As for the games... I think there are like 20 total, and only 3 or 4 are worth buying, a couple few worth renting. Just not much to choose from yet. Which is dumb because it's been out for a while.

Rumor has it the 360's price is going to drop to like $299 soon, which makes it almost tollerable to purchase... assuming some friggen games ever come out.

There are some pretty cool looking games on the horizon. There are a few good games that are actually getting pretty good reviews on their own merit (instead of the "its pretty good for right now" metric). Dead Rising and Chromehounds are the two I hear about a lot, and a lot of people consider them almost good enough to buy the system for, but I'm not entirely convinced just yet.

Dead Rising is fun, and pretty. I've heard from friends that Chromehounds is only worth a rental. But I have yet to decide for myself.

Nick Koan · 2006-09-05, 11:51 AM

Yeah, I dunno. I'm just going off of internet buzz since I haven't bought a 360 yet. Chromehounds is supposed to be good if you like to get into the online play and do the whole clan thing. Otherwise, I've heard the single player is pretty short.

I read a few reviews on it. The one thing they all mentioned was that it was slow in between playing. Like load times and such. They also said that this game will appeal to people who like customizable stuffs because there is A LOT you can do to your robit. I'll prob rent it this weekend or something and let you know what my thoughts are.
