With the new update on the 360 this week there are new premium themes and avatars. And by the look of things with the theme packs you can have both a theme and avatar clothes in a down loadable pack.

So I got to thinking, there was the SA Gamerpic pack and that looks like it went over well, so why not take it a step further?

I may not as of the moment totally know what is and is not in the game that was promised us. But for the love of everything that is sacred the contents of the Limited Edition have been whittled away. And now it seems its been whittled away to almost nothing.

Originally we were promised

premium box
five printed fate cards
Hobbe figure
Fable II game disc
Bonus DVD with new ‘Making-of’ Feature
Bonus in-game content (requires Xbox LIVE®)
‘The Hall of the Dead’ Dungeon
‘The Wreckager’ Legendary Cutlass Weapon
Spartan armor and energy sword

Kirby, yes that little pink marshmallow that Tommy Tallarico hates with a passion. And yes, Kirby does "suck", but thats the point of Kirby. Are the games super difficult, no? But I just can't stop playing them.

And to me this seems very logically fair on Capcom's part. And before I go any further, this isn't fanboyish in the least.

Okay, now you probably wonder why I say this is fair. Okay, the PS3 and the 360 both already have gotten Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3. Soon they both are also getting 1942: Joint Strike and Bionic Commando Rearmed and eventually Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix. Yet, the Wii is getting none of those.

What happened to variety in games? It seems that now most games are either FPS, sports, or bad movie games. Okay, so bad movie games have been around forever so that really doesn't count.

Now don't get me wrong, every now and then I like a good FPS or sports game. But it seems in the last few years that has become few and far between. For every CoD 4/Halo 3/Orange Box there are many bad ones. And yes, I know every genre has this. But the fact of the matter is that about 85% of the games there were of these two genres.
