Hey guys,

I was just wondering If there were any good games coming out by x-mas. If so, what are they? I was really counting on Blood Wake.. but that one's not coming out till the 29th =(. I haven't heard anything about any other great games coming out by x-mas.. just thought I'd check.

Pimpn...I simply listed the games that are coming out. Whether they are all good or not depends on your personal taste. Personally, for the new ones coming out between today, 12/7 and 12/25 (Christmas), I would go with Max Payne and UFC Tapout :D

I was reffering to Dragon's Lair and Dragon's Lair 2.. I was simply asking If anyone knew If they were any good. I haven't seen them anywhere.. or I would rent them myself and see If I liked them.

I see...I haven't seen them on the XBox, personally. But, call around to the local rental places to see if they have one or both of them in. Personally, I wouldn't get them, but, I suppose I shouldn't judge them before trying them. Renting is the safest way to go :)

Dragon's Lair and Dragon's Lair 2 are prettyt cool games to get. I personaly bought Space Ace one year ago. These games you can play them on your DVD player. Those games come from the 80's if you remember them. They are available in the DVD section at Future Shop and they are available at EB in the game section. Look for them. I payed mine 30$ canadian. I don't know if you need the DVD playback kit for your XBOX if you wanna play them. You might be able to play them with the normal controller. Ask the clerk who works in that section of the store to tell you. :D

yeah, thanks.. my local eb doesn't carry them (as of yet). I do, however, have the DVD Playback Kit for the xbox.. so no worries there.

I remember playing this game a long time ago and I really liked It.. I might just buy this one before renting, but who knows.

Does anyone remember that game for PlayStation that was like and interactive movie? I know there were a couple.. but the one I'm talking about was called something like "13 Dead End Drive". The cover was yellow and It had this trippy hunchback dude with like 12 weapons on either side of him. That game was sweeeettt! I really like those type of games.. that's why I'm pretty sure I'll like Dragon's Lair and Dragons Lair 2 for the xbox.
