Recommended Posts

No Banjo-Kazooie.

 

The list fails.

 

Also, there's way too many shooters on the list.

Banjo-Kazooie... ah... you pull on my heart strings with a playful smile, will you ever cling on to them for good though?

From the trailer that was released ages ago Banjo and Kazooie looked horrible. They looked like sponge cut outs.

 

And i'm sure there's several games that are better than Grand Theft Auto IV. Ah well lifes cruel.

All I'm interested in is...

 

Xbox 360

 

Resident Evil 5

Burnout Paradise

Too Human

Devil May Cry 4

Soul Calibu IV

Ninja Gaiden 2

Grand Theft Auto IV

 

Wii

The rest I can quite hapilly take or leave, and as for the PS3 games, I'd be happier to wait if they are planning on porting those two titles as I know many people will say that they are games to own a PS3 for but atm I am happy with my Wii / Xbox 360 and need more than just those two games to sway me toward buying one. :heh:

1, 2 and 3 were fantastic. Rage Wars was just a spin off and Evolution was a bit poor, but still fun.

 

The new one looks like it could be good.

I don't even want to watch it. I know I'll just see some more games I want. I like, now, not knowing what will come out and when.

As for Banjo Threeie. If this doesn't come out I will hurt Rare.

I liked 1 and Rage Wars. Rage Wars felt like Quake 3 for consoles, only slower and generally insane. I remember playing that one alot.

Interesting list. Never heard of half the games, then again i tend not to take any notice until a couple of weeks before release.

 

Turok looks great though, and im desperate to see Too Human released, been following it for way too long now! Don't care if it's shite, i just want to play it :p

Yeah, I wonder what the deal is with Banjo as we havent seen or heard anything in AGES!

 

Glad to see Infamous on the list as I loved the teaser trailer for it shown at this years E3.

 

In regards to the amount of shooters on the list its just the norm now. Gamecentral on channel 4 teletext covered this very issue a few weeks back and what they said is true. The FPS genre has become what the Platform game genre was in the 16bit era. Every other game back then was a platform game and now every other game is now a shooter.

 

Its hard to get excited about alot of those games on the list as we dont know alot about most of them and personally I still have a few to catch up on from this year. But looking at the list and scanning the ones we do know about then it looks to be another good year for gamers, especially those with multiple consoles.

If I could only have a few next year, I'd have:

 

Wii Fit

Left 4 Dead

Alan Wake

Little Big Planet

Too Human (if it turns out to be good)

 

Most of the rest are sequels or shooters... not that I'm not looking forward to some of them too mind, but it's best to look forward to the newer experiences I think.

The rest I don't care about / haven't heard of.

Infamous should be awesome. Sucker Punch made the brilliant sly games so hopefully it will turn out great. Then they have to make another Sly!
