Spoiled for choice?

[Hey Joe]

Have you, ever in your gaming life, been so overawed by the gaming choices on offer. I know I will be getting Far Cry 2, Fable 2, Dead space and Fallout 3 (I put down the pre-orders today), and I'm genuinely spoiled for choice. What do I play first?

So in this time of great gaming abundance, I ask you to look back to other times of plenty, and regale us with tales of when you just didn't know what to play first.

Well, now if ever. I mean, there are alot of great games coming out and I would love to play (most) any of them.

But, I think I want Far Cry 2 and Left 4 dead most of all, other then that it's just mods.
And when it comes to mods, I really am spoiled for choice.

I want Fallout 3, Left 4 Dead and Fable 2, and Far Cry 2, problem is...I don't have the cash to get them all.

Come to think of it, no. I can't ever recall actually wanting more games than I do now. Far Cry 2, Fallout 3, LBP, Dead Space, Left 4 Dead, Fable 2, Gears 2... And I thought that I had a picky taste in games...

 

[Finbark]

The only time I've ever had a tough decision is when Jak X, Sly 3, and Ratchet: Dead Locked came out. Sly 3 was the only one that was really fun though...

And that's the real problem. With all these games coming out, it's not "What should I play first?" it's, "What game would give me the most bang for my buck?"

Hopefully Fallout 3 as I reserved a copy, but I think the two games I'll get will be Fallout 3 and Far Cry 2, which by the way, first review for it is up here [http://www.gamesradar.com/xbox360/far-cry-2/review/far-cry-2/a-20081015152612646045/g-20070221105824716083].
I'll probably get Left 4 Dead for Christmas though...

That's the thing: they all give you a lot of bang for your buck.

Fable 2, Dead Space, Far Cry 2, Fallout 3, velvet assassin, Gears of War 2, DoD: World at War, Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena and Need for Speed Undercover. Not to mention SR: 2 which I already have.

I've made lists. I still can't decide. There's just sooo much to choose from, and I have to decide which I want the most as I'm broke

 

[OverlordSteve]

Mass effect or Assassin's Creed.

Funny thing is, I played Assassin's Creed first, loved it to death and hated Mass Effect, while my Friend played Mass Effect first and loved it, then rented Assassin's Creed and almost burned it.

You could do what I do and just buy one or two at once, and then wait for the others to get cheaper. I know Fable 2 and Fallout 3 should occupy you for a long time, why not just get those two? If FarCry 2 is as long as the first, that should tide you over on FPS, along with Fable suiting your other needs.

Unfortunately there's too many good choices this year! Oh noes! Why can't the industry go back to making crappy games?

 

[implodingMan]

Probably going to buy Gears 2, and ask for Fable 2 for Christmas.

 

[Altorin]

right now, I don't have much money.

not enough for either Fallout or Fable

and I want both.

anyone ... looking for a good time...?

 

[Jumplion]

Usually, when there's an abundance of games I want to play, there's ONE game that stands out above all the rest that I want to play the most.

That was LittleBigPlanet (you're not going to hear the end of this until it's released :'( ) but since it was delayed, now I'm going to look at Dead Space for the week to keep me occupied.

 

[pha kin su pah]

pokemon red or blue? silver or gold? ruby or sapphire?

the choices....

 

[somerandomguy76]

*sob* Stop talking about it. Please!!

My 360 just red-ringed last night so no awesome games for me until it gets back

Fallout 3, Fable 2, Resistance 2, Gears of War 2.

Games that are interesting but ultimately had to be slashed.

Farcry2, My dreams, My hopes, SOCOM Confrontation, Silent Hill 5, My penis, Little Big Planet.

One of those things is not like the other!

I'd say about 3 of those, actually.

Wait.

[Altorin]

Only one was really worth noting.
