Forums - Gaming - Top 10 games your most hyped up for in 2011!

Doesn't have to be 10.  10 or below will do.

10. Resistance 3

Okay first of all I have not played Resistance 1 but I did play 2 and it was pretty good.  I've heard that 1 was better but whatever.  Resistance 3 is looking pretty good from what we've seen so far.  Which is little but still enough.  I'll be waiting for more info before I choose to buy it Day 1.

9.  The Last Story

This game is looking pretty good.  Hopefully it is released here in the US.  

8.  Pokemon Black/White

Yes, POKEMON!  I have no idea why, but no matter how much I hate some of the Pokemon they keep coming out with, I still find myself getting hyped up and buying it.  I'll most likely be getting White.  Since the Legendary looks like a total badass!

7. Dead Space 2

I freaking LOVED Dead Space and I can't wait till Dead Space 2.  It's looking better than the first.

6. Mass Effect 2(PS3)

This will probably be the first game I pick up in 2011.  I've heard a lot of great things about Mass Effect 2 and I have played the demo.  It's pretty good and I can't wait to play it.  Already pre-ordered it ^.^

5. InFamous 2

InFamous was such a fantastic game.  I loved every aspect of it.  And Sucker Punch left me wanting for more after that epic ending in InFamous 1.

4. Ico/SotC Collection

I didn't get to play the PS2 versions! Go ahead burn me!  But seriously, these games get praised a lot.  I've heard nothing but wonderful things about them and I can't wait to try them out.  Trophies!!!

3.  Little Big Planet 2

Fans will spend A LOT of time re-creating some of their favorite game's with the many tools LBP2 offers you.  LBP is loads of fun especially with friends.  I can't wait to buy it.

2.  Killzone 3

Killzone 2 was my runner-up GOTY in 2009.  Amazing graphics, great story, great gameplay, fun online and lots of other things.  Killzone 3 will be sucking up A LOT of my time in 2011.  Just like Killzone 2 did in 2009.  

1.  Uncharted 3

Uncharted 2 was my 2009 GOTY.  Peace Walker in 2010.  And I see Uncharted taking back the title in 2011.  The people over at ND are one of the best if not THE BEST developers out there.  I'm 100% sure U3 will be a masterpiece, just like U2.

Around the Network

Hmm, that's a hard one since I don't exactly remember what all is coming out in 2011, but I'll try (in no particular order):

  • Star Wars Kinect - Everyone should be excited about this game.  Always.
  • Mass Effect 3 - One of the best new franchises this generation, just all around excellent games.
  • Uncharted 3 - The other best new franchise this generation, also all around excellent.
  • DC Universe Online - Played the beta and had a blast. 
  • Bulletstorm - Looks like over-the-top silly fun and it's the type of game that Epic does so well so why not?
  • Portal 2 - Portal was great, I'm willing to give this one the benefit of the doubt.
  • Rage - I'll be honost, I only put this one on to make the list an even 10.  I'm interested in it, but it's not a must buy yet.
  • Batman: Arkham City - Even though I still haven't finished the first game, this game nailed the Batman experience perfectly.
  • Gears of War 3 - see Bulletstorm except I already know I like this franchise and it's actually made by Epic.
  • Duke Nukem Forever - I know some ex 3D Realms people and the game is actually supposed to be quite good.


10. Resistance 3

The Past iterations were nothing huge to me, But it will still good. Plus, I am really looking forward to playing in the Apocalypse.  

9. LittleBigPlanet2

I am not really one for 2d plat-formers, but the created content is just to much fun to pass up. 

8. Twisted Metal

Looks really sweet from the videos.

7. Mass Effect 2

Demo was pretty damn cool.

6. Marvel Vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds

If they balance the characters out. I'm in.

5. Uncharted 3

It's uncharted.

4. Assassins Creed?

I cannot wait for the next iteration of AC. Brotherhood was just really awesome.

3. Batman: Arkham City

Loved the first one.

 

2. Killzone 3

Love the second one. Cannot wait to turn invisible as the sniper class xD.

 

1. Infamous 2

The hype just doesn't get any bigger. I have beaten the first one 6 times. And i still want to play it more.

 



I think I did this last week, but... not counting the literal mountain of 3DS stuff I'm frothing for...

 

10. Lost in Shadow (Wii) an innovative physics based platformer with a drop dead gorgeous artstyle from the team who did the eternally underrated Kororinpa?   Sign me up!

09. Inazuma Eleven (DS) FINALLY!  Animu RTS Soccer RPGing will be mine soon!

08. El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron (360) Another real looker, probably the prettiest game I've ever seen.  Combat and platforming look pretty meh so far, but the team is ex-Capcom so it's still got my attention.

07. Catherine (360) I've always had a respect for Persona, and a genuine interest in the content, but never really been able to get into it.  This nightmarish adventure game however seems almost tailor-made for my tastes, can't wait.

06. The Last Story (Wii) Stunning from everything I've seen.  This looks like the cure for the common JRPG.

05. La-Mulana (Wii) SO HYPED!  It's almost done!

04. Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation (DS) This is essentially my comfort food.  In Horii we trust. <3

03. Child of Eden (360) Gesture based REZ 2?  So there!

02. Okamiden (DS) Cute sequel to the best Zelda clone ever.  Reminds me of PH/ST, but good.

01. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (Wii) It's Zelda... I mean c'mon.  These are the sorts of games you play games for.  I'm ready...



I bought a ton of games this year, so 2011 will likely be light for me.

8. Monday night combat PC

7. Red Dead Redemption PC

6. The Grinder....maybe potentially hopefully

5. Brink

4. Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword

3. 3DS in general. I haven't been a portable gamer in quite some time, but that may soon change.
