As any true Xbox 360 gamer knows, the system has its fair share of stellar war games to play. There's the Game of the Year contender, Call of Duty 4, there's Halo 3, Battlefield 2: Modern Combat, and the upcoming Battlefield: Bad Company.

Shell and BP made a collective 33.7 billion dollars in profit last year, but while the oil companies are laughing right now (and raping, and pillaging, etc), the future according to Frontlines: Fuel of War is not one they will enjoy. By then, the scarcity of oil reserves will result in an East-West divide that can only be solved by hard men with big guns. Cue yet another near-future first-person shooter on the Xbox 360.
