Buying games is one thing. Finding time to play them is another. How on earth are you going to have time to play all those games this Fall? There are a couple of games I want but I'm gonna be in school and really don't have that much time to play all of them so the only must-buy for me this fall is Resistance 2.

Others I may be giving a shot are (I only own a ps3):

Motorstorm 2
Bioshock
LBP
Silent Hill
Golden Axe
SOCOM
Eternal Sonata
Saints Row 2
Fallout 3
Quantum of Solace
Naruto
Project Origin
Tomb Raider Underworld
The Lord of the Rings:Conquest
Far Cry 2
fracture

If I had the time and money, I'll purchase all the aforementioned games. I kinda have the money but the time just isn't there and it makes no sense to purchase them noww when I may be able to get them cheaper when I finally have time to play them.

I just don't get why everyone releases their games during the holiday season. There's been a game drought on the ps3 during the summer break (when people tend to have more time). Now it's fall, and they are putting everything out.

 

 Project origin was moved to 2009 luckily...but you reminded about golden axe. Dead Space too...god damn it...500 dollars in games this holliday season.

I really wish game devs would stagger their releases all year long. Smaller games like golden axe are most likely gonna be left unnoticed this fall and end up selling for cheap at a loss. I feel sorry for the devs of these games. The holiday season is not the only time people play games...why don't companies get this?

Its will benefit the consumer though because many of this games would end up dropping their prices fast due to poor sales stemming from immense competition and there's only so much money and time to spend especially here in the US where there is a recession.
