Games on your wish list this year
What games coming out in the next couple of months will be on your Christmas wish list? I haven't been keeping up, and I don't have anything on my list except a year's subscription to Laser Squad.

You know, I'm pretty happy with the collection of games I have. I don't really have anything on my wish list. Huh. That's weird. HL2 is on the list, but I'll wait a while for a price drop. I might pick up WarCraft 3 sometime. I dunno. I'm not used to this feeling.

You see, I'd put games on my X-Mas wishlist but then I'd have to wait until X-mas to get them. Of course there could always be ones that I did not want to spend my money on but if I got for free would be cool so I'd have to then list:
Rome: Total War
WH40K: Dawn of War
Sacred
Rome: Total War
WH40K: Dawn of War
Sacred

With two jobs, my gaming time is down to 1-2 hours, 4-5 times a week. I figure it will be way past Christmas before I finish the Scipii campaign in Rome:TW. Then there's Sims 2 to get back to. Then there's all the other campaigns.
But I will say that Children of the Nile looks cool, and will probably be my one purchase the rest of the year.

I *badly* want:
X-Men Legends
Halo 2
I sorta want:
Half-Life 2 (reviews wanted first)
Tribes Vengence
But of course, to get any of those you need a magical substance called "Money."
I don't know what it is, or how one gets it, but my roomate has recommended that I wear these tight pants and fluffy pink skirt and stand down on East Colefax at 2 am in the morning if I want to get some of this magical "money" substance.

Re: Games on your wish list this year
I liked LSN very much, however their current pricing comparable to a MOG is really out of the ball park for me - shame as its a great game.Bakhtosh wrote:What games coming out in the next couple of months will be on your Christmas wish list?

In terms of my current list
EQ2
HL2
Real debate whether I go for both of these or just one of them - really can't make my mind up on it I know EQ2 will require some effort but I so want to see the visuals of HL2

HL2
Pacific Fighters
Pirates!
What a sad season that there aren't many more good games coming!
Then again, I bought Planescape: Torment on a whim right before one of the holiday seasons, perhaps in 1999, and played the living hell out of that game for 2 weeks or so. I don't think I left the house until I beat it, and cried when I did so.
Man, what a game.
Either way, my girlie is coming in December, and she doesn't celebrate Christmas either, so we're set!
If only she was a little better at gaming... she needs training.

I literally haven't bought a single game since November 2003 (I got hooked on World of Warcraft) so I'm in an odd position. I've got almost a year's worth of games I haven't played, on top of wanting to re-play some favorites like Morrowind and System Shock 2 (now that I have the Prebirth Remix for it).
I'm withholding judgement on HL2 just because I felt like Deus Ex IW, Thief3 and Doom 3 all failed to live up to expectations. If it can actually meet or surpass the quality of HL1, I'll probably pick it up.

The only game getting my attention these days is World of Warcraft.
This will also be my first MMORPG,never really being interested in the genre before,but I love everything I've read and seen about this game and loved Warcraft II & III and that whole universe.And I know this type of game is a major time suck so I don't even want too get excited about anything else.

PC-wise:
Purchased Half-Life 2, just waiting for those guys to pull the switch.
Vampire: Bloodlines
Probably WoW, though I can't seem to shake the EQ2 interest
Oh - and Bioshock!
Console:
GTA: San Andreas
Halo 2
I think that's pretty much it..
