Top 10 Aniticpated Games & GTA IV delay...

Take Two recently announced that Grand Theft Auto IV has now been delayed, if they thought they had issues before with "kids" who should not even be playing the game going out and doing unspeakable crimes... just wait for the news in a week or two. "Thousands of grown men attempt to commit suicide” the reason? They say “Grand Theft Auto IV was delayed just 2 months before it was scheduled to release."

It's an exciting year for gamers, with some really promising new titles on the horizon for 2007 and beyond on both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 gaming platforms. New IP's of interest include Assassin's Creed, Bioshock, and Haze and of course perhaps the most intriguing of all has to be, LittleBigPlanet.
There are some familiar faces returning this year, with Bungie's epic trilogy sadly concluding in what looks like will be the final Halo game, at least with an FPS perspective or with Master Chief as the main character. We can still live in hope that Halo, the First Person Shooter makes a return once again down the road.

The following are the Top 10 titles I am most interested, intrigued by or just simply must-have (from now into 2008):

01. Halo 3 (Legendary Edition)
02. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
03. LittleBigPlanet
04. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
05. Grand Theft Auto IV (moved down three places due to annoying delay)
06. Assassin's Creed
07. Haze
08. Bioshock
09. WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2008
10. Unreal Tournament III

There are others of interest, but those above are the ones that interest me the most. Honourable mentions include Guitar Hero III, Rock Band, The Orange Box, PGR4 and Resident Evil 5, this last game would have made it in the list if it was not so far off in the future, 2009 seems so bloody far away... speaking of Resident Evil 5 I spent some lovely Photoshop time with an in-game screenshot from Resident Evil 5, see if you can spot the difference between the two following images.

RE5 - Original
RE5 - PS Edit

I may do future ones like this actually perhaps sticking good old' Wolly in one of my future ones, maybe ;)
