Overall, it's a decent list. It's great in the aspect that huge names like Halo and Mass Effect will generate hundreds of millions in software sales, but pretty poor in the respect that (aside from Star Ocean) every single game is a sequel/spin-off to an established 360 franchise or a new IP. Needless to say, Microsoft is going to have some trouble selling systems based on their exclusive games next year. Thankfully, all the profits from software sales that those sequels/spin-offs are going to generate will help fund a price-drop late next year that will hopefully keep the 360 competative with the PS3. Unfortunately, with it already starting at $199.99, Microsoft really doesn't have much room left to drop the price enough to really stimulate sales.
