When the October 4th 2005 X 05 events were going on in Amsterdam all in the gaming industry realized that the Microsoft will announce for the release of its Xbox 360 games in North America and Europe. But to everyones surprise Microsoft didnt did so and that led to the confusion in the minds of many people.

However, the corporate vice president of xbox marketing and publishing, Peter Moore told the masses that there are two hundred xbox 360 games in development phase that are one of the best games ever designed. He also stated that they would organize the best launch lineup of xbox 360 that has not been done ever in this industry. Peter Moore refused to declare the list of all the games that would be available for sale in November 22 during the launch of the xbox 360. This launch is to be held in the United States.

As if this was not enough, one more press release by Microsoft titled Xbox 360 launch line-up announced has added to more confusion. Three first party games are listed in the press release under the heading of an impressive Christmas holiday portfolio. The games that are listed are Kameio Elements of Power, Perfect Dark Zero and Project Gotham racing 3. The next catalogue of games under heading of the other great games announced or shown at X05 consists of games like Too human, Crackdown, fifa 06, Saints row and many more. In the third category the games were included under the heading of the franchise titles that will make their debut on xbox 360 that consists of games like Tom Clancys splinter Cell 4, superman Returns: The Videogame, call of duty 2 and many more such games.

The main confusion is that most of these games have 2006 release dates. Moreover some of the games that are announced would be impossible to be added into the xbox 360 launch lineup that is opposite to the title indicated in press release.

To add to the confusion, when director of platform marketing for the xbox 360, David Reid was asked about the available games during the launch then he stated that only fifteen to twenty xbox 360 titles will be launched in November and the next halfdozen would be available next year. According to David Reid, only eight games would be available in November, namely, Need for Speed Most Wanted, FIFA 06: Road to FIFA world Cup, Project Gotham Racing 3, Perfect Dark Zero, Kameo, Madden NFL 06, NBA live 06 and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06. Remaining seven games that would be available in November will be announced by him in the next few weeks. He stated that those games are in the final stages of certification referring to the quality assurance process all games have to go through before they are available in the market. He also confirmed that if any game is unable to pass the certification then that game may not be available for sale in November xbox 360 launch.

The main problem is that the decision to rush games is for the reason that the company wants to take the advantage of the holiday sales season. The other reason is that the gamer in todays world can analyze whether the game was rushed that may result in the destruction of the reputation of the game. Now there are only tow conditions, either the xbox 360 games would be a great success or a big failure. All this is due to the excessive pre release publicity of Xbox 360.

Although the three games that Microsoft assures would be available on the release dates but when it comes to the remaining twelve titles all confusion prevails. It is thought that even if the xbox 360 is spared the proposed ps3 would be under the same trap of questions.

The best way to know about the release of Xbox 360 is to wait and watch. Here we are in a state of confusion whereas on the other hand the Microsoft is fueling the market for the sale of its xbox 360 games.
