What games are you looking forward to now?
This gets repeated every 3 months or so... thought I'd be the one to start the ball rolling this time. No sense in digging up an older topic as it'd all be out of date by now. Here are mine:
Spyro 4 - The series is now being handled by Equinoxe Check 6 instead of Insomniac... let's hope they do just as good a job. It's already looking good. Unfortunately, I think the silliness and surreal factors of Spyro 3 are here to stay; I don't think they plan on recreating the mystical, draconian feel of the original. Tekken 4 - The next incarnation of the King Of The Iron Fist Tournament. Looking superb. Ape Escape 2 - The original was a classic. Ugly graphics, but a classic nonetheless. Righteously hailed as one of the best platfomers ever, I expect nothing less from the sequel. Vexx - This is a weird game. It's a platformer, but it's very dark and scary, mingling standard-fare cuteness with downright disturbing stuff. Malice - Fit girl with a dirty great mallet. Formerly an XBox exclusive, it's now defected to my dream machine. Yippee-ki-ay! Rayman 3 - The scary man with no limbs and a nose bigger than his head is set to return. I just hope it's another platformer and not one of those daft racers he's been doing. Ratchet & Clank - Insomiac's new series. It is technically a platformer (starting to see a pattern here? 3 guesses as to what my favourite game genre is), but Insomny is trying to get the genre renamed as 'character action'. Riiiight. The screenshots I've seen are looking superb; it looks and plays rather like Jak & Daxter but is set in a futuristic, sci-fi, industrial cityscapes rather than in a lush natural world dotted with the odd ruin and lowly dwellings. Oh, and there's a character called Skid McMarx. Sly Raccoon - A cel-shaded thief-'em-up. One of the precious few games where you play a bad guy. Kingdom Hearts - Okay, it's got Disney characters in it. But it's made by Square, which balances out the bad karma. Looks like fun. Prisoners Of War - Escape from WWII PoW camps by bribing guards, stealing things and MGS-style stealth. It's very time-dependent a well; you have to show up for role call and everything, which adds another dimension to the gameplay. Futurama - The Simpsons video games were fairly disappointing, so I'm prepared for the worst from this one, but we can live in hope. Freaky Flyers - It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World, but with planes. An action adventure that involves flying. Nice. Dr. Muto - Platformer/action game with a deranged quack. Dragonkind - Not much is yet known about this game, but the artwork and character design is superb; having been designed by many ex-Marvel Comics illustrators. It's an action game that lets you play as some dude who gets on well with dragons, who help him. Good concept and graphics; let's see if they can pull it off. EDIT: I don't know why there's a line break in the middle; but I can't make it go away. |
I just bought my new PS2 and Final Fantasy X ... so I am looking forward to playing that tonight when I get home!!! :)
It's about time... I have only been waiting 6 months since the US release! We finally got it over here in Australia (the release date was bought forward... woo hoo... otherwise I would have had to wait until when I got back from my trip). Abe Babe... |
I'm looking foreward to:
Project Ego - looks very pretty and you can visit everything you can see GTA3 - I'm waiting for the Xbox version... MGS2 - I've heard it's very good and I can't wait until it appears on the Xbox {EDIT: I forgot to menion that the amount of cut-scenes may stop me from buying it because MGS1 really started to annoy me after a few hours, most of which was full of cut-scenes} Malice - looks very nice and the clockwork hammer looks fun Unreal Championship - looks beautiful and its multiplayer should be better than Halo's because of the bots Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 - it looks very good, there are mini-games and there seem to be rhinos |
Where can i find infomation on PoW OTM?
I'm looking forward to Project Ego and MGSX and possibly FFX if it comes out for X-Box. |
1. Tekki
2. Project Ego 3. Halo 2 (C'mon! You know it will happen!) |
Oddworld (AE)- Xbox
Halo 2-Xbox Tony Hawk 4-Xbox House Of The Dead 3-Xbox WWE Raw 2-Xbox Grand Theft Auto 3-Xbox those are the games i realy want this year :fuzcool: |
*revels in his undeadness. It seems he was in a play and has had no freetime for a month or two*
Project Ego: I cannot wait to mold a character to be exactly what I want it to be. Use magic and your eyes glow with power. Be a coward and you get a shrew-like appearance and a facial mole. Use a hefty sword and your muscles grow. Just plain fun Munch's Exoddus: Big suprise Hand of Odd: Ok, I'll stop suprising you. Don't want to be responsible for a heart attack of something. Squeek's Odd...er...never mind Kingdom Hearts: OK, so Goofy is a mage. It's square, so it can't possibly be that bad Magical Vacation: A communication RPG. Don't know what that means, but its by a broken off faction of Square FFXI: If it comes out for the PC or XBOX. But I hate monthly fee games...only time will tell Vexx: Looks very cool. Realtime day and night cycles Sims for PS2: Totally revamped for the console and includes many of the things from the exspansion packs I was too lazy to get Kung Fu Chaos: I think that's the right title. Pretty much 3D super smash bros for the XBOX. More but I can't think of them right now |
I look forward to two games, they haunt me much like Munch's Oddysee haunted me before its realease. The two games are Brute Force and Toejam and Earl 3.
|

