Brutal Legend-Fuck! Yes! I am so there! A video game with Lemmy,Rob Halford,Ronnie James Dio and Jack Black in it,A whole game based on metal and rock...It must be mine!

matrix3509:
Hmm... Lets See...

Brutal Legend - It has Jack Black. Thats all I gotta say. Oh, AND its being made by Double Fine.

Fuck yeah, Right?

Personally, I just hve one minor problem with that. For everything that Psychonauts did right (and theres a hell of a lot of it) it had some pretty meh gameplay and controls. While everything else about Brutal Legend will be awesome, I'm kinda worried that the actual gameplay will be lacking the lustre of all the other aspects.

We just have to hope that double fine have learned from their past mistakes. I guess we just have to wait and see.

Well, the gameplay trailer didn't exactly fill me with confidence.

Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy versus XIII, Killzone 2, God of war III, Diablo III, Resident Evil 5, Kingdom Hearts 3, Portal 2, Eyepet, and idk surprise me PS3. :]

I somehow doubt we'll see a new Kingdom Hearts in 2009. If there were, Squenix would have used it to dominate the Tokyo Games Show.

Don't squander mah dreams!

it came from a sunday edition of a paper releashed in victoria, australia. not the internet. i remember it because it mad a big deal about the games that the gamers couldent wait for (apparently) and almolst everything was a sequal or a movie licence

OK i found it. (and heres what i think)
Sonic and the black Knight (let sonic die please)
Empire: total war (eventually their will be Gaza Strip:total war)
The Sims 3 (well, there goes passing university)
Batman: Arkham asylum (nothing to do with the movies, back to the camp joker, looks a bit like bioshock...)
GTA: China town wars (rascist much? (actually i wanted a Tokyo GTA))
Wolfenstien (yeah, cause this series keeps getting better and wont just cash in on nostalgia AT ALL!)
Resident Evil 5 (Should be evicted)
Street Fighter IV (there are actually more than 20 street fighter games...)
Ghost busters: The video game (did it just call ITSELF a "VIDEO" GAME?!?! garunteed suck BALLS! and not Jeremys)
Tom Clancy HAWX (because we need more tom clancy games, just for the record, his books and movies suck pretty bad)
Red Faction: Guerrilla (because this series gets better every time, and needs to be more generic AND be in 3rd person.(read the storyline, soooo poor))
HALO 3:ODST (just so all X-Box exclusive players know, the Halo series is not actually THAT good. its good, just not THAT good that it needs a spin off series and an RTS based on it)
God of War 3 (cause it is so original and not just a cash cow)
Bioshock (OK, even i am exited about this one, it is a sequal, AND a prequel)
Harry potter and the half blood prince: The VIDEOGAME(wow, they could make a clone of a CD-i Game and it would sell a bazillion copies with that name)
Chrono Trigger (this game was released in 1995. thats right 19-fricken 5! now it is so old that they can run it on a DS. its a SNES game for Fracks sake!)
Heavy Rain (the 3rd game from Quantic Dream, a french studio from the 90's. if you are not exited about this and the "origami killer" then WTF is wrong with you? oh, not you type of game? ok... still IM EXITED)
Tekken 6 (because we need more overdone sequals to fighting games.)
Wii Sports Resort. a sequal to Wii sports. who needs games with style, personality and original ideas? lets just use the same gimmic again with annother bland title, hey! no originality, gimmicky, generic titles and style yet huge profits? NINTENDO IS JUST LIKE DISNEY!)
Assassins Creed 2 (press X not to die and agree to sequal to make truckloads of money curtosy of DX 10)
Bayonetta ( a witch with guns foy hands and feet named bayonetta? holy shit! what are they thinking?!? and did they even pass engish? who comes up with this crap?)
100 classic book collection (turns the DS into an E book... with classic litriture. because DSs and shakespere go together so well. bounus points if you turn a page by closeing the display and opening it again.
Uncharted 2: Among Theves (just like Laura croft exept with out the BIG BOOBS and amazingly still better, because it is so difficult to have a better game than laura croft...)

sorry, i have been watching the Angry Video Game Nerd lately.

Ok, so they had 4.

Bright_Raven:

Ghost busters: The video game (did it just call ITSELF a "VIDEO" GAME?!?! garunteed suck BALLS! and not Jeremys)

The sript and voice acting being done by the original cast, the gameplay looks sick, there is very little percentage of fail with this one.

Bright_Raven:

God of War 3 (cause it is so original and not just a cash cow)

Name me one God of War game that has not been aweome. Plus, the game will conclude with the destruction of all of creation - how many other games do that?

Bright_Raven:

Tekken 6 (because we need more overdone sequals to fighting games.)

Have you tried it yet?

In no particular order... except for the final five.

