Have you made your Mii avatar yet? Whether or not you're thrilled with the New Xbox Experience, it's hard to be disappointed with the Xbox 360 lineup this year, especially for first-person shooter fans. And if you're a hero of Albion. *turns around* Okay, okay, and if you're just a zombie. *turns around* There I said it. Just don't eat the staff, Duke. Duke? Duke!!!! *graarhrahrah*

Left 4 Dead
|
 |
 |
| Publisher: Electronic Arts |
| Genre: First-Person Shooter |
MSRP: $59.99
|
| We know we've complained about how Left 4 Dead doesn't really have much of a story? But it's got zombies. What kind of story do you need? Okay, fine, in an alternate universe where Sarah Palin becomes president, all the Democrats begin mutating into fast zombies that vomit green filth and chase the Republicans... yeah, see?, you don't need one. |

Fallout 3
|
 |
 |
| Publisher: Bethesda |
| Genre: RPG |
MSRP: $59.99
|
| I took a taste of reality, and I found it sweet and bitter and salty and everything I have ever wanted. Maybe it's because I feel nothing or that I feel so much that I have become numb, a modern Sisyphus who has left the rock behind and picked up a gun instead. I suppose you could call it love, but I would just call it fallout. |

Far Cry 2

| Publisher: Ubisoft |
| Genre: First-Person Shooter |
MSRP: $59.99
|
| You push aside the thick tropical leaves that block your view, their shadow covering your map like darkened blades, as your shotgun dangles on your back. But then you stop. You step back slowly, letting the leaves droop and rest. You steady your shotgun and aim at the skulking figure patrolling the lakeside. You envision the headshot and with a careful wink, you smile. |

Tales of Vesperia
|
 |
 |
| Publisher: Namco Bandai |
| Genre: RPG |
MSRP: $59.99
|
| They say that JRPGs are a dying breed. They are lying. Yes, the genre is getting smaller and smaller, but there's still nothing like running beneath the blue sky, facing nature in its beauty and mercilessness. This is a classically light-hearted JRPG with a humorous story that's sure to please anyone who wishes for a brisk adventure. |

Rock Band 2

 |
| Publisher: Electronic Arts |
| Genre: Rhythm |
MSRP: $189.99 (Bundle)
|
| Rock Band 2 may not be as visible as Guitar Hero as a brand, but it is definitely the rhythm title of choice. It has a larger database of downloadable songs, better peripherals and gameplay mechanics for the drums and vocals, and plenty of easy-to-use online features. |

| Note to self: Never go on a routine mission to fix a communications system in a deep space mining ship. Never step into a station that looks like Resident Evil X: Silent Hill Edition. Oh, and never become an engineer in deep space, no matter what your guidance counselor says. |
