    Default Q1 2008 Games Anticipation

    I kind of brought this up in the Smash Bros thread, but figured I'd make a new topic. I'm wondering what everyone else is looking forward to picking up in the first 3 months of the year.

    Here's my list of 'Get' games:

    Advance Wars: Days of Ruin [DS, Jan 21]
    Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney [DS, Feb 12] (you can play a web demo now) As an Ace Attorney 'vet', I finished it pretty quick, skipping the Cross-Examination tutorial and easily finding where to present the evidence. Mock trial, that was clever.
    Professor Layton & The Curious Village [DS, Feb 10] (also a playable web demo, though in Japanese. Will give instructions at bottom of post)
    Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword [DS, March 25]
    Burnout Paradise [PS360, Jan 22]
    Devil May Cry 4 [PS360, Feb 5]
    Patapon [PSP, Feb 28]
    Smash Bros Brawl [Wii, March 9?]
    Okami [Wii, March 25]

    My short list of 'Maybe Get' games:
    Culdcept Saga
    Turok
    Lost Odyssey
    Winning Eleven/Pro Evo
    Dragon Quest Swords

    For Professor Layton Japanese Demo instruction (click click click till you get to the puzzle):

    "...but this feat can be accomplished in as little as 11 moves."

    Speaking of Brawl, why's it not there? :P That's still March!

    Anyway, you pretty much covered it for me.
    -Advance Wars: Days of Ruin
    -Burnout Paradise
    -GTAIV????

    I want to play the Phoenix Wright/Ace Attorney games in order, and seeing as how I just bought the first one a couple weeks ago and don't have the second one yet, I'll hold off on the new one.

    FFXIV Character

    Ekhi Ysengrim (Brynhildr)

    Apollo Justice, even if Apollo is half as awesome as Nick this game's gonna rock.

    Advanced Wars, I haven't played any before, but that looks like it'll be fun.

    If I had the system: Devil May Cry 4. I fell the same way I do about Apollo. If Nero is even as half as awesome as Dante, that game'll rock.

    For some reason I had the idea that its going to be released after March but you corrected me. Im definately getting Crisis Core. Still a hardcore FF fanboy deep down.

    I'm for DMC4 and Lost Odyssey the most. I only have enough pebbles to buy one for a while. I'll probably get Lost Odyssey if Gamespot gives it a 6, since that seems to indicate I'll like it.

    Smash Bros., Apollo Justice, and maybe Professor Layton. (The flash demo of Apollo Justice is pretty cool.)

    Saying I want Smash Brothers is like telling me the earth is round. It's a foregone conclusion. (And I simply forgot to mention it :P)

    Crisis Core hasn't really snagged my interest. I didn't even really check to see what was on PSP's release list, but now that I have checked Patapon is on my 'Get' list.

    Spoiler for secretsJKTrix is not a Final Fantasy fan.

    Smash Bros. Brawl is the only Q1 Release I'm really looking forward to currently. Only an allowance, so I can't go making huge lists of games, and most of the games I get are ones that have been out for a while anyway. Other than Brawl, though, FF7: Crisis Core looks to be good.

    Apparently the game is a mystery where most of the gameplay is different kinds of puzzles. It seems interesting. I might wait until the whole trilogy is confirmed for North American release before I pick it up, though. I don't want to end up with the first part of the trilogy and being forced to skip the rest. xP
