Forums - Gaming - 2009 is one of the worst years in gaming in recent years.

gtcarro on 18 August 2009

If you own a Wii is a good year (mantains the good performance).

If you own a PS3 is a excellent year (better every year).

If you own a xbox360 is a really bad year (like last year).

 



Uncharted & The Last of Us 

(Definitely, best games of last Gen)

Correction : If you own a 360 and a PS3, it is not that bad.

So for PS3/PSP and 360 owners the year has been "not bad"

I am a Wii only owner nd have bought more games this year than I ever have, the only thing missing from this year has been a big-name game, but that has now changed with WSR, and NSMB.Wii is later too (though I am only planning on buying WSR) Oh, and MH3 but that is only big-name in Japan.

Really? What games have you bought? I've only bought House of the Dead Overkill and Conduit so far for Wii this year. I have to admit, I've been a bit lax in following the latest Wii releases.

Well in truth many have been games that were released before 2009.... but there are a number of games release in 2009 I will almost certainly be buying eventually too (I am skint, I buy very few games close to release)

This year I bought:
Okami
Deadly Creatures (2009 release)
Geometry Wars:Galaxies
Sim City Creator
Tiger Woods '10 (2009)
The Conduit (2009)

And downloadable:
LoZ:Majora's Mask (discountable as it's VC I suppose)
Dr.Mario
World of Goo
Art Style: Orbient
Bomberman Blast
Swords & Soldiers (2009 release)

-----

So so far only 4 that were actually released in 2009.... but of 2009s releases so far I will certainly be getting these:
Wii Sports Resort
Little Kings Story
Pikmin 2
Grand Slam Tennis/Virtua Tennis (still haven't decided but it is leaning towrards Grand Slam)

And likely:
Blast Works
Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars

Possible:
Madworld
(may be some others I have forgotten)
----

And future 2009 releases that I can think of, F1 2009 is a certain buy, as is Metroid Prime Trilogy... Red Steel 2 was a likely, but now it has moved to 2010...While NSMB is a possible. Then Wiiware may add some more too, but I can't be certain of course.

So when all is said and done, at least 10 games that released in 2009 will be bought by me, possibly 14. And if I had more disposable income then that would increase wuite a bit.... I think I should perhaps start selling games back once I have played them, but I like to keep most of my games.

Thanks for the list. Metroid Prime trilogy is a definite buy for me as I didn't have a GC. Will likely buy Wii sports resort at some point in the future and Tiger Woods. Not sure if I'm going to buy F1 on Wii or PS3, I'll see when they're released and decide then. Is Sim City Creator actually any good?

Who are you to say that ?



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

2009 is just shit in general

I'm screwed this year. I get home in December and have only one month to fit in all my 2009 purchases before coming back for another year...

Here's hoping there's plenty of used games at the pawn shop!



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.

Street Fighter IV
Killzone 2
Halo Wars

Forza Motorsport 3
Magna Carta II
Shadow Complex
Halo 3 : ODST
Assassins Creed 2

A another great year with my xbox 360. Im going to buy Ps3 slim/80gb this year again, so its a good and expansive gaming year. 2010 most likely even better.
