-Red Alert 3 (already registered for the Beta this fall)-Tiberium (Um...driving a Behemoth, yes please)-Saints Row 2 (FULL single player content available for online coop, none of the absolute CRAP multi player garbage we got with the first one. Should be a lot of fun for crazy screwing around with friends online.)-Fable 2 (maybe this one will be what the first should have been)-Fallout 3 (hopefully it lives up to the name)-Borderlands (looks to be exactly my kind of RPG)-Star Wars: Force Unleashed (hoping it doesn't suck as bad as all the previous star wars 3rd person games)-Aliens: Colonial Marines (Sulacco!!!)-StarCraft II (En taro Tassadar!)

god, i almost forgot one of my most anticipated games ever, Red Faction: Guerrilla i've been waiting for this game since the epic failure that was red faction 2. RF3 is gonna bring destructible environments to a whole new level, much like Red Faction's geomod system changed the way we saw destructible environments back in the earlier days of the ps2.

You wont hear it from me, I mentioned Spore in my post. It's got to be one of the most original games I have seen in years. I've been watching it since 2006 through all the delays and rumor of canceling but it looks like it will finally be here this year.

I forgot about Spore and RF3.

I actually liked RF2 a lot. But it was one of those "might as well have had another title" games. The setting and atmosphere of the original were sorely missed in the sequel. Hopefully RF3 brings them back.

Man, I completely forgot about Prototype, too.

That one looked pretty interesting a while back when I first read about it. Definitely another that I hope turns out well. I'd hate to see such a good idea go to waste.

rf3 will be on mars again, and it will be 50 years after the revolution. as far as i've read, the earth defense force that showed up at the end of the first one has taken control of mars and is ruling in much the same manner as the ultor (think thats right?) mining company was. its no longer a first person shooter, theyre switching to a 3rd person view. you dont have to have an environment suit to move around on the surface anymore, as mars is now terraformed enough. the actions of your character can inspire the other citizens to take arms against the EDF and join the revolution. it looks like this game is going to be everything the second one should have been, and much much more. i can only hope that the multiplayer will be just as addictive as the first one, because i put alot of hours with friends on that game :D

I was beat to the Duke Nukem Forever joke

Top of my list right now are:Metal Gear Solid 4GTA IVSporeStarCraft II (We require more pylons!)

And to an extent FF13. The series has been a constant let down past 8 (I'm one of the few people in the world that liked 8), and some of the concepts I've seen for 13 make it look at least a bit fun to play. I'm just worried that they'll kill it with another aweful script and horrendous english voice acting.

One day you will learn. Again Bart gets a point and you lose. I may or may not be keeping score in my head.

1-7 were amazing. God thought about destroying those games because he wanted to remain the only perfect thing in life. 8 was ok. I havent played through all of 9, but its not CLOSE to as good as the earlier games. 10 and 10.2 sucked ***, 11 was probably the worst MMORPG I have ever played, and 12 was great and on the right path again.

ah, dont be so sure about that lol, 8 is my favorite FF of all that i've played. i tried 7 but never could get past the train right after the slums, it just didnt hook me. 10 was great imo, havent had the chance to play 12, but i've heard only good things about it. 13 looks promising

My main issue with 9 is that it really truely felt like a filler game. The story was pretty bla and felt forced. The characters weren't very engaging. And the minigame felt a little recycled. Again, these are my opinions, so take em as you like. If you like 9, that's good for you. I just happened to not.

10 was a little better than 9, but I had the unfortunate situation of only playing about half of it in Japanese at a time I knew very limited Japanese. However, the english voice cast killed the game for me. Every time one of them would speak, it was as if a portion of my soul was being devoured by a swarm of deep crows. DEEP CROWS! The Japanese cast just did such a superb job, and as it seems to be with most english dubs, I felt a little less whole inside. Also, the story was mediocre and non-engaging. I got to Mt Gigazette or hoewever you spell it, and got bored with the game and stopped playing. I also sold my old PS2 at the time so I never had anyway to really finish it, if I had even had the drive.

I never played 11, but from watching my friends' frustration over it, I would never play it.

12 had some good things going for it, but again the story just didn't engage me very well. I got to the sand area a few levels too early and the boss easily dispatched me, and then I had to return the game (rented). I never felt the drive to re-rent it or borrow it from any of my friends.

I also won't fully get into my distaste for the obsurdly obnoxious micro-managing and level planning of the sphere system. While it makes for neat progression paths, it's too much to deal with IMO. It lends some nice options to end game, but unless you plan things out decently ahead of time, you'll find your characters greatly lacking in mid-game. 12 had a nicer, refined version of the system, but I still hated spending all that time to set up a toon's abilities. On a different note, and completely contradictory to what I just said, I LOVED the job system from 5/Tactics. It was a bit complicated at times, but allowed some cool ability pairings and specializations.

Of course, I still feel the epitomy of final fantasies was 6. Best. Damn. Story. Ever. Period. Exclamation.
