What Game are you Most Anticipating

PunkMonk

Doesn't have to be in Q2, Q3, or any quarter. Doesn't have to be in this year. Hell, doesn't have to come out next year. Doesn't have to be a big media hog game, can be an underdog, low budget. Doesn't matter. Just simply, what game do you most anticipate?

 

I know most of the choices are the mainstream games, because well, they're main stream and it's more convientent. If your game doesn't apply, put 'other.'

 

If your game is in the 'other' category, please post it.

Spore. Hands down.



I mean, just look at this and tell me it isn't awesome. XD

I am looking forward to many of the games you listed.  Since I could only choose one I chose Warhammer.



The cool thing is there are a ton of games that look like they will be fun:



WAR

AoC

Huxley

Tabula Rasa

Cronicles of Spellborne

Exteel

Fury

Darkfall

Gods and Heroes

Pirates of the Buring Sea



Now we need to get someone working on a MMO version of Mechwarrior.  If the makers of Eve did Mechwarrior I would gasm!

Jjaybrown

Fable 2, new SWG and Forza 2

pingo

Guild Wars 2 and GW: Eye of the North and Age of Conan being the top of my list, I would do anything for a better SWG. Seriously...

 

As for other games... Metal Gear Solid 4, Final Fantasy 13... Does two are enough to drop 600 for a ps3. MGS4 is enough alone...

 

 

MiNaAu

GW 2!!!

Akeys

Darkfall

QSatu

Voted other.

I'm waiting for GW2, the Longest Journey mmo. From the list I'm most interested in AoC and TCoS.

Upload

Fable 2, Guild Wars: Eye of the North, Guild Wars 2, Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar, Frontier 1859. That's my list.

xAlrythx

Aion, because it has massive potential.

Kyerna

Other: even tho AoC got me interested, the one I most anticipate would have to be Fallen Earth.

Gameloading

Aion, Granado Espada, Ragnarok 2, WAR, Age of Conan, Pirates of the burning sea, there are so many games I'm looking forward to, its hard to pick just one of them

busdriver

Darkfall, naturally. I guess I still have hopes for WAR, so that's number two for me.

xxthecorexx

i voted other. right now i'm following AoC, tCoS, Aion, and of course always hoping that something gets done with SWG, but the game that shows MOST of what i'm looking for in a mmo would be Fallen Earth.

Devildog1

I voted other cause I'm waitin for Stargate Worlds to come out but A new Star Wars game is always welcome, AoC looks great, Aion, TCoS, Darkfall, LoTRo, Fallen Earth. These all lokk very promising.

rufusangus

Other. Im waiting for RO2, will determine whether or not i quit the MMO genre all together.



I look at your list and i see:



Wannabe WoW 1

Wannabe WoW 2 roman version

Wannabe WoW 3

..etc



Im so sick of WoW and the companies trying to copy it im about ready to admit that the MMORPG genre has totally gone down the toilet. There are a very few select upcoming games that are going to attempt to break the mold, but the most important question is yet to be answered; Will they actually end up with a respectable player base, or will they just get crushed under foot by the generic blizzard giant.



I figure it as, EQ1 came out in 1999, WoW is basically an easier, nicer looking "MMO for dummies" version of EQ1; WoW came out in 2004. So, im thinking that around 2009 the "new to MMO's" crowd WoW's mass marketing brought in will start getting bored of what we did all those years ago, and MMO's will start evolving again from where they left off.



Like it or not, WoW set back the entire MMO genre by several years because it sold so many copies to players that were new to MMO's. Since they are in the majority now, and didn't get to play classics like EQ1, its all new to them, and we have to wait for them to get bored before any company makes a hard, serious attempt to break the generic, cut and paste formula WoW has set forth.



Marketing and bottom line are the determining factors in our MMO market now, not quality or originality (VG cough). Why im waiting for RO2, Korea has its own market, and as far as games are concerned, is in its own little world. It  will probably have a nasty grind and be really hard to get gear, but at the very least, it wont be like playing WoW all over again with diffrent graphics.  God bless America, the country ran by corporations that pounce like hungry wolves whenever their competitors release something that sells well.

QSatu

I think you overreact.. Just b/c some of those games are in a fantasy setting it doesn't mean they want to be WoW >.> before  you say something.. read about all those games.

I don't understand it..  ppl now think that every single game in the world  is a wow rip off o_O

CaesarsGhost

Pirates of the Burning Sea

Guild Wars 2



...and on a lesser extent:

Chronicles of Spellborn

Age of Conan

Dookz

GW 2

Rollotamasi

Fallen Earth.

PunkMonk

As much as it was needed, I think it was unnessisary that I put "a better SWG."

 

Even though SWG did move down a few knotches from the NGE, I still play it and have for going on 3 years.

whitedelight

Anything dealing with Ages or Conans.

felspar

 Darkfall, WAR, Aoc

Barge

Warhammer, Age of Conan, and Fury are the games I can't wait to see.

I 'm not even sub'd to a MMO right now, nothing makes me want to play.

Mwahaha

I'm waiting on Darkfall.  Hopefully it comes out this decade.

I cant wait to Play Huxley, finally a game where my skills are actually useful.
