What games are you buying/looking forward to?

[Jason]

Hey,

So we already have a thread to talk about what games we're playing, but since 2011 seems to be jammed with tons of games coming out, I thought it'd be cool to talk about which games we'll be buying, what we're looking forward to etc...

For me, well, just for Febuary, I'm planning on buying Marvel vs Capcom 3, which is out tomorrow so I'l going to pick it up when I go into town, and then next Friday I'll be buying Killzone 3 and Two Worlds 2. See though, there's a problem now, Trinity: Souls of Zill O'll was released on the 11th, and I played the demo and thought it was pretty cool, I was looking forward to it anyway but it completely left my attention when more games were being released, so I don't know if I should buy it instead of one of the games mentioned above, or just wait for it to go down in price...

Actually, here's a pretty good video review of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UY8sJPpv ... r_embedded

I wasn't expecting it to be as long or have as much content as that guy says, I was like "Oh, Action RPG, it'll be like 10-20 hours and be linear", but apparently it's the opposite, lol.

As for games I'm looking forward to, the next one coming up that's got me excited is the new Mortal Kombat, I'm glad to see that they're doing everything right this time, they've lost the z axis in fighting (It's a pretty cheap system anyway, just tap up or down to sidestep a big attack...), added back the blood and gore, the fatalities look amazing, same goes for the character design to be honest, and the addition of tag team fighting (Yeah other games have done it, so what) will make online more fun too.

So...

- What game(s) are you buying next?
- What game(s) are you looking forward to?

im really looking forward to uncharted 3, mass effect 3, skyrim, and killzone 3

 

[StrawberrySmiles]

I guess the only one I'm looking forward to, is Skyrim. I thought there were others, but they escape my mind. I mean, the chances of me making a smexy female character is actually great now! And I enjoy character creation systems a lot.

 

[Fusty]

Mass Effect 3, Skyrim, Dragon Age 2 and Skyward Sword.

First up is DA 2, I've already pre-ordered it and I cant wait to finnaly play it !! !
There's probably more but this is all I can think of atm.

~Edit

Oh and this upcoming game called Brink, an FPS which is starting to look pretty cool.

 

[candle]

i forgot about skyward sweord. im interested in dragon ahe 2, as well, but i haven't finished the first one yet.

 

[Mega Flare]

Killzone 3, MotorStorm, Infamous 2, Resistance 3, Pokemon, Uncharted 3, legend of heroes... thers a ton more but those are theonly ones il 100% buy on day one

 

[candle]

again, i forgot infamous 2

 

[Necrile]

Killzone 3 is the next game on my list to buy. After playing the multiplayer and singleplayer demos, I'm pretty sure it'll live up to the hype and create a new major competitor in the fps market.

man

diablo 3,
portal 2

and mirror's edge 2

but yesterday i was informed that mirror's edge 2 was cancelled

I can imagine the pitch now

Dice: "Here is ME2 with all the stupid copter chases removed, shooty bits are gone. And there are loads more time trials, things to jump on and tricks to do"

EA driving and shooting: "Ummm. There is no multi-player?"

Dice: "The game is about getting better yourself and beating other peoples times, multiplayer wouldnt work in this context"

EA driving and shooting:"okaaay, so um how about we give them guns in multi-player, our core demographic like FPS with guns, COD proves that"

dice: "umm i don't think you are getting the game"

EA driving and shooting:"I also think Faith needs bigger breasts, our core demographic like big breasts"

dice: *bangs head on table*

EA driving and shooting:"If there's no guns, we also need to make it more appealing to girls and children. How about faith has a wise cracking animal side kick called 'zippy'? "

dice:"FINE we will make another Battlefield"

EA driving and shooting:"good choice"

Tales of Graces and of course Final Fantasy XIII versus or whatever name they changed it to. They did change right?

 

[Jason]

Final Fantasy Versus XIII, they didn't change it, it's still the same. They DID however rename Final Fantasy Agito XIII to Final Fantasy Type-0, lol.

 

[Aepriz]

I'm interested in a lot, but these I'll buy for sure

(There not all from 2011 though)

- Pokemon White
- Final Fantasy XIII-2
- Mass effect 3
- Elder Scroll: Skyrim
- Bioshock: Infinite (I'm most enjoyed for this game)
- Final Fantasy versus 13
- Uncharted 3: Drakes deception

 

[Necrile]

@Tomas: ME2 would kick ass. fuck EA and their goddam stupid shooters

 

[Guest]

;D

Resistance 3 DOES look good from that video they released, glad the weapon wheel is back, and love how they upgrade in a Ratchet fashion.

Is anyone else as excited as me for Disgaea 4 and (hopefully) White Knight Chronicles 2 later this year?

 

[StrawberrySmiles]

I would be excited for Disgaea 4 - if I can play the 3rd one without blinding myself because of a horrible cheap TV.

Does your Monitor/Laptop have a HDMI slot? If so just plug your PS3 straight into it, I've noticed that using my monitor has made some games so much easier to play since things look better and text, even though it's on a smaller screen, can be easier to read (22" monitor as opposed to a 42" HDTV).

 

[StrawberrySmiles]

I'm technically impaired, so what does it look like and where would it most likely be? If mine doesn't have it, then Star's probably does.

 

[Jason]

This is a HDMI slot and it should be on the side of your laptop if you're using one, or if you're using a computer monitor, it'll be beside the DVI slot (Monitor cable)
