Blockbuster Season

[Napoleon Insists]

It's upon us once more.

Lots of big releases in these last weeks. Fallout, Fable today, other much hyped titles.

And of course in 2 weeks is Black Ops, and Assassins Creed beyond that.

Which are you gonna be picking up?

[Predator]

too many!! apparently people don't buy games the rest of the year..

Would hate to be a developer being rushed to get the title ready by the holiday season as well, working massive hours to get it done just to suit the publishers!

[Master Chief]

Lots of good games came out throughout the year Pred.. Mass Effect 2 and Red Dead to name a couple!

They release heaps in these months for Christmas of course, as that's when people other than gamers buy video games.

I'll be trying to get as many good titles as I can. There's a few I'm not sure on yet and will wait for reviews, but I have Brotherhood and COD pre-ordered, and expecting Fable 3 from MS hopefully.

[nshady]

Yeah, as previously mentioned I think I've got all I really want for the year. None of this crop really do it for me.

[G-Train]

Black Ops mostly pre-ordered, my wallet's gonna be tight over the next few months with all the work I need done on my car, and trying to pay off student loans by Xmas too, so will prob hold off on Fable III, As Creed: Brotherhood etc til that's sorted.

Might see if I can fork for Cataclysm, since it's half the price of the others and I've been in the mood for some RPG lately.

Which are you gonna be picking up?

None of the ones you listed. This month has still been totally crazy for me though. I bought Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, DJ Hero 2 and Enslaved earlier in the month. Yesterday I ordered:

Atelier Rorona
Vanquish
Z.H.P: Unlosing Ranger vs Darkdeath Evilman
DBZ: Tenkaichi Tag Team

So, that's everything for this month, except for Force Unleashed 2. So many great games!

[Napoleon Insists]

Yeah I'm saving up for an overseas trip next year, so I've been planning ahead. Still, I seem to go a bit beyond my plan. I ordered Vanquish (gonna try it), Enslaved, New Vegas and Goldeneye.

I still wanna get Fable, Black Ops and probably most of all Brotherhood.

Theres a few on the side which I don't mind waiting for, since I don't think time will mess with them... Civ 5 etc I don't mind hanging around for.

I'm about to sell a whole bunch of games too, to make up for some of this outpour.

I'm about to sell a whole bunch of games too, to make up for some of this outpour.

Good move. I planned ahead and had a big sale last month, made a couple of hundred to put on this month's huge amount of games.

[Napoleon Insists]

Yeah. I've just about always held onto my games, way back through all the gens, but I think I'm gonna bundle up all but my most prized and get rid of em. I'm moving around a bit over the next couple of months... and the less  I have to haul, the better.

[G-Train]

Yeah I "sold" a couple of my games to try make a dint on Black Ops - Got rid of MW2 early but still only got $35 for it.
