    I'm going to make a bold statement and say Left 4 Dead will definitely be the best game you mentioned.

    I'm also going to say Left 4 Dead if you feel like wanting an FPS or Fable 2 if you want an RPG.

    Dead Space has no precedence because it's a new franchise, but it does look too have potential.

    Gears of War 2. Where is the hype for this game? The first Gears was a huge success, yet only a hand full of people on here seem to be excited for the sequel.

    That is true, but I would of expected Gears 2 to be firmly the most anticipated game coming out this fall, but it seems Fallout 3 has attracted just as much hype.

    The most anticipated game? It is, but you can't blame people for also wanting something fresh like Fallout, that doesn't mean people dont want Gears. Does everyone have to be sucking Gears 2's balls in order to show their gratitude. :P

    Everyone doesnt have to, But YOU dont have to go into every thread and repeat your garbage over and over just because Gears2 isnt on your ps3.

    If you want a couple of alternative choices I would say Bionic Commando, Mercs 2 and maybe Banjo-Kazooie.

    What? What garbage, I'll most likely be playing Gears 2 the day it comes out, or at leas the same week. Like I said before, but you never replied, I could give you my friends tag and we could have a duel. How about that? Would that make you believe me? Lol...

    Sentry, you do tend to lean towards the PS3 and i thinks thats what that guy is refrencing. But to your point, I love Gears of War, in fact its my 2nd favorite series ever, but people do tend to be a little to nice and forgiving towards it, just like MGS4.

    Yeah, I agree. People don't have to show there love for the game for them to be huge fans. It is kind of assumed that every 360 owner will get Gears 2, and is anticipating it, so I don't really think everyone has to show their hype for the game as much since its an assumed thing. Still, go to the Gears board, you will see plenty of it, since that's where it belongs.

    and maybe sad little fanboys like you should stay on the ps3 board instead of Trolling on the 360 board, since thats where you belong.
