What games are you waiting for this year?

[Conqueror Kenny]

In no real order but here it goes:
-Fable 2
-Ninja Gaiden ||
-L4D
-DBZ:BL (it was a good demo)
-GOW2

 

[Piorn]

-Spore (awesome!)
-force unleashed (a bit)
-left4dead (looks interesting)

My PC needs a massive upgrade though...

I saw the bootleg Spore vids two years ago and have been waiting for it since. It's definitely going to require a PC upgrade, I fear.

I've been struggling with myself ever since Assassin's Creed. Never got it myself because of my shitty CPU.

1. Fallout 3
2. Alone in the dark
3. Mirrors edge
4. Prince of persia


Always waiting for Alan Wake lol.

It tends to change each week but the mainstays are;

Fable 2
Splinter Cell:Conviction
Metal Gear Solid 4 (No PS3 currently but that may soon change)
Mirrors Edge (Incredible looking game)
Force Unleashed

Gear of War 2 looks great from what i've seen, but it needs to be riddled with variety to make me want to buy it.

Other than that, Fallout 3 maybe, just hoping Bethesda don't ruin the original idea.

 

[shadow skill]

MGS 4, Ninja Gaiden 2, Mirrors Edge, Fable 2. My 360 shall definetly get some use next month!

[roo18]

Its pretty much just Fable 2 and GOW2 for me. I'm looking forward to some new games.

 

[Spleenbag]

In no particular order...

Fallout 3
Fable 2 (didn't play the first one, should I?)
Borderlands (Diablo-style random items-RPG meets Mass Effect/Halo)
Force Unleashed
MGS4
Mirror's Edge (will be the best game ever if it's anything like what we've seen)
Spore
Alone in the Dark (looks pretty cool, if my wallet's not dead by then I might rent it at least)
Duke Nukem Forever


Jesus, that's a lot of games. I was hoping to have time to get around to beating some old ones this year, but I guess not... And as usual, they are mostly coming out within the same 4-month timespan. BLEARGH!

EDIT: Splinter Cell Conviction has been delayed to '09. Good, I suppose, cause now i can play other games.

 

[noolli]

Operation troy in England, its already out in japan. it looks awesome.

 

[Ruffythepirate]

Star Wars: Force Unleashed.

 

[Spleenbag]

Does anyone else think that Mirror's Edge might end up as a sort of tech-demo like Portal? I have trouble believing that so much work could be put into it with all the innovation they're doing.

Also: Do I need to play Fable to understand Fable 2?

Also also: WHY THE FUCK DOES EVERYTHING HAVE TO COME OUT DURING THE BEGINNING OF SCHOOL/THE SAME FOUR-MONTH PERIOD? It forces me to wait 'til Winter Break to really play games. I wish game devs (or maybe it's the publishers, in this case) would understand that if the game is good enough, people will buy it no matter what time of year it's released. Look at Bioshock and GTA IV! They sold really well with non-normal release dates. Bioshock was the middle of the summer and GTA was May, so evidently games don't need to be released during the "holiday season". When do you think the devs/publishers will get the picture?
