When they took out all the good exclusive content on the Fable 2 Limited Editions, I felt kind of cheated. So I cancelled my order and got a regular copy.

Two things spring to mind.

1. Eternal Sonata
I was young at heart once. Foolishly, I thought that my 360's game library was lacking in the Japanese Role Playing Game (Acronyms are for suckers) department. I should have bought Blue Dragon...
If anyone has seen the Unskipable video for this game, that wasn't the entirety of the intro movie, there is even more after that. The dialogue is nauseating and has a tendency to drag on and on, then repeat itself just in case you missed out on the naive preachy bullshit the first time around.
I had the clever idea of switching the dialogue to Japanese so I couldn't understand most of it (having forgotten pretty much everything from the four years of Japanese classes I took in school). But dialogue still took so very long, so I occupied myself by leaving for the kitchen and making myself a sandwich and would repeat this process if the dialogue was not finished by the time I had eaten it. I've lost track of exactly how many kilograms (I'm using the metric system, deal with it) I gained, but it was quite a few months after I stopped playing the game before my body size was back to an acceptable level.
The game is really short too, it took me about seven days of occasionally forcing myself to play for a few hours in order to reach the end, which was about fifteen minutes of the characters taking turns pulling environmentalist propaganda out of their asses.
I used to like Japanese Role Playing Games, I had a lot of fun with them in my pre-360 days, but now... I... I just don't think I'm ready to run that risk again... My 360 shall remain Japanese Role Playing Game-less.

2.Empire: Total War

The jury (if you will) is still out on this one, but if a patch fixing all the problems I've had doesn't arrive soon, I'm going to have to kill someone. When I bought Total War, I was kind of expecting to be able to play it, rather than it fucking up halfway through the loading screen and cutting out eight times out of ten ever since I used steam *shakes fist at steam* to get the extra units that were supposed to come with the version I bought.
I'll say this now, I don't like the idea of having to use steam for my games. I like the Internet, really I do, it's brought me some great things, and was a fantastic help during my awkward, pimply and sex crazed teenage years. But I'd much prefer to have a more, manual way of playing and maintaining my games than having some powerful Internet conglomerate keeping hold of it for me. Despite the fact that I am a 360 gamer (Oh ho!), I would prefer to have a more reliable and stable way of playing my own games.
That said, if the patch comes through fast enough, maybe I wont kill anyone. Maybe.
Funny, I was going to say "Empire" too, if only because of the stupid greyed-out "save" button. I still don't have a clue what the hell I'm doing wrong there, and frankly if THAT'S the hardest part of the game then I can't be bothered with the rest of it...