Well, here we go here....
Outlaw Golf- Golf and strippers.....together at last! Grand Theft Auto 3 (XBOX)- I heard that you can import skins (they might have been talking about cars) Munch's Exoddus- Why, of course! Project Ego- Get scarred for life.......well, err virtual life That about sums it up... |
Look what I found since this topic sank into page two!
Blinx. I'm predicting that this will be my favourite game when I get it. JSRF's a tough competitior for my attention. http://xbox.ign.com/articles/360/360175p1.html http://www.xbox.com/blinx/default.ht...talog=cat%2dus |
Blinx looks like a fun game, cant wait to see it in real life :D
|
Gamesdomain has there E3 revelations up, so if anyone wants to go and look at some good games soon to be then go there. Its quite interesting.
By the by, has anyone ever played 'Everquest' ? |
Sadly, GTA3 was cancled for X-Box, I was looking foward to that. All I'm anticipating now really is MGS2 for X-Box, ME (slightly), and Halo2. IF you count games that are out now and I want, Crash 3, JSRF and SH2. My bro went out and got a ps1 today so we have a working playstation again, and he got RalliSport Challange and Gun Valkyrie. My god, GV kicks ass! Still got 100$, thats 2 games, o the choices.

Apparently it's a bit like Starship Troopers. Blasting the anything out of insectoid aliens. I forgot to mention, there's a short bit of gameplay footage of Blinx on the E3 press-breifing video at Xbox.com. Looks excellent! |
1.MO
2.GTA3(pc) 3.UnrealChampionship(pc) |
I am really looking forward to Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc.
EDIT: And Moonshine Runners |

Malice - been waiting for a year for this to come out....it BETTER be good...great storyline, too
MGS2X - with new levels! Woot! Kingdom Hearts - I don't care. Opening a can of whoop-ass with Donald Duck just sounds like great fun to me. Toe Jam and Earl III- COME ON!!!! |
Ah man, I'm so enraged. Not really, but apparently GTA3 has been canceled for X-Box. I shall subsist on GTA3 on PC then, it kicks. And Tom, your right though about ST, although I think of the movement more along the lines of Virtual Ontario. Great stuff, great stuff.....
|
One of my friends is going to burn me a copy of GTA3 for PC tommarrow, so I don't have to dish 50 bucks!:D :D

2. It's good, but you can't strafe! It drives me crazy! I'll skip it... Rawhide! Back from Arizona! And just as I suspected, almost nothing happened! |
:
2. I thought that was scary when I read the review... I don't know if I could survive without strafe... 3. Which state's that in? And did you have fun? |
