What are you most looking forward to?
Here is a list of some of the big games coming out in May…
— Battleborn
— Uncharted 4
— Doom
— Mirror’s Edge Cataclysm
— Overwatch

I mean damn, that’s quite a line-up.
What excites you most? For me it’s probably Uncharted 4, followed up closely by Mirror’s Edge Cataclysm and Overwatch.

Mirror’s Edge Cataclysm? Following the game closely are you, Mark?
I’m pretty sure Catalyst and Cataclysm mean the same thing, right?
Edit: The number of people taking this question seriously is too damn high.
No, wrong
No.
I almost had Mirror’s Edge Cataplexy… XD
They’re both basically catapults.
No need to catawaul. You’ll render yourself catatonic.
IT’S A CATASTROPHE!
😀
Comes with free skin of Deathwing. Parkour Deathwing for all!!!
Uncharted 4 by a long shot. I’m mad on Warhammer (at least I would be if I was a millionaire) but I’ll wait until all the DLC comes out and buy in a bundle.
Probably Mirror’s Edge, but seeing that skill unlock tree I’m not so sure now.
I share your concern, but think of the beautiful City of Glass, waiting to be explored….mmmm hmmm.
Fire Emblem Fates is coming for us in Aus as well…
Yep Fire Emblem is my most anticipated.
I’m cautious about Uncharted since I had real problems with U3.
And Star Fox Zero/Guard this month also looks good.
This and Tree of Savior going F2P, I hope.
none, but I’ll be getting uncharted 4.
Since I always need to be different, my list is currently:
– Ray Gigant
– Shadow Complex Remastered on PS4
– The Nioh Demo
– Valkyria Chronicles Remastered
– Fire Emblem: Fates
– TMNT: Mutants in Manhattan
Valkyria Chronicles gets no where near enough love. That game is so great I might actually purchase it for a 3rd time… 😛
Oh yeah, likely to be a day one purchase for me. Now if only someone would bring 2 & 3 to the PS4…
This! I tried so hard to play it on PSP but those controls were garbage…
I’m hoping we get the Azure Revolution battle demo as well like the Japanese did.
Oh yeah TMNT. Guess I do care about something else after all 😛
Just two games for me:
– Uncharted 4
– Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst.
With the number of games coming out in May it might very well be Mirror’s Edge: Catafalque.
That is an incredibly obscure word and I applaud you because it’s an excellent one.
I concur with Red, I have learn’t my new thing for the day so thanks for that @zambayoshi!
Sometimes I really wonder if Publishers want a game to fail when this sort of thing happens. I cant see how Mirror’s Edge has anywhere near the hype base that Overwatch etc and EA expects it to do well? Would have been better as a January/June release I would have thought.
When they set the May release date (it was delayed from March I believe) there was a lot more air. Really really unfortunate that so much stuff was also scheduled/rescheduled (Uncharted 4 was the big one) for May.
Wasn’t it originally supposed to be a January release as well? Could have sworn it was delayed a couple of times. Also, March/May are typically big months most years which I they should have anticipated but who knows how EA thinks… 😛
I’m a veritable Mirror’s Edge: Catalog of words 😉
I wonder if it will be resigned to the Mirror’s Edge: Catacombs?
Join the Australian Defence Force. You’ll hear no end of the word Catafalque, followed by the word party, followed by wishing you weren’t part of a Catafalque Party.
What is May? Why does May matter? Star Fox is happening in April 😛
Honestly can’t think of any other release this year that I care about at all. Other than Federation Force actually.
Oh man, are we excited because someone is actually bringing Star Fox to a platform that people actually own and use?! Badass! I’m glad they finally realized they can do so much better than chaining themselves to inferior Nintendo platforms only. 😉
Yes, all you peasants can get your Star Fox fix on Youtube now 😛
…Damn you, Gooky. Damn you.
Overwatch all the way. Had a chance to play on the last stress test weekend and once it’s released i can’t see myself playing much else. It was great. Also checked out the Doom beta, wasn’t impressed at all sadly, but it was only the multi. I’m hoping the SP campaign will be decent, and if snapmap is any good there could be alot of replayability there.
StellarisCRUSADER KINGS IN SPAAAAAAAAAAAACEMirror’s Edge Catoblepas
Uncharted 4
That’s some gooooooooood gaming. So I guess I’m looking forward to not having any money left.
Is Stellaris really sort of like CK2 in space? If so I suddenly am super excited about a game in may.
It’s not dynasty focused, and starts 4Xish before expanding, but it’s a Paradox Grand Strategy Game so there’s some DNA there
I quite like the other Paradox grand strategy games not just CK2.
If the reviews are good I will have to pick it up.
Wow, your list exactly mirrors my own! Glad to see I’m not alone! 😀
I’ve only recently got on board with Stellaris, and I absolutely cannot wait untili it launches. Going to be a busy couple of days with UC4 as well. Tell my wife I love her!
Paradox taking on space 4X has me super excited. I’ve always loved the idea of big 4X games, but I’ve never really gotten into them; CKII, on the other hand, is amazing.
As so long as I can marry off my lunatic possessed genius granddaughter that has the highest intrigue in the known world at age 15 into a rival faction and watch her destroy it from the inside, I’ll be happy.
CK2: Because Eugenics is OK if it’s medieval!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Stellaris has me so goddamn pumped. It’s the perfect level of accessibility for me to get into Paradox Grand Strategy games. Can’t wait ^_^
ALL HAIL THE BLORG!
No more Onlywatch
June is where it’s at for me, purely for Zero Time Dilemma.
