Forums - Gaming - What are you buying from now until the end of the year?

Post what you are buying for the next ~4 months for any system. They don't have to be new games, just planned purchases and platform doesn't matter. Include notes on why you want the game if you want, or just make a huge list.

Between those games and my other hobbies I doubt I'll finish them all, so some (Kirby & Donkey Kong probably) may slip into next year if I run out of time or they don't come with bonus offers over at Amazon.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Definate buys are:

  • Mass Effect 1 (and 2 assuming the first is good!) - got a 360 recently so looking forward to giving this a go
  • Civ V - Loved both Civ III and IV
  • GT5 - looks fantastic
  • LB2 - probably my most anticipated game of the year

Probably

  • Ensalved - Thought Heavenly Sword was a great game, characters and story were very impressive so looking forward to Ninja Theory's latest effort
  • Fable III - Not decided on this yet, will see how much time the other games take up


I think I have too many games to purchase and too little time:

  • Halo: Reach, cause, you know, I really like Halo
  • Medal of Honor: I play a ton of mp on my 360, so will buy this for my PS3.  This makes sense to me...
  • Black Ops: for my 360 to play with the regular crew
  • Metroid: Other M - I don't have enough games for my Wii, and I'm really looking forward to this one.

The next three games, I will spend enough hours on, to NOT have time to play any of the games I listed above...and yet I'll somehow find the time for all (lack of sleep incoming):

  • Fallout: New Vegas (can't wait!)
  • Fable III ( I dig Ablion)
  • Civilization V (I suck at this game, but still love it)

I also have recently purchased Brutal Legends, and Dragon Age: Awakenings (both un-played) and will purchase Infamous soon.



LBP2!!

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep

Medal of Honor(Maybe)

Sly Collection(I loved Sly Cooper in the PS2)

Between having a house that needs maintanence, a child who poops your money away (as much as I absolutely love him his diapers are expensive), video games, and board games I don't have any money (or time) left for a 4th system.

But hey, I did just beat Assassin's Creed II and really want Brotherhood, but waiting 6 months and picking up II for $20 new makes me want to wait again.

Pre-Ordered:

Metroid: Other M - Never cared for the Prime series, but this one looks like a lot of fun

Kirby: Epic Yarn - LOVE Kirby, been waiting 10 years for this game (well, a console Kirby platformer)

Probably: 

Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock - love the sound track and GameStop's Axe Guitar.  

Either Goldeneye and/or Conduit 2  -  can't wait for some split-screen FPS love

Limbo, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light

If released in NA: Secret Files 2: Puritas Cordis - cause I love playing adventure games from the comfort of my couch 

Possibly but probably not this year unless as Christmas gifts:

DKCR, Wii Party, NBA JAM, Ivy the Kiwi, Dragon's Age Awakening, Goldeneye or Conduit (whichever I didn't get originally),  FlingSmash, NHL 2k11 (or EA's NHL Slapshot),

Slight chance: 

Sid Meier's Pirates, Create, Flips Twisted World, Lost in Shadows, New Carnival Games, Hooked Again, Trackmania, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (360)
