Why, for a question about "Worst RPG Franchise", do three of the poll options have to do with games that aren't even franchises yet (LO, ME, Fable)? You can't say it's a franchise until there are at least 2 games out. Not only that, but Fable doesn't really qualify as a true RPG, and ME even less so. My vote goes to .hack//gu or whatever it is. Played one, it was garbage.

No More Heroes is supposed to be good. And this belongs in the recommendation sticky.Master_Saibot

I don't want any recommendations for what to get out of what's available in the event that I pick up a Wii, because I already know what games I want to pick up, having browsed Metacritic and heard about the really big releases. I just want to know what the big games in the future are. You can't really recommend games that haven't been released yet.

Just had my 360 RROD on me (had it since June '06, thought I was in the clear) and I might go Wii hunting to manange the time until it gets back from the shop. Part of my logic here is that if they happen to send me back a junk console that RROD's on me again, which isn't out of the question, it would just justify my Wii purchase even more. Anyway, looking at the Wii's library, the games that I would consider picking up if I actually got the console would be SMG, Zelda, Brawl, Metroid, and RE4. I haven't been keeping up on the Wii much, outside of when a AAA gets reviewed, so I was just wondering, what else does the Wii have in store for it? I would imagine Mario Kart Wii, but I can't think of anything else... anyone care to help me out?

Hey guys,

Just had my 360 RROD on me after having it since about June '06... I really thought I was home free, guess not. Anyway, my options now are either to send it in or pick up a new 360. The thing is that I really don't want to get shafted with an old 360. The one that just RROD'd on me, while a great system, was almost intolerably loud. I'd almost rather pick up a new, Falcon-equipped 360 with better cooling and a quieter drive than risk getting caught with an old refurbished hunk of junk that I'm just going to have to send back in in a few weeks. I already have a hard drive, HD cables, and two controllers, so I could pick up a Falcon arcade and just strap my hard drive in and have it be the same as a new, Falcon premium, or I could send my 360 in and pray. What do you think I should do?

Is the new BenQ drive the best one to hope for?

I love my 360, butI dont think itll matter, it willstill break down a lot. The 360 console itself is a piece of crap, period.hillelslovak

Well, I actually already have a 360, got it in June the summer after it launched, and it's generally worked very well, only had it seize up on me one time, maybe a year ago. However, I think it might be on it's last leg. The dvd drive has gotten progressive louder and the whole system has a habit of making sounds you wouldn't want to associate with an electronics device. I'd rather just pick up a new elite than spend 4-6 weeks getting my old guy replaced.

My main concerns here are RROD and noise. Can anyone with an elite here comment on this?

Thinking about picking up an elite... do they run cooler/quieter/less RROD prone?
