"Has it begun?"

This month OXM reviews Crazy Taxi 3, Baldurs Gate:DA, Hitman 2, The Thing, Madden NFL 2003.

Next month they reckon reviews of Colin McRae 3, Rocky, Timesplitters 2, Deathrow, Quantum Redshift, Morrowind (can't wait for this game) and others.

It seems to me that our wait is over. After stunnig launch games, there wasn't much to shout about. But now I think it has begun. Autumn is here (nearly) and the big games are starting to be released now.

LEt's just get the next few weeks out the way, and then we can play the sort of games that Xbox was designed for.

Bring it on!

X Box with 1 controller (or 2 if cash streches) and a copy of halo

X box Live pack (should be avalible soon)

ok games:

Splitter cell

MGS2 you know the errr x boxy one forget the full name D'oh
Dead or Alive 3
Steel batellion (spelt wrong but i aint got time for spelling)
Ghost recon
Counterstrike

damn my brain isn't working as usual so i missed loads out no doubt sav will fill the blanks, would put halo 2 down but that's ages yet. i was trying to list games avalible by at least december.

It's September the month when all 3 consoles get their ar$es in gear and start releasing the good games. Look at the releases, this Friday we have Tekken 3 (PS2) Resident Evil (GC) Buffy the Vampire Slayer (XBOX) and they're just the main games. 3 most likely AAA Titles, he run up to Christmas is gonna be one hell of a good time for console owners, especially Xbox and GC owners cause PS2 smells of wee :D

yeah well the GC smells of dogs mess, childish comments aside your right, this is when the games market starts moving again releasing better titles and it's when i start posting a little more yself cause i have something more to say than just GC sucks LOL.

Res shut up, Your getting on my nerves now. Although the GC is'nt my fave console, its still beats the PS2 by far....

Is this PS2 still around? Jeez.

Anyway Roll on November!

about time the good games came i'd say!!

Depends on your taste of games.

I doubt I will buy any of those games. Ill buy Morrowind for the PC insteas of X-Box though (Only because you can make your own items, quests and so on).

Theres only a few games I am waiting for across any of the consoles

-MK5 (X-Box)
-Smackdown: SYM (PS2)
-Buffy (X-Box)
-Some X-Box live games (Dont know which yet)
-Project Ego (X-Box)
-Sonic Compilation (Gamecube)

Yep autum is here and with brings some beauty of games. I mean in the issue there was not one but 2! Games put in to the elite catergary. Nfl 2003 will definatly be on my list it sounds amazing!! The one thing i dont understand is why donesn't a games maker bring a game out in summer? It would make sense as if you are only one of very few games coming out in the summer poeple will begin to get desperate and buy your game. If it is an amzing game it will seel more as people wont say well here is two amazing games and only have the money for one, what one shall i buy? They wouldn't face this if they brought out there game in summer, would they?


My games list is ever growing and i am trying to kep it to a bre minimum!!

TRansworld Snowboarding
RE
BC
Project Ego
Splinter Cell
Timesweeper
NHL 2003
Blinx
Moto GP

There is a few more buy i just cant think of them.

IT HAS BEGUN


*HE SAYS IN A SKY ONE ANNOUCER VOICE*

Yes, the games are finally riding into town - (on the back of a few donkeys it has to be said).

Hitman 2
Blinx
Splinter Cell
Panzer Dragoon Orta
The Thing
Morrowind
Toejam & Earl
