Title: What games are we looking forward to in 2011?
Post by: Prpl_Mage on January 04, 2011, 02:06:55 AM
Personally I'm looking forward to Diablo 3 and Pkmn Black / White.

Also, I hope that FFXIII versus proves to be better than it's counterpart.

What about you guys? 2010 is over and 2011 has begun.

The fact that it's not using the Oblivion engine is, in my opinion, a big plus.
I loved that game to death, but goddamn the technology sucked.

Considering when they made Oblivion they turned Cyrodill from tropical rainforest with roman cities to generic high fantasy, I'm expecting a similar treatment for Skyrim.
Title: Re: What games are we looking forward to in 2011?

I kind of doubt that they'd turn Skyrim into, say, a pine forest.
I mean, the entire point of the Nords is that they live in the snow.

I'm personally expecting Bloodmoon+.
Which I can live with, as I actually liked exploring Solstheim.

The fact that Bethesda is making the engine themselves is a big concern. Have you seen how buggy their games are? They didn't even need to program the engine! And on top of that, they blame the engine for gameplay limitations that other studios were magically able to overcome while using the same engine! Basically, they better be hiring some awesome new programmers or something. Get Carmack on the phone, now that your parent company owns id, and have him genius up something for you guys.

Why can't they just use id Tech 5? Honestly?

Oblivion is pretty stable... On a high-end computer.

I think Bethedsa does learn a bit from user feedback; quite a few of the features in Oblivion were included because of what people said about Morrowind. However, it is quite true that making bug-free games is not their strong point. That, and avoiding the uncanny valley. But hell, I don't think that's going to stop it from being pretty good.

Ico/Shadow of the Colossus HD

Pokemon Black (my brother is getting White and honestly my interest and disinterest are permanently on a teeter totter at this point)
and about 90% of what's to be released along with the 3DS.

Incidentally, discovered that reservations at Gamestop for the 3DS are on.  Took care of that, in addition to the games above.

Post by: HobomasterXXX on January 28, 2011, 02:55:33 AM
It's a handheld. Even the 3DS doesn't have proper analogs, let alone 2. it's pretty significant. Also it'll probably have PS2 backwards compatability eventually, like the PSP had PS1 games

Dude, we've had the same PS2 controller since the PS2 came out.
The only thing that's shown any sign of breaking is the wire.
If you're breaking your analog sticks, you're doing it wrong.

If Sony decides to launch any system with PS2 backwards ability I'm getting it. So sick of borrowing my buddy's PS2 since mine broke. EU PS3 don't have the PS1 and PS2 playability, it sucks. I'd love to play some Kingdom hearts, dark cloud, soul calibur, tekken or FFx and x2-
Title: Re: What games are we looking forward to in 2011?
Post by: oooog on January 28, 2011, 11:19:23 PM
The 3DS still impresses me, albeit when I pre-ordered the system I was under the impression that many of the games used to show off the system would be released alongside it.  I still need to replace my DS, as it would seem it is about to break.  Another story for another day.

No comment on the PSP2/NGP just yet.  Fantastic graphics and will probably cost upwards around $450.  Hasn't exactly impressed just yet, just like the PSP and the PS3 when they first came out.  But look at me now, I have both.

I sort of want to see Microsoft release a handheld.  Portable Fable.  **** would be so cash.
Title: Re: What games are we looking forward to in 2011?
Post by: HobomasterXXX on January 29, 2011, 04:09:23 AM
I really don't want Microsoft to touch the handheld market. Nothing against their games, but their policies on DLC, online and generally everything are something I'd rather keep fenced into the console market.

Post by: SaiKar on February 04, 2011, 06:55:13 PM
I've broken a lot of sticks on computer controllers too. And honestly it's not that big of a deal to me if it's an analog stick or a D pad. Chances are the game is going to control about the same either way.

3DS looks so so sweet. So sweet. But I really want to see one in person at a game store before I buy one, just to make sure I'm right about it being so sweet.

It really doesn't feel too terribly altered for consoles. It's streamlined like hell, but that's mostly a good thing.

