    Hey,
    Its that time of year again when my bank account, my social life, my thumbs strength suffer so just thought I'd start a thread, because I feel I may be missing some great titles, only heard really of Bioshock a couple of weeks before and wasn't too sold on it.
    On my horizon, I got:
    Halo 3 - 26th September.
    Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 - 26th October
    Assasin's Creed - 9th November
    WWE Smackdown Vs Raw 2008 - 9th November

    Halo 3 - Obviously I buy, just so much hype and previews saying it gonna be class, have never played a halo game so not sure what to expect.

    PES2008: nuff' said. I'll say more tho, this time of year I love getting a new PES that will tide my gaming over till August 08.

    Assasins Creed looks very impressive from screens and videos and look top notch next gen.

    WWE: Kinda gettin back into wrestling now that I have Sky Sports so wouldn't mind a look at this.

    You?

    Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda Phantom Hourglass, Wii MarioKart, Mass Effect, Halo3, PGR4, Assasins Creed.
    If you need an urgent Mass Effect, perhaps a nice warm enema, or purging with a bowel irrigation, that should have some effect on ones mass!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,225 ✭✭✭Ciaran500


    Crysis is comin on the 360!?
    Nope, Far Cry 2 is but that has nothing to do with Crysis or Crytek.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 386 ✭✭That Guy 901


    Halo 3 and PES 2008 for me. And we'll see what else comes along!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭A-Trak


    Speedball 2 on Arcade

    Woo-Hoo I can't wait!!

    Also SWOS

    And (although I know it looks grim, but please baby Jesus let it happen,) some form of Sega Nights!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 118 ✭✭redbhoy1888


    Halo 3 played the other two on 360 and liked them.
    Pro Evo 8 its that time of year again.
    Brothers In Arms Hells Highway love this series so much and this is prob the end for it too.
    Assassins Creed I hope the hype is justified
    COD 4 it looks simply amazing.
    Kane And Lynch as an outside bet.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,400 ✭✭✭Vyse


    Eternal Sonata (top of my list) followed by Lost Odyssey:D

    That would be next year, this year it's PES2008.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 118 ✭✭redbhoy1888


    3177 posts nit picking what people say??And its not the first time I got it either.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    Kane & Lynch - This looks ****in unreal so far, could be a big sleeper hit.

    Halo 3 - What fan of the series isn't awaiting this one like the second coming of the gaming christ?

    Call Of Duty 4 - Looks like its going to be one hell of an enjoyable game.

    Fallout 3 - Its a bit off release, but being a major fan of the series (and Oblivion), I can't wait to get my hands on this.

    Army of Two - Looks like its going to be a brilliant Co-op game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,684 ✭✭✭Kraken


    Assassins Creed
    Two worlds
    Army of two


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,860 ✭✭✭Julez


    PES 2008*
    Smackdown Vs. Raw 2008
    Stuntman: Ignition (Just ordered from play asia)*
    Halo 3 (Although I probably wont like it)
    Call Of Duty 4
    Stranlehold
    Mercenaries 2
    Burnout: Paradise*

    *The ones I'm really looking forward to!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 377 ✭✭CarefulNow


    Assassins Creed
    Halo 3
    PES
    Stranglehold
    Burnout Paradise
    COD4 looks pretty good.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 30,019 CMod ✭✭✭✭johnny_ultimate


    Assasians Creed is looking mighty fine - it is extremely odd that it seems to have so many detractors around the interweb lately. It looks hella fun :p
    Im getting sucked into the Mass Effect hype I must admit. Without GTAIV, looks like it will be keeping me company during those long Winter evenings.
    I will likely pick up Eternal Sonata, and Lost Odyssey will hopefully be worth a play.

    Im not sure about Kane & Lynch. Looks like your average shooter, but with a bit of the old ultraviolence knocked up a notch.

    Probably all the games mentioned already but couldn't give a toss about Halo 3.

    I'm really looking forward to lost odyssey. Blue Dragon is a brilliant game and got some unfair stick from a lot of reviews. IT is archaic but just like Dragon Quest VIII it's heaps of fun which is all that matters. I'm hoping Lost Odyssey provides a more serious storyline.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,828 ✭✭✭unklerosco


    GOW 2... whenever its due. N then when thats out GOW 3....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭AdrianII


    PES 2008 :D

    Sega Rally - Hope it is good although i havent seen much about it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,890 ✭✭✭✭Nalz

    Nearly finished stranglehold


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,393 ✭✭✭✭Vegeta

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 KaiserSnake


    Well the games im looking forward to are:

    PES 2008
    Halo 3
    Assassins Creed
    GTA IV

    I must admit I havent heard of Mass Affect so I cant give my opinion on it. :eek:

    Surely next year it will be PES 2009 and not PES8?

    It would make no sense to skip a year like that.

    Unless they just want to skip "Winning Eleven Eleven"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 888 ✭✭✭Kanney


    I'd say it will be PES 2009.
    I'm really hoping nothing else gets delayed, I get pissed off everytime i think I could've be playing GTA IV in just over a month.
    :mad:

    - Virtua Fighter 5
    - Splinter Cell Conviction looks like it could be well worth a look (strangely hadn't seen anyone else mention it, what don't I know?).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 888 ✭✭✭Kanney

    So out of that list I can cross off PGR4 (AWESOME!), GHIII (can't be bothered after playing the demo...) and Speedball 2 (needs a drunk partner to play with tbh)
    And I guess I can add Naruto and Ikaruga (arcade) to the list...
