EDIT: but don't worry... it's not like it's the end of the world
It hasn't been delayed till 2012, it says it could be held back as far as 2012. But most people have given it a release window some time after April in line with the start of the fiscal year as SquareEnix moved it to the next fiscal year.Treblaine said:How's this for disappointingManji187 said:

Dangit... the guys at Eidos should really update their Deus Ex website once in a while. It still says "available early 2011".Treblaine said:How's this for disappointingManji187 said:

Heh, nice start of the year.
As a PC Gamer first and foremost and a WOW hater (its works not play!) I still think it will be an amazing year for games, but that depends on the end product. So this is much short list of games that are 90% guaranteed to rock.
Portal 2 - Only game company I know that will throw out half a game and a year of work if said content is not up to snuff, Valve cannot make a bad game, it's part of their DNA.
DA2 -Bioware has never made a bad game
ME3 -They are the gaming equivalent of Peter Jackson (I'd say Nolan but Jackson fits better)
Deus Ex 2- say gameplay at TGS, looks like the original + plus advances of the last decade
Batman Arkham City - This studio opened it big game business with the first batman, melding the DC Animated, Comic, and movie francise into a better whole, they know what they are doing no reason to expect less from the sequel.
The Witcher 2 - First game is firmly in my top games of all time, right next to Grim Fandango and the Valve games. They seem to be turning it up to 11 for the sequal with all their own tech.
The Old Republic - as a rule i cannot stand MMO's, they all feel like second jobs - that i pay to go to, however please see above for the trust in BioWare statement
As for the other stuff:
DNF - Gearbox makes games that range for C- to A-, have never really made a truly exception game, and this game is someone elses work too. We will see.
LA Noir look promising but then again its Rockstar and their games have only gottn more boring the more "gritty" they have gone. If they do not use this facial tech so i can play the game organically i won't see the appeal, and i will probably know who the killer is 5 min. in.
Diablo 3 - meh
Elder Scrolls 5 - they had a lot to fix from 4, to make me buy 5 that and its doubtful to ship this year

Holy crap your right. But there was some really shit titles in there like Resident Evil 2, but some gems in there like, Grim Van Dingo, MGS1 and Half life.RAKtheUndead said:
Looks like 2011 is going to be revolved around over the top shooters... and Portal 2.
I only listed ORIGINAL games of 2007, so of course no Tools of Destruction or Unreal Tournament 3 and so on.Xzi said:
I'd disagree with your assessment of Heavenly Sword and Resistance, I have played them and found them both very original and very engaging. But that's just conflicting opinions, you should know that I am not the only one who hold those game in high regard which i think counts them as noteworthy.
I also fear that:
-Alice 2
-Deus Ex 3
-Mass Effect 3
-MGS Rising
-Diablo 3
-Heroes M&M IV
-Beyond Good & Evil 2
-MechWarrior 5
Will not be released before 2012. That's just my opinion based on the companies behind them and all the many many other factors such as lack of demonstrated content, established studio trends and release date commitments.
Well, if The Last Guarding actually comes out this year, then it's going to be a pretty sweet year. Again, a HUGE amount of sequels, but some reboots of older franchises and a pretty good beginning has my hopes up (LBP 2 and MVC3 in the space of 2 months is awesome).
Good point it could be released in 2011, but I think it will go as far back as 2012.Muta Ro said:It hasn't been delayed till 2012, it says it could be held back as far as 2012.

It's just a hunch.
Portal 2
Telltale's Jurassic Park series
Skyrim
Arkham City
Mass Effect 3
L.A. Noire
Probably Dragon Age 2, but DA:Origins will be one of my belated buys this year, along with L4D2.

Yes. It will be the best year of gaming. Like 2010 was.
Kind of like how 2009 was.
Kind of like how 2008 was.
Kind of like how 2007 was.
Kind of like... get my point?

I am only looking forward to TES: Skyrim, Dragon Age 2, Diablo 3, Arkham City and maybe LA Noir (if its any good).