Unless you meant something other than Crysis 2...
Title: Re: What games are we looking forward to in 2011?
Post by: HobomasterXXX on February 05, 2011, 03:51:08 AM
The game looks the same, if not worse than the original game, they released the demo exclusively to consoles (which kinda shows where their loyalties lie), and the whole setting was likely chosen purely because rendering a world like Crysis' on a console without it looking like *** would be pretty hard.
Title: Re: What games are we looking forward to in 2011?
Post by: Archem on February 05, 2011, 04:30:37 AM
It looks the same (unless you're looking at the console version), it's released on the Xbox because of Microsoft's cash and because they're trying to let the big shooter crowd know that a game that they'd like will be on consoles, and it's in NYC because they wanted it there, not because they couldn't make a massive world that looks good on consoles (see Far Cry 2, or any other game with a large world).

Better luck in round two.

I am so stone age right now. I have a PS2, an N64 and a GBA...

I wish I had the money to get a Wii, and an Xbox 360. I honestly have no real desire to get a PS3, since the games I like for it are mostly on the Xbox anyways.

Gonna have to get a DS. I don't have any form of DS right now, so that's a definite thing to get. Still gonna keep the GBA though, I hate that the DS doesn't have backwards compatibility past the GBA, and the newer DS don't even have that.

Heroes (of might and magic) 6, seem to follow 5's footsteps. Might be good.

Diablo 3 (can't remember if I even mentioned it), 5 classes seems a bit low but I hope they'll make the rest of te game awesome.

Dissidia 2, whenever that **** reaches Europe. Can't deny that I like this milked game living on its' fanbase.

Parasite Eve / 3rd birthday - This might just be good as far as I'm concerned. Still miss playing PE2, great game, great game.

KH Recoded - no idea if this is worth getting, seems like Enix is doing what they can to avoid giving us the next part of the series.
Between 1 and 2 - Chain of memories. Now - Chain of memories PS2 remake , 365 / 2 days, Birth by sleep and Recoded.

FFXIII Vs and 2 I guess. They might just be better than XIII which was overall a good game but nothing special.

The ones I'm looking forward to the most are the Ocarina of Time remake for the 3DS and LoZ: Skyward Sword for the Wii, probably because I don't own a PS3 or an Xbox 360 yet...Hey, I'm working on it. >.>

I might also get suckered into buying one of the new Pokemon games, though I haven't decided which one I'm getting yet. It's like a guilty indulgence for me. Truth be told, I'm not as interested in keeping up with the new games as I used to be. It probably has something to do with the fact that I have an ever-growing pile of old PSX/PS2 games that I still haven't finished, yet want to.

Well according to Activision's press release or whatever, no Blizzard products are coming this year, but two are coming next year. Also, speaking of that press release, Guitar Hero is now dead and buried.

As are the rest of the "Blank Hero" games, Tony Hawk games, and the attempt to reboot True Crime. There may be others, I can't remember. The fun part is, Activision isn't doing something sensible like ending their rape of a series or three mercifully and giving the dev teams something new to run into the ground. They're killing the studios in-charge of the now defunct games.

Yay, Activision.

Most do, actually, but only because they're owned by a larger company that are concerned about their bottom line. Blizzard is big enough that they can wait forever, but with pressure from the Activision side of the formula, they may actually have an incentive to wrap it up. Basically, don't crush my dreams.

All I'm looking forward to is Duke Nukem Forever and Deus Ex Human Revolution, still. DNF will probably be way too streamlined and shitty (I really hope not but I'm a realist). Human Revolution is actually looking like a solid entry into the series, much better than Invisible War was. Oh and The Witcher 2 looks pretty rad.

I'm certain they'll drop a PSP2 monster Hunter. The sales were insane for the new one... There's a small chance it'll come out on PS3 though because the only reason Tri didn't come out on PS3 was because the cost of making a PS3 game was too high BUT that's changed.... apparently.

I've played it before on pc and it's a really fun game but out of no where capcom decoded to ban me.... Actually I think they just banned all Americans lol but I do hope the game does drop on PSP2 I spent like 200 hours with 4 friends on the last one.
