To be honest Two Worlds will probably last me until Christmas, I already preordered. There are 9 others that I'm fiercely tempted by (Blue Dragon, Eternal Sonata, MotoGP 07, Halo 3, PGR4, Fatal Inertia, Blacksite: Area 51, Oblivion GotY, Bioshock) but I'm not sure I'll have any time to play them all :( so might add them to a Chrimbo wishlist or pickup next year when I'm all Two Worlded out.
Although I already have Oblivion, all the extras on marketplace add up to £34.50 if you want the fullest version possible, GotY edition includes them all and with any luck Tesco will probably price it at £19.99 or something, assuming it gets a Euro release, so I'm holding off downloading from the Marketplace.

Aren't those US release dates?
Flatout: Ultimate Carnage has been out a while...I've been playing it and it's fairly good!

Tiger 08 is being developed by a different EA studio I believe, which means it's a slightly different direction for the series.
I never had any problems with 07. I guess I was one of the lucky ones.

These two I'm hmming and haaing over. When I played the Ignition demo, the first thing it reminded me of was the 'make ONE mistake and you start again' type gameplay in the older Stuntman games, which was very annoying. This time around though the replays look really, REALLY good so you have more of an incentive to keep trying. Nonetheless, it's still frustrating. So not sure.
As for Tiger, 07 was intensely frustrating due to the freezing issues which seemed to occur randomly, there were a lot of posts about this over at EA Support but no answers. I'll probably hold off until it's been out a few months then check various forums to see if it's running properly and not buggy. Then I'll probably buy.

I'll probably get Stuntman Ignition, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08, Project Gotham Racing 4 and Halo 3. Also, Sensible Soccer comes out on the 29th August I believe.
