What games are you looking forward to ? Either that are out right now or are coming out in a month or more ?

I am waiting for the release of:

Prototype
InFamous
Batman Arkham Asylum (OMG, just cant wait for that... oops, (que the 80s music) I 'jizzed in my pants'

Cant wait to buy
50 Cent: Blood in the Sand
Tom Clancey's: Hawks
Riddick: something something (MAYBE buy this one but primarily because not only does it have the new game but they TOTALLY revamped the Escape from Butcher Bay game and have it on the disc as well)

I picked up Resistance 2 and Killzone 2 and am ENDURING them. I will probably pony them up for trade when InFamous and Prototype come out next month (?)

June will be dedicated to Batman: Arkham Asylum... don't expect to see me on the boards that much... serioulsly.

There is a game out now called VALKYRIE CHRONICLES... I have the demo but just NOT had the time to check it out (BTW, yesterday I conned the guy at GameStop to give me the card code for an early beta test for the new Red Faction game coming out - still have yet to play it, review to come). Has anyone played this and what are your thoughts ? The cell shading looks BEAUTIFUL but as usual it is a Japanese creation which is inherent with that Far East quirks. (I much more prefer American/Canadian made games... it is a culture thing). But I am considering picking this up (not that I need to but dammit it looks so pretty

)

Anyone paying or have played it ? Thoughts on this and all the above !!??

I am looking forward to Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! What Did I Do To Deserve This? on the PSP.

Yes it is the actual US/UK release title of the game. The Japanese title is Yuusha no Kuse ni Namaikida which I think translates as 'You've Got A Big Mouth, For A Hero'

Remember those old skool RPGs where you go through a basic maze style dungeon, fighting a variety of monsters in the narrow corridors to reach the boss at the end? That is basically how this works except in reverse. You have to build the dungeon by digging out tunnels under a village and filling it with monsters that you dig out of coloured blocks and you have to hide the boss-monster at the end of the dungeon. After you have finished this first stage of the game heroes start pouring into the dungeon and you have to manage and expand the dungeon in real-time to hide the boss from the heroes.

No official release date as yet but I need to own this game.

I love quirky weirdness in games.

Hmmm kind of like Dungeon Master and Dungeon Master 2 from years past.

But in 2D pixel graphics with lots of pointless humour.

So they can ruin the game franchise like they did with the movies?

Recently released games I can't wait to play are Onslaught, Mad World and Deadly Creatures on the Wii and, on upcoming, Punch Out! and Excitebots (the sequel Excite Truck) look awesome.

But truthfully it'll probably be awhile before any of those get cheap enough for me to buy (except Onslaught on WiiWare). Honestly there's a hundred or so GameCube and Wii games that I haven't played yet but can't wait to try. Probably the next games I'll be getting are Alex Kidd and Fantasy Zone on the Virtual Console and, since my b-day is coming up, I might buy the zapper shell with the Zelda shooter as a present for myself.
