I honestly preferred Bioshock 2 to the original, considering the original was trying far too hard to be System Shock 2, and BS2 moved a bit away from that.SoranMBane said:
This is Mark Hamill's final performance as the Joker, it'd be an irritating waste if they didn't have him put in a big show.GiantRaven said:
Plus, despite Batman's other villains, none of them are as good as the Joker. Arkham Asylum wouldn't have been as good if it was Two-Face or Hugo Strange pulling off the Arkham take-over. The Joker just lends a certain quality, and a certain threat to any situation he's in.
Which is why I hope he, Two-Face and Hugo all put in suitably ambitious performances in Arkham City. Those three all trying to one-up one another will be awesome to behold.
We'll no, Infinite is being made by the minds behind the original (Irrational Games) so I'd like to think that they will blow us away. Again.totally heterosexual said:

You obviously haven't played a Battlefield game before, have you?
Someone opened their mouth before watching the E3 gameplay. Naughty boy.
Sure, whatever you say.
You didn't watch the E3 footage did you? No? Didn't think so.
You don't belong here if you assume every game is an exact rip-off of another game.
I really hope Overstrike is not going to be a co-op game. There's four characters, and Insomniac seems to be interested in co-op. They're even making Ratchet & Clank co-op game.
I hate co-op. The AI can't do the job of a human player and other people are annoying and ruin my immersion.

Call me a naive fool, but I'm optimistic about Serious Sam 3. If not even that one can get it right, nothing will, ever again.trollpwner said:
There are three words that continue to bother me.
Mass Effect. Multiplayer.
I do NOT want multiplayer for this game. If Bioware wants to do something aside from the trilogy in the universe, I am all for it, but leave the game single player.

Im concerend about how much the old republic looks like WoW. I mean yeah sure, doing everything different just for the sake of being different is not a good idea. Especially considering how well WoW turned out. Don't fix what isn't broken right?
And I know all mmo's look somewhat the same since you know, they are the same genre.
But after months of bragging about how they put their typical bioware conversations into an mmo, they finally released some actual gameplay footage. And it looks so much like WoW I'm surprised blizzard hasn't sued yet.

Sure they may have added some unique ideas but THIS (getting quests from npc's, riding around on your mount and killing mobs) is what you WILL be doing most of the time. So it counts more than anything else.

I am not worried much, all the games i am excited for are from franchises I trust.
Just got portal 2, it is fantastic. Played infamous 2 (havent bought it yet though) and it's also fantastic.
uncharted 3: this series went from average 3rd person shooter to game of the year so they seem to know how to push Nathan Drake's story in the right direction. Uncharted 2 was fantastic and uncharted 3 looks like it could be even better.
Arkham city: arkham asylum was an awesome game and they are doing new things in a similar but bigger and scarier setting with more elbow room and more baddies to fight and more characters to work with. Sounds damn good to me personally. Also, Hugo strange and two-face competing with the Joker and other villains for territory with batman and catwoman caught in the crossfire? Yes please!
AC revelations: this series has yet to disappoint me and as usual they make more and more improvements. It may still be Ezio but the setting is what I most looking forward to. The ACB multiplayer is fantastic (I still play it) and they are improving things (hopefully the stuff that made us mad) and adding new features which will be great; I am actually more excited for the new multiplayer than i am for single player.
Bioshock infinite: a new, hostile setting that flourishes with color (unlike the blue and brown of rapture) but yet still manages to be mysterious and intimidating for the player which will hopefully bring back the feeling of awe and wonder that the player felt when they first arrived in rapture.

You've got it wrong. Its not random quests, it's random parts of the quest. So, the dungeon you'll go to will be one you haven't been. Assassination quests will target people you've talked to before. The person whom you'll rescue from the fort will be different. the quest itself is scripted, the players and items and the location will change though, for replay value.SmashLovesTitanQuest said:
OT: I'm not concerned really, I know exactly how its going to play out. Skyrim isn't going to be as good as everyone thinks but its still going to be in my top 5 games and take a 100 hours of my life away. Batman is going to take many hours away from gliding and lining across the city, and is going to be very good. Assassin's creed revelation can be summed up by this quote made last year by an associate producer of AC:
"I don't think there's going to be an Assassin's Creed in 2011. I think we're going to let it breathe a bit and really focus on bringing something new and exciting for the next time around. This [Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood] is the end of Ezio's story. This is it."
Mass Effect 3 - I love the series and hopes it doesn't end up a disappointing conclusion 
Deus Ex 3 - I hope I won't be dissapointed
Assassins Creed Revelations: I dunno ... Nah, fuck that! It'll kick ass!
Skyrim ... too much hype
Diablo 3 - 11 years of development ... I hope it doesn't pull a Duke Nukem Forever on us

Yeah, I'm just saying...they're probably gonna have a building collapse on him, or have him go out in a blaze of gunfire against billions of other assholes or kaimikaze a skyscraper in an icecream truck or something...Just a worryment more than anything.ReservoirAngel said:
So far I haven't seen anything in Skyrim that convinces me that it's anything more than Oblivion with a better engine (not even anything that convinces me that it's Morrowind with a better engine) and that doesn't necessarily bode well.
What I think Skyrim needs in order to distinguish itself from Oblivion is better story telling and a rich world full of mature themes, maturely presented. It's almost cliche at this point, but I want the best parts of Oblivion combined with the best parts of Morrowind. Bethesda has dropped some hints to suggest this is the way they're going. But it's not much to go on and we won't know for sure until 11/11/11. While I have big dreams, Oblivion taught me to keep my expectations grounded. If Skyrim is just a better looking Oblivion, that's still a game I'm very excited about, not to mention the many improvements to systems that were broke as fuck in Oblivion.Kahunaburger said:
Out of curiosity, what would Skyrim have to do to 'wow' you, Kahuna?
Basically, exactly what you said - the best parts of Oblivion and Morrowind. That and a good magic systemRooster Cogburn said:
