    GTA 4 but I still haven't made up my mind whether to buy a PS3 or an Xbox 360. The XBox is cheaper so it'll probably be the one I go for.

    Call of Duty 4 - I've been playing the beta and it is great.
    Halo 3 - never played Halo but have been caught up in the hype.
    GTA IV - GTA with the power of the Xbox 360 should be special.
    Pro Evo 7 - in the list every year.

    Hopefully some good mmorpg, Warhammer, age of conan, darkfall(lol).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,111 ✭✭✭MooseJam


    some of those lists are BIG, though I suppose looking forward to doesn't necessarily mean buying them all, you would need deep pockets for that

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,132 ✭✭✭silvine


    I see Knights of the Old Republic III was mentioned. After the complete rip-off that was KNOTR II, I hope the franchise is buried. We, the gamers, were ripped off with an unfinished product.

    FEAR 2 anyone?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,346 ✭✭✭✭KdjaCL


    pro evo

    as long after i have played all the above games i will still be playing pro evo.

    GTA4
    ETQW
    The Warhammer MMORPG (it's gotta be better than the gay fairy ****ing WoW)
    Oh, and hopefully a Need For Speed game that has cops with better AI.

    lol... yeah wtf??? The AI in most wanted was amazing. They where almost like the agents in the matrix, once you seen a red flash on your map you where like "sh!t, get to the nearest safe house pronto, stay off the motorway, its suicide :D" They performed perfect precision box maneuvers. Thats what made me so good at MW, the constant pressure to get better or get caught by the cops. But then in Carbon, you could just drive around the corner, and the police would lose you. Plus as there was no police missions you HAD to complete in Carbon, you just didn't bother. Lets hope Prostreet turns the series around and concentrates more on AI instead of letting me make my spoiler the size of a 747's wing :rolleyes:

    Not too hopeful about Turok. The guys who made the only decent Turok games, 1 and 2, are now retro studios and are making the Metroid Prime series.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,304 ✭✭✭✭koneko


    Reports after it was shown at a Microsoft event were actually very positive, I was surprised.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,643 ✭✭✭0ubliette


    indeed, all signs point to turok actually being good. It certainly looks the business at any rate.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,406 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Interesting. I suppose there would be a new team behind it since wasters Akklaim went bust.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,132 ✭✭✭silvine


    Ah Halo 3. The hype for that game is something else, it's hard not to be a little curious about it.

    I've only played the first one and it was good... but I dunno if it deserved the acclaim its gotten.

    Still the Master Chief's pr machine rages on.
