I've never been terribly impressed with the Twisted Metal series. Don't get me wrong, a few of them have been really enjoyable (the earlier ones, for me,) but the "car shooter" genre kind of faded into obscurity quickly thereafter.

That list looks fairly credible, though a source would be cool (I'm assuming you slapped it together from various published sources recently, if this is the case - don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.)

The big ones I'd look forward to would be the MGS + Oxide information release and Mistwalker announcement. For those who weren't aware, Mistwalker is largely made up of experienced Japanese developers (quite a few of whom are from Square prior to the merge) and includes a few names like Hironobu Sakaguchi, the founder, who was also responsible for the creation of the Final Fantasy series.

Blue Dragon wasn't terribly impressive, but they did turn things around noticeably with Lost Odyssey, so it will be interesting to see what they plan on doing next.

I'm not a fan of Twisted Metal myself to be honest.

I definately used mutliple sources for this information. Not all are published sources either. Basically its a list of self proclaimed insider information that a few others have spoke out about and said that it is factual.Some information has already been denied by both MS and Sony but that doesn't mean much of anything in this industry.

I too was a fan of Lost Odyssey.

The only things that interest me are the MGS / Kojima stuff. And if MGS is an xbox exclusive it won't sell in Japan - MS hasn't even sold a million consoles there. So I find that pretty hard to believe.

I'm also not a fan of Kojima stuff...never was. can't stand MGS series hehe.

MS has sold a million but barely. They are 1.05 million LTD in Japan. The game would move some consoles if it was 360 exclusive...but not alot.
