With the onslaught of AAA games coming this holiday on the 360, I'm sure all but the most rich-ass gamers will have to pick and choose their games wisely, if they'll want to still pay the rent, or at least afford a survival blanket for the cold winter months.
So, which titles are you planning on dropping the kid's college savings on?
EDIT: SHIT! Damnitt, I fucked up the poll. Forgot to check "allow multiple choices".... yeah, well now this thread sucks. *sigh*

I know, read the OP.
It was an accident, and in the OP I point out how stupid it is.
If a mod could change it, I'd love that, but for now vBulletin doens't let you edit polls.
