I just realized that Far Cry 2 doesn't have co-op.
I always thought it did... :(

I'm getting Fable II, not even a question there. The odd one on my list is Spyro. I've always loved that series (it's been tough love lately) and I'd like to give the new one a try...later though, much later.

I'm picking up Dead Space! It looks very fresh, and I can live without minor updates to existing franchises until later :)

I'm strategically spending my limited funds on Left 4 Dead and probably a DS game. I'll ask for Fable 2/FC2 for a Christmas Gift.

Saving my money because Portal hits XBLA! Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal Portal.
I own the Orange box, but frankly, I don't really like anything on it *but* Portal, so now I can go sell it or just let it gather dust. I won't have to swap discs anymore. Yay! Totally worth 1200 points.

I'm saving up for Persona 4 in December and I'm pre-ordering Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts. Fable II is the other main game I want, but it has to wait a bit. GoW 2, Fallout 3, etc. are on my list, but you only have so much money.
I already paid for Mines of Moria, so I'm a bit ahead. That was personally my most wanted game this year.

I'm confused. GameStop.com has the shipping date for "Legendary" now as 10/28/08. But Amazon still has it for 10/21/08. WTF???!!! I really want this game! Guess I should call my local GStop and see what the deal is.

This such a great period for gamers! So many amazing games and not enough time or money to play them all. I decided many moons ago that I was holding on for Fallout 3 and the rest will come. But Far Cry 2 and Fable 2 look really hard to pass up. Strange how the big 3 this month all start will "F" and are sequels. WEIRD!
I shout out to Portal, I'm getting that too...
I am curios about Legendary but haven't seen any hands on or proper previews so I am dubious.
God, next month we've got Gears 2, PES2009, Mirrors Edge, CoD5, Left 4 Dead and the could be amazing but probably won't be, Quantum Of Solace! Oh and High School Musical 3!... Did I think that or type it?... Ah Shi...!!!

I would like to play Legendary but I guess I'll just rent it because it seems like a Timshift, meaning it'll be a certainly enjoyable campaign but no need to have it for longer than a week. Won't make that $60 when it could be just $7 mistake again.
I'm wrestling in my mind with Fable 2. I'll probably just buy it...I know Tomb Raider Underworld is a OMG DAY 1 and cancel all day's events game, but Fable 2 not so much. I'll probably just buy it though and hope for the best.

Yup. Called my local GameStop and they verified it. "Legendary" has been pushed back to the 28th. Which blows cuz I was really looking forward to that game.

Fable 2 & Gears of War 2 for definate
Portal maybe, since I already played half of the XBLA version already on Orange Box..
Dead Space is interesting, but by EA, a lot of conflict there..
Midnight Club LA.. there has been next to nothing on this..
Left4Dead, Tomb Raider Underworld, Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 (if they got it right this time, damn EA for Tiberium Wars), Last Remnant, FEAR2, Call of Duty: World at War (proving Treyarch don't mess it up like #3), Prince of Persia (if it's good)
Curious if Golden Axe was any good, though I doubt it..
I almost forget that there's other consoles.. DS, Wii.. and the PSP. two of those make good paperweights

I'll assume you mean the PSP and Wii. The DS is a fantastic little console (considering you love JRPGS, that is)

Unfortunatly the DS only has one game I'm interested in now, Final Fantasy 4, whenever that happens.. played it on GBA, but so much of the text was missing..
The Wii.. that has.. dust, really I don't why I don't get rid of it..
then the PSP, everytime I try to switch it on the battery has drained.. though I have a couple of games, I just have better things to play elsewhere, though I charged it up an hour ago to update the firmware..
It's only the 360 that gets abused nowadays.. I'm trying to reach 40,000 gamer score before November, since I reached 20,000 in my first year on 360, though a mate wanted to see that before Fable2.. I'm in Europe, so I get an extra couple of days, 754 short so far..

I'm definitely getting Far Cry 2 on release day, although everywhere I go seem to give different days that it'll be available, anywhere from the 21st to the 25th. I can't wait that long!

Going to pick up my copies of Fable II and Farcry 2 tonight.
Good thing I just made a grand selling pot..... holders.... made of hemp.

Assuming the games come on time around here, I'll be getting Fable II and Far Cry 2. Didn't realize Legendary and Spyro were releasing so soon. I'll have to pass on them tho and go for the big games.

How come no one's giving any love to Fallout 3, I don't see how that CAN'T be the best game of the year.
Posted: Oct 20th 2008 2:18PM (Unverified) said
The game comes out NEXT week, not this week. Everyone will be making love to Fallout 3 come next week. Right now it's Fable 2 and Farcry 2's turn.

I will be showing love for Fallout 3 come next week. Paid in full already. My must have this week is Fable II. And soon it will be Gears 2. After that, I am looking forward to trying out Dead Space and Left4Dead. Going to rent those ones first though. I am also waiting patiently for news regarding Ghostbusters. God I want to bust some heads... in a spiritual sense of course.

Fable 2 for me.
And I'm tempted to get web of shadow, actually. I do enjoy playing the super hero type.
I think it's those tights.

Fable for Christmas, Fallout and Gears on launch day. Far cry 2 looks good. I bought predator on launch and was disappointed with all of the glitches. I made it to the end of the original twice and had it freeze and corrupt my save and had to cheat just to get to the newer chuck. I am certainly waiting for it to drop. I did love the map editor though, amazingly powerful for a console.

I think you meant to say "hitting the Xbox 360 this week" not "weeks."
Also, Fallout 3 comes out next week.
I'm waiting until then to buy.

Not into Fantasy RPGs. Definitely only getting Far Cry 2. Looks incredible.

Definately WAY too many games. fable 2 will be arriving in the mail tomorrow. Far Cry 2 is on my list to buy. I'm almost done with Infinate Undiscovery. And I still have to start Saints Row 2, and Tales of Vesperia. And I pop in Rock Band 2 from time to time too. Not gonna even start with listing games in the next coming weeks.

And it's time these when I am thankful for gamefly.com. The only game I'm buying is Fallout 3. So far. There's a good chance I'll end up buying fable II from them and there's also the possibility that I'll buy CoD5.
Renting games from them has saved me tons of money.

Fable 2 for me, and Fallout 3 is next on my list. I don't have a huge interest in Far Cry 2...but then again, I haven't been following it at all.

I'm torn between Fable 2 and Far Cry 2. I want both. But I also want a pair of Turtle Beach X4's, and they're not cheap.
I'm literally undecided. Planning on going game shopping for 1 game tomorrow, and I have no idea what will be in my hand when I leave the store.

The X4s are expensive, but totally worth it.
I have the same dilemma. Far Cry 2 looks ridiculously awesome, but I have so many First Person Shooters. Maybe I can justify both ...

Getting fable 2 tomorrow, and I want Far Cry 2, Fallout 3, and Left 4 Dead. I have my fingers crossed that the Spiderman game won't suck. And TF 2 is fun. I don't know why anyone hates anything on the orange box.

I´d go for Fable II and Far Cry 2, if I wouldn´t have to still plow through The Force Unleashed and GTA4. Gaming time, as usual is scarce and my backlog is stronger than ever...
...and theres GoW2 on the horizon!
