Games you're excited about...

Post by obsidian »

So, what games are you excited to play? Post info about the game, screenshots, trailers, etc.




Hardware: Shipbreakers

The original creators of the Homeworld series left Relic to form Blackbird Interactive, and this is their first project. It is clearly very Homeworld-inspired. The general premise for this RTS that you drive around on the desert planet in giant vehicles salvaging derelict space craft for resources and technology upgrades to build up your army and supposedly fight off some enemy intent on killing you. As with Homeworld, amazing concept art and digitally painted trailers. It's almost a Homeworld prequel. Since THQ IP's are up for grabs soon, maybe Blackbird will pick up Homeworld and give it to us as a true continuation of the franchise.

I personally am waiting for the next SimCity game so I can spend my money on a product that doesn't work until much later after I buy it and, as a reward for waiting for a broken game to be fixed, I have the privilege to purchase the next upcoming DLC/imbedded commercial. :up:

After the release of Bioshock Infinite (which I still have to play) there really are no games I'm totally stoked about. Watch_Dogs looks interesting but it's not like I'm all over it with anticipation. Mainstream gaming is really starting to bore me.

I'm waiting for Neverwinter so I can get my MMO fix. And Watch Dogs seems cool. That's about it.

Is that even going to get made? I heard rumors, but that's it.

I'm definitely waiting for that game...if it ever comes.

Oh and I might try Elder Scrolls Online....maybe.

Don't you just love it when game makers can't think of an original title and resort to using older series' names from the franchise and just dropping the last word/number from the end?

"Neverwinter" is actually the name of a city in the Forgotten Realms D&D setting, and an important one at that.
Using it's name does not automatically imply connection to the game Neverwinter Nights. there has been games (anf books) before that one game and there will be games and books after that game.

I know plenty about Neverwinter, but this game has about as much to do with the city it got its name from than Neverwinter Nights did.

No games i'm stoked about at the moment. The new Thief game has my interest (but won't be out till 2015 or something) and also Watch Dogs, but that's all i can think of.

There's a few games i'll likely snatch up when the price comes down, like Dishonored and the new Bioshock. Can't be arsed to pay full price for games anymore, just don't game that much these days.

2014 for Thief. current screenshots suggest first person only, which troubles me.

Ohh 2014, good news. It switches to third person when you do acrobatic shizzles, i read on rockpapershotgun. And when you do stealthy leany things against a wall, it shows hands and stuff, which sounds rather nice imo.

Why does 1st person trouble you anyways..? It's the same in the old Thiefs, amirite?

Thief3 was both third and first person. I prefer third in stealthies.
