Too. Many. Games!!!

So as the year enters its final phase with the run up to Christmas, more great games than ever are about to be released to the gaming public...

With something for everyone this year, what are people most excited about and looking forward to? Gears2, Fallout3, Dead Space? Sure I am missing a few here....

Dead Space and Fable 2 are foremost in my mind, for no real reason.

Luckily I've got a few days left to play in Mercs2, so some decent reviews should start rolling in before I have to put any money down.

So, on top of your list add Fable 2 and Far Cry 2.

Links to Meta reviews for y'all.



Fable II - ave: 93, top: 95, bottom: 90, reviews: 5
Dead Space - ave: 89, top: 100, bottom: 65, reviews: 29
Fallout 3 - ave: n/a, top:100, bottom: n/a, reviews: 1
Far Cry 2 - ave: 88, top: 94, bottom: 80, reviews: 5
Saints Row 2 - ave: 82, top: 96, bottom: 50, reviews: 44
Gears of War 2 - No reviews yet.

Now definitely leaning towards Fable II, although I have played a lot of RPGish games recently.

I am def going to go with fallout or dead space...

the consensus on dead space is that its nothing new, but a really polished game.

looks like LBP for any ps3 owners /potential owners is off the menu for a little longer!!!

andybeta said...

Decision made for me... going for Fable 2.

Hopefully some of you will be joining me so we can do a bit of drop-in co-op.

Will LBP be out for the next Fi Club (at mine) and will you be prepared to bring the PS3 if it is?

Munchk said...

re LBP: not sure, and yes. in that order!

amazon are quoting nov 5th... but a weds seems an odd day to me....

andybeta said...

The nooz sites say Nov 5th too.

As a firework worshipper I find this date offensive.

The footage of Gears 2 I've seen looks good, and the multi-player should be fun, but it's probably more of the same.
Left for Dead if EA can get it to work.
I've not read anything yet on Fable2.
Fallout 3 looks ok.
Some tough choices to come.

Oh it's hell being a gamer!

It looks like Mrs. cookie will be working the late shift on the 31st (the next Fi due date).
So I wont be able to make it to anyone else's pad.

Oh, I forgot.
How about Guitar Hero World Tour and rock Band 2!
I fancy GHWT as a complete set and just the game for RB.

Fable 2 is here! I'll be playing tonight once I finish the final mission on Mercs 2 (not including all the HVTs and destructo side missions.)
