Nobody gets any Christmas presents this year!

For the 360, at least, the next few months are orgasmic in gaming terms. There's about 4 games per month that I instantly want, but obviously would have to become a hooker or something to afford (win-win).

List of OMG 2008 games I need on the 360:
September:
Mercenaries 2
Mirror's Edge
Just Cause 2 - poops and giggles :D
And a few more "ifs", like Chronicles of Riddick. I loved the first Riddick game, so if this one delivers like the first - YUM!

October: - My birthday. So, if anyone wants to buy any of these for me....;)
Dead Space
Fable 2 *spurt*
Fallout 3
LEGO Batman

Novemeber:
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts
CoD: World at War - even though CoD games have been going down since 2....
Bionic Commando
GoW2

December:
Prince of Persia

There's plenty of games I've forgotten to mention too. xD

So, whatever console you use, tell us what games you're really looking forward to in the next few months.

Just Dragon Quest IV, really. Maybe Fallout 3, if by some miracle it actually turns out to be good.

Bull plop. COD4 was an incredible bit of gaming. World at War may be good, though I'll probably avoid it since it isn't developed by Infinity Ward (as 1,2 and 4 were).

Wipeout HD
Valkyrie Chronicles
Yakuza 2
littlebigplanet
Mirrors Edge
Street Fighter II HD Remix
Silent Hill Homecoming

These are the games I'm definitely getting. Dead Space is a possibility and so is Fallout 3 but I probably won't have enough money to buy every game I want anyway.

Chrono Trigger
Dragon Quest IV

Hmm. All rereleases....

New games suck, by the way.

DS: FFIV. That's about it.

Still not seen any news of a PAL release for Chrono Trigger... in fact I bet it won't even happen.

All I have brainpower for these days is Silent Hill: Homecoming. All other games are unwanted red-heads to me.

Outside of recent releases like FFIV DS and FFTA2 the only game I'm seriously looking forward to is Persona 4 in December. :cool:

Though I might pick up Disgaea and Rhapsody for the DS if I come upon some extra cash around the time of their release dates but overall I need to work on picking up all the titles I've missed.

Man, half these games I didn't even know were about to come out. Damn TBA release dates changing to something extremely close :[

I'm looking at:

Infinite Undiscovery
Golden Axe
The Force Unleashed (though slightly disappointed by the demo, but not as much as I was with Too Human, which would have made the list had they justified anticipation)
Fable 2
Fallout 3
Saints Row 2
Gears of War 2
Tomb Raider: Underworld

And now apparently Mirror's Edge has a recent release approaching? And when is Silent Hill V coming? O_o for some reason I've heard nothing of this game...

And what's this Sonic Unleashed? I quit watching Sonic games a long time ago. But now I'll probably pick up Dark Brotherhood

And I still need FFIV DS... And... Chrono Trigger?
08-25-2008, 07:13 PM

wow emm:
LittleBigPlanet
Resident Evil 5 (i think?)
Resistance 2
Motorstorm Pacific Rift
Wipeout HD
Last Remnant (think its this year? its coming later to the ps3...)
Mirros Edge (maybe)
Tomb Raider

And a few more im forgetting about are all games im interested in (yeah ironic). But I cant buy all of these... :(

I could be wrong, maybe...but I doubt it...:confused:

Edit: The thing I don't get about it is, why is it lego?

Because Lego sells believe it or not. The question is, why are all the Lego games identical.

If its not broke, don't fix it :(

I might play one again if they were less boring

I find the Lego series exponentially more acceptable than the majority of the other casual-aimed stuff. Even if they are kind of lame/the same.

Actually, this I can kind of agree with. The first Star Wars thingy ruled, but there's really not much you can change after you've made one. xD
