The old GG's, where have they gone. The only two reasons I can think of buying a 360 for are oblivion and gears (I'm not really a fan of tom clancy games anymore...not since the original rainbow 6 on the N64). The darkness, meh. The Ncaa games, meh. Guitar Hero 2, 90$. The darkness, meh. The art of creating a great sports game worth an 8.8 or higher rating on gamespot has dissappeared. It's actually sad, developers are more focused on graphics than gameplay. Anybody else agree?

The Darkness has great graphics and gameplay so I'm not sure what your point is considering you've probabaly never played it. If you want less graphics and more gameplay you should get a Wii and wait for some of the more immersive gameplay with motions. Just as a side note I have both systems so I'm giving you a honest and personal opinion. PSS Oblivion is and Gears will be both on PC, so grab those on that platform.

yeah i agree the problem is games like Gears and Halo and Oblivion to name a few have come out and now people are expecting all games to be that good and it just wont happen lower your standards and there are a lot of good games out there maybe not great but good enough once you play them.

Let me start off by saying...some of us are poor. I heard the darkness was short and it only got an 8.5 so it cant be that great. I saw some of the previews for it and it looked a little....well ridiculous.

By GS's definition, 8.5 IS great. Not every game needs to be a 9.0 or above to be worthy of your game time. So you may not want to buy 8.5 or lower games. Why not just rent them?

You will see more than enough "Good Games" this fall for the 360. Remember Microsoft's press conference?

First point, If you are looking for 9.0 games and above your list will be very short and perhaps you can purchase those and rent the lower ones. Just because you deem 9.0 games and higher worth playing and everything else sub par doesn't mean they suck. Secondly,according to your topic post you don't have a 360 as of yet and are already complaing about no good games. I suggest you save your money and purchase a cheaper console such as the Wii or one not at all. Gaming tends to be a very exspensive hobby at times even when renting.

I think he didn't spend any notice at all on E3. The good games are coming out on 360 in September, October and November.

I just bought GRAW 2 and I think the single player and the multiplayer is better than Gears and I have been playing it constantly. This is the game I think everyone should get!! :D

Good things take long times to happen.

Final Fantasy XII or Twilight Princess for example. Gran Turismo 4 or Gears of War. Most of the great games have been plagued with delays.

gears did not take a long time to happen. I dont care about whats coming out in the future...i care about whats out now. Just cause games look great (bioshock, halo 3 etc.) does not mean they will be great. The trailers/previews always look more polished and better than the actual game thats released. Remember all the hype for that GREAT GAME to be released, um what was it called,....um,.....Prey? Um Madden?
