This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.

I'm not betting on that, considering that the title of the release is "Xbox 360 Launch Lineup Announced", when, in fact, it has not been announced. Seems like they're using semantics again, like the whole "every Xbox 360 will come with hard drive, wireless controller, blah blah".

i wonder when they'll have the time to develop a PS3 game for Izzy. 5 games from Bioware planned on Xbox360, 2 on PC - they usually release one game per year.

"The next-gen technology allows us to focus on developing an incredible visual experience with the unparalleled sensation of speed and adrenaline that is an inherent part of MotoGP," said THQ executive vice president of worldwide publishing Kelly Flock.

I think they copy and pasted the exact same quote for when MotoGP was announced for the original Xbox ;)

Holy shit awesome! It also says Splinter Cell 4 will make its debut on 360, so that is great news. Man, finally UPDATE TIME



It also said Oblivion would debut on 360, but the PC version is coming out at the same time (unless I'm misinformed).

Wow, 360 is getting trilogies. First Too Human and now this.

they learned from Sony :(
Only one graphics/gameplay engine to build, then release one game per year. Let's hope Too Human and Mass Effect dont share the same engine.

In PR quotes like this, console publishers tend to not consider the PC in the equation. Happens all the time when a console gets an "exclusive" that comes out on the PC too.

A trilogy? Sounds awesome. Although Jade Empire was less than stellar, I still have plenty of faith in Bioware and this is great news. We need media now.

Six weeks until launch and we still don't know what games are coming? Boy oh boy. It'll be like Christmas - walk into the store on launch day and wonder what's going to be there....(only to find all EA games). :lol

The bad news is that Sean Hargreaves (the lead dev on MotoGP 1 and 2) isn't working on it. The good news is that he works for MS now on XNA.

This is still my most anticipated 360 title though.

Ok, this update is shit, really. The bioware news is hot. But I NEED LAUNCH DETAILS.
Not just for me, I mean I need to tell my accounts what games are coming out. Sheesh. This is f'n ridiculous. The psp launch is looking super organized by comparison.

Well Too Human is definately using Unreal 3. Now I know Bioware has licensed Unreal 3 also, but they didn't say if this trilogy is using it.

I am disappointed based on the screens and video. MotoGP is one of the best looking racing games on Xbox. This looks marginally better than the current version on Xbox.

I am also completely lost in this mess of a site Gamespot has. It looks nicer, but it's not as practical as before. I want media organized by dates dammit! And get off your arses and provide an X05 section.

Mass Effect is UE3.

i hope this turns out to be a star control /starflight style space RPG... It's kind of a dead genre and i'd love to see it revived.

I am really dissapointed with these visuals =(

It doesn't really look bad. It looks like a cash in, that's the real dissapointment. On the other hand, we wouldn't see it for another year if it wasn't ...

Not a shred of gameplay. Bad voice acting. I mean art...bad art.
