October 21st is going to be one hell of a day.

Bioshock
Dead Space
Little Big Planet

ALL release on the 21st. And I'd love to get ALL 3.
God (and my paycheck) willing...

And then there's Fallout 3 on the following week.

I only want Bioshock neither of the other two interest me, however I am getting The Office Season 4 on Sep 2.

Bioshock! No Deadspace! Oh this is gonna be difficult.:(

08-31-2008, 08:35 PM

Oh I will most likely find a way to get Fable II also :)

Hmmm well I've played Bioshock PC & 360 so it's probably going to be a rental only item for me. As for the others I'm waiting for a bit more info before deciding. As for Fallout 3 I've allready got it prepaid, being from the people who brought us Oblivion it should provide several hours of entertainment. Not to mention the LE comes in a nifty metal lunchbox with a bobble head guy as well! :D

Whatever, this is nothing compared to 2007 (multi-console wise)!

I'm getting LBP and BioShock. I don't know enough about Dead Space to go for it...

Transformers is on Blu-Ray Sep.2 as well.

I don't buy too many games, so I'll be fine. I think my wife might kill me if I bought BioShock again...:D

I'm looking forward to whatever new Hitman game is coming, because I friggin' LOVE Agent 47. I'm also going to pick up Tomb Raider Underworld. Whenever that new Street Fighter II Turbo hits the Xbox LIVE Arcade, I'll be scooping that one up as well.

Why not street fighter 4?

I might pick that up, but I wasn't sure which fighting game would be better between, MK vs DC Universe, or Soul Calibur 4...

...because I forgot. :D

I'll be picking Street Fighter IV up as well.

It is only bioshock that truly interests me, I am very picky with my games - Bioshock hit all the marks for me :)

It's gonna be a tought choice. I'll w8 for reviews for all 3 but i think i'll go for LBP and later for BioShock.

Not to pimp a competitor's game and all... but check out...

www.deadspacegame.com and
www.noknownsurvivors.com

Extremely well done back stories told thru comic panels ala MGS.
Great sites as well, although not as great a C.O.R. ;)

As far as a DEAD SPACE the game is concerned it's a 3rd Person perspective survival horror tale meets ALIEN, THE THING, EVENT HORIZON to name but a few inspirations.
The key gameplay mechanic is 'strategic dismemberment'.
You can't kill the infected alien humans with headshots, heartshots, etc.
You have to systematically dismember various parts of them to stop them.
Needless to say it's extremely graphic. But, the game is steeped in atmosphere and tension.
I played it, briefly at this years COMIC-CON and it's on my must-buy list.

Sorry to digress...

Bioshock, The Force Unleashed, Resistance 2, Fable 2, Gears of War 2, Lord of the Rings Conquest, Left 4 Dead, Fallout 3... This whole winter season is going to kill my wallet.

What can I say, it's gotta be Bioshock! I am still not too hyped for Little Big Planet, though Dead Space is tempting. At this point though I am counting down the days until I can return to Rapture, try out the new Survivor mode, watch the installation movie, enjoy some slightly improved visuals, play some challenge rooms. Yep, I am definitely pumped, which is odd considering i can play the game at any time on my 360!

Call Of Duty World At War NOV. 11
Gears Of War II NOV. 7
End War NOV. 4
Left 4 Dead NOV. 21

Yeah November is brutal.:eek:
But, wisely spread out.
October 21st is an exception, and thankfully not the norm.
Hell, even FABLE II comes out the 21st as well,
but I was tring to keep the list PS3 only.

Whoah man WHOAH, sure Bioshock is a good game, but to me there are better games, Like Resident Evil 5 (Which I have HIGH hopes for)

Bioshock is up there with Gears of War, not quite yet though....

Resident Evil 5 won't be as good. Dead Space will. So will Left 4 Dead. I love Valve. They reward replay value.

Won't be as good as what? Left4Dead? Dead Space?
Jury's still out on Dead Space... lest we forget the EA factor!
Look what they did to Army of Two.
I am really excited for Dead Space, and I sincerely hope EA doesn't frak it up.

And RE5 already looks infinitely better, graphically than Left4Dead
(L4D has already had one graphical do-over).
I 'll give L4D the 4 player Co-Op. But the verdict is still waaaay out on it.
RE5 at least we know if its half as good as RE4... it will be effin' amazing.

BTW, Left4Dead is being developed by Certain Affinity and Published by Valve.
BIG difference. Even though they were absorbed by Valve and are now Valve South.
Certain Affinity's only other title was "Age of Booty" (an RTS).
Valve is overseeing it, and I'm sure it will be good.
But I'll reserve judgement until reviews start rolling in and more importantly,
I play it.

