This is a list of the games coming out that every single one of you should purchase. Atleast, it's a list of games that I will be purchasing. In specific order:

1. Half-Life 2:
The continuation of the infamous journey of Gordon Freeman. Featuring the new "Source" engine created by Valve featuring a VERY impressive array of effects. Direct x 9 at its finest.

2. Thief (3):
Garret, the man, the theif. Not much needs to be said, this is some sick shit here people. Sneaking around a medievil castle taking out gaurds with a handfull of broadhead arrows in one hand and your blackjack in the other. Being made on the 'Vanilla' Unreal Tech engine featuring dynamic lighting ala Doom 3, I'm really looking forward to this sucker.

3. FarCry:
Wow, such enviorments. Miles of openess, vehicles, non-scriped AI. Amazing. The graphics are very incredible aswell, being developed on it's own engine, it looks very impressive and is set in a jungle atmosphere on exotic islands. And sporting vehicles and ragdoll to boot.

4. S.T.A.L.K.E.R.:
Original. A 'russian' themed first person shooter taking place in 'The Zone'. A radioactive, post apoctolypic scene. Mutated creatures and a dynamic weather system in a world filled with hunters. Various groups control differant parts of the zone as you try and survive in this world. Amazing vehicle physics...

5. X2 The Threat:
An amazing looking space flight game. Holy shit. It's insane. The graphics along with the gameplay, which, anything like the first, will be incredibly deep. It's also the only space flight sim with dynamic shadows.

6. Deus Ex 2:
The first one was a player-controlled twisting adventure of imagination and development. Allowing the player to creep, or blast his way through the game using an impressive array of skills. Also using the 'Vanilla' Unreal Tech engine.

7. Soldner:
Solder, aka Mercinary, is a Operation Flashpoint/Battlefield 1942 hybrid. Featuring destructable terrain and randomly generated out door areas, I'm greatly attracted to this masterpiece.

8. Doom 3:
Being made on the Doom 3 engine, it's also a heavy contendor. Featuring dynamic lighting and insane bump mapping, it's sure to make you shit your pants. Running in a complex filled with zombies and demons, make sure your clip is full.

Feel free to comment on any differances you have with your own, personal "Top Games List". Wether it be order, or a totally differant set of games or even a game here.
 
Thief I'm not so interested in. The others, I'll get them all.

Also, Joint Operations looks very promising.
 
I personally would have VTM:Bloodlines on that list, but to each their own :)
 
thief looks awesome, i used to play thief 2 all the time. all it really needs is a graphical upgrade.

...and make it easier :)
 
I completely agree with ya gh0st. Thief just needs a little polish in the graphics, (ie Dynamic Shadows, Dynamic Lighting, and Normal Mapping) and everything be real cool like. :cool:
 
Fantastic little post, Top Secret. I must say, I'm in almost complete agreement with you.
 
I'm still anticipating HL2 way more than any other game, not phased at all by the delays :)

Other than that... Soldner looks okay, haven't really formed an opinion on DX2 yet, Doom 3 I'd have to see how it ran but I'll bet that'll be kickass for mods.
 
What about Lula 3D?! They are missing the best game!!! ARGH!!!
 
All of the above + MOH pasific assult but except for thief3
 
I'm seeing a severe lack of UT2k4 on that list.
 
agreed :) , maybe the duke should also have his place on the list ;) and moh pa, too
 
I would, but it's what UT2K3 should have been. And I'm not sure they even updated it to direct X 9....
 
My most wanted games include consoles

1. FarCry
2. Halo 2
3. HL2 (that's right...down to 3)
4. Fable
5. MGS3
6. GTA4
6. MOH: PA
7. Doom 3
8. Conker: Live and Uncut
9. Something else I know I'm forgetting
10. Thief 3
