2. Hellgate: London
3. Starcraft 2
4. Gears of War
5. Star Wars: Force Unleashed

I was wondering about Hellgate London, it's been in production for yonks now.

Games that aren't out yet but I intend to purchase (but probably wont):

Fable 2
Halo 3 (Didn't realise it is supposedly getting released so close to my birthday, should be easy)
Etrian Odyssey (any first person rpg is good enough fluff for me)


Things that I've always meant to buy but have never gotten around to:

-Whiplash, Xbox
-Boombots, PSone
-Shenmue 1, and a Dreamcast

If it's movies and cds though, I've got a much larger list.

-Shenmue 1, and a Dreamcast

You know, it's been years since I've even owned a Dreamcast, but I distinctly remember the vivid feeling of disgust I experienced when I was working a minimum-wage job... in the fucking game. Literally, that is the only thing I remember about that one. It's like... I play games to escape reality, thank you very much; I consider it to be one of the most overrated underrated games ever made. XD

But, you know, knock yourself out. Different strokes for different folks and whatnot. :p

If I still had either, I would ship 'em to you for free. Oh wells!

Bullet Magnet 05-23-2007 07:45 PM

1. Spore
2. Halo 3
3. Fable 2
4. Star Wars: Force Unleashed

Hardware:
1. A Spore-worthy computer
2. Xbox 360

At think point I'm bankrupt and promptly evicted.

Lols, so true. I kinda thought that in Shenmue II, when you just had to hit the streets for money. Beat people up, gamble etc. Guess that's why I've never finished it.

But I intend to! It's in the 'Games to Finish' thread.

Lol.

As for Mushroom Men... What the **** is that? So far it's a flash cartoon come trailer with Primusy music. I like it, but 'what the shit?'s are in order.

Wil 05-28-2007 04:57 AM

Crash of the Titans
LittleBigPlanet
Maybe Spore, GTAIV or Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain‐Slick Precipice of Darkness
Will keep an eye on Mushroom Men, as it looks interesting.

As for what console I will end up with, who knows? LBP is PS3 exclusive, yet Titans will be so much cooler on the Wii. Xbox 360 hasn’t got much going for it, heh.

Well, maybe not for you... :p

Daxter King 05-28-2007 09:22 AM

Damn, I forgot Overlord. Basicly, its Pikmin and Oblivion in one package.


mitsur 05-28-2007 09:33 AM

This trailer for Bioshock made me want to add it.

Warning, this is a bit graphic.






6-finger-fred 05-28-2007 10:08 AM

I want BioShock so damn bad...

1.Spore (Delays make me die a little)
2.BioShock (System Shock was awesome)
3. Halo 3

Those prerendered graphics are pretty sweet. Not so sure about the gameplay though. The design is quite Lord of the Rings derivative though and the orc voices just sound like Gollum.

Daxter King 05-28-2007 11:55 PM

The minions remind me of Gremlins. It is also supposed to be funny. So that is two more pluses.
