Coming Attractions: Xbox 360

I recently completed "Batman: Arkham Asylum" that took many days to complete, but now have found myself in the unfavorable position of not having a game waiting for my attention. I mean sure, I could go back to any of the other games I own for another go-around; but I need a new experience. I'll have to wait until Christmas time to get my video game fill, but after doing some research I realized I have quite a few games to look forward to. Let's go through them one by one and see which ones will have me attached to my couch for a while.

Tekken 6- My favorite fighting game franchise has its next installment coming out in just over a week. For me, the game has been simple: beat it with every single character to unlock the secret ones, then beat the game with them as well, and then play through it's action mode just once. Believe me, this does take some time, but never gets dull.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed- Wait, this game has been out for some time now. Plus, I already own it for the Playstation 2. But hold on, this game coming out is different. Yes, it's the Ultimate Sith Edition we're talking about here. Along with the original game you get new levels in which to test out your awesome Force powers.......and I'll get to see the best version of the original.

Assassin's Creed II-The first game showed tons of potential, and whether you thought the first was phenomenal or just average, you'll no doubt be impressed with this one. Aside from the usual tasks, you'll be able to do much more, along with new acrobatic moves, weapons, skills, and side missions. This is one of those games that could keep you busy if you insist on remembering everything (those who've played the first game know what I'm talking about).

Bioshock 2- I know this game won't be out until February of '10, but this one is worth mentioning. The first game was critically acclaimed and a smash hit, including in my eyes. The story continues, but also comes with one important addition: multi-player. Now you'll be ablt to take on others with weapons and plasmids however you see fit. Already I've seen some incredible action sequences and gameplay that will blow you away.

These games are the cream of the crop. Probable will be great hits and will definitely find their way in my collection. Until then, I've got some Playstation 2 games that can give me a run for my money. Let's see, what can the next post be about? You know what, I leave the next one as a surprise. Now all you have to do is follow these simple words: entertain yourselves now.
