This maybe a bit off topic but with the looming threat of skyrim, call of duty 3 and battlefield 3 coming to your game collection. What will you be getting or will you just stick with Forza 4?
Between Skyrim and Forza 4, I'm going to be buying my wife a LOT of flowers these next few months...
Is Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Coming out soon??

Saints Row: The Third is one of my most anticipated titles of 2011. I have grown to love this series a lot more than GTA. If you like sandbox games and havent tried Saints Row 2, you should check it out. A full drop in drop out co-op campaign sandbox game with full customization and freedom. Its the perfect combination of Vice City and San Andreas. Just pure, insane, outragous, FUN.
I am also looking forward to Battlefield 3 and would like to check out Skyrim.
I personally think the Saints Row series destroys GTA. And thats coming from a HUGE GTA fan. But to each his own. Hopefully you at least tried SR2 and the full co-op campaign. If you played solo then you didnt experience how the game was meant to be played.
SR2 is very fun as a co-op. Hopefully you were able to play it with some friends. I have never laughed so much playing a game in my life as I did with SR2. I still have it too.
I still need to buy Crysis for the 360. Its in the Games on demand section. Probably use my christmas MS points for that. Plenty of other games to keep me busy for now. I wanted it for the PC years ago but my gaming PC couldnt run it in the highest settings. But it looks very good on the 360.
I also started a GTA fan back with the original top down view game. Loved the series. I had a good time with SA but it dit feel a bit stale after Vice City. I even took 2 weeks off paid for VIce City and loved that game!! Such an incredible experience. GTA4 was one of the largest disappointments in my gaming history. Couldnt buy houses, couldnt buy cars,couldnt fly planes, no character customization besides the Nikko character, no vehicle upgrades, no parachute (until TBOGT) no monster trucks.... Just a massive massive disappointment and huge step backward. Took everything away from the series that was fun to try and make it more serious. Huge mistake.I've never played SR2 but have heard a lot of good reviews about it. I've always been a GTA guy, right back from the first top down view one of PS1 but GTA4 was a little too serious and it took a lot of the fun away that Vice City had. I also personally thought that SA was starting to get a little stale although I know it was one of the more popular titles in the GTA series. I might give SR3 ago however as it looks good.
Also get Crysis. I recently picked it up from a bargain bin in my local EB (for pc) and it's brilliant. I'm not too far into the game yet, but I really dig the nano suit mechanics. Lots of fun.
Forza is only here to hold me over to Skyrim, once that comes out I doubt I'll boot up a console for a very long time or do anything else for that matter.
I am still undecided about Skyrim. I didnt like Oblivion but LOVED Fallout 3 especially the VATS system. Skyrim does look amazing especially with the Dragons (im obsessed with dragons) and the ability to use both your hands but I will rent it first to be safe.
