will be included with Vice City. So to me the future of the X-Box looks very bright indeed and I'm really glad I got it now.

I can't wait till christmas then if all of these new games are coming out. It might even be the best christmas ever this year for me.

Posting that in EVERY thread makes it look REALLY genuine.

Think it through you prat.

Cool. I might *Cough*Buy it then... ;)

Splinter Cells' opening theme was ripped from the big fight scene near the blood bath in Blade 2.

Oh and Goldfinger's 'Spokesman' track was a damn good choice for TH4.

Iron maider are and always will be poor. (Excluding that wickerman song they did).

Metal Opera? No thanks. :D

Heaviest music I've heard in a game was Spineshank's singles in MX Superfly. A good choice in my opinion.

Splinter Cell's intro music was damn good too. 'Calling all freaks' or something :)

The music for TH games has gotten steadily worse with each new game.

Tony Hawks game have absoloutly fook all to do with Gothic stuff.

Tony Hawk's games are based more around Punk Rock and Nu-Metal rather than heavy, depressing stuff like Slipknot and Ramstein. Besides, the Xbox versions support customised soundtracks, so you can play whatever you want. The overall feel of the game is a lot more laid back and amusing, too - far from 'gothic'.

I haven't had any problems with framerate on State of Emergency. Granted i've only played it in 2 player, but I was suprised that it didn't slow down once, what with all the smashage on screen.

State of Emergency = ownage in multiplayer

Speaking of Serious Sam, I got that this morning for £10. It rocks my banana, can't wait to play it in co-op.
