Top 5 games? You'll probably get a few different answers, but here is my list.

Tomb Raider Legend
Condemmed
Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter
Test Drive Unlimited
NHL 07

As for RPG's, there is Oblivion and Enchanted Arms for now. Both offer different styles. Enchanted Arms is a Japanese style with turn based combat and random battles.

Oh, and don't forget the Xbox Live Arcade games as well. There are a ton of fun games you can get for cheap from the Xbox Live Marketplace.

Sonic the Hedgehog demo is out. I think it totally stinks like every 3D Sonic game. It does look good and runs super smooth but as usual the camera stinks, it can't keep up with Sonic and the camera turning is ultra slow. I don't like it at all but then again like I said.. i hated every 3D sonic game. They simply don't have the crisp, fun and simple gameplay like the excellent Genesis Sonic games.

First X06 announcement - a new Banjo Kazooie game from Rare.

BOOOOO I never liked any of those Rare scavenger hunt games. What I want is a next gen Snake Rattle n' Roll!!

Thanks for your recommendations, just had a quick look at the reviews of Condemned, sounds like my kind of game. Will definitely be picking up Test Drive Unlimited too.

I prefer the Japanese style turn based RPG's, hoping plenty of these surface soon.

Not sure. I know they are the same ones from the Dragon Quest series though.

Sweet - they are doing a live demo of Assassin's Creed right now.

Halo Wars?!

 

[Queasy]

They showed "Halo Wars" at the end. No gameplay but it was still drool worthy!

 

[ivol07]

Geez, MS really had some good announcements this time. Now if all this stuff would just come quicker I would be happy. I've been playing Street Fighter more than anything else lately.
