Fable 2

Fallout 3

Dead Space

Saint Row 2

Left 4 Dead

Gears 2

Silent Hill: Homecoming

Mortal Combat vs. DC Universe

Need For speed: Undercover

Prince of Persia

Tomb Raider: Underworld

And that is just Oct-Nov releases! Seriously...this is truly like dying and going to gamer heaven. I have no idea where to even begin in the prioritization of all these amazing titles about to be unleashed upon us. This list covers it all, action, rpg, fps, casual, and knee deep diaper wearing feed bag strapping on total immersion game types. I can't remember a release wave like this ever! Is anyone else seriously excited about the next 2 1/2 months? What games are top contenders for your library? I need to know.  Leave a comment about it.

On a personal note, I survived day 1 of CrossFit Gymnastics certification training today. It was awesome! Learned so many amazing new techniques and applications for things like pull-ups, ring work, core conditioning, L-sits (bars and rings), bar drills, warm-up, and stretch routines. My body is so smoked right now and my hands feel like hamburger from all the bar and ring work. Day 2 starts in the early AM tomorrow and promises to hold more of the same and some advanced stuff. I'll probably blog a little about it tomorrow and post some cool pics, even though it doesnt really have anything to do about video games. Next weekend is another CrossFit certification I am attending. If you can't tell..I've become a huge fan of this program. So much so I am looking into opening up my own CrossFit gym after I retire out of the Corps in 4 1/2 years. Gotta do something!

Thanks for reading!

Yep, i don't know what game publishers are thinking. Sales simply aren't going to be what they could hav ebeen for those titles if they had have spread their dates out a bit. I boiled the list down to fable 2, gears2, left4dead. I was going to get fallout 3 when it was coming out the 1st week of oct. But the bumped it to release same week as fable 2 and i don't need two RPGs in teh same week and i really don't need either one two weeks before Gears releases. But Fable 2 will have coop so that's my pick, i can play antisocial fallout 3 anytime. Your list leaves off EndWar which i was going ot get until they bumped it to same week as L4d. I've been ehavily involved in beta testing that game and it is excellent but they screwed themselves with another bump. It's a new game as well, so i don't think it's going to sell very well in the window they've bumped it to. COD5 is also off your list. I'm not getting it becasue i don't want to go back to WW2 after i saw how good Modern Combat could be. The 4 player coop is the only thing going for it but L4D has that already so i'm skipping cod5. I imagine a lot of other people will as well. TombRaider i will rent since it has no multiplayer but it does look excellent. Ghostbusters also not on your list i would buy if it were coming out. But so far, i'm not sure if it is or not. I think they need a publisher. The rest of the games on your list weren't on my list of buys .
