I'm definitely picking up Soulcalibur, but I'm holding off until I can also afford a fighting stick. Maybe then I'll suck less at SFII on XBLA.

Soul Calibur for sure, even if The Apprentice is going to own everyone...

I kind of want Spectral Force 3, but I think I'll hold off until it goes down in price

So, three lightsaber-wielding people? Why? I mean, yea lightsabers are sweet as titties, but you would think two is enough.

Soul Calibur 360

My fingers are still crossed for everyone in the game getting a lightsaber mod for their weapon.

And/or a light saber option for customer characters . . .

SC for the 360 when it's released over here around 4 august.

That wireless fighting stick is looking like a requirement with all the fighting games coming out, too bad that thing will make it less fun when the local 2nd player has to use the 360 dpad though :/

Also Legend: Hand of God hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

I actually like the idea of MLB 2008's story mode. It sounds like it adds a bit of depth to the game. O_o

Soul Calibur/SNK Collection and Spectral Force look interesting to me at the mo.

Not one mention of Geometry Wars 2? I thought the first game was easily the best value on the XBLA to this point. Its unfortunate the second game will not also be 400 points. However its worth the 800.

I'm only buying Soul Calibur if I can make Tir McDohl with the character creator. It's been a secret dream of mine to see Tir McDohl in a fighting game using Kilik's moveset, because that would be fucking amazing.

Nothing, really. Geometry Wars 2 is a game I'm getting for sure, but that's about it.

Geometry wars 2 at least, I don't really have a need for Spectral Force, but being an Atlus title on the 360 I get the feeling it will be hard to find (more than normal for an Atlus game) in a couple of months.
