Happy new year everyone!

I definitely won't buy another console this year, but maybe a cheap laptop for those many, many great PC games I missed during the past 9 years of abstinence.

Games like Warcraft 3, Rome: Total War, Anno 1701, Freelancer, The Longest Journey...

I really miss PC strategy games, space sims, building sims and adventures (even though some of those genres aren't what they used to be).

I'm definitely going to buy a DSi. The only DSi specific games I know I'll get so far are the WarioWare downloadable games. As for regular DS games, I plan on getting Gyakuten Kenji (if it includes english), Chrono Trigger, Kirby Super Star Ultra, Pokemon Platinum, N+, Duke Nukem Trilogy, My Japanese Coach, Metal Slug 7, Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, DK Jungle Climber, Boulder Dash: ROCKS!, Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, Space Invaders Extreme.

I'm also thinking about getting a Saturn. I'd want to get Saturn Bomberman, two multitap and a lot of pads. I'm also interested in titles like NiGHTS, Guardian Heroes,...


As for the "HD" consoles, well, it's hard for me to want one when I don't own an HDTV (and getting a good one seems complicated and expensive) and I'm already buying more games than I have time to play.

I might impulse buy a 360 as they are getting very cheap, but I still have some concerns about the quality of the product and about having to pay for online play. I'm mostly interested in XBLA games: Double Dragon, Geometry Wars 2, Braid, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. The regular games I'd want would be Tales of Vesperia, Dead Rising (but I hear a HDTV is compulsary for this one), maybe Ninja Gaiden II and Bomberman: Act Zero (to go with my copies of Shaq Fu and Superman 64).

I'll definitely get a PS3 someday, but I don't think it will be in 2009. I'll get it when it's cheaper and in a slimer model. For it, I'd get Metal Gear Solid 4 (I'm hoping a Subsomething version will be release by the time I get a PS3), LittleBigPlanet, and maybe Ninja Gaiden Sigma and Valkyria Chronicles.

When the DSi hits Australia, I' might buy a 2nd hand DSlite (there should be heaps then)

I might buy a Wii in 2009. I will be definitely buying lots of games on XBox 360 in 2009.

I'd be getting a DSi or DSL in order to get fire emblem shadow empire.

No console, but left 4 dead and halo wars are on my hit list

Good Number of PS3 games. Slim chance of getting a Wii

Halo Wars, Resident Evil 5 and Fear 2 (maybe Fable 2 and Fallout 3).

I'm still looking for a Blue-Ray reader with a reasonable price and quality and if Killzone 2 is really the new FPS genre (confirmed facts (!!!), not blinded Sony Zealots propaganda sh*t), I'll get a PS3 for it.

For the moment, I'm still in love with Left4dead, GOW2 and Mirror's Edge...

im probably going to buy a wii, 2009 looks like a good year for it.

Already owning all consoles & ordered today:

Dusk Hotel: Room 215
Star Fox Command
Yakuza

And for the 'rest' of the year countless DS, PS2, Wii and a few PSP, PS3 and Xbox 360 games like Crisis Core, Gears of War 2, FF XIII, Yakuza 3(?) etc.