I'll be getting dead space first - must buy. Then LBP then if it is really worth it bioshock...

But my buy list this autumn is massive:

R:FOM 2
Motorstorm 2
Dead Space
Little Big Planet
Red Alert 3
Crysis Warhead
Spore
Killzone 2 (or is it 2009?)
Left 4 Dead
Bioshock (possibly)
Tomb Raider Underworld (if they sort it out graphically)
Pain amusment park
Dead Island (but i havent heard from that in a while)

I'm pretty sure there are more as well but 13 games at about £30 each is like a bank black hole (lucky i have a brother to share the price with!)

I actually am considering not buying dead space, but actually purchasing fallout 3, it should be better than Dead Space.... right? I get a 645 dollar paycheck every month, but I like to save, what games would you guys reccomend?

Slikere

09-06-2008, 09:43 AM

Well only get dead space if you are a horror fan, i liked the thing, alien, event horizon and doom so its a sure buy for me because its just all those together...

Same reasons it's a buy for me!
And I'm skeptical of EA's track record lately with the shoddiness of Ao2 and now Mercenaries.

My List Is (If Money was no object):

STAR WARS: Force Unleashed
LEGENDARY
DEAD SPACE
LITTLE BIG PLANET
BIOSHOCK
FALLOUT 3
RESISTANCE 2
GEARS OF WAR 2
MIRROR'S EDGE
LEFT 4 DEAD
PRINCE OF PERSIA

EA has a bad track record? Most of my games are from them! They always release the big blockbuster games like crysis so i'll trust them with Dead Space.

Wouldyoukindly...

09-06-2008, 03:36 PM

Eh, its sorta a love-hate relationship with EA. Most definately gonna get Bioshock,Dead Space,little big planet looks interesting but I dont know if I would use 60$ on it. Ah also cant forget about Chrono Trigger for DS in november.

EA has a bad track record? Most of my games are from them! They always release the big blockbuster games like crysis so i'll trust them with Dead Space.

My issue with EA stems from shipping nearly completed games that are hyped to no end,
but ultimately fail to deliver.
e.g.
Army of Two (main draw was co-op, yet it wasn't nearly as refined as GOW or HALO 3)
Mercenaries 2 (horrible graphics and shoddy driving mechanics)

For clarification I'm referring to EA's NON-Sports titles, as I don't play any of their SPORTS titles. ;)
I know the new Madden and Tiger are scoring extremely well.

DEAD SPACE is wholly theirs. Developed and Published.
So I'm praying they hit a home run with it.
It looks awesome, so I'm really hopeful that they finally deliver the goods (for me anyways).

I clicked I have money for all three. I do, but I am not getting dead space day of release I am gonna wait. Gonna use that money to buy silent hill homecoming, but I am buying both bioshock and little big planet in october.

Farcry 2 has a very slight chance with me like Red faction 3. It should be way better graphics but it just looks like an inferior crysis and RF 3 is too different to the first for me as was the second.

The first Red Faction was brilliant.. I would get sidetracked and spend hours just shooting holes in walls to make tunnels somewhere :) the destroy anything environment was awesome.

I agree.
I played the Red Faction:Guerilla Beta and maybe it was just me, but I wasn't impressed.
I found the HUD extremely cluttered and confusing and color palette of the environments too similar and bland.

Anyway my new list of games is

R:FOM 2
Motorstorm 2
Dead Space
Little Big Planet
Red Alert 3
Crysis Warhead
Left 4 Dead
Bioshock (possibly)
Tomb Raider Underworld (if they sort it out graphically)
Dead Island (but i havent heard from that in a while)

I decided not to buy spore and i got pain amusment park

yea alot of games dont intrest me. but i might get alot more i still have ALOT of money idk if i find more games i might use that.

Top 3 Most wanted games: Resistance 2, Killzone 2, God of War 3........... I may be a bioshock fan but these games are goin to kick the big daddy .

Slackjack

10-02-2008, 11:03 PM

Not made of money xD but getting all 3 since they're probably some of the best games that came out this year so far for the ps3 along with Mgs4,Gta and Soul Calibur 4.
I'm a sucker for horror games so Bioshock and Dead Space is a no brainer for me.
Little Big Planet.. well it's Little Big Planet,looks a lot of fun and it's cute plus it has major online content to keep the game fresh.
But I have to agree this month is indeed a wallet washer =)
Cheers
