One of my hobbies is web design and in doing that I've came up with a website that may help people.

http://www.xbox360.ukreleasedates.com/

It's basically a site that shows the UK release dates for Xbox 360 games and shows a little more detail about each game to save going to the big sites that are covered in loads of adverts/flash banners, slow loading, etc.

There is also a list of recently released games in case you haven't had the time to keep up to date and may have missed a game. This then shows review scores from a number of sites, etc.

Sometimes the big games get so much publicity that smaller titles get drowned out so you should be able to quickly see if any games coming up take your fancy.

I've tried to be as accurate as possible for release dates and if there is no broad consensus or confirmed dates I won't guess because for me it's annoying when shops and sites do that.

The RSS feed will also let you know when games are released.

Hopefully this will help some people. If you have any comments/suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.
 
Cracking :)

Suggestions though - get rid of the 'dead anchors' - if you click on a game that has no info, it shoots you back up to the top of the site...

Also, might be better to have the game info as a small pop-up window rather than down the bottom? Saves lots of scrolling...(although will require allowing pop-ups)

Most excellent! I've book marked this site as well, keep up the hard work!

Will come in really handy when planning the months spending. I did a similar thing (offline) for this years tv shows on dvd as well as there was so many shows I wanted to buy!
 
Thanks for the positive replies guys.

Good point about the dead anchors.

If I knew some Ajax or similar to code interactive pop-ups I might do it but multiple pop-up windows may get annoying, especially when you want to look at quite a few games. I'll look into it.

That's the plan. I've done a music version (link in footer) and if it proves successful and doesn't take ridiculous amounts of time I'll add those as well.
 
Good site, forgot about HL2 Orange Box though? Or have I missed it? That, Bioshock and Chronicles of Riddick are my three most wanted :D
