Games You're Eagerly Awaiting

Fallout 3:

Spoiler

Blowing up a town with a nuke and then getting your own apt for it: Priceless.

Mirror's Edge, looks interesting. Some of the chase scenes over the bulding tops makes me hopeful that someone over at EA is saying HEY, WE CAN USE THIS FOR THE NEXT SPIDERMAN!"

Sadly, I can't think of anything I'm eagerly awaiting right now.

Pokemon Platinum, coming to America on 3.22.09. Will be the first Pokemon I've played since Red.

Dragon Quest V, as well, will be coming to the DS. From what I've heard it's one of the best and a high point of the series. Chrono Trigger on DS will also be tasty. That game is so whole and well-made; feels like four seasons of an excellent, endearing sci-fi TV program. They just don't make games that nuanced or deep anymore.

Red Faction: Guerilla looks quite fun. Several of my classmates are also looking forward to it

So I got my hands on the demo, and it was such a blast that I actually preordered it. Not bad for a game that I didn't know was in development until a few weeks ago

The buildings seem like they fall apart too easily, but given the premise of the game (that sh** blows up), that's understandable.

Alien Vs Predator for the Xbox360. It's being worked on by Rebellion the guys who did the first one for the PC.

Two more downloadable content packs are planned - one next month and another one after. The next one adds a large swamp region to the game and the following pack adds an alien mothership (which abducts you). I cannot wait.

Oops. Fallout 3.

On the subject of expansions, I heard that GTA IV will have another one named The Ballad of Gay Tony.

God, I hope its true, even if I won't play it

It comes out tonight... 6 more hours until I can pick it up, and then two more until I can play it! Aargh... how can I stand waiting?!?!?

(Of course, that's nothing compared to the wait for AATE

The Last Guardian. Yes folks, this is the new one from Team Ico (Ico and Shadows of the Colossus), and this may be the reason that I will have to buy a PS3. I was so in love with the previous games from this team that I hope this one isn't a let down. From what I am seeing in this footage, my heart is already going out to the bird/cat/rat thing.

The Secret of Monkey Island

To be honest, I'm really not sold on the character designs. Still, I'm eager to see how it turns out.

Post by **Rigel** » Mon Jun 08, 2009 8:53 pm

I love the previous Monkey Island games. I heard about this over the weekend, and got really stoked about it

I don't mind the character designs, as they always looked a little funny, but the voices... something about them doesn't seem quite right to me.

Scribblenauts

Not an exciting title, but hear me out.

It could be either the best game in years or a massive disappointment, depending on whether the developers are right about its capabilities.

Observe: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vB1Wnbhlzrs

My concern is that the player needs to know what they're expected to type. Take the invisibilty cloak that appears in that video; what if I typed 'invisibility hat' instead? As a friend pointed out, it's likely that copyrighted material will be absent from the game (so, as he said, no summoning Skeletor) but how thoroughly have other options been accounted for?

If the game can do what the developers claim, it could be a truly remarkable playing experience. If not...it could be the biggest gaming letdown since Bioware cocked up Sonic: Dark Brotherhood (or any other gaming faux pas of your choice). The game's website dares us to think of something they haven't included - a bold dare, and one I plan to take them up on once the game arrives later this year.

Diablo III!!

Post by **JazFusion** » Tue Jun 16, 2009 6:17 pm

Splinter Cell: Conviction (note: I've never played any of its predecessors, but this one looks pretty amazing)

Assassin's Creed 2

Batman: Arkham Asylum

Mass Effect 2

Overlord 2

Left 4 Dead 2

I'd be all about Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2....if I had a PC that could PLAY them. I lack such a machine. *sob*
