Rented reach yesterday, only played briefly (quit before the battle rifle level).

The music is great, the visuals are alright (they feel like a launch title), the plot and dialogue is pretty weak so far. Gameplay feels different vs enemies, playing on the second highest difficulty setting. Have not played the multiplayer yet, will updatw tonight after doing so.

Played red dead redemption for a few days. Great sandbox and game concept, but unfortunately they did a poor job implementing the activities within that framework. I am hoping they step it up in the sequel, because it could be a blast with more going on.

Reach. Great game and graphics. Love the different "classes" had my first overkill last night that should have been 5.

IMO so far, I've only played on like 6 maps in 3hours of online...more maps or if they are in there, more variety please.

I thought the storyline took a nose dive in Halo 3. Probably grabbing Reach this weekend.

I didn't feel like starting a new thread for 2011 games, because well we have this thread as well as threads popping up for upcoming games.

I'm looking forward to FORZA 4. Haven't picked up FIFA11 yet.

I'm psyched for this one too, can't wait. Currently I'm playing the Open Beta for World of Tanks, and the game is kick ass. Go to their web site and sign up, it's worth at least an evening or two...just don't give it more time than that if you're busy cause it's seriously addicting.

Can someone explain to me why air strikes are a part of FPS games like CoD & MoH?

The latter would be an incredible game if it didn't multiply unbalanced players with a flurry of easily earned air-strikes. One time I chained together 4 straight air strikes because the missiles unlocked the next ones with the kills. I was doing this with a basic assault rifle, it must be so much easier sniping your way to 20/2 scores, all while hiding out of sight and out of the battle.

Maybe I'm too much of a Counter-Strike guy, but they really ruin an otherwise great game.

I think if implemented correctly, it would be better, but when CODMW:2 first came out, it was overboard. I can't remember if they did tone it down.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II

I'm only about 20 min in, but so far the meager reviews were on point. You are playing as Vader's apprentice who is conflicted between his mentor and serving the alliance.

The action is very repetitive and nowhere near as engaging as Jedi greatness should be, especially since you possess dark force powers like lightning.
