Forums - Gaming - A quick look at the next few weeks in games (for me)

AKA Not enough money and not nearly enough time.

I was looking at the release dates for some games of which I'm definitely interested.  Not games that I'm just keeping an eye on, but ones that I'll probably get.  Sheesh, wth is up with these packed release dates?  Give me some time to finish a game!

8/21   BioShock  (PC)
8/28   Warhawk (PS3)
8/28   Metroid Prime 3 (wii)
9/4     Lair (PS3)
9/12   Dirt (PS3)
9/12   Heavenly Sword (PS3)
9/24   Skate (PS3)
10/2   Enemy Territory: Quake Wars (PC)
10/9   Half Life 2: Episode 2 aka Orange Box (PC)
10/16 Zak and Wiki (wii)
10/23 Rachet and Clank:TOD (PS3)
11/12 Unreal Tournament 3 (PC)
11/12 Super Mario Galaxy (wii)

What games shall I postpone?  I'm gonna have a lot of half-finished games laying around, methinks.

 

P.S. 

And if you think that's bad, look at this!  For 11/12 on the wii (from ign).

Must add Orange Box to the list!

 

Edit: nm i am blind

Must add Call of Duty 4 to the list!

 

On a more serious note, it is impossible to tell which games you are looking forward to the most so my advice would be to just look at each title independantly and assign a score out of 100 points for each game. Then look at the list and cut the low ones.

holy crap for 2 days that's a lot of releases for the Wii.

I hope they don't all drown each other out.



Help! I'm stuck in a forum signature!

 I think SMG will drown out the rest all by itself =P

Well, just judging from the previous COD titles, it's not on my "must have" list....yet. I'm probably going to get the games that are on-line immediately and save the single player stuff for later. So, the games that I'm most looking forward to are, HL2:EP2 (tf2 looks AWESOME), UT3 and Warhawk. But dammit, there are some amazing titles in there that I'm gonna have to play. I agree that SMG will kill all of those other games on the wii that day, but there are 6 other games coming out that day that I'm watching closely. Seriously, wth?

Those dates can't be right can they? How can so many games be coming out in the same 2 day period!?



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

hum good list except dirt which might be the shitiest racing game I've ever seen with good graphics.... the car drives like in alice in wonder land.... the braking system is totaly BS.... the 3 best simulations of all time it's GTR 2 on PC ForzaMotorSport 2 and GT



and to think thats only for ps3 and wii, include xbox and this is the best gaming holiday season ever, so danm excited, tuesday cant come soon enough for bioshock!



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

Well, I'm d/l'ing the DIRT demo at this very moment, so we'll see! Maybe they made some changes to it from the 360 version. I liked the Colin McRae Rally series in the past, so here's to hoping. @Lost - There's exactly one game on the 360 that I really want to have (Forza). Other than that, all of the games are fps', which I refuse to play without a mouse or wiimote. They are therefore listed as pc games. But feel free to enlighten me! Or better yet, add your list on here.
