Even for the Christmas season that's a huge list of anticipated titles. Honestly, it's just bad marketing grouping them together like that...


It's actually excellent marketing. Competing with each other for sales, because every single company wants a slice of the Christmas pie.

You'll notice that if everyone takes a slice of that Christmas pie the slices tend to be very small. dry.gif Not everyone can afford to buy multiple games. It results in smaller sales for each individual game. I do find it amusing that it's their own greed that prevents them from higher sales though.

Starhawk looks great. I never played Warhawk though. How was it ?

Warhawk was pretty awesome.

Starhawk looks like it'll be a day one purchase for me. Can't wait to get some decent dogfights going on with the starships. Although I wish more games like that are made (poor Battlefront 3) and allows you to take fights into space.

So, Firefly+Warhawk+Red Faction+Transformers=Starhawk, at least from my point of view. Sounds interesting so far.... I liked Warhawk, but I never did master how to fly. The instant-building system might mitigate my annoyance of having heavily armored vehicles such as a tank or a mech in a multiplayer game.

If you like playing shooters on the PC, Steam have a great deal on right now.

Both Serious Sam HD remakes are on sale for $7.49 (£5.49), or you can get them and both original games for $9.99.

Joystiq: 75% off Serious Sam games on Steam.

Downloading the HD package right now. It's been a long time since I played a FPS on the PC, especially an OTT one. biggrin.gif

Yeaaaaaaaaah... that might happen for North America, but I'm not holding my breath.

Right now that's only available in Asia. Unless anyone wants to pay import fees?

It's not that bad having a same-sex option. Like DA2, just don't choose the Heart option.... Well, they better have a 'Heart' option instead of making us accidentally romance a character....

Careful Cloud, there's been reports of older generation PS3s and 360s overheating from playing LA Noire.

Of course, that goes for everyone with this game too. The comments from the link I posted below indicates that 360s are having the same problems.

Alright. I'm prepped for my E3 dosage this year.

I'm ready for MW3, RE6, RE: ORC......

Forget it, I want to see pretty much every heavy hitter for the next year and year after... where's Rockstar? No GTA V Announcement?

The only game I don't care about is the new Devil May Cry. Capcom just murdered that series, unless E3 shows me something other than Twilight Dante.