I guess Uncharted 4 looks cool though…
Uncharted 4 is top of the list for me.
After that, probably Mirror’s Edge Catalysm or Cataclyst or whatever the hell it’s called.
Then perhaps I’ll finally get around to Dark Souls 3.
It’s Mirror’s Edge: Catachresis (at least in this article).
Mirror’s Edge: Catheterise?
Ewww!
😛
You sure as hell wouldn’t be doing all that running and jumping and rolling, would you? 😛
Fire Emblem, Uncharted 4 and Mirrors Edge. Though I probably won’t pick up any of them as I have so many games to play already.
Playing 50 more hours of Dark Souls 3. Is that wrong?
trackmania VR support
Is it wrong to say none? I can’t think of any game being released in the rest of this year that I’m looking forward to. It’s possible that I’ve forgotten some release dates but in that case was I really looking forward to them…?
Cataclysmic fail! 😛
It’s a Mirror’s Edge: Catastrophe!
Uncharted 4 and Total War: Warhammer
DOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!
FPS is my favourite genre. And after Shadow Warrior my faith in fps remakes and reimaginings is high and it looks fun
Y’know what, I’m looking forward to catching up on some old games.
Battleborn – was keen until I played the beta. 8 missions, repeat until death. I expected a lot more from Borderlands creator. The two beta missions took me 60 mins each solo, not looking for an 8 hour game. I know what they were trying to do, but they’ve lost it, and they’ve lost me.
Doom – Yeah, no. Its not Doom without campaign co-op.
I’m thinking real hard about Divinity Original Sin right about now. 60% off on the Bone this week. That’ll keep me going for most of May.
Pre-ordered Battleborn after the second beta, with the digital sharing looking forward to some coop with the missus and stupid Borderlands style humor in this one!
None of them. I’ll grab Uncharted 4 but not very excited to play it after getting burned pretty hard by how mediocre and poorly made Uncharted 3’s gameplay was.
Totally Fire Emblem Fates. God damn been waiting over a year for this.
That being said, I can see myself playing Stories: The Path of Destinies, Stardew Valley and Hyperlight Drifter well into May at this stage. So many good games this year, so many of which are “indie”! Loving it.
Only 1 game on that list is even remotely interesting to me, and that’s Uncharted. (Pretty excited) Though I’m even more excited for Starfox and Ratchet & Clank this week!
Overwatch!
Will probably check out Warhammer as well.
uncharted 4, overwatch and warhammer. i have a feeling warhammer will suck though and i’m still surprised it isn’t age of sigmar. GW have killed off the warhammer world and squatted armies recently.
Dark Souls 3 NG, Uncharted looks amazing
Super hype for Stellari and, Fire Emblem Fates. Over watch looked kinda cool too so I think I might try that too.
Super excited about both Uncharted 4 and Overwatch, not sure I’ll actually have the time to sit down and play through Uncharted until June though so Overwatch is probably on top of my list atm.
Well i’ve been playing DS3 since yesterday and having a ball (despite some initial crashing issues).
Heck, the last game i bought this close to release was the Sims 3 at full price, although i know i will be getting full price value from this game for sure =)
My brother is getting Warhammer Total War so i’m excited to see what he thinks of it. Battleborn also looks quite promising and i will probably pick up Doom when it’s on sale forever down the track.
Oh and of course MIrror’s Edge, the first one was pretty cool but i still haven’t gotten around to completing it… I have it on 360 and PC haha
I’d say by May I’ll be most of the way through platinum’ing Dark Souls 3
I’ll be picking up my PS4 on May 4th and am keen for Uncharted 4 but I’ll be playing through the others first.
June’s my month. Mainly coz I’m excited for Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens and No Man’s Sky.
That’s some nice stuff. Warhammer, Mirror’s Edge, Doom… all pretty much sure things. I’m actually favourably inclined towards Homefront, too. Seems to tap heavily into the UbisoftGame(tm) formula.
Uncharted for me. Maybe Doom, if the campaign reviews ok. I don’t think I’m up for the multiplayer even if they do nail the feeling of old school arena shooters (something beta testers indicated is not the case).
Uncharted and battleborn!!! Overwatch misses out on my money, couldn’t try beta so…….besides I really enjoyed the battleborn beta despite the lag on occasion
There’s an open beta for Overwatch starting May 5th, so give it a go then. Having played in the last beta stress weekend I can tell you it already has my money and is probably well worth yours.
Excellent thanks for the heads up, I’ll have a go
UC4, going to be a ripper from the looks of it.
Literally nothing worthwhile for me next month.
So definitely Uncharted 4, but having just spent $4k on a new computer this morning, I believe I can now look forward to Overwatch and Total Warhammer.
Dark Souls III will do me till late year though news just got that SuperHot releases on Xbone May 3 – that could get my attention
I’ve never heard of this Doom thing – I reckon Gal Gun: Double Peace will blow it out of the water.
(If you haven’t heard of it… you may want to look it up, although chances are you won’t want to play it after reading about it.)
Of the list, most are FPSes and so not really interesting to me. I’ll probably buy Valkyria Chronicles again though.
Uncharted 4 is mandatory, the rest will have to wait.
Only care about Mirrors Edge: Catatonic and Overwatch, but not enough about either of them to break my rule of permanent tight-arse-edness that dictates I will never buy a game that isn’t on sale unless it is A) under $20 (at which point I’ll probably wait for a sale anyway) B) an indie title I want to support or C) a Nintendo game, because those never go down in price. So I will be picking up Fire Emblem: Fatalistic around launch.
Thanks for the typo / mistake Mark, it kind of made my day.
