Edit: Whoops, missed the "console" part of the topic.

My buddies and I are huge HMM3 dorks... too bad 5 isn't the same game play with better graphics.

I rented fall out 3 for a week and was super bored with it. Worst game I ever played. story wasn't bad, but it just got so darn confusing and no action at all. Trying to figure out how things work was just blah. I'm more into blowing things up and constant shooting/fighting. That's why I love the War games and sports games

Yeah, the entire Hitman series is pretty sweet. Can't wait for the new one, I want to see a Hitman game in true HD.

GTA IV is extremely overrated, it is a excellent technical exercise, but it isnt' very fun and gets boring. Beat it and your done. Saints Row 2 is way way way funner.

Wow, Fallout 3 is one of the best games ever. It is boring at first but it picks up and gets a lot more action. But you seem to be a FPS person.

I'm really enjoying Ghostbusters right now. Very fun, especially if you are a fan of the movies. The original cast did the voice work. The new Batman game (Arkham Asylum) looks wicked...check out the trailers on youtube. My fav 360 games of all though have to be any Call of Duty, Dead Rising, GTA 4 and Gears. I still love to break out the old N64 and rock some Goldeneye though!

That's what I heard too so I rented it. Played it for a good 10 hours... got into some village, had to blow up to bomb... got bored started killing people then they kept killing me. Then I kept respawning and they'd just skill me and I didn't want to restart so I just quit haha

That's the rumor. Edios is hard at work with the Batman game which release next month, so they will hype that game up as much as possible, then after everyone has bought it they will announce the next Hitman.

That is my guess anyway. They are supposedly working on Kane & Lynch 2 as well. Which sucks to hear because the first sucked, I hope Hitman comes before.

They've recently green-lit another Hitman movie so it's more than safe to assume a game is either in the works or will be shortly because they'll keep churning games from that franchise out as long as the Hitman brand relevant.

....Batman also looks crazy good. I'm picking up the collectors edition that comes with a batarang...

I should have added Saints Row 2 to my list. I bought it when it was released but could never really get into it, but then I started playing it again about a month ago and once you start playing it it's awesome. There are so many things to do and customization is very in-depth for cars and your character, it is alotmore fun than GTA but I like GTA's story and how realistic it is. Their both great games.

How are the Ghost recon series? I've played the old ones ages ago on the computer but not on the Xbox

Saints Row 2 is what GTA IV should have been, ie. bonkers and fun. I hate how there is nothing to do in GTA IV after you beat the game. There is SOOO much to do in SR2, and you can screw around a lot more.

I am excited for the new Hitman movie, I actually liked the first one, and I hope Olga Kurylenko is in again too. I know they greenlit it but I think the release will be late 2010, or early 2011, which would suck because than another 1-2 years for the next Hitman.

Speaking of Eidos and movies, they're making a Kane and Lynch movie as well, and Bruce Willis is in it. I assume he is either Kane or Lynch (I forget who is who).

And yeah, the new batman game looks awesome.

Battle field 1943 is my game right now. Great value for $20, really well balanced and the terrain destruction is really good. Levels just turn into lumpy piles of ruble.
