What games are you looking forward to right now?
So the videogame industry had been like this lovely girl I dated through highschool which had the same interests and I enjoyed being with her and everything was fine. But in recent years I had been shunning her because she turned into a morbidly obese girl who didn't have anything in common with me anymore and did not interest me anymore. That might not be the best analogy ever but the point is... this year, everything has changed for good (IMO). Companies have started to be a bit more diverse and the companies that didn't have any serious competition in some markets now have an incentive to up the game.
We started the year with Portal 2, Mortal Kombat 9 and Crysis 2. All of these were good and tried to do things their own way. I have to single out MK9 because maybe its old school-ness helped it pique my interest. Now Alice: Madness Returns and Shadows of the Damned brought back that "don't ask too many questions and just accept it" attitude that I miss in videogames and made me sad for not having money to go out and buy them. And there's more on the way too. Rage is shaking up pretty nicely and seems like a very robust game where every idea was carefully implemented. Battlefield 3 is giving MW a run for its money since it already has more pre-orders than MW3 and pre-orders are the majority of sales normally. It seems it'll be fairly different from MW3 and looks rather nice. There were more games in my list of games that I want that elude me at the moment. But so far everything has been fairly good with the exception of Brink which didn't deliver on what I expected. But it was still decent in my eyes.
So what games are you looking forward to?
