    All going to be release between late sept and early Nov. I'm sitting here struggling for games to play and then I'll be inundated come Autumn.

    Don't know about anyone else but I'll be wanting a piece of all of the above.

    Oh Yes.

    Mirror's Edge is really interesting looking. Gears 2 looks unreal, the E3 demo was amazing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,174 ✭✭✭✭Captain Chaos


    Stick Far Cry 2 in there too, or is that 2009 can't remember.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,693 ✭✭✭Jack Sheehan


    Stick far cry 2 in and take splinter cell conviction and Mirrors edge out. There's no definite release date for them. Also Mercs 2 is coming out late August early September.

    Yes, it's a big season for the 360, unfortunately I won't have much time to play them...


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo


    I'll be making time. Besides the weather should get increasingly worse (darker) around then so an excuse to stay in and play games will be forthcoming.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,905 ✭✭✭bucks73


    Gears2 has a worldwide release of November 7th.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,828 ✭✭✭unklerosco


    Thought so... Will be taking a few days off around then to do some "studying" ;-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,728 ✭✭✭dazftw

    It's set to be another expensive winter! I'll probably still be playing Soul Calibur IV and Lego Batman, maybe I'll hold off until Christmas. Things could change when I see them on the shelves

    I did say late sept to early nov in my post. Just generalised with october. :D

    I was travelling up until last march so never picked up an Xbox controller til then (first thing I bought when I came home). With all these videos of Gears 2 around I went and bought Gears 1. I'm just making my way through the drilling/mining factory with all the scampery little bad guys climbing the walls and ****. Have to say, it's excellent.

    Dying for Gears 2 now even though I'm not even halfway through the first one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,225 ✭✭✭Ciaran500


    CoD WaW is going to be average and Splinter Cell has been delayed till next year.

  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo


    Dead Space looks savage alright. Like a cross between the the movie event horizon and a good Doom 3.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,393 ✭✭✭Fingleberries


    Is the Force Unleashed out in October, or is it September?


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo

    Mid september. Around the 17th I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,070 ✭✭✭Placebo


    those are BLEHHHHHHHHHHH

    how about sf4
    and the new capcom vs game aswell
    sf hd remix


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,742 ✭✭✭Branoic


    I want to like Dead Space and I'm really trying to, as there seems to be a bit of a buzz about it, but I just can't! I hate the character's helmet design - just think it's retarded and can't get past it. How are you meant to connect to a character wearing a lit-up bucket?


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo


    I think it makes him look like boba fett in Star wars a bit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,416 ✭✭✭FreeOSCAR


    And Boba Fett is deadly, brilliant the way there is no HUD. "Strategic Dismemberment" FTW!

    Splinter Cell: Conviction

    I thought that was pushed back (again!) 'til Q1 2009?
    (Not that i wouldn't like to see it earlier)


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo


    Aye, I did some more reading and it has been pushed back. Kind of rushed the initial post.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 484 ✭✭brennaldo


    does anyone know when the new madden is coming out


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 735 ✭✭✭Keggers


    EndWar anyone?


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo

    Some of us like other types of games other than fighting ones! :P

    Splinter Cell: Conviction has beeen pushed back till next year.

    Autumn is always big for games. I'm still trying to finish some of the ones I picked up last year! I suppose I should be grateful my Xbox is broken now and not in time for when Gears of War II comes out.

    Realistically, there will be a few disappointments in that bunch - Call of Duty:World at War, I'm loooking at you!

    The Force Unleashed looks promising but I bet it will be decidedly average.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo


    I have to say - I'm just playing through Gears 1 and every level I do makes me more excited about Gear 2. I was late to the gears scene and I'm actually glad I'm playing it now because I'll not have to wait long to get my teeth into another one.

    Hold your horses there billy, you're not on the moon yet. TFU on the Wii might not use the Wii motion plus so it might not be 1:1 lightsabre action, which I think was everyones first thought when they saw the Wii.
