Forums - Gaming - What are you looking forward to in 2012?

I am looking forward to the Vita as it is going to be my new main console (Standby mode is AWESOME!!!). :D

Vita games both multiplatform and exclusive (mostly RPGs, Action Games, Strategy Games, Puzzle Games, and a good Fighter/Racing Game or 2). Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun! :D

And I suppose Torchlight 2 for PC will be fun. :)

Also, is Planetside 2 coming out next year? I don't like shooters, but that is one game that just looks too good not to try.



Around the Network

StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm
Diablo 3
Half-Life 3



For games, The Last Story and Pandora's Tower.

For movies, the new Godzilla reboot, assuming it makes its tentative 2012 launch window.



Non-entertainment:
1) Graduation: All of my hard work will finally pay off.
2) College: The beginning of the rest of my life, plus only study what I want to study.
3) December 22, 2012: Put an end to this end-of-the-world nonsense.

Entertainment:
1) The Dark Knight Rises: LOVED The Dark Knight, and Batman is my favorite superhero because he goes beyond simple superpowers and has deeper meaning.
2) Paper Mario 3DS: Finally back to its roots after the disappointing Super Paper Mario..
3) Animal Crossing 3DS: Very little changes, but it's still a darn fun game.
4) Rebecca Black: Can't wait for a full CD and for her to mature and make it big.

Now this one I didn't even know about, that's awesome.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

it's a growing list actually


WiiU - for me is the main 2012 thing, probably DQX

Wii - The Last Story, Pandora's Tower
HD consoles - Bioshock Infinite, Soul Calibur 5, Tales of Graces and probably some more
3DS - Luigi's Mansion, RE Revelations, Animal Crossing, Kid Icarus, Tekken, Rune Factory 4, MH3G, MGS, Paper Mario

not 100% convinced yet about getting PSV, may happen 2012

for movies, definitely Titanic 3D, SW Fantom Menace 3D, Dark Knight Rises, probably more, when does The Hobbit come out?

music, really don't know, so many artists release albums at the same time, Rihanna releases album every year, so this is unpredictable, will listen to Madonna's new album



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

First of all, some of you might think this thread resembles Simulacrum’s eloquently named thread “So...Whats up for 2012?”, well, you’re WRONG! My thread is plenty different and here’s why.

While I know most of you have a whole shopping list of games, music and movies you’re looking forward to in 2012, I’m so not interested in having you list them all! Okay, maybe I should rephrase that: What I’m interested in is WHY you’re looking forward to these items on your list so I’d rather you list only a few items per category with a paragraph to explain what makes you await their release with eagerness.

Four sentences of the OP. It's not much to ask, people.

Games:

  • World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria (Shut up)

I think I'm capable of blanking out the Pandas running around Orgrimmar if Blizzard keeps its word and actually pulls off an expansion that's more focused on the Alliance/Horde conflict, instead of ending up like the Sue-ridden hippie-fest that was.

Movies:

  • The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

I'm going to go and risk all my credibility (before I even have any) by saying that I've always preferred The Hobbit to The Lord of the Ring books. I don't really know why. Maybe it's The Hobbit's faster pace, the smaller amount of attention paid to irrelevant details, or the fact that The Lord of the Rings revolves mostly around humans, whom I just can't bring myself to be interested in. (Unlike dragons, dwarves, and big hairy men that can transform into massive black bears)

But despite not liking the books, I like the LotR movies. I really like the LotR movies. And this time around, I actually like the source material as well.

I've got a feeling I'm going to like this movie.

  • The Dark Knight Rises

Yeah, right, like I need to explain myself for this.

Books: (Again, shut up)

  • Whatever K.J. Taylor's writing

Probably the only author I care about at all nowadays.



I'm really looking forward to the Vita. Gravity Daze and Persona 4 Golden are 2 games on it that I can't wait to play.

On my 360, looking forward to playing Persona UMA (Arc System Works + Atlus = Dream game). Maybe if I am lucky, Persona 5 as well. I'm just praying to God that someone actually releases these games in EU.

On the 3DS, the next pokemon game lol.



 

Bioshock infinite, Street fighter cross tekken, mass effect 3.......hm........


....I know this one...
