BY THE BEARD OF ZEUS... September-October has WAY too many games comin'!!

Archive: 25 posts


Armored Core: For Answer
Silent Hill Homecoming
MotorStorm: Pacific Rift
Dead Space
Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm
Rock Band 2
BioShock
Little Big Planet
Guitar Hero World Tour
Fallout 3
Pure
Fable II
Far Cry 2
Rise of the Argonauts
Wario Land: Shake It!

And a few others...

No, I don't expect everyone to be getting all of these games, but you have to admit, these two months will be bringing quite a few good ones (we can hope, lol). Gonna be hard saving up money for most of those. Main priority is LBP, though!

It would be nice if publishers would learn to spread their big games throughout the year a bit more.2008-09-14 23:45:00

LBP, Far Cry 2 and Bioshock for sure ... then a wait for Resident Evil 5 and Killzone 2. We need another fun platformer - aside from LBP this is a dark chapter in gaming!2008-09-15 14:38:00

Rock Band, LBP, and Fallout 3 are definate buys(I already have Rock Band ). I'm also looking into getting Midnight Club but I'm going to wait for reviews on that. It looks pretty crazy though.2008-09-15 17:45:00

Everybody wants to aim for the holiday season... Christmas = wallet-leeching time for the industry.
They do it worse than women. >_<

Me and my sexist jokes... '>_>

On a slightly related note... it's a good thing that my wallet has been going through a drought lately...
I haven't spent on anything since MGS4 came out way back when...

Time to let the leeches in...

Oh yea, that's for sure! I'm most excited about (other than LBP of course) Pure and Wipeout HD. Main reason: other than being fun looking games in terms of gameplay especially, they offer Splitscreen!! Oh how I have missed that! I played some good old Burnout Revenge last night with a friend of mine. As much fun as that game is, I'm ready for the new-gen splitscreen experience! Although I'm suddenly wishing I had a slightly bigger TV lol, but that's just because I'm used to it now. To think that I used to play PS2 splitscreen on something like a 19 or 20 inch standard display, and now I'm complaining about 37 inch LCD :o for shame!

Yeah here's the list of games I want (I included November):

DEFINITE buys:
29 Oct 08 - LittleBigPlanet
31 Oct 08 - Fallout 3
18 Nov 08 - Prince of Persia

PROBABLE (hopeful ) buys:
16 Sep 08 - Pure
20 Oct 08 - Dead Space
29 Oct 08 - Spider-Man: Web of Shadows

MAYBE (probably not ) buys:
Released! - Disgaea 3

16 Sep 08 - Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
14 Oct 08 - Rise of the Argonauts
21 Oct 08 - Bioshock
- Eternal Sonata
- Far Cry 2
04 Nov 08 - Lord of the Rings: Conquest
11 Nov 08 - Mirror's Edge
- Valkyria Chronicles

As you can see there're 3 games I will definitely be getting before or for Christmas. The hopeful buys keep changing I'll probably end up with Dead Space, Spider-man and Valkyria Chronicles if I can afford any at all. I feel kinda sad and annoyed that I won't be able to buy all these games .

Actually, looking over this past year...

This has been a HUGE year for gaming. Seriously, look at all the games that have come out, or will come out, just in 2008! Tons and tons of tons. And it's just getting bigger all the time. And for the big games that aren't coming out 2008, they're coming out Q1 2009. And so you look at the stats and see that gaming revenues have jumped up this year...and then you suddenly realize why. It's all the GAMES! Just look at how huge GTAIV was. And how big MGS4 was. Those by themselves are huge. And then you look at all the smaller, but still pretty dang large in their own right, games, and man, that's why.

And yes, the next couple months are gong to have an overload. I don't think it's actually the companies expecting everyone to get the games as they come out. I think they're pushing them out there so they can be there for all the early Christmas shoppers, and make sure the games have lots of solid reviews and stats, etc, before the Christmas wave hits and everyone's buying.

But yeah, still a ton. I'll be getting LBP, obviously. Not sure about the rest, but really probably not. But who knows, may take my PS2 to GameSpot and get a game out of it. All depends on the reviews.
