Ok so the holiday season is coming up and like every year big titles are coming out at the second half of the year leading up to the holidays.E3 2010 was held recently and i was unable to go there.so i really am in the dark and don't know very much about upcoming tiles.but like every year i've started saving up money to buy more games in the second half of the year.but since i know very little about upcoming games and many of you attending E3,i thought i'd ask you guys for your recommendations.

any genre is ok but it HAS to be a PC title.
so far i've decided to buy the following games:

Starcraft II

[image loading]


pretty obvious choice

Mafia II

[image loading]


about time this comes out.been waiting for a while for this.

Call of Duty: Black Ops

[image loading]


looks good.hopefully it will be a great game.

Crysis 2

[image loading]


hoping that this game is as good as the first one.

Metal Gear Solid: Rising

[image loading]


so gonna get this since Metal Gear games don't get released for PC often.

Final Fantasy XIV

[image loading]


same reason as the above one.

F3AR

[image loading]


looks super scary.i like scary.

Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit

[image loading]


NFS titles have been crap for the past few years.but this one looks extremely different and in a very good way.

That's all for now.

if you're into the civilization series, Civilization V is coming out in early september as well

as far as your choices go, i think they're all pretty sound, though I would only be interested in sc2, fear, and need for speed. the rest of the games don't really pertain to my tastes

I never understood why people buy so many games. Maybe its because I am cheap but there are so many games that become boring after like 6 hours or less. I prefer games that last a long time like counter strike and brood war because those are the games with depth and offer the most satisfaction - money aside.

I buy games like i buy movies: pay for the good ones and torrent all the shitty (made for a quick buck) ones
North Korea is Best Korea

if you ever try to torrent a game on this shitty net connection then be my guest.but you won't go much far.

on a side note, are you really from North Korea?

While I agree with most of the games, I don't really know how "great" Call of Duty: Black Ops is going to be, considering Treyarch's previous CoD games and the current mind state of Bobby Kotick and company.

Hoping for good things though!

agreed with the statement about Treyarch,they really are crap.but since it's CoD and the storyline is different i decided to give it a try,

WRC 2010

The trailer doesn't show much but FIA said that they wanted a realistic game and the developers told that they did their best to get realistic physics. I basically just hope for Richard Burns Rally physics with better graphics and new tracks

Most of the games in OP are going to be rehashes of previous games and will majorly suck.

I'm hopeful that SW:ToR will be good, and I think Fallout: New Vegas will be good. Other than that, SC2 is the only polished game that will be released this year.

modern pc games except a handful are terrible these days
yeah I went there

I wish Western companies would make good PC games like the golden years instead of rehash shootan game #938402 and a so called "game" which acts more of a measuring tape for a super gaming computer

Although Mafia 2 does look cool

they were selected because the previous game were good and i hope that the next ones will be great as well.but to say that they will suck is clearly an understatement since we haven't played them yet.

after watching the trailer i have to agree that new Vegas really looks good.i just hope i have enough money in the end.

How are you missing Civilization 5 seriously dude, Firaxis is pretty much the only developer still waging a perpetual war against sleep.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution should be fantastic if nothing goes wrong, Portal 2 should be great fun, and there's even apparently a new King's Bounty game being in production (not E3 but still relevant since King's Bounty/HOMM owns). Those are not released soon but they're games you might look out for.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior. If you're in to that... well wait for reviews, but so far - AWH-SUM.
(I love being a sniper... that's why I'm kinda drawn to it *shrug*)
(It has been released though... lol just a couple of days ago. Might as well check it out?)

Crysis WAS bad, mafia was average, fear was good but F3AR isnt even a sequel to that,,,,

Need for speed? Really? And each consecutive CoD gets worse and worse.

FFXIV will crash and burn like WAR and AoC.

I became pretty disappointed with the MGS series, especially 4, but that Rising...even though I dislike Raiden since he became an immortal mother fucker (not to say that I liked him before that anyway) it does look pretty mad.

Brownie points for Fear 3. One of the most underrated franchises there is. It may not have the glitz or glam. But the game plays very well, and is oh so satisfying to play.
