Sweet deal. I salute you, sir, for your charity.
I just find that even if I had the money to buy so many games, I'd never have a chance to play all of them. I'm on the last mission of GTA4, finally.
lucky bastage.
Mine thinks I'm a psycho with this hobby
no chance of conversion either... I tried XBLA and story driven games and had to quit my CoD4/Halo 3 online addiction. the only thing remotely interesting to her was scene it.
My brother's girlfriend likes to watch him play video games. She likes to be a bit of a back seat driver, but that's cool for them because they both enjoy it.
Happily my girlfriend actually joins in on some games, she was playing GTAIV with me, her doing most of the driving around (and trying some shooting) with me doing most of the missions. We did it in about 40 hours also.
She also likes some of the PSN games and even completed Uncharted (on easy, but still)

hm... looks like the Chronicles of Riddick redux will be coming soon. Sounds likely that it will be an '08 release.

These are games I allready know i'm going to buy. After E3 I will probably add some more.
Resistance 2
LittleBigPlanet
Battlefield Bad Company
Motorstorm 2
Metal gear solid 4
Disgaea 3 (when ever its released in europe.)
No so many as I would normally buy, but i'll spend a lot of time playing Resistance 2 and probably LittleBigPlanet. I allready spend some money on my HD tv and soon on a decent 7.1 surround sound system so this wont be a cheap year for me. But playing games has never been better.

Freak'n Big Panda
Regular
Mass Effect
Shin Megami Tensei 1 (SNES game... released 1992 XD)
Shin Megami Tensei 2 (possibly... depends how much I enjoy the 1st one)
Fallout 3
MGS4
GT5 Prolouge (still need to beat this)
The Darkness (seems like a good FPS, done by the same guys that did riddick)
Possibly the new riddick but I alrdy beat the first one so I might not.

Are there any sites with updated release dates following all of the E3 announcements? IGN and PALGN (Aussie gaming site) both seem to have lots as tentative that were confirmed. I'd like to update my calendar, since it seems to be a crazy gaming year again. So many RPGs this year!
I am seriously behind on my list, I am going to blame Scott_Arm for jinxing me with no time!
Only XBLA/Video Marketplace purchases for me since this thread started and then the worst word in the English/American
As far as my list, I might be removing some things, PoP has moved into a wait and see, Lips needs to be added, I'm really on the fence about Resistance 2 but might grab it for the multi...think I will go over my list again.
Did you get AitD afterall?

Disclaimer: I may list a game or two that were released this half (or perhaps a couple weeks before, as in the case of MGS4) amongst some upcoming games, also, all games listed are PS3 unless otherwise noted.
In no particular order:
Bioshock (I have yet to play any version of this and the PS3 version looks very promising)
Siren Blood Curse
Dead Space
Fallout 3
Resistance 2
Motorstorm 2
The Force Unleashed
Fat Princess
Left 4 Dead (is this definitely coming to PS3? if not I'll have to get the 360 version when my roommate finally picks one up)
Project Origin (PS3 and PC - I want to try each, but will probably end up preferring the PC version)
Mirror's Edge
Ghostbusters
Stalker: Clear Sky (PC)
Fracture
RE5
COD:WaW
MGS4
Farcry 2 (PC)
DNF (lol, I know...)
I also have GTA4 to play (owned it for a month now, haven't even touched it), same goes for Time Crisis 4 (with guncon, oh yeah!) as well as both FEAR expansions on PC, and I'm finally getting around to playing Oblivion all the way through (owned since release, never beaten). Also currently having almost all my free time sucked up by PSN demos and SuperStardust HD (damn expansions are more addictive than crack).
Yeah, that's a fair bit of gaming...

Im trying to break the stereotype that PS3 doesnt have any games so I choose to pick the majority of the 3rd party games for it, unless it ends up being noticeably inferior to the X360 version to which I have no choice but to join the green side
I might've missed some more titles that got my interest, will update whenever.
