So yeah, we got this:

October 28 - Fallout 3
November 7 - Gears of War 2
November 11 - Call of Duty: WaW
November 17 - Left 4 Dead

The following months are going to be a mixture of sheer giddyness from all the releases, and also trying to get a hold of all the games and enjoy them all. I'm most certainly going to buy them all, whether or not on release day is still to be decided, seeing as how that's gonna be setting me back some major bills. What are you guys planning to get, and on what platforms?
 
Fallout 3 on the 360, and L4D on the PC. I'll get the others later, and I'll likely pass on CoD5.

What a great few months!
 
Only Gears and Left4Dead and sure purchases thar for me. Though it is exciting times. Replace World at War with Fable II and that list is gtg!

Asuka you're really buying ALL of that?
 
Aliens: Colonial Marines, Red Faction 3, Brutal Legend and Prototype should be in there also.
 
Quite a few maybes on that list. And even a few probablies!
 
Civilization IV Colonization
Crysis Warhead (maybe)
Fallout 3 (maybe)
Far Cry 2
Left 4 Dead
Mirror's Edge
STALKER: Clear Sky (just bought)

Next Year (at least confirmed for next year anyway):

Dawn of War II
Deus Ex 3
F.E.A.R. 2
Operation Flashpoint 2 (maybe)
 
Disgaea DS: September ('obtain')
Fallout 3 (on preorder)
Red Alert 3 (on preorder)
GTAIV (maybe)

Fark man, I really need a job.
 
Awww no Left 4 Dead for Halloween. :p

That's probably the only one I'm getting... unless Fallout 3 gets amazing reviews.
 
fear 2 got pushed back??? when did this happen?

last i heard it was suppose to release around late october.
 
You don't need to buy everything at once, you know.
 
The only October games that have piqued my interest, and I have the hardware to play, are:

Far Cry 2 (PS3)
Resistance Fall of Man 2 (PS3)

Not really interested in anything else although for me, having two games in a month that I'm interested in could be a first.
 
Far Cry 2 (may kill my PC)
Left 4 Dead
Gears of War 2
Mirrors Edge (demo first?)

Fallout 3 is a maybe, it would have to be AMAZING for me to buy it. Same for Fable 2, it seems incredibly ambitious and almost impossible to pull off right, but then again I said the same about Rock Band...

Oh, and Dawn of War II I am really excited for as well.

Good thing my birthday is right in the middle of all these releases :D
 
You don't need to buy everything at once, you know.

You're confused as to how the system works. The game comes out, and you buy it the next day. If you don't follow the system... You get shot... :|

No.

You pre-order based on hype and stand by the game like your life depends on it because you spent 60? on a nice intro.

Yup. On release dates to, hate getting shit after.
 
It's asuka why are you surprised? :p

My list isn't exactly small either though :|
 
Erm, Red Faction Guerilla(Red Faction 3) isn't due out until sometime 2009.

Edit:Weirdass doublepost, please delete this one!
 
Nobody else psyched for Fable II but me? I actually loved the first one.
 
Oooh, forgot about the new BIA, that I'll probably buy eventually too.
 
Damn it....

Mirrors Edge PC release has been pushed back from November apparently to an unspecified date (though probably Dec), however the console releases are still on for Nov 11th. I'd imagine it might be because it would be competing with GTAIV and L4D in an already packed November release schedule and someone at EA wisely thought it might be better for everyone to have a bit of a respite.
 
Lambda, isn't it ironic that you claim to be a revolutionary against EA's DRM machine yet bend over for Mirror's Edge?
 
Quite a few maybes on that list. And even a few probablies!

This post made me ****ing laugh.

Indeed, there are quite a few games on that list that might possibly be worth thinking about considering being interested in.

Is it too late to play Pool Of Radiance? No, seriously :)

You mean SSIs Pool Of Radiance? No, NEVER, it's great, I played it through a few weeks back when I was having my Gold Box-marathon.
 
Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, Fallout 3, GOW2 are all on the upcoming for me. Gonna be a good next few months, hopefully.
 
Civilization IV Colonization
Far Cry 2 (pre ordered)
Fallout 3
Left 4 Dead
Mirrors Edge
Gears of War 2
 
I think Asuka just wants the box really :|

BTW Digi your list looks really similar to mine :p
