Most Anticipated of 2007

A Diablo announcement from Blizzard isn't that exciting considering the company lost the majority of its core developers who created the previous two.

 

Lots of titles but i'm really looking forward to DNF and yes we have another RUNNER.

I wonder how many more lightyears will have to pass until it is released and whether I'll live to see it boot up on my LCD screen I guess the name really does justify the waiting time

 

Mafia 2... and Warren Spector next proyect

 

Nobody anticipating Castle Wolfenstein? What, isn't shooting nazis fun anymore? Hehe..

It is still coming isn't it? Maybe it's the total lack of buzz/news that have made people forget about it or something, I sure hope it's not that far off.

Just gimme that chaingun...


Peace.

 

Bioshock
C&C 3 (I'm a diehard fan)
Spore
Crysis
Half Life 2: Episode 2

 

That might be a good thing. It'd be nice to have a Diablo that was a bit new.

 

The already much mentioned:
Medieval 2:Total War patch + both medieval and rome period mods thereof
Supreme Commander
Spore
Crysis

The not yet mentioned:
Battlestations: Midway
Europa Barbarorum and Rome:Total Realism 7.0 mods for Rome:Total War

 

Although I'm anxious to have UT2k7 and C&C 3...the game I am dying to get my hands on is World In Conflict...

Check out the screenshots and the high-def trailer....can't wait!

 

Ooo! I forgot. While the release date is technically "TBA," Kane and Lynch is definitely up there for me. I really like the concept of it, playing the antihero and all. I know it's been done before with the GTA series, but the main characters in the GTA series' were all generic, history-less gangsters. They actually took the time to mold lives and characteristics for Kane and Lynch.

 

Alan Wake
Bioshock
Wolfenstein 2 (probably not coming in 2007)
UT2007
Hellgate: London
Crysis
Team Fortress 2
Quake Wars

 

I think I'm the only person in the world that cares about STALKER at this point.

 

For me the games I'm most interested in are:

UT 2007
Hellgate : London
and Duke Nukem Forever (if it gets released that is). I do wonder if we'll see it at next year's E3?

 

My list exactly. Though I would add World in Conflict, it looks very promising...

 

Gamespot just reminded me of Tomb Raider Anniversary Edition Crystal Dynamics' modern update to the original Tomb Raider game.

Legend was much more fun than it really had any business being if you haven't played I highly recommend it. The "new" game doesn't seem to have a next gen rendering mode due to the fact that its only coming out for PC, PS2 & PSP. Also the visuals will probably be partially recycled from Legend but I'm cool with that. I've always been a fan of CD's snappy engine and it's performance focused approach to game visuals. Their games generally look very good without resorting to all kinds of jarring modern cheats like extreme LOD micro management & anemic view distances.

So yeah, this one is definitely on my list for '07.

 

I'm adding Turning Point here.

It deserves an honorable mention.


IT'S TIME FOR UPGRADE FOLKS! (and talk with wifey ...)

 

I'd have to say Mask of the Betrayer has vaulted to my top-spot since I loved NWN2. Epic levels, more prestige classes, over 100 new feats and spells, over 20+ new monsters, a new story by Feargus Urquhart, improved party control, more optimizations to the rendering engine (and, boy, does it need as much love as it can get), etc.

 

Without question, I'm dying to play Wolrd in Conflict.....Fortunately, the Beta opens on Monday and I'm hoping to log in some quality time with the game as soon as I manage to get out of work....As a longtime C&C fan, I was really disappointed with C&C 3. Fortunately, World in Conflict appears to be everything I wanted C&C 3 to be and more....From the incredible graphics to the wide variety of models used......it looks amazing.....Oh, and let's not forget that Nuke!......SICK! lol

Bioshock looks great as it puts an interesting twist on the typical FPS......Crysis for obvious reasons.....any UE3-based games for the eye-candy....

Aside from that, the only other game I'm dying to see is Alan Wake. I saw that at GDC behind closed doors running on what was supposedly R600 and was blown away by the environments. At one point, the character is walking down the street (which is covered in leaves) and the wind picked up....I wish you could have seen the leaves blowing in the wind....is was unreal! The demo was all real-time and wasn't scripted....I can't imagine the amount of polish they've been able to put on since then.....Should be a stellar game!

 

After the onslaught of new media about Unreal Tournament 3, I'm definitely getting excited for it now. I even began playing 2004 again.

 

I saw this at that bastard site.... (sorry digi, couldn't resist).
