Amped is about as realistic as you'll get from a game ... greatly satisfying when you pull it off
Not sure whether to get Amped or PGR3 (and NDzero). Decisions decisions
Are the games being released mid November, or actually hitting the shelves? And are the games being released before the console for any reason other than to ensure there are reviews to help buyers make purchasing decisions?
From what i've read, a lot of the games are being released a week before the console in America (games 14th, console 22nd), apparently it's been done before, not sure if it's for reviews or what, but either way we should see some reviews at some point next week. The games are being released on the same day as the console over here.
PGR3 is the top of my must play list as I loved all the other games in the series and have taken up residence at the developer's forums, Perfect Dark was another favourite from the N64 days and I caught a 6 minute video of the new one in action on the web somewhere which was enough to convince me to buy it. So amped would currently be my 3rd choice depending on what sort of reviews it gets (Haven't really paid much attention to Kameo although i've no doubt that will be good too)

Great then - reviews in time to buy! I have no doubt PGR or ND0 will be winners but secretly where no one can see them, I have my fingers crossed that amped will play as good as it looks, Id happily put that at the top of my list, if it plays like a winner. Ive not been this excited about a console launch in a decade!
Roll on the End of the month! 
Pre-ordered mine a few months ago now. Bit concerned over the whole stock for launch day situation though - I've booked the afternoon off on launch day so the plan was to head into town, pick up my new 360 and then head home for some serious new gadget worshipping 
Currently looking at PGR3 as a definite, and will probably choose another couple dependant upon the reviews - possibly Kameo and Perfect Dark. Quite like the look of CoD2 as well but dunno if that's out for launch.
Can't come soon enough though - I love new gadget launches!

I probably won't buy it until Halo 3 comes out.
It got plenty of use though

Bit of an update, gamers in America are already receiving their copies of Kameo through the post, with the shops saying that they're expecting Perfect Dark and Gotham in later in the week, might even get some reviews this week then... Gamespot has a story on it.
nice bit of news there Steve! How long does it take to review a modern day game then anway
