Xbox!

My Xbox 360 suffered the RRoD a few weeks ago, though after two whole years it was only slightly annoying.

So, I sent it off and yesterday got a replacement, much quicker than I expected, and I was hoping for a replacement because my previous had a problem with scratching discs when it was standing up, so all good really, especially with a free month of Live Gold subscription.

So, having an Xbox again, I'm back to thinking that really, there aren't any games that I'm looking forward to this year.  Last year there were loads, this year only a few that I'm even vaguely, possibly interested in buying.  I really liked both Dirt and Grid, so Dirt 2 will be good, though I don't know whether/when I will buy it.  Mass Effect 2 of course, though I'm not really sure when that's coming out.  There's also going to be Fallout New Vegas in 2010.

What I probably will buy is a bunch more Microsoft points, so I can buy The Pitt and Broken Steel (after I've finished Operation: Anchorage and then the main quest) DLC for Fallout 3; the next DLC for Fable 2; and perhaps Battlefield 1943 for some good ol' fashioned multiplayer like mamma used to make it.

I've also at the moment got a few bits of Oblivion DLC to play that I got when they were half price last month, as well as the Survival DLC for Left 4 Dead I haven't been able to play yet.
