Glen checks out a dozen of the most exciting Xbox 360 titles on the horizon, from first-person shooters to MMOs...
Having recently covered the best upcoming PS3 exclusives, I thought I’d turn my attention to those on the way for the Xbox 360. Although I acknowledge that there have been a few notable exceptions (including the flawed but excellent Alan Wake), there has been a lack of high quality exclusives on the console for some time. But with the launch of Kinect last year, as well as the return of some of the 360’s most popular franchises, the future release schedules look very strong indeed.
Here’s a list of the upcoming 360 exclusives I’m most excited about...
XCOM
(Console exclusive, also available on PC)
This reboot of the revered strategy franchise sounds like a winner to me. Looking to add layers of tactics, suspense and intrigue to the FPS genre, XCOM finds players taking control of an FBI agent on the hunt of a faceless enemy in an alternate 1950s.
From the trailer, it looks like a lot of running around and shooting is involved, but it promises to deliver an in-depth and compelling narrative alongside excellent action.
In planning but not 100% confirmed: Project Gotham 5, Perfect Dark sequel, Mech Warrior (also on PC) and the rumoured Halo 4 / Halo Combat Evolved reboot.
I apologise for the omission of Get Fit With Mel B, but if there are any other titles that you feel should have been included please comment below.
