So hopefully I'll be getting a brand spanking new X-box come Christmas and so I need to ask a question (or 2).

I know the current selection of X-box titles (Halo, JSRF and DoA3 interest me the most) but what of the future games? On the Gamecube I know what game I'll be hoping to get in Christmas 2003, on the X-box I know of some game called Morrowind and the Halo sequel... what else is there? Why would I want them? What's so good about them? And what is Morrowind all about?

Come on persuade one of the forums largest Nintendo fans to get an X-box!

Project Gotham is the most realistic racing game i have ever seen, it even allows to to smash up lisenced cars such as the casual BMW Z3 to the aggressive Ferrari F50, with jaw dropping visuals and mouth watering replays its a hit.

Also with the huge list of Sega Games coming to the console, i just cannot wait!

Speaking of SEGA games: 'Panzer Dragoon Orta' is looking beautiful.
Other games beyond the ones mentioned that are looking special are:

*BC - another great-looking game by the creator of Black & White and Project Ego.

*Psychonauts - a cartoony adventure from Tim Schafer, who is renowned for humourous and original games like Grim Fandango and The Secret of Monkey Island.

*Steel Batillion - seen the size of that controller?!

*Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball - eye-candy in every sense of the word! :D

Jee i completely forgot House of the Dead was comming out on Xbox. I'll be getting that for sure, I loved it on my Dreamcast.

I can't help but notice that there are alot of Sega games on Dringos list, which is great to see.

Oh, add Splinter Cell to that list and it'll be even tastier. Along with Unreal Championship and Halo 2.

Then he didn't invent Sonic then, did he! :-P

Still, that's not a bad list of a achievements on a CV...
Blinx is sounding impressive.
Still, although the idea is intriguing, you can never tell if they've got "it" right until the game is finished...

GameCube screenshots and info has been released for Splinter Cell. I think you'll find it's quite official.
