What games are you buying in March?

Figured this would be slightly different from the "What are you playing?" threads. March is absolutely loaded with big titles, so I was curious what everyone out there was planning on buying, and what games people are going to wait for a price drop on.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_in....E2.80.93March

Quick poll of the big releases, sorry if I left something else major out.

I know i'll be playing SC2, and probably BioShock Infinite. I love both the Gears of War and God of War franchises, so I want both of those eventually. The great reviews of Tomb Raider have me wanting to play that. Sim City seems always fun for a nice diversion. Ugh. So many games, so little time.

Bioshock: Infinite will be in my hands as soon as humanly possible.

I'm considering release-day purchases of Tomb Raider and Metro: Last Light, too.

Re: What games are you buying in March?

Tomb Raider (the reviews have brought me on board), Gears, Bioshock.

Metro Last Light as well if it's released as scheduled, but it will almost certainly be delayed due to the THQ situation.

God of War: Ascension (Collector's Edition), Tomb Raider (steel book), BioShock Infinite (Limited Edition), and Gears of War: Judgment. It's going to be a pricey month.

Re: What games are you buying in March?

Gears....after the 19th I won't have anytime for anything else.

I really want Bioshock but I'm trying to do the co-op of Ghost Recon before Gears come out. I'll get Bioshock: Infinite down the road sometime.

Re: What games are you buying in March?

I'm assuming that Walking Dead title is that crappy looking FPS and not a continuation of the amazing XBLA series?

Re: What games are you buying in March?

Always wondered why we didn't have these type of threads for the video games forum.
Tomb Raider is my most anticipated game so is a day 1. Will most likely pick up The Show as well.
Gears I may wait for a price drop on and Bioshock I may get eventually, but I still need to play the first one.
That being said, knowing myself like I do, I will buy all of the above mentioned right away even though I will never get around to playing them.

Re: What games are you buying in March?

Already preordered Gears and Bioshock.

I would like to buy TR and Metro just to "support" the industry, meaning I won't be able to play them for a long time. But nah! I would wait until they are under $30

I sent the information to amazon, hopefully they'll price match.

Re: What games are you buying in March?

Gears of War: Judgment and BioShock Infinite are both preordered. I'll probably get Luigi's Mansion when I'll have time to actually play it, and I'm much more interested now in Tomb Raider after the recent Clueless Gamer segment on Conan the other night, though I'm going to wait on real reviews before deciding there.

Re: What games are you buying in March?

GoW: Judgment and Starcraft: Heart of the Swarm are day one purchases. The former is already pre-ordered and I'll most likely purchase the latter off Battle.net on release date.

Depending on reviews, I may purchase Sim City. I've done a fantastic job at boycotting EA the past few years, but I might purchase the game if reviews are out of this world. If not, no loss as I'm not looking forward to installing Origin on my computer anyway.
