    I think it's a pretty poor couple of months ahead. A case of lots of Quantity but not alot of Quality.

    Will probably pick up Dishonored if it turns out to be decent and maybe X-Com. That's it really but not too bothered. Loving Torchlight2 at the moment and have Borderlands2, just waiting for 2 friends to pick it up and get the co-op goodness going.

    Man I've been waiting for a proper x-com since terror from the deep, if natural selection II is as good as the original I'll get it. In the mean time borderlands2 and torchlight2 are keeping me plenty ocuppido.

    Picked up Binary Domain, Sonic Generations and Hitman Blood Money this week. Got them all for about €40. Played the first hour of Binary Domain its a bit odd but enjoyable nonetheless

    I might just plop down some hardly-earned cash on Paper Mario: Sticker Story (it's going back to turn-based, which is brilliant), and one of the Special Pikachu 3DS yolkies. Mostly, to be honest, to save spending a massive premium on them second-hand in six years time.

    If you get a Pikachu one though you can never pull it out in public for fear of total embarrassment.

    I live in a relatively civilized part of the world, where we insult people for perfectly reasonable and valid reasons. Like, for example, owning an awesome Pikachu 3DS and being afraid to whip it out in public.

    XCOM is the big one currently on my radar, didn't know anything about the franchise when it was first announced but big fan of Firaxis, and have read up a bit on the older XCOM games so now pretty excited.

    Dishonoured will be a 'wait and see' for me.

    Won't buy FIFA (i know it's out already) but will likely play a good bit of it over the next few months.

    Waiting for reviews for Dishonored and XCOM. Dishonored strikes me as a game that could be available on the cheap pretty quickly.

    looks like i will be almost completely skiping on "gaming season" this year. I still got so many games i havent even installed from steam, so buying new games will be just a waste. i better wait for price drops and steam sales.

    borderlands 2 + EVE online has taken my attention for some time now.

    pretty high score on the first review i've read for XCOM so far,
    9.5 / 10
    http://www.gameinformer.com/games/xcom_enemy_unknown/b/xbox360/archive/2012/10/05/review.aspx

    there's a decent video there too that shows new footage of a terror mission, though the reviewers are playing it like they're bored of it already which is a bit worrying.

    Dishonored and Hitman, both pre-ordered. I dunno about Halo I liked the first three but shooters are so boring these days I don't even bother researching them anymore.
    If torchlight comes on xbox i'll get that too.

    Think pretty much every Bethesda published game has had a very late review embargo dates over the past few years unfortunately.

    EDIT: has been one leaked cvg review actually, since pulled which gave it 9.5, I think it is gonna be a great game. Here's hoping anyway.
