Winter 2007 games explosion!

It happens every holiday season: the game release floodgates are now fully open. Top-tier titles are being released way too fast for one gamer to buy and play them all! I’ll quickly run through the games I’m playing now, and my upcoming ranking of which games I’m playing first.
I’m enjoying these now:
- Halo 3 [360]
- Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance [PC]
- Resident Evil 4 [Wii] – must.. unlock… handcannon!
I want to play these ASAP:
- Call of Duty 4 [360]
- Crysis [PC]
- Super Mario Galaxy [Wii]
- Mass Effect [360]
- Zelda: Phantom Hourglass [DS]
- Bioshock [360]
All of those titles are among the best of their kind! I wish some were released last summer, I do not have time to play them all right now. It also seems like too many of those listed are shooter-type games, and the primary developer left making great non-shooter games is Nintendo.
The Xbox 360 in particular has been overrun by shooters. Of course there are non-shooter games I want to play like Beautiful Katamari and Ace Combat 6, but one of those is a 3-year old game idea and the other is a sequel in a long running series. I’d love to see some fresh, original, non-shooter development for the console to give it more variety!

Urg… how can you afford or much less have time for all that stuff. I’ve been waiting to get Resident Evil 4 for my PS2 until the end of the semester as a reward-type-thing. Looks like so much fun. Resident Evil 5, on the other hand, looks really racist…
