Some good Halo Wars footage.

This video makes me trust EA on Dead Space.

Did I tell you that I love EA lately?

Somehow I seem to have lost my link to the teaser for "I Am Alive", but it looks like a nice premise. Just google "I Am Alive", it should be easy to find.

Dragon Age: Origins is a game I just can't be sure about. I've never played Baldur's Gate, so I have nothing to reference it on.

Spore, of course, is something I'm looking forward to. Just have to stay out of the way of galaxies of phallic aliens.

Fable 2 will be nice, not much to say on that front.

And, as stated in another thread, I'm looking forward to Fallout 3.

That being said, I'll move on. I'm currently very disappointed in Rare regarding Banjo-Threeie. (I refuse to call it Nuts and Bolts, just to help cushion my broken heart) All the casual shit being released on 360 makes me turn back to the PC to play some old classics while waiting for classics in the making. I am, however, looking forward to the new Viva Pinata. Don't judge me, it's an awesome game.

By the way, what's the deal with Left 4 Dead? It doesn't look that great to me.

So on, so forth. Anyway, just kind of wanted to consolidate most of the "new game" threads into one with some more options and new content.

Never really liked Halo. I'm not sure why... I just couldn't ever really get into it.

Fallout 3 - Seriously two words is all thats needed. "Fat Boy" Not that kid thats sinking at a pool at burger king with floaties and trying to eat a big mac. But a nuclear projectile laucher. Serisouly that should sell the game itself.

I'll have to say Spore, I never really cared much for Fable.

I'm also extremely disapointed by Ensemble and Microsoft that Halo Wars is being released on 360, I therefore refuse to acknowledge it.

I'm also disapointed by Banjo Threeie as well, I was a huge fan of the original on N64 and despite being a gamer who's able to acknowledge the strong points of each different console, it hurts me to see a franchise I grew up with go over to 360. . . I also hate the way Threeie looks . . . *Sniff*

Yeah, but see, I'm not buying F3 for firepower, but for the RPG. I love that the combat is real-time, but I'm focusing on the story and the word and the survival aspect rather than the shooting. It's damn cool, I'll give you that, but I'm too much of an RPG fanatic to drool over F3 for the Fat Boy. I'll drool over it because it's Fallout 3.

Dude, watch the Halo Wars footage. They've totally redesigned the RTS, this is a CRTS. A Console Real Time Strategy. It's amazing, I can totally imagine how easy it would be to play and how much fun.

Yeah but if you want to explain to anyone that doesn't know about it already then just explain Fat Boy and see if they don't perk up so you can really talk about it.

I'm not buying it just for the fat boy. I'm buying it because its a WRPG, if done right I really like post-nuclear castrophy(sp)game. The dialog is going to better. And overall its going to be a more mature rpg which i'm really in the need for since mass effect sucked...

Oh yeah, I'm also pretty excited about Gyakuten Kenji (I think it's english name is Miles Edgeworth: Perfect Prosecutor, but I can't actually recall), for anyone that doesn't know it's an Ace Attorney spinoff in a more Point'n'Click format rather than the visual novel style previous games.

And that point was made while i need some sleep>.>

Didn't really like mass effect I dunno. Loathed playing it since I was hoping for a KOTORish game but instead it came out different.. And I didn't like it. Especially the conversation wheel.. If they use that again theres going to be hell to pay. Seriously I don't like it when theres a random chance what you think will happen won't happen and your guy goes off the deep end.

Thanks for the edit sleepless is not good but then again not being able to go to sleep isn't either What i'm experiencing(Takes a toll on my train of thought, comfort level, spelling and grammar.

I kinda liked the conversation wheel, but it could be improved.

A lot.

Man, it's been so long since I remember hearing any new news about Starcraft 2, I totally forgot about it. And Diablo III I just forgot about. Besides, those two games go without saying that you're going to buy them.

I wouldnt worry about Halo Wars, in a few years time, when MS have a new OS to push, they'll probably find a version of Halo Wars for PC, that only works on the new system, despite looking like it could run on windows 95.

cynical much? :D

For me tho, D3 and Fallout 3.

You put Fable and Spore on the same poll, and I can't vote twice. No fair. D:

No love for Mirror's Edge, guys? It's second on my list.

MIrror's Edge looks interesting. It's just not top priority on my "What to get when you scrounge up enough cash" list.

Mirror's Edge has me fascinated, although I can't see an entirely decent-sized game coming from it. Although maybe it'll be another Portal: short but unforgettable, but I doubt it'll create as many timeless phrases (I still hunt for the cake, fellow buccaneers).

Spore, even though it's overhyped it'll actually be fun.

Halo Wars can rot for all I care. I really don't like that game already becuase now it's just plain obvious bungie is milking the series for all it's worth....you know, besides the action figures and posters and beer glasses and party cups and keychains and jackets and laser tag and shirts and fat heads (giants stickers you stick on your wall)and alot more.

Other: Persona 4 and Star Ocean 4 are both going to be epic. (Well, SO4 much more than P4)

As much as I don't like where Bethesda is going with it, I gotta say Fallout 3. Although I almost voted "other" as I really am looking foward to Far Cry 2.

From what's on the list it's Fable for me. Unfortunately no Gears 2, I can't wait for that.

Fable 2 FTW! Seriously, I've beaten Fable the Lost Chapters 24 1/2 times in anticipation for this game. Online Co-op is gonna be sweet (BTW if anyone wants to Co-op just send me a message. :) )

Fable 2 for me. Few games have earned my love (I never actually heard any of Molyneux's hype beforehand, making it a better experience for me), and Fable was one of them.

Halo did as well, but then a friend showed me Half-life, and I couldn't appreciate Bungie after that moment.

As for Spore and Fallout, I really don't know.

It's LucasArts in short pants, I think you mean.
