MoH2 is going to pwn, the PSP version was wicked good.

You know I'm glad SSB:B was delayed my wallet couldn't stand such rape but seriously I think I will only go for the essentials and leave the Wii for the next year when I officially retire from gaming.

The Simpson’s
Naruto: Rise of a ninja
Silent hill 0
Castlevania Dracula X chronicles
Contra 4
And portable ops +

I will leave Assassins’ creed and Kane and Lynch in the maybe list.

But FOXHOUND (the caps sound angry...), why on earth would you get duplicate copies of games? MoH and NFS PS don't need to be bought twice each!

Also, and this something I've never understood - why do people say "Well, I'll be poor/skint/leaving my wallet @ shop X" so much?

Surely you just buy one or two games and then get the others as you finish the first batch...economising and that...

Yeah, tons of great games...but I just downloaded the newest Picross DS puzzles (and all the sep-oct Mario ones)! New stuff can wait just a bit.

I beat Mario Galaxy, 120 stars, but I have to say Assassin's Creed is a LOT more addicting. Maybe not as challenging in some areas but really damn fun.

@ ShortFuse

Not everyone goes to the internet to get games that haven't been released just because 1) they're impatient, and 2) they're too cheap to even pay $50-60 per game and would rather rob all those developers' hard work.

This is one mean week of gaming seriously, why always at the end of the year? Does anybody have any insider knowledge why games aren't spread out more threw the year so I don't start running around batting people in the head for their wallets like some sort of TF2 demented scout.

Seriously Orange box, Zack and Wiki, Mario Galaxy, Halo 3, Assassin's Creed, Uncharted, the list goes on. From September to December it is a Berserker Barrage of games I would like to pick up, yet during summer the drought is just unbearable, and it has always been like this since I can remember. So my question is does anybody know why, these companies bunch their games in what seems the last quarter of the year?

Its the holidays. The gaming industry hasn't caught up to the fact that we've all grown up now and can buy our own games and don't have to wait for mom and dad to buy us stuff at Christmas. The demographic is shifting and the industry is just slow to shift with it.

But I so feel the pain. I hope some developers start busting the mold and spread out the gaming love throughout the year.

@Jake

People tend to buy more games this time of year becuase this is when their released, becuase as has been mention before, most of us are adults now and can easlily spend our money any other time of the year. As much as I'd like to attribute Bioshock's success to it's quality, I think it sold really well partly becuase adult gamers wanted a new games so badly at that time of year. I think the Darkness also benifitted from the time of year.

imma pull the "wait and see" on assassin's creed (typo jotstiq?) and Kane and Lynch.

ive never seen a game look progressively less interesting over a yr long period as Assassin's creed.

they just put out horrible videos that (hopefully) dont do the game justice.

i pray im wrong...cuz i REALLY wanna like that game.

KnL just seems like it might be a fun co-op game..im not expecting much more than that. i was hoping it'd be a lil more tongue and cheek humor, but from what ive seen its all "Serious".

boo.

Contra 4 FTW, MGS ops + sounds good and Kane and lynch could be good but I’m waiting for Mass effect.

I finally got the XB360 version of the orange box and I have to say portal is awesome, the only thing is that the story mode is shorter than I imagine, it took me 2 hours to beat the story mode taking my sweet time to explore everything but it was a sweet ride. Motion sickness Hell yeah!

Now is just me or Half-life 2 graphics were enhanced for the XB360,I don't remember Half-life 2 looking that good also I don't remember it was such a cake walk.

I still haven't gotten:
Zak and Wiki
Metroid Prime 3
Ratchet and Clank
Ace Combat

And those are already out.

Now the onslaught comes, and I'm completely unprepared. Definitely getting Galaxy and Uncharted, still hoping Assassin's Creed is everything I want it to be but I'm hearing it get repetitive, and Kane and Lynch is made by the same people that did Hitman, so I'm sure it'll be in the 80's at least on score. Sigh...then Mass Effect.

But after Mass Effect, I don't think any big titles are coming out in December right? Right? Our wallets may be able to breathe.

Yeah I have head a lot of hype over those games as well. I need to pick em up.

We were talking about the lack of love the Wii gets recently - it makes us feel guilty.

You should have traded in RE4 and bought the Wii version. It's SO much better that you can't explain it unless you've played it!

Was there another delay announcement I didnt hear of?

Word Jong DS for the bus!!

P.S so off topic,when load up an image to replace the Mario picture identifying you...does it need to be a certain size or does it get reduced automatically? Don't have any guidelines there...they should do a post on that, cause most users still have the MArio pic. Not by choice I'm sure.

I have Crysis this Friday, UT3 next Monday, and Assassin's Creed early next year-- once everyone has vocalized whether it's good or not on the internet.

And right now I'm playing through Gears of War PC.

360 and ps3 both have a game I want though: Uncharted and Mass Effect need to get PC ports. Lots of hope for Mass Effect, not so much for Uncharted.
