So there I was, having a brief and well needed tidy up of my desk area to make room for my sketchbook, and I noticed my xbox sitting there, unplayed for weeks and looking decidely despondant. "Its ok!" I exclaimed, "Halo 2 is just around the corner!!11!". Hearing this news seemed to cheer my Xbox up no end, with it even performing a sort of disc tray dance of delight.
However, moments after undignifyingly shoving my xbox in a drawer not to be touched until 11/11, a thought hit me like a tonne of xbricks. "After halo 2, just wtf is there being released on xbox?!" Its a question that deeply unsettled me for a few seconds, perhaps even a minute.
Throughout the xbox's lifespan theres always been some huge game on the horizon that I've eagerly awaited i.e Halo 2, Fable, Outrun 2. However once the holy day of 11/11 comes and goes, what have we got? Forza is the only game I can think of, and even that might end up being a typically overhyped piece of gash.
This seems to be an xbox only problem for me too. With VJ2, Ico 2, GT4, RE4, Lumines and Ridge all being released on various platforms.
This might just be a personal thing, but I am honestly unaware of a single game that I'm looking forward to on xbox. So my question is this...Is this a sign that xbox is reaching the end of its lifespan, that there is a seriously baron patch in the xbox release schedule , or that I have no idea what the **** I'm talking about?
