Here's what 2009 has in store for Xbox 360 owners.

Even though the Xbox 360 boasted of a good amount of exclusives in the years gone by, the rest of 2009 isn’t looking too hot for MS. As opposed to what Sony’s bringing to the table, Xbox 360 exclusives aren’t all that umm... exciting and the worst part for MS is that tons of exclusives like Mass Effect 2, Dead Rising and Lost Planet have now gone multiplatform. Either way, let’s take a look at what 2009 has in store for 360 owners: Halo 3: ODST Halo 3: ODST will be a stand-alone expansion for Halo 3 in which you step into the boots of an unknown Orbital Drop Ship Trooper (ODST) before the events of Halo 3. Unlike the iconic Master Chief, you’re a run-of-the-mill grunt so don’t expect to just run into the heat of the battle and regenerate health; you’ll have to survey the situation, move carefully and even use stealth to your advantage as and when possible. Shadow Complex Announced at E3 2009 by the makers of the Gears of War series in conjunction with Chair Entertainment, Shadow Complex is an all out, balls-to-the-wall side scrolling shooter for Xbox Live Arcade. I normally don’t mention XBLA games in such lists but this one grabbed me by my throat with its fast paced action, gorgeous visuals and a 3D open-world game design. GTA: The Ballad of Gay Tony Since the first episode of downloadable content for GTA IV impressed the crap out of us we sure have high hopes for the second one in which you’ll step into the boots of “Luis Lopez, part-time hoodlum and full-time assistant to legendary nightclub impresario Tony Prince (aka Gay Tony)”. Betrayal, loyalty, guns, glamor and copious amounts of Liberty City night life is what’s been promised to us so far. Forza Motorsport 3 A wet dream for gearheads, Forza Motorsport 3 is all about realistic racing in pretty cars. Besides that expect visuals running at 60 frames per second, over 400 vehicles to choose from, user-generated content and the ability to upload your very own fully customized high-definition videos on Xbox Live. |
