Most Anticipated Video Games

So, it's a prequel....that itself is a sequel to another prequel?

Well, uh... yeah.

Despite its dubious placement in the Arkham chronology, it seems to be a 2D Metroid-style game from ex-Retro folks, so I think it'll be pretty good.

They were also doing that canceled FPS Mega Man game.

So they might have some chops even outside of Retro.

Anyone else waiting to see what Watch Dogs will be like? I finally got around to watching a couple of demos, and the story in the game seems pretty cool. Don't know what the gameplay will be like though, but I rented it on Gamefly so I"ll find out whenever it comes. I do like that you can use the city itself as a weapon, plus the premise reminds me a lot of Person of Interest.

I'm also looking forward to Watch Dogs. I've only seen the E3 video and decided to stop watching, because if I watch anymore, I would feel like I'm spoiling it for myself to get enough enjoyment outta the game. I'm doing the same with MGS5 and AC4 as well.

Meh, I am only doing that for the next season of Korra (which is why I am avoiding the Avatar thread) Video games are fair game to me unless it's Mass Effect 3.

Anyway, I too am anticipating Watch Dogs. It's from the old Splinter Cell team, right?

[Grave]

I'm usually like that as well, but I can get bored fairly quick these days, and with games lacking replay value I don't want to take any chances, especially on games that can potentially be story driven.

It's finally. Fucking. Happening. I can finally play the second chapter of Trails In The Sky. With the nightmare of the localization, however, I don't think XSeed will be tackling the rest of the series though, which is a shame. but at least this story arc in the series will see a proper release.

[Spark Of Spirit]

Wow, that took awhile. I finished the first one so long ago.

I do hope they at least do the third one since it's sort of an epilogue to the story and it isn't as big as the second one. but a PSP release in 2014? I'm guess it's a PSN only game, right? 

[Nel_Annette]

Yeah, they said themselves on Facebook that anyone expecting a physical release is s.o.l. 

Which sucks for a collector like me, but we've gotta be realistic, physical PSP games are dead in the water at this point.

[Foggle]

It's also coming to PC.

Shadow Warrior system requirements (check the last line):

Looking at this picture from a distance I saw Paper Mario:



This game is looking better and better.

Sci-fi physics-based construction/exploration/combat game with Mirror's Edge parkour mechanics. Hell yeah. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkJlP2j3eRs

Shantae: Half-Genie Hero is being co-developed by Inti-Creates

W-A-R-N-I-N-G-! Tie down your inner fanboy? We?re pleased to announce that Mega Man developer Inti Creates is working on Shantae: Half-Genie Hero! If you?re not familiar with Inti Creates, they?re the studio behind Mega Man 9 & 10, the Mega Man Zero Series on Game Boy Advance, and Mega Man ZX and ZX Advent....and now Mighty No. 9!

So this made me even more excited for the next Shantae game.

Vote for which playable boss you want in Shovel Knight!

They put up a site giving out info for each boss. Since three will be playable, I'm not sure exactly which would be the best to choose.
