To be completely honest, nothing has really grabbed my eye. Which isn't a big deal since I already have more than enough gaming on my plate at the moment :) I'll almost certainly pick up a copy of X-Men Legens 2 and GTA: San Andreas eventually. I've been hearing from a lot of people that Darkwatch is a lot of fun and worth a buy - plus the whole premise of being a vampire cowboy is just too cool. But other than that...
It seems as though the next couple months are the lull before the storm for Xbox games due to the impending release of the Xbox 360. I haven't really seen enough of the 360 launch titles to really get that excited about them. Oblivion looks very, very cool obviously. I've always wanted to play Morrowind, but with my latest ROM craze and a renewed effort to knock off a couple Xbox games I never finished, I have more than enough to keep me busy already. Heh, I hope I can get arround to Morrowind eventually (and Deux Ex / FF7). I'll be getting Oblivion for my PC and not Xbox 360 though, so I can take advantage of the mod community easier.
There's been a lot of buzz about Gears of War and Ninety-Nine Nights looks cool. But once again, nothing that I really feel compelled to run out and buy the instant it hits shelves.
I'm a big BioWare fan, so I'm always looking forward to their next game. Dragon Age is no exception, especially if it's a lot like NWN. I think I've gotten more playtime out of NWN than any other game I have ever owned because of the great community effort to release lots of quality content.
Halo 3 is out there too - looming somewhere :)
Edit: Almost forgot NWN2, thanks Armin. Don't know how that slipped my mind. I really loved the folks at Black Isle. Which reminds me, I lost my copy of Fallout 2 a while ago :angry: I might have t buy a new copy off Ebay.

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
