Tell Us Dammit

12 years ago

November 3, 2011 at 11:00 am

Is it possible to have a Tell Us Dammit that’s not about GTA V? It’ll be tough, but let’s give it a go. Alrighty, let’s keep it simple. Including Grand Theft Auto V, and all the games that are yet to be released this year, what are you most looking forward to?

We still have Skyrim, Zelda, and a new Assassin’s Creed to come this year — not to mention Modern Warfare 3. Then early next year we have Mass Effect 3 and, of course GTA V.

Then we have the more niche games. I’m keen for Journey, Trials Evolution and The Last Guardian.

Man, that’s a lot of games. Anyway — let us know what you guys are looking forward to.

I’m actually pretty satisfied at the moment. For the moment I’m looking forward to Uncharted 3 (have to wait for UK delivery), Zelda, Super Mario 3D Land and eventually Mass Effect 3 – but otherwise I’m just happy with the stuff I’ve accumulated over the past year or two that is sitting there, waiting to play

AC Revelations for me. Even though it’s just been released, Infamous Festival of Blood is yet to fit into my game purchasing plan, but I’ll slot it in.

Skyrim has me hyped. There’s a rumor going around about a day 1 mod kit, which should be fantastic.
UMVC3 looks to bring a lot more balance to my favourite fighter (everything else feels too slow in comparison)
Also, I know its not a game, but Nightwing DLC for Arkham Ctiy!!

Most of the games I am looking forward to have been released, so what’s left is pretty much just Zelda and AssRev, neither of which sit up as high as Gears 3 or Dark Souls did.

I must play Skyrim! The rest can all wait. I’ll get BF3 if (when) it eventually turns up on Steam.

And I should probably replay Mass Effect 1 & 2 but if 3 is going to just be on Origin who knows if I’ll bother.

Tough question.

I guess my biggest anticipations are Uncharted 3 and GTA V. They are unhesitatingly day-one purchases.

Max Payne 3 is something I am looking forward to, but with trepidation.

AC: Revelations has been bumped from the top of the list, as has Mass Effect 3, though I will pick them up too, if budget permits.

I’m totally psyched about Skyrim! Although with my current study-load and the amount of assessments I have due; I probably won’t get to play it until early December 🙁

I’m also keen to get MW3 & BF3, I’ve not been able to afford BF3 yet… but, I might use this thread for some advice.

I recently won a copy of Batman: AC on PS3, I have an Xbox360. Now, it is brand-spanking and un-opened. What should I trade it in for:

Batman: AC on X360?
BF3 on X360?
MW3 on X360?

Skyrim on PC?
BF3 on PC?

I’m tossing up between PC BF3 and X360 BF3 as my PC isn’t the best in the world and I really need to sort it out before putting more games on it… but from what I’ve seen the X360 version of BF3 looks pretty ace.

Any advice Kotaku AU?

New hitman game? anyone? Anyone at all?

Skyrim, just to see if they can recapture the “You wont be needing a life we’re you’re going” aspect of Morrowind and avoid the not-totally-game-ruining plastic-three-voice-actor feel of Oblivion.

So just a full length game version of Shivering Isle, I guess.

Problem is I spend half the year starved for games, then November rolls around and I’m spoilt for choice. #Firstworldproblems

I’ve got Arkham City and NBA 2K12 sitting in my checkout from play-asia. I am currently waiting for Skyim to come out, I’ll add this to my checkout and buy them all at the same time. Been using the time between now and then to finish Brotherhood and Bastion. Currently going through Shadow Complex (amaaazzzzing) and will then go back to finish off Vanquish. Hopefully they should keep me satisfied between now and when Skyrim comes out.

This year: Uncharted 3 (tonight!), Skyrim, LotR: War in the North, AC:Revelations, Minecraft, The Journey, Halo CE Anniversary

Next year: Mass Effect 3, Darkness 2, Prototype 2, Bioshock Infinite, Hitman, and every game in my ‘TBC due to another new release’ pile. Still on the fence about GTA-V, as I didn’t really enjoy San Andreas (cue angry outcry from GTA fans).

There are probably others, but those are the ones that spring to mind. Sad thing is that all but Uncharted and Halo will be sitting forlorn in a corner until the start of December… uni work comes first, unfortunately.

Reading through these comments in the hope of someone jogging my memory of a game I want to play… nup, no luck.

Which is a good thing. With expectations set so low there is every chance to be pleasantly surprised by Skyrim and enjoy it. Same can be said for ME3, which I feel somewhat obliged (never a good feeling to have to play a game with I find) to play having invested so much into ME1 and ME2.

Another patch for Football Manager would be nice! PES 2012 for Wii! There we go, some new stuff to anticipate!

  Who “finishes” an elder scrolls game? 😛
  
  Even if someone did all the quests and literally ran out of stuff to do and had maxed out their character… all they have to do is roll a new character and go for a different race/class/playstyle and BLAMO, bunch of new stuff to do/try out. I mean it won’t be a totally different game, but playing as a Red Guard Tank character is nothing at all like playing a sneaky Argonian character or a High Elf Mage character. Then when you’re bored with that you can screw with the goofy AI and get NPCs fighting each other at random 😉

Hmm. I don’t particularly lust for Diablo 3, or Skyrim, or CoD. If I had to pick some, some games which I think I’ll sink a lot of time into, try these…

– StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm (and obviously Legacy of the Void in 2014).
– Star Wars: The Old Republic.
– Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm – Generations.

Those three games will each eat dozens, if not hundreds of my hours.
