Lack of Games this Christmas

fawdfawd Member Posts: 367

In my opinion, there is a DEFINATE lack of games this holiday season...  I can remember last year, buying every game on the shelf, but, this year is different.   Sure, there is COD2, and FEAR... but, thats about it.  Here is my "Christmas List" from last year:

Flight Simulator 2004
SimCity 4
Sims 2
Everquest 2
WOW
CounterStrike: Source
Halflife 2
Battle for Middle Earth
Need for Speed Underground

Im sure there are more, those were just the games ontop of my head... Here is this years "Christmas List"

Pirates of the Burning Sea (yes, I know it comes out after christmas)
COD2
FEAR

I was hoping that FLight Simulator 2006 would come out this year... but... it isnt...

Can someone please post some AMAZING games comming out this christmas season?  Because, this year, there is a lack of games...

    Ultimate game:
    Cloudoffires adventure in the world of dental floss land

  • Oblivion would have definately been up there, but last I heard it was pushed back to next year. I think you're right, there's nothing that really drops my jaw this year, certainly alot of good games but nothing that makes me think of my number one most wanted item.

    What do you mean a lack? There are tons of games to buy that you never played before.

    Yea... But... even after all those games you guys listed... none of them are "Jaw Dropping" like last year.

    Maybe next year, they will come out with FS2007, a new C&C, SimCity 5....

    Maybe SOE will release SWG2 or something image

  • EnigmaEnigma Member UncommonPosts: 11,384

    "jaw-dropping" is in the eyes of the beholder. ALL of the games I listed is jaw dropping for someone

    Fear is just as Jaw dropping as HL2......

    and quake 4 is the best multiplayer FPS in terms of variety in gameplay since ut2k4.....

    so a lot of the games are "jaw dropping" in their own right. Just they dont get the superfluous publicity Hl2 got(meaning i think it was overhyped)

    Have you ever played True Crime: Streets of LA and True Crime: NYC? Its sorta like Grand Theft Auto but instead of being the bad guy your a cop on da edge.

    welll, if there's not a lack, there's a shortage

    Yeah.. If your a console gamer at all I would suggest trying the Xbox 360. Even if your not a fan of the old Xbox. Its very fun.. If you think theres a shortage in games to buy then you need to look harder.
