A big bunch of crap

There's bog all out at the moment that i actually want, it's so frigging boring...

Let's just go through the list:

Blacksite: Area 51: Woo, just what the world needs, ANOTHER generic shooter.

Looney Tunes: Acme Arsenal: Load of wank.

Mass Effect: I would, but having a child i just don't have the time needed to devote to a game like this any more, it's one of those 100-hour games so bollocks to it.

Kane & Lynch: Saw a video review on Bravo the other day. They weren't impressed and they said that you'll just repeat most of the levels about 10 times for each one due to the amount you'll get killed and then have to restart the level only really completing it when you've worked out the pattern of all the baddies. Bit upset about this one as it looked really good.

Guitar Hero III: Doesn't interest me in the slightest, that novelty has passed, roll on Rock Band.

Need for Speed ProStreet: Christ, another sodding street racing game. How many do i need to play in one lifetime. Need for Speed: Most Wanted was the best one, everything else was shite.

Ace Combat 6: Not really that bothered about this. Dogfights always sound good in theory but in practice they just get boring and tedious very quickly. Never had one that i'd actually stick with for more than a few goes.

And you'll be annoyed to know that there's absolutely frig all coming out between now and Exmas that might possibly be good, there's a new soldier of fortune game out next week but whoopie doo, doesn't exactly fill me full of excitement like Skate did.

Ho hum, looks like it's back to being bored on Assassin's Creed or getting frustrated with Smackdown ladder matches until Xmas day.

keeeey-rist. Ladder matches suck. they do. They reeeally do.
The trick is to let the other dude drain most of the meter then knock him off the ladder...hit a smackdown (or, better yet, lob him out of the ring) then climb the ladder & grab the belt/briefcase/whatever.
Failing that...just avoid 'em.
Hate Ladder matches, me.

So come on guys, Sdown vs Raw??? Should I be picking up a copy and before DM pipes up, not yet but once I have finished Ass Creed and Lego Star Wars!!
And JB I understand that kids cramp the Xbox time, however I would rather play a game that takes 100+ hours to complete and gives me value for money (as long as it's worth playing) over some really shit hot game that is over in 4-6 hours (COD4 Single Player - although Multi Player is going to extend that).

But, like most people these days, I have the attention span of an impatient gnat on speed who needs a wee so i'll get bored with 100 hours of play about 15 hours through just like i did with knights of the old republic, oblivion, twilight princess, etc...
