The line between addiction and variation

//// MONEY WELL SPENT? DEBATEABLE ////

PRE-ORDER

£40 x 4
These are just some of the anticipated games
One in particular may spill over to 2012

After seeing the trailers: I've seen a movie like this before. Not sure which one


The Chicago Code trailer: "You think you can change how this job gets done in Chicago!"
Just as the investigation tv series, this guy in the image is trying to change things
So its not just a shooter, theres's an element taken from tv or real life

This game was intended for the next generation gaming console
Xbox720, PS4...whatever name they call it

Game is ahead of its time

Its really about the graphics
I would put on sub titles if I could...maybe not



FULL PRICE
£35 minimum x3
2011 late 2010 releases

Music coupled with the gameplay and story give it a movie experience
If you're not into the Sci-fi power ranger-ish suits; you'll quickly get past that


Pleasing to the eye
"Lets you have fun whilst feeling smart"
Looks good and you feel good, why not


Great voice acting throughout = good mini stories
Engaging combat



HALF PRICE
£20 x12
late 2009/2010 releases


JRPG

JRPG
A new combat system to video games, to learn

In Angels & Demons they're Hassassin's
That title is better suited for an Asian protogonist like Altair
Medieval action world
: first part to Hassassin's Creed 2

Second part to Hassassin's Creed 2

Western shooter

Sci-fi shooter, conversational ladder game

Stealth action
Forget superheroes

Extreme liberalism
Embraces the weirdness of a Jgame with shine

Die Hard Action movie experience
Destroy anything

Jason Bourne style with conversational ladder
Rome to Taipei to The Agency
Worldwide conspiracy



A natural game
Cocky voice acting make it natural

Horror where you're not scared
Horror where you're doing the scaring



DISCOUNT GAMES

-£5 x2
-Fairly old but still good


-Or GTA4 and Tony Ballard seperately
-Rockstar unspoken motto: Easy to learn, difficult to master
-Violent on the surface, mastery underneath


Swords and sorcery world


CONSOLE

-£150

-varies depending on time of year


All these games are great, if not the best for the Xbox360. Its possible for a first time buyer to buy most of these titles in one great purchase (£500+) but that could be seen as a sort of addiction. Thing is to have one game isn't quite what I'm looking forward to if I were to buy a 360
