nah i found mass effect 2 really tedious, i could never properly get into it. my vote goes to gears or bioshock.

not so much anymore. i did before when i first started on xbox live but its getting kinda full now and most of them i dont even play with.

i guess you mean based on youtube videos right? i dunno, theres a group called reasons edge which i think you should check out. N0Handlebarz is an awesome player and a really cool guy aswell. check it out :D

awwwww yeah! thats some high quality gaming right there.....its dog s**t

nah i didnt buy it this time, i bought the other 2 and since i bought the last one ive barely played the game except in combat training because the online is rubbish. i went back to mw2 and im thoroughly enjoying it

the only games i know of that use lock picking are oblivion, fallout and thief. was it thief? i dont really recall what locpicking was like on that game.

oblivion for me, bought it once, hated it, sold it, bought it again, love it :P

ah ok no worries, ill keep that in mind. look forward to playing with you sometime.

TheYorkshireTom - im english im afraid :L i seem to remember yours being something like kibbles but i dont know what it was exactly

of course you can predict....thats why its called predicting and not reading the future. i think skyrim will do really well and definately will be up there with the greats, it looks about 100 times better than oblvion and that game is freakin awesome. like ive said before gears 3 will most likely be my personal favourite this year. but portal 2 was awesome if a little short, dead space 2 wasnt as great as the first but it was still epic.

hmmm its hard to say how mw3 and battlefield 3 will do. im pretty sure a tonne of people will buy mw3 just because of the name but GOTY? nah.

battlefield 3 will be great but im still not sure because i havent seen 360 footage yet and well it was created for PC primarily so console gamers are gonna get shafted no matter what.theres alot of good games coming out his year and somealready out so its hard to pin point which one will be above the rest.

Dead space 2, portal 2, LA noire, mortal kombat, Gears 3, Battlefield 3, mw3, batman arkham city, AC revelations, skyrim and im sure there are more but thats alot to choose from. and then theres stuff like uncharted 3 and whatnot. good year.
