Games we are looking forward to in 2014


Recommended Posts

Already bought, salivating in anticipation:

Pillars of Eternity, by far the game I'm most excited for since Starcraft 2.

 

Probably going to buy:

Thief. I just love that series, been waiting for a new installement since Deadly Shadows. Definitely buying and playing it unless it gets destroyed in reviews.

Dark Souls 2 - loved the art style of the first, but haven't actually played it that much. I'll probably give this one a try.

 

Finally, not planning to buy but still mildly curious about:

The Witcher 3 - tried both 1 and 2, never really got into them; I found the story confusing in the first, and too political in the second. Still, it's hard not to be impressed by the scope the 3rd game seems to be aiming for.

Dragon Age: Inquisition: not expecting much from it really, but I'm curious to see how it turns out.

 

All on PC of course.

PC:

Witcher 3

Warmachine Tactics

Divinity: Original Sin

Predestination

Limit Theory

Sui Generis

Pillars of Eternity

Wasteland 2

 

PS4:

Infamous: Second Son

Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition (chose over PC for in-room co-op and no always on internet requirement)

NHL 15

Rock Band 4

Witcher 3

Final Fantasy Lightning Returns

Atelier Escha & Logy

Watch Dogs

The next Ar Tonelico Game

Kingdom Hearts 3

 

Not sure if it will come out this year

Wii U's Monolith "X" game

*Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six. Wow can't believe they are actually doing a remake of this classic FPS. I loved this game and hope they don't mess it up. 

Woah woah weres the source for this?!!  Which RS?  My boy Ding lives to fight again!  Oh god they'll make it for console I bet. :(

 

As for me:

> Routine (http://www.routinegame.com/)  Sadly their developers aren't talking so not looking good atm

> GTAV PC

> Half-Life 3 :P

> South Park Stick of Truth

> Trespassing (http://trespassingpetrolia.com/)

There isn't a remake AFAIK. The only RS announced is Patriots and it has been delayed and rebooted at least once during the course of development.

Diablo 3 Expansion. I think that the removal of the AH, rebalancing of item drops, new class, new act, and skill points at the top level should make the game quite a bit better.  Blizzard seems to be at least trying to address what players concerns are. 

 

I was looking forward to Elder Scrolls Online, but I'm less confident about that one being a hit now.

 

The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth

    • If they don't sell enough of the 1st gen then there won't be a 2nd gen
    • Epic fail, should've added an eSata port on the back, also if the memory/NVME are soldered then they're hardly gonna sell any, first thing most people do with their Steamdeck is, or used to be, replacing the NVME with a 2TB one.
    • GEEKOM kicks off Prime Day Sale with discounts up to 30% on Intel and AMD mini PCs by Steven Parker GEEKOM has kicked off its Prime Day Sale letting you save up to 30% on mini PCs in every price class. Below we are sharing a few highlights from the A series of AMD mini PCs, along with an Intel variant with pretty beefy specs. We start off with the very affordable GEEKOM A5 in the AMD Ryzen 5 7430U, 16GB RAM, and 512GB NVMe SSD configuration, with some of its highlighted specs listed below: Operating System: Windows 11 Pro CPU Model: AMD Ryzen 5 7430U CPU Speed: 3.5 GHz Cache Size: 16 MB Graphics: Integrated AMD Radeon Vega 7 Graphics Memory: 16 GB 3200 MT/s DDR4 Copilot+ PC: No SSD: 512 GB Connectivity: Bluetooth 5.2 + WiFi 6E I never got the chance to review this variant, but here is how GEEKOM describes it: GEEKOM A5 [Ryzen 5 7430U, 16GB+512GB] for $371 —was $439 (15% off) Next up is the GEEKOM A6 in the AMD Ryzen 7 6800H, 16GB DDR5 RAM, with a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD configuration, with the below highlights: Operating System: Windows 11 Pro CPU Model: AMD Ryzen 7 6800H CPU Speed: 4.7 GHz Cache Size: 16 MB Graphics: Integrated AMD Radeon 680M Memory: 16 GB 4800 MT/s DDR5 Copilot+ PC: No SSD: 1 TB Connectivity: Bluetooth 5.2 + WiFi 6E I gave the A6 high marks in my dedicated review from just over a year ago; GEEKOM has this to say about this compact Mini PC: GEEKOM A6 [Ryzen 7 6800H, 16GB+1TB] for $524 —was $649 (19% off) Next up is the MAX variant of A-series mini PCs in the Prime Day Sale.

GEEKOM A7 MAX [Ryzen 9 7940HS, 16GB+1TB] for $594 —was $699 (15% off) Next we have another in the MAX series of A mini PC.

Be sure to check out both reviews before dropping this kind of money on it, you won't be sorry! I praised it for its excellent NPU (AI) performance and premium all-metal build, as such it is more than capable of keeping up with today's offerings of Mini PC on the market.

    • Nice to see! Especially now with Arm64 VMs getting more popular and sometimes even cheaper than traditional x86 ones in datacenters.
