I consider myself a pretty avid gamer, though I do limit myself to Xbox One, 360, and some PC. Honestly mostly the consoles and am waiting for a nice PS4 bundle as my first ever PlayStation purchase.

I wanted to make this thread because I know there are genres I do not push attention to: Fighting, sports, racing (with the exception of Forza Horizon &2), etc.

So I don't often buy games at full price anymore, prefer to get used at Amazon.

Anyways:
Destiny, Sept.
Forza Horizon 2, Sept.
Sunset Overdrive, Oct.
Far Cry 4, Nov.
Halo: MCC, Nov.
Witcher 3, Feb.

Games I'll buy discounted:
Dragon Age Inquisition
Shadows of Mordor
Maybe CoD, first one since BO1.

What am I really missing out on? I don't often but season passes etc either, only ever for BF3/4 and Titanfall. Destiny and Forza might get the treatment and IF any extra content to Witcher 3... Though they like to give it for free so that's nice.

Long winded, sorry. TL;DR? What games are you excited for?

Twitcher, Spanish Inquisition and GTA V (PC release). First allows no reasons, the bar's just that much up there. Second - let's see if they can get series out of the pit they've methodically steered it in with nearly everything after DAOU or else I'm done with it. Third - it's GTA, alright? Also, so I can brag of how much prettier and polished it is than "beta-test" release and keep on with my Master Race agenda *cough* I jest, I jest... Nothing more, really, because if these three prove to be even half of what I'm expecting them to be, it'll take enough time.

Destiny

The Last of Us Remastered

Shadow of Mordor

Evolve

Civ Beyond Earth

Golden Abyss and Unit 13 PS Vita (will get them after next payday hahah i know they're not new)

Generally speaking:

Any game I can grab off Games w/Gold for free (picked up Halo SW, Max, and Guacamelee and haven't played any yet).

Any game I come across for cheap and looks interesting (picked up 60 Second Shooter Prime for like $5 a week or two ago and haven't played it yet).

  • Forza Horizon 2
  • Assassin's Creed Unity - picked up Black Flag recently
  • Far Cry 4
  • The Crew

And the games that I'm still playing through on my 360 :P

Wow Neo that is quite the list you got there....  Nice list of games to keep you busy for awhile...

The game I am most looking forward to is The Last of Us Remastered, despite having already played the SP campaign on the PS3.

 

Other than that, Far Cry 4 (Far Cry 3 was such a surprise of a game I am getting 4 day-one), then a bit further out there is Witcher 3 , Division and The Order I am most looking forward to.

"Thrilled" is such a strong word.

 

I look forward to GTAV for the PC, but that's it.  The last game I played was GTAIV, again on the PC back when it was still pretty new.

 

The one machine I have that could run it (the one I played GTAIV on) is now a full-time VM host, so I'll have to put another one together to play it...so the longer it takes for it to come out, the more I'll be able to put off building that PC.  The next-best PC I have that could handle a decent video card is a Core2Quad machine, but I don't know if the *CPU* will be able to handle it.  Have the system requirements been made public yet?

Halo:MCC is automatic buy for me.

 

No Man's Sky

Ori

Shadow of Mordor

Destiny (though I am very much on the fence when it comes to buying it)  

 

No Man's Sky is this year? Thought it was "2015".

 

And yeah, my list is quite long, and that's not even including surprise stuff that will come along...games make me happy. They make all of us happy i assume, that's why we're here, so why not? Get more! Your list is too short Showan!

    • Honestly that feels even more useless than it did when Win11 was first released. In 2021, the uproar was somewhat justified, but only when comparing how good we've had it since Windows 7. Prior to that, a new Windows release would often require new, or very recent hardware. Windows XP wouldn't run (in any usable way) on hardware released when it's predecessor Win98 was released (let's ignore ME). It was time to shift the goal post, and the way Microsoft did that was actually ok. People have still had another FIVE YEARS of free software support with Windows 10, and those of us who want to have used these tools to bypass the limitations, all while understanding the impacts that may have. Most laptops don't last 5 years (sadly), so now the youngest unsupported hardware is 9 years old, and apparently has another year of support with Windows 10. That's good. Meanwhile, understanding the impacts and limitations, I have my 2013 laptop running Win11 perfectly fine. The thing that's failing on it is the hardware, the 2.5" SATA cable/chip is failing and corrupting the SSDs I put in. Thankfully it has a functional M.2 sata drive that works fine!
    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