15. Diablo 3 - too young to have remembered the Diablos before it, but it looks like some really intense gameplay, and online would be interesting.
14. Lord of the Rings Conquest - the Battlefront games are still incredible.
13. Champions Online - an MMO, with superheroes, on a console. I've waited for this for so long.
12. MadWorld - love the style, and the cinematic death sequences are awesome.
11. Batman Arkham Asylum - a standalone Batman game with no movie tie-ins? Yes please.
10. Halo 3: Recon - trailer was fantastic, and Bungie usually manages to sneak some fun into their games.
9. Massive Action Game - wait, how many people online?
8. Ratchet and Clank Future 2 - loved the first, still haven't gotten the downloadable one yet though.
7. inFAMOUS - very cool concept, cant wait to see how it pans out.
6. Ghostbusters: The Video Game - gameplay looks really interesting, plus it's Ghostbusters.

Okay, now there is a particular order.
5. Brutal Legend - after Psychonauts, I trust Tim Schafer with my life, let alone another game.
4. Mass Effect 2 - haven't heard much on it, but adored the first.
3. Prototype - this one has potential to be my GotY, so long as it's mind-blowingly fun.
2. God of War 3 - the last one's ending left me in a state of sheer awe for a solid 4 hours.
1. Paws and Claws Pet Resort - that's a lie.
ACTUAL #1. Resident Evil 5 - RE4 is one of my all-time faves.

Well here's my list in no order:

1. Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (Ok if it is Fire Emblem, I will get it.)
2. White Knight Chronicles (Looks like a pretty good RPG.)
3. BioShock 2 (Oh please come out in '09.)
4. Kingdom Hearts 385/2 Days (Besides the weird title it looks like it will be a standard KH game.)
5. Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep (Same as 385/2 but without a weird title and 10 years earlier.)
6. Final Fantasy XIII (Ok I like final fantasy, just not X or X-2. I am getting Final Fantasy VII Advent Children Complete just for the playable FF XIII demo in it. Maybe I might get to watching the movie sometime XP)
7. The Sims 3 (Liked The Sims 2, I'm pretty sure it will follow the same overall gameplay as it.)
8. Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (CoD 4 was so good nothing will stop me from getting this.)
9. Dragon Ball Online (A Dragon Ball....M...M...O.. this will be interesting if they pull this off.)
10. Halo 3: ODST (A Halo game that is not about Master Chief and isn't Halo Wars? Sold.)
11. Diablo 3 (Ok this game looks AWESOME! And Blizzard is awesome enough to release it on the Mac, Thanks!)
12. The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf (I dont have a PC so I couldn't play the original, but this console version is said to be similar.)
13. Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection (It's actually another Sega Genesis Collection but with more games, and more sonic, yes.)
14. F.E.A.R. 2: Project Orgins (I likey mah FPS's)
15. Battlefield Heroes (Kinda reminds me of TF2, in third person.)

-and the moment you've all been waiting for-

16. 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand. (.......HAHAHA.... OK I can't wait to see how "good" this game will be. I might just pick this game up to see how much it "reminds" me of Bulletproof. Otherwise just...no... how can this be a good game idea. Seriously?)

15? Seriously? cut that back to 5, I mean a majority of the kids on the forums are lucky to get 15 games in a year.

So we have to not think a game looks good because we might not be able to afford it? We can still think something looks attractive even if its beyond our means. For instance, I want a hybrid.

13. Ghostbusters: The Video Game

I thought this was getting abandoned? Am i thinking of something else or has a new developer picked it up or...

Indigo_Dingo:
5. Massive Action Game (working title)

I havn't found the step up in amount of players to be worth it in any game so far BUT it is from zipper, of SOCOM fame, and i freaking loved that series, even if i only got to cookie towards the end :-(. A wholelly different cookie is someone here knows what im on about.

Indigo_Dingo:
9. Ratchet and Clank Future 2
Word is they now have a gun that shoots train tunnels - one shot for the starting point, the other for where it goes to. Like a cross between Portal and a Wile E. Coyote cartoon.

Hadnt heard about any of that yet, what a bad fan ive been, well YAY for the return to insane weapons in the R&C series - everything since 3 has been a bit lacklustre in comparison.

Anyway 15 is a bit much so i wont make a list yet, and im not sure of release dates but the new SOCOM and Fat princess sound awesome, as does FFXIII and its underlings.. err... Ok thats about it unless ICO and Dues ex come out (soon to be) this year, in which case god damn get back into development, you need another decade.

The studio itself remains the same, its just changing hands in publishers to Atari.

I couldn't think of any when I came on here, but now...

Afro Samurai-I love the style, the music...hell, theres not much I don't like about this game. But I don't know that much about it, so we'll see...

I Am Alive-I know sod all about this, but its certainly looks interesting. I like the whole survivors feel to it (man, that show is awesome)

Bioshock 2-Its bioshock. Ofcoarse I'm fucking excited. If it is this next year that is.

MadWorld-Such juicy juicy violence. Mmmm...Heart Surgery

And last, but most definitely not least

Brutal Legend-...*passes out*. I was pretty hyped even before I played Psyconauts. But now...Oh jesus. Tim freaking Shafter and Jack Black. Its a match made in gaming heaven.

The only new releases i'm compeletely aware of this year are Edge of Twilight and Prototype.
i only tend to worry about games when they've actually been released, then i don't have to get all huffy about how long it's taking for a game to come out.
