i'll probably have to change my drawers a few times when that new FF Tactics comes out.


hopefully, they'll get rid of the retarded rule cards

[PixyJunket]

i'll probably have to change my drawers a few times when that new FF Tactics comes out.The one listed above, it's just a port the PS1 game.

The real sequel is coming out for the DS.

[KurrptSenate]

o darn, i should have known that :(

already have that game on my psp..


i guess ill have to play it on my DS lite, though it seems like waste with the touch screen

[Mano]

Oh, thank you Lord!!

I thought for a second I would be having to buy a PSP now.

[Shagrath]

I'll probably be picking up almost every game on the 360 list at some point. I have absolutely no interest in Halo, and probably will pass on Mass Effect as well. Everything else looks golden! Although, I don't know if Alan Wake is gonna make it this year or next.

[Josh H]

Updated with the DS list.

[PopcornTreeCt]

I can't wait for GTA IV and Assassin's Creed. The rest are kinda meh.

[Michael Corvin]

yeah, the 360 list is pretty golden. I seriously doubt Alan Wake will see the light of day this year. So in its place I'd put Mercenaries 2 or Burnout 5.

[dtcarson]

The only concern I have about No More Heroes type games on the Wii is when I hear commentators talking about wanting 'mature' games, and by 'mature' they mean graphically violent. I'm not necessarily anti-violence, but that does not really make a game 'mature', and I hope the first few 'mature' titles for Wii are truly mature and not just blood and guts/T&A type "mature".

... that is typically what mature entails. If you are talking something "mature" like Zelda or Lost Planet, those are Teen rated games.

[Deadman31]

No Castlevania for the PSP? I thought this would definitely make the top 10.

[darkside]

For the hell of it this is all I'm looking forward to. There are actually several games not listed here I'm looking forward to more like Phoenix Wright 3&4 and Fire Emblem.

Wii
Dragon Quest Swords
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Paper Mario

PS3
GTA IV
Lair (maybe)

PC
Bioshock
Half-life 2: Episode 2
Spore

DS
Chibi Robo: Park Patrol
Dragon Quest IX
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Rings of Fate
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings
Zelda: The Phantom Hour Glass
Pokemon Diamond/Pearl

[Josh H]

For the systems I have, this is what I'm looking forward to. There's a few others that I could end up wanting, but right now these are the must buys. I'll pop the PS2 in here whenever they get that list up as well.


Wii

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Paper Mario
Super Smash Bros: Brawl

DS

Dragon Quest IX
Zelda: The Phantom Hourglass

[Nosmo Rex]

Since the 360 is the only console I'm really playing these days:

360

Alan Wake - Don't know that much about it. I guess I had better do some research.
Army of Two - What little I've seen looks pretty good. I'll probably get it.
Assassin's Creed - The one trailer I saw didn't impress me, but I'll check it out.
Bioshock - The trailer looks very good.
GTA IV - Meh. Not my thing.
Guitar Hero II - No thanks.
Half-life II: Orange Box I just checked out the High Def trailer. Looks awesome!
Halo 3 - Well, of course.
Mass Effect - Looks very good
Project Gotham Racing 4 - Not a real big racing fan, but I'll probably get it.

Is no one considering GRAW2 to be a big game of 2007? Seems lile GRAW did big business last year.

Out of curiosity, why are you going with the PC Bioshock instead of the 360 version?

Dragon Age looks really good, but I doubt my PC can handle it -- Oblivion was too much for the graphics card, so at this point, it can't handle anything dull edge, let alone cutting edge. But between Spore and Dragon Age, there's enough good stuff out there that I just might have to spend the money on a new graphics card and a new processor.

At the moment, because I don't have a 360.

[Centurion]

Alan Wake should be listed under 'PC' as well. This may be the better version of the game whether or not it comes out in 2007. This game is most definitely one to take advantage of the new DirectX10 under Windows Vista just like Crysis.

My Top 10 most anticipated games for the remainder of 2007:

1 - Unreal Tournament III (PC)
2 - Crysis (PC)
3 - Half-life 2: Episode 2 w/ Team Fortress (PC)
4 - Halo 3 (X360)
5 - Forza Motorsport 2 (X360)
6 - Bioshock (PC)
7 - Alan Wake (PC)
8 - Huxley (PC)
9 - Left for Dead (X360)
10 - Spore (PC)

[Josh H]

I'm sure it will be. 1up hasn't put up the PS2 list yet. What you're seeing is just people's personal lists of PS2 games they are looking forward to.

[darkside]

I'm surprised God of War 2 isn't listed for the PS2.Don't think they have done their PS2 list yet.

[Centurion]

All the system line ups look pretty good, but I'm definitely ready for a next gen silent hill. Where is it?
Give Alan Wake a look.
You might enjoy that if you liked the Silent Hill games.

[Josh H]

Updated the first post with the PS2 list which the finally put up (actually looks like it was up on the 4th but they didn't bother with a link on the front page like the others).

[Chris_D]

Watched the 1UP show, latest ep. They weren't impressed with Wario either. Also thumbs down for Virtua Tennis 3. Their impressions were pretty much spot on with mine for that.
