Ready to Rumble!!

It's the one year anniversary of my Xbox360. I have now been a Xbox360 owner for a whole year.

During this time, I laughed and laughed some more as I played Breath of Death VII: The Beginning, conquered Puzzle Quest, smashed Puzzle Chronicles, ran amuck in 'Splosion Man, did my duty as the protector of Gotham in Batman: Arkham Asylum and played numerous on numerous games of Tekken 6 online (hence my Xbox Live Sessions series). Oh and sold my soul to Ninja Gaiden II. All this and so much more.

I must admit I have never had this must fun with a console ever and I really need to thank my wife for getting it for me.

However with this Christmas, I now have the means to actually expand my library of games thanks to some well thought of presents. I must admit, my library of physical games is pretty small. I have Tekken 6, Gears of War (which I have bearly played) and Dead Rising (which I haven't even touched LOL). I do have a decent number of arcade games on my hard-drive tho and some indie games. But as I said before, my Xbox is going to get a sharp infusion of new games very soon. Here is a preview of what's to come.

Left 4 Dead: I have heard sooo much about this game and whilst I am not a big fan of the first person shooter, it has zombies and it's horror fueled so count me in. I might even do a dual run of this with Dead Rising.

Operation Darkness: A pretty obscure rpg from Atlus, I've been playing the demo and even through I am getting pwned ALL the time I don't mind it. I love my strategy RPG's tho (Hello Shining Force series) so this with the supernatural take on the WW II genre is something that caught my eye. It doesn't hurt it is dirt cheap too LOL.

Battle Fantasia: Now I got a new proper working stick (thanks wifey!), I definitely want to get some more fighting games on my Xbox other then Tekken. Battle Fantasia is another un-heard of game but it's got some decent reviews from people who actually played it and it's fantasy which is up my alley. It's also made by the BlazBlue guys/gals so hopefully it'll have some depth and a decent combo system.

Limbo: I played the demo way back in Summer and now it's going on sale I will actually pick it up. I really like the atmosphere of the game and it's very unique. I think I'll enjoy myself with this one.

Cthulu Saves the World: OMG! Out of all the games on my list, this is the one I want the most and have waited for the longest to play. Made by the same studio behind another indie game gem Breath of Death, CStW is going to be epic. I am so ready to play it. I might even do a walk-through once I get my capture software.

Costume Upgrade for Ninja Gaiden II: I know it's not a game BUT I'm going to happy rocking new clothes as I do my solo weapon runs for the Flails, Talons and Tonfas.

Thanks to everyone that made it happen. I'm ready to rumble for sure!

P.S. I should finished 'Splosion Man or Portal: Still Alive now. LOL I was purposely playing them slowly to really enjoy them and keep me going till I got new stuff but since I got a bus load of new stuff I don't want these gems to be left unplayed *cough* Dead Rising.

P.S.S. I'm aiming for an new Apocalypse Now clip to go up exclusively on this blog before New Years Day. Tho if I get my new games early... I don't know if it'll be so doable.
