ok thats quite a few games and this took me nearly an hour so I'll stop there, if you want add any games feel free to make it more complete, 

well there is some truth to the notion that Microsoft announces their exclusives the year they are released, but that only really applys to Rare and Turn 10 titles, most others are known about roughly a year and a half before release, so with Turn 10 doing Forza 4 for this year, I think the only other chance you have with exclusives this year are from Rare, and those are likely to be Kinect titles anyway.
