Ooh that faceplate is nice. I'd love to pre-order this but I reckon the only way I can afford it is by trading some old GC stuff in and a few 360 games. Looks bloody good though

Was in HMV the other day and saw this for pre-order. I thought about it for the PC but it's due out whilst I'm away, so I'll just wait until I get back. I'm hoping it's going to be the game to show off all this expensive hardware I've put together.

Having said that, Lost Planet looks pretty good - looking forward to playing it properly soon (just installed it and messed about a bit yesterday).

This is what will finally get me to buy and xbox. As much as I love gamining I just can't afford to keep upgrading my PC all the time. For this I think realistically it would be time for a whole new system. New PC or 360, I think the 360 will win.

Same thought process as me when I first got the 360. With dual-platform games becoming seemingly more prevalent for PC and 360 you'll be saving a bundle. Bioshock and GTA IV will probably require serious PC upgrades, maybe even twice when you consider the release date for the latter. Plus Halo 3 is only on the 360 and that'll almost certainly be a must-buy game for the year!

Been interested in this for a while now. I think my aging pc could cope with a fresh install of xp, maybe. Its no surprise that these games are due at the same time as a refresh from Nvidia is coming out.

Not sure what res/quality my x1900xtx will run it at. I can see it struggling running native on my 24" dell
