    These are the games, I'll most likely be buying in 2009 unless they get some dire reviews. Although I'm sure some will slip into 2010. I don't have an Xbox 360 and I can't think of anything I want on the Wii nor am I clued on JRPG's. So I'm sure others will have some I never heard of. Since I'm primarily a PC gamer most games I'll be getting are on that platform but the majority of these are multiplatform titles.

    PC
    Alan Wake
    Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War II
    Empire Total War
    Dragon Age Origins
    Mass Effect 2
    Armed Assault 2
    Operation Flashpoint 2 Dragon Rising
    Deus Ex 3
    Street Fighter 4
    Black Mesa Source
    Mafia II
    Rage
    Wolfenstein
    Call of Duty 6
    Battlefield Heroes
    Quake Live
    Fear 2: Project Origin

    PS3
    Resident Evil 5
    Uncharted: Among Thieves
    God of War III

    Undecided on
    Final Fantasy XIII (PS3)
    Killzone 2 (PS3)
    Heavy Rain (PS3)
    Starcraft 2 (PC)
    Demigod (PC)
    Diablo 3 (PC)

    Black Mesa Source looks amazing, I watched the new trailer the other day and it looks so good it's scary.

    Killzone 2 - I'm thinking this game will convince me an FPS console exclusive can be awesome.
    Tekken 6.
    Final Fantasy XIII.
    White Knight Chronicles.
    Resident Evil 5.
    Street Fighter IV.

    PSP:
    Dissidia - Final Fantasy.
    Patapon 2.
    Phantasy Star Portable.
    Resistance Retribution.
    Monster Hunter Freedom Unite.
    Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep.
    (Also looking forward to Ushiro and Cardboard War Machine by Level-5).

    Pokemon Platinum.
    Gyakuten Kenji (Miles Edgeworth Ace Attorney?).
    Peggle DS.
    Puzzle Quest Galactrix.
    Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.

    Undecided:

    Resi 5 and Street Fighter IV.

    Also White Knight Chronicles and anything else by level 5


  • Moderators Posts: 5,558 ✭✭✭Azza


    I did not know Street Fighter 5 was coming out GothPunk :rolleyes:
    Capcom must thinks its on to a winner!:D

    Yeah and for anyone who has not seen the new Black Mesa Source trailer here it is and its indeed very impressive.
    http://www.gametrailers.com/player/43237.html?type=

    As a free game I don't think anyone with a gaming PC has an excuse to miss this.

    As for Killzone its looks very impressive and good word of mouth came from the mutiplayer beta but the first game was average at best (the PSP game was good) so I will wait till the reviews before making my mind up on it.

    Forgot 'The Another World' on DS. It's by Level-5 and Studio Ghibli, looks interesting.

    *Watches Black Mesa Source trailer again* Just.....godlike.

    Actually, UFC as well

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,857 ✭✭✭Valmont


    Every game I've played since the original Mafia (except bioshock) has just served to temporarily fill the void it left when I played it to complete and utter death. If Mafia II has a decent storyline like Mafia (which was a veritable movie) it'll be great.

    I think we can surrender to bioshock II being **** as a different company is making it and there's no way the story could match the first one.

    Despite how much I really don't want to give Blizzard another cent, it's gotta be Starcraft 2.

    The main reason i bought a ps3 to begin with!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,466 ✭✭✭Niska


    Lets see...

    PC

    Total War: Empire
    Starcraft II
    Dawn of War 2
    Hearts of Iron III
    Eleven legacy (fantasy strategy game from the publishers of Europa Universalis and Hearts of Iron. Could be great, could be dog poo. But one I'm thinking about...)
    Deus Ex 3
    Dragon Age origins
    Baldur's Gate 3 (I can dream. Plus Atari have hinted at ti: http://www.gamespot.com/news/6201815.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=topstory&tag=topstory;title)
    Operation Flashpoint 2 : Dragon rising
    Mass Effect 2

    PS3
    Killzone 2. (Multiplayer Beta has made me stop grumbling about playing an FPS without keyboard/mouse. Simply amazing, and that's just 3 maps.)
    Fat Princess (if it's not out by the end of the year0
    God of War III
    Uncharted : Among Thieves
    Infamous
    Twisted Metal PS3 (hopefully)
    Heavy Rain
    Assassins Creed 2 (again, hopefully)

    Probably some I missed, and some above may be turn out to be a bit crap.

    I sure hope not. Damn consoles dumbing down PC greats is what messed up the 2nd one.

    I'm looking forward to:

    Mainly SF4

    other then that, I dunno, that KOTOR mmo , if its out in 09 that is.

    I've given up on STO.

    Alan wake but as people have said, I was impressed when I 1st saw the trailers, but thats too long ago now.

    Mass Effect 2 if that really is coming to PC in 09. Currently playing the 1st one. Really like it, but Kotor 1 was probably better. (Had more conversations with your teammates etc)

    ArmA 2 if it isnt a buggy mess.

    A mate has been telling me about Total War: Empire, I've never played any of those games so I dunno if I'll like it but the trailers he's shown me, it seems pretty good!
