Gears of War 3

Forza MotorSport 4

KingDoms

Already a Awesome list for me add all the E3 Godness like Alan Wake 2 , Halo Wars 2 and new Halo or Games and 2011 is set to be another great year!

Plus all those Kinect Games coming out from Microsoft like Codename D and whatever... Microsoft must love Codenames ... Lool

But right now im much more hyped for 2012 because new Xbox will came out for sure that year ! till there i have Forza , Halo and Gears so no prob... plus other games like ZOMG Dead Space 2 , ZOMFG Mass Effect 3 or ZOMFGGGGGG Black ops :D

The latter won't happen. Ensemble were closed down by MS and I can't see 343 opting to develop a console RTS over an FPS/action title.

As for Alan Wake 2, I'm not sure the sales of the first can justify Microsoft investing in a sequel. I suppose it's not out of the question if Remedy can show convincing plans to MS that they can expand with a second title and reach more consumers, but I personally reckon that IP is finished.

Microsoft is more to blame for Alan Wake sales than Remedy is.

Why lack of marketing? I plan to get this game on a sale this fall.

Yes. They gave it no push at all, except for internet ads and trailers, which were good, but it needed more. Anyway, it's one of my favorite games this year, so I definitely recommend it.

I guess Red Dead Redemption to some extent also played a role since that was a hot release during that month.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

I know I'm being a kinect hater as of late, but is MS still focusing on the core gamer? Anything that uses that boring ol' physical controller?

They could have pushed Alan Wake back and released it the week of the 360 Slim. Then many new gamers would get it with their console, so long as it's advertized a bit.

So you have really bad eye sight do you? And They never said anything about better or worse only different ME2 could go either way, dragon age origins looks better on ps3 after all, and multiplats don't really matter much anyways I said impossible in any practical way, they would of had to downgrade the graphics and put it on over 4 disks probably have to downgrade the AI too, who knows what would of happens to the framerate, yes the kingdom hearts team is the one doing versus and like I already mentioned unlike all the 360 games that get ported over there is the possibility that it will be far too impractical to port in a way that will make it playable if they used alot of the ps3s potential, of course if they anticipated possibly porting it (like they did for FFXIV) then it shouldn't be a problem but I don't think they did

My friends have been trying to push me into Dragon Age, after you ban ends, tell me if it's good. I really love ME, and people tell me it's similar. Either way that game is best played on a PC, and I'll look into that graphics bit (PS3 - 360).

Man 3rd person to get banned debating me.... I'm like some bad luck charm for overly strong PS3 supporters.

Anyway good point about Versus, and I'm not saying your wrong, I just have a feeling it's going multiplatform, without a drop in graphics. End of debate.

Well, actually he got banned for another thread, saying Microsoft paid off Kinect reviewers.

IMO, on Versus, I would prefer they port it after they complete the game's development and release it on PS3.

Oh.... okay well then I'm not a terrible bad luck charm afterall...

Anyway, as for Versus, thats cool, but I'm thinking it' going to mimic FFXIII altogether. Same launch date in EU and NA and if FFXIII does well for the 360 in Japan, then maybe WW it will have a multiplatform release on both consoles.

I haven't really played ME much, but from what I know the dialog tree is similar but not identical, and some of the character upgrades but for the most part it's a very different game, ME is more shooter then anything dragon age is full rpg, but that said, if you like rpgs you'll like dragon age, and it seems like anyone saying anything bad about MS gets banned no matter how true it is, and about versus, unless they hold back the ps3 version it's impossible for that to happen, I mean FFXIII was a turn based rpg and it was quite a drastic drop in graphics, and if you are right, they wouldn't have made the game the best it can be, so already gamers lose

Wow, I hope Microsoft has a lot more games to announce. Don't get me wrong, I hope Kinnect is awesome............but it probably won't be..........at least for a while. I guess we'll have to wait and see! Man, if they didn't have Gears 3, this list would look pretty pathetic! .............. it kinda does even with it. Gears 3 will be awesome, I'm sure. But Microsoft can't depend on one game to carry the year.

Microsoft has a tendancy to annouce Big games late. Forza 3 was announced at E3 2009, and Gears 2 was announced in February 2008, both came out the year of release. I'm just curious what they will announce.

Maybe EA will make Mass Effect 3? probably not for 2011, but I hope. Project Gotham Racing 5 is possible, and you never know what Rare could do. A properly funded Banjo Kazooie Platformer, a Conker sequel, Killer Instinct 3. However MS has not funded Rare enough in past 360 games...

Somehow, I feel something big from Rare is comming because MS will unlikely creat a new IP.

ME3 will be a multiplat almost certainly, it's probably the main reason their porting ME2 so late, as for Rare their working on a kinect game, thats already been announced

Rare has ~300 people, they are working on more than 1 game and some avatar stuff.

The differences between the PS3 and 360 graphically are not much. They just process differently. PS3 can multi-process better, but the 360 can handle textures and total polygon counts better. A well made game (like Resident Evil 5, or Batman: Arkham Asylum) will look almost identical on both consoles, and still push the bar graphically.

As for Dragon Age, I love RPG's, but not all types of RPG's. I though FFX and Fable 2 were terrible, but Golden Sun, Lost Odyssey, Fallout 3 and ME2 are among my favorites. I'm going to play it at my buddy's house one day and see what it's like, but from what I hear, it's best to get the game on PC. Best graphics, the controls aren't forced onto a controller, and I can zoom out in battle, no fixed close up camera.

As for people getting banned, I think a lot of people here are very critical of Microsoft. Nintendo never gets this much scrutiny, it's generally accepted as the dominant form of gaming. However PS3 and 360 fans are always at competition, and Sony has had a more successful past (meaning, more loyal followers, and wishful thinkers). So, it's just stupid debating. It's best to leave opinions debatable, but leave them at opinions. If someone like me beleives FFXIII Versus will go multiplatform, feel free to debate me, but don't insult me please. I say things for all consoles that anyone could argue, thats why it's just opinion. Based on knowledge, but I'm not professional analyst.

P.S. If ME3 is multiplatform (which it will likely be), it will also be a timed exclusive, and I want to finish this story asap. I can't wait a year. Also without your own decisions from the first game, it's just not as fun..
