Re: And So It Begins...

That Deus Ex thread has me itching to play that, but I've resisted the temptation so far. All I have for this fall is :

NBA 2K12
Shadow of the Collosus/Ico
Metal Gear HD Collection
ES: Skyrim

I may rent GoW3 just finish out the single player story.

Re: And So It Begins...

ha I can see skyrim alone not allowing you to see daylight for a quite a few Novembers. Your list is similar to mine, but I don't have Assassin's Creed Revelations in the mix, either it's going to be Rage, Uncharted, Dark Souls, or Arkham City. But I'm more likely leaning towards Rage because I haven't played Demon's Souls or Arkham Asylum yet, or finished the second installment of uncharted.

The good news is I have some credit stockpiled at Gamestop and a little at Amazon to where my wallet won't take a huge hit, however a good deal of that credit will be used up for Deus Ex in a few hours. I can't really remember a fall videogame season so cluttered with must play or interesting games, I guess it's more power to the consumer or maybe more damage to the good ole bank account depending on the way you look at it.

Yeah, I'm going to use my Madden Amazon Credit on BF3. Arkham City looks pretty good, but I tend to wait until those go down in price in that I'm already paying a couple months of car payments for games

While the original Assassin's Creed left me unimpressed at the time, I fell head first into II and Brotherhood.

Re: And So It Begins...

Best Buy is giving $100 in RZ points for anybody who's a part of the Gamer's Club that pre-orders five titles from this list:

- NCAA Football 12
- Madden NFL 12
- Resistance 3
- Gears of War 3
- FIFA 12
- Rage
- Just Dance 3
- Batman Arkham City
- Forza Motorsport 4
- Battlefield 3
- Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
- Elder Scrolls Skyrim
- Assassin's Creed Revelations
- Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword
- Saint's Row: The Third

With a $150 gift card and the extra $100 I would receive for this, I would obviously be able to cover the spread for five games. I just don't see the need for five at this time, though. Looking into the future, if SSX and Twisted Metal were on this list, it would be a lot easier for me to make this decision. Hell, even if NHL 12 and NBA 2K12 were on this list, that would help a lot.

For the time being, I'm looking at these possibilities:

- NHL 12
- Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
- Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
- Battlefield 3
- Saint's Row: The Third

Whole lotta trilogies coming into the mix this fall. I think Rage is the only new IP out of this entire list.

Re: And So It Begins...

Deus Ex 3
Mortal Kombat HD Collection - thankfully that's only $10
Rage
Battlefield 3
Skyrim
Batman Arkham City
Halo: CE Anniversary

And I was hoping to build a new PC for Battlefield 3, Rage, and my copy of Witcher 2 that I already purchased but haven't played yet because I'm waiting to build my new PC.

[Pezell04x]

Preordered:

Madden 12
Gears 3
Batman Arkham City
Battlefield 3

I'm sure the wife has her divorce papers being drawn up as I type this haha

Here's the good news. I had TONS of games to trade in to Amazon. Paying full price for Madden.23 dollars for Gears 3...10 for Batman and using the 50 in amazon gift cards I'll be getting for those games to get Battlefield.

Basically 100 or so for 4 games.

God...dang it...

I totally forgot about BF3. My wallet is getting thinner by the minute.

Re: And So It Begins...

I managed to build up quite a bit of Gamestop credit while they were running the extra 60% promos. Still I'm only buying what I have time for. Singleplayer games (except Skyrim) can wait. They will only get cheaper.

My day one pick-ups:
Madden 12
Gears of War 3
BF3
Skyrim

If I even have time in between those I still have about 6 games in my backlog.

I feel the exact same way. I can afford to wait a couple months with the other games we'll get.

Re: And So It Begins...

Already have Deus Ex HR taking up a ton of my time at the moment. As for the rest of the year...

Batman
Skyrim
UC3

I may pick up Battlefield, but i've had just about enough of online shooters for this lifetime. They get rather boring to me after a while.

[sportsdude]

Re: And So It Begins...

I don't know how I'm going to get all these, but I'd like the following:

Gears 3
Battlefield 3
Halo CE HD
Uncharted 3
Forza 4
FIFA 12
Resistance 3

and also Torchlight 2 and Diablo 3 if those end up coming out this year.

edit: crap, forgot about GoldenEye Reloaded

If you don't already frequent this site, you should:

www.cheapassgamer.com

I haven't paid MSRP for a game in years because most games have deals either on release week or within two to three weeks of being released.

Well, outside of XBLA games, which usually don't go on-sale until many months after being out. Good thing arcade games are all cheap to begin with.
