This year is definitely underwhelming compared to last year.
I'm definitely pulling the trigger on Gears of War 2, Fallout 3 and Left 4 Dead (PC). I'm waiting to see on The Force Unleashed, Fable 2 and Banjo-Kazooie.
Might check out Little Big Planet to see if it lives up to the hype.
-
Fable 2 is a sure thing, along with Resistance 2, MotorStorm 2 and Gears 2. The only original game I'll be playing looks to be that Mirror's Edge game. Pretty good split between systems, and I guess if Far Cry 2 is good, the PC might get something too.
-
Oh, I forgot to add DEAD SPACE to that list. It's going to be my annual Halloween gaming fix.
-
Good point. Dead Space looks hot.
Is Alpha Protocol coming out this year, or is that a 2009 game?
-
Dead Space is top of my list. I just started watching the animated comics (fuck, there's a lot of swearing). Otherwise, I can't wait for:
Fable 2
Fallout 3
Farcry 2
Tom Raider: Underworld
Prince of Persia
Mirror's Edge
Gears 2
For me, this year has even more stuff than last year. :(
-
Here's the games I'm most looking forward to:
-Mirror's Edge
-Fallout 3
-Dead Space
-Left 4 Dead
-Spore
-Saints Row 2
-S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky
All of which are on PC, oddly enough.
-
Fallout 3, Left 4 Dead, Spore, Neverwinter Nights 2: Storm of Zehir, and Red Alert 3, and Rock Band 2.
-
left 4 dead (pc & maybe 360 ver as well)
gears of war 2 for sure :bow
persona 4
little big planet
mirrors edge
I liked fable so maybe fable 2
im forgetting a bunch
-
Mirror's Edge
Little Big Planet
Prince of Persia
Fallout 3
Gears 2
Dead Space
will probably pass on at least 3 of those depending on reviews. And will probably get to play no more than a few hours of any of them :(
-
All of them
Except anything made by Tim Schafer or Jonathan Blow
And Sony
-
Gears 2, Motorstorm 2, L4D, Saints Row 2, and Fallout 3 are must plays.
Notch below are Mirror's Edge, Far Cry 2, PoP.
Below that is a bunch of avg games I'll play like Resistance 2, Treyarch Duo, and Tomb Raider.
On fence with Dead Space (don't like scary), LBP (no interest in creating levels, so is it fun then?), and all the other racing games.
-
RB2
BiA
LBP
GH4
F3
COD
L4D

Prince of Persia is coming out this year? If so that's really bad timimg.
For me I'm definitely getting:
Fallout 3
Little Big Planet
Gears of War 2
Left4Dead
Dead Space and Mirror's Edge if they turns out good
Maybe Resistance 2 and PoP at some point
-
In order:
1) Fable 2

Rock Band 2 and LBP are the only sure buys.
I'm looking forward to Gameflying a lot of shit, though.
-
thunderforce 6, lbp, and the new prince of persia, mainly. i'll definitely play resistance 2 and gears 2, though neither game seems very interesting to me at the moment. also interested in mirror's edge, fallout 3, motorstorm 2...probably all sorts of shit i'm not thinking of
-
I preordered Banjo. I don't normally do that kind of shit but since they're offering a free code for Banjo on XBLA I thought I'd bite.
Other than that, the guaranteed buys from me are -
Fallout 3
Spore
Fable 2
LBP
Rentals -
Mirror's Edge
Prince of Persia.....how could a game that looks that good seem so boring? Drake of Persia total.

Q4 starts in October right?
Ive recently decided that after I get a pc Ill pick up a 360 for cheaps at some point. The only games I'm interested in are the Gears and Pinanta sequels, and xbla. Im really looking forward to City Folk alot. The animal crossing series is a great premise, and the synthesis of the ds and gcn feature sets with wiiconnect 24 makes me think Ill be able to maintain interest for even longer.
If mm9 is a small download I'll grab that as well.
-
i don't even know
L4D
gears 2...maybe?
rb2
uhhhh

edit: And whats weird is I have no desire to play my ds anymore. Im sure pocket paradise and Rhythm Heaven will be great games, but Im just not enthusiastic for portable gaming anymore.
edit: I hit quote instead of modify. I blame the ADD.

Not really.
-
Last year was a lot better, unless all you own is a PS3.
PC and Xbox 360 owned last year.
-
Speaking of last year, I'm looking forward to Halo 3.
-

Not really.
Really. Mass Effect, BioShock, Assassin's Creed, Crysis, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Rock Band, Super Mario Galaxy, The Witcher, Call of Duty 4, Halo 3, Uncharted, The Orange Box, etc.
-
Speaking of last year, I'm looking forward to Halo 3.
I'm sure you will greatly enjoy those 4 hours.
-
It depends on your gaming tastes as to whether this year is better. Halo 3, Mass Effect, COD4, and Orange Box didn't interest me last year which knocked a significant wad of games out (love Half Life 2 but once is enough).
This year has about twice as many games as last year for me. Both are kick-ass years really.
-
this year rocks last year. i generally don't shit bricks for big budget overdeveloped tosh.
-
Purchase Confirmed on:
Little Big Planet
Fallout 3
Silent Hill: Homecoming
Mega Man 9
Spore (though most likely not at first)
Will watch to see how these games are doing:
Fable 2 (don't expect much)
Gears of War 2 (lol, will borrow from a friend a week later and beat in a day)
Mirror's Edge
Force Unleashed
Banjo-Kazooie 3 (collectathon fears rising)

if you loved HL2, why didn't episode 2 interest you...?
for all the non-fegs, orange box was ep2, TF2, portal -- HL2 was just an extra gift we threw at a cigarillo.
-
I still really want HL2 ep 3, but I wasn't a fan of that whole shit at the end of Episode 2. I also hate the various times in Episode 2 where they pump up the nerd electric music and have some tedious battle to fight.
-
I really disliked Ep2. Granted that I never finished it, but I couldn't take any more. And I was absolutely psycho bananas over HL2; Raising the Bar is the coffee table book of forever, I bought the Combine Wall litho, and I made massively long nerd-posts regarding the greatness of the game world, the vision, etc. But I guess when something that remarkable comes along, you come to expect future efforts to keep pushing things. And Ep2, and certainly Ep1, felt like retreads of previous HL games mingled with various suck-ass portions of other shooters. I'll have to give it another shot one of these days, but what I played was anything but exciting.
-
It was a predictable shootout that required using the poor HL2 vehicle controls. It followed the same damn patten you always expect from it; same old 'tedious task, tedious task, tedious task, OH SNAP TEDIOUS TASK IS NOW CRAZY! WAAAAAH!!!'. I was tired off that whole trick back when they made you do it with the turrets and antlions earlier on. Episode 2 still probably has some of my favorite shootout sequences in the section with various houses and having to take down the shield that blocked your car. It was so much fun running between houses and having to take on the various enemies.
-
One thing that really bugged me was that I still had to use the gravity gun for everything. Want to open this hatch? Use the gravity gun! Need to lift this tiny piece of wood? Use the grav gun!
-
I really disliked Ep2.

-
Since I'm not into TF2 I didn't really want to pay for two expansions and Portal (which I assumed would be made into a more full release eventually).
This was only affirmed when I playing the demo on the 360 and got a real feeling of "oh, this again". HL2 was fantastic, and in spite of the ongoing nature of the story I found HL2 a satisfyingly complete experience. I just don't feel like visiting the same world again (just now).

stalker: clear sky
warhammer online
no idea what else is coming out that i would be interested in
maybe fallout 3
edit: i never beat ep2. I couldn't find a strategy that worked for me to take on the walkers.
