Forums - Gaming - August Loves You, Hates Your Wallet (NA) [56k Warning]

My wallet is already sad without me even attempting to buy things with it. It must first be filled before I can empty it again. Luckily, I have friends with money.



See Ya George.

"He did not die - He passed Away"

At least following a comedians own jokes makes his death easier.

You obviously never played MH. MH to me is a big game and I cant wait for MHP2. Plus that pig is the pig you take care of.

I haven't tried Monster Hunter, this is true. Would you recommend it? What kind of game is it?



With 140 games coming to the DS before Dec. 31st... there has to be more games then that worth buying in August? Is Christmas going to be stuffed full of DS games?!?!

I'm going to pick up the following:

Mario Strikers Charged
Metroid Prime 3

Games I'm considering but need more info on:
Space Station Tycoon
Heroes of Mana

From the looks of things... the Wii has the biggest variety of games for August. It'll be interesting to see how well Boogie does.. I've got a big question mark for that title... What about you guys...?



Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.

Wii's list isn't that great in my opinion...but the other systems don't have a ton right now either. Lair, Bioshock, and Metroid are the big ones...



LEFT4DEAD411.COM
Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

First day purchase of both Mario Strikers and Metroid. Might even pick up Bioshock. GRAW2 failure on PS3 is guaranteed after Rainbow Six's abysmal sales. Warhawk and Lair look good though.



Consoles I Own: NES, SNES, N64, GC, GBA, DS, X360, Wii

Yeah, August is going to hurt. I want Mario Strikers Charged, Boogie, Madden 08 (Wii), Metroid Prime, Blue Dragon, and Bioshock. I probably end up only getting Metroid Prime and Blue Dragon since I don't want to make my wallet cry.



Space.....Station.......TYCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNN?!?!?!?!?!??!!!!?

Sounds amazing. Sad to say, that is my most hyped game for August.

Blue Dragon will completely bomb in America. Lair looks nice, but the reviews made it sound sort of antsy.

Actually not that great of a month.



 

 

And, on the 'non-game' side, isn't Picross being released soon, and Brain Age 2 releasing in August? Getting both ASAP.



Looks as though game companies are making a direct assault on summer sales.

F*CK YEAH!



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Thank you very much. GREAT POST! I would love it if you did this in other months.
