Which (great) Holiday Games will get ignored this year?

The thing is Left 4 Dead is an original IP. Sure it's from Valve, and many pc gamers worship the ground they walk on: but on the consoles...

A.) Orange Box was able to sell well do to the Half Life Name. Just speculation, but I'm sure it has some truth.

B.) Many Orange Box Owners are probably upset about the lack of updates their PC brethren get. And get for free.

C.) Who cares about Left 4 Dead, we got TeH GEARS!

While I am getting it for PC, I do feel bad that the few 360 owners who are genuinely excited about Left 4 Dead, might be the ONLY 360 owners excited.

Wait why do people think a Shooter will do bad on the 360?

THe Orange Box sold a million units on the 360.

SHooters sell millions on the 360 and I could see Left 4 Dead and Gears of War 2 both selling millions on the 360....

Sure L4D won't put up Gears numbers

and sure OB didn't put up Halo numbers, but they were/will be million sellers. How is that ignored?

I honestly think more nonshooters will have tough luck this year....

Although yes I picked Project Origin for my commercial flop.

left 4 dead wont sell its too online based, the orange box sold not because of TF2 and its 5 maps but because of portal and half life

Actual TF2 is quite popular, it was one of the reasons why I bought the 360 version and also was the reasons my pals (with along the other games) that bought it. They play that over more than the other two.

Actually I very excited about the 360 version, I have a grand bunch of friends will will be picking it up on tht version and I am excited to play it with them. I going to be getting both PC and 360 version because of that. Yes, people on 360's TF2 wish they get more from valve, I hear that alot, but they still play the heck out of it. My buds plays as much as TF2 as Gears.

TF2 is far from popular it has horrible lag and 1 match at a time
