Some of the new titles seem ok. Some seem a bit boring or gratuitous. At least they aren't just sitting back on their accolades.

Fallout 3 could be good, I liked the first Gears of War, so I'll probably snag the sequel, I may grab the newest Guitar Hero or Rock Band, and Left 4 Dead...well, they had me at zombies. :D

Fallout 3 is gonna suck. I hate post-apocalyptic games.

The first two were fantastic, though, as was their precursor Wasteland back in '88. But they weren't from a first person perspective, and we'll see if they've watered the whole concept down to a FPS with RPG elements, or if it's a fresh perspective on the series.

I'll pick up GH: World Tour, but I don't think I'll be buying the drums or mic. Once I saw that it had Crazy Train AND Mr. Crowley, it made the game portion of it an insta-buy for me.

Rock Band sucks. A lot.

Double/Alt-strumming doesn't respond right.

The hammer-ons and pull-offs are crap.

There's sections where the notes are so close together that it's really just physically impossible to do.

Because of superior downloadable content, sure....but I'd prefer better functionality.

And I greatly prefer the GH:WT setlist to the RB2 one.
