Post E3 Wishlist

So now that E3 has come and gone, has your wishlist remained in tact? Gained a few titles? Lost interest in others? Since the big three basically stuck to whats coming soon, we'll do the same. Let's stick to games coming out this year for the main list.

Blue = new entrants for my list based mostly on E3.

Xbox 360
1. Bioshock
2. Assassin's Creed
3. Halo 3
4. Burnout Paradise
5. Call of Duty 4
6. Stranglehold
7. Half Life 2
8. Mercenaries 2
9. Tomb Raider: Anniversary
10. Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga
11. Timeshift
12. Chronicles of Riddick

Nintendo Wii
1. Super Mario Galaxy
2. Metroid Prime Corruption
3. Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure
4. Nights: Journey of Dreams
5. Endless Ocean
6. Tomb Raider: Anniversary
7. No More Heroes
8. Rayman Raving Rabbids 2
9. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games
10. Manhunt 2 (assuming it gets released)

Nintendo DS
1. the Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

2008
1. Condemned: Bloodshot
2. Turok
3. Too Human
4. Mario Kart: Wii
5. Resident Evil 5

That is one hell of a shopping list and a hell of a lot of gaming.

ooh, I forgot about Riddick. Definite double dip for me. Hopefully it won't be full SRP.

E3 did little to change my want list. I'll only list those I'll likely(?) buy this year (if I can afford them)

Wii
Battalion Wars 2
Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (maybe)
Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary (Budget title?)
LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
MySims
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure
Wii Fit
Mario Kart

DS
Advance Wars 2
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings
Insecticide
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
My Word Coach
Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword
Worms: Open Warfare 2

One I've become interested in post E3:
Looney Tunes: Duck Amuck

Who am I kidding. I cannot afford all these. I'm going to try my hardest to at least get the holy trinity (MP3, MG, SSB) plus Zach and Wiki and Batalloin Wars. For Next year (after Christmas money): Mario Kart and Wii Fit. And I definately want Zelda: PH.

Lots of good stuff coming out. A couple you didn't mention that I'm looking forward to are Mass Effect and Conan, both for the 360.

What's the "main list" you refer to you in your OP?

I'm not giving you a hard time Mike, I'm just not clear on if this is each individual's poster's main list, an accumulated list, etc.

Conan is a wait and see for me. If it is MMO-like and free (after paying for Live) then i very well might snap it right up.

After showing my wife the Wii Fit thing she said she may want to buy a Wii as our "family" present for Christmas this year. I haven't been following Wii games at all so there may be a bunch i become interested in. Anything Big Brain-like she will love.

Smash Brothers could also be cool.

hey, no biggie. Sorry it's confusing. I just meant keep your main "wish list" comprised of games actually coming out this year. If something beyond 2007 strikes your fancy, throw it in a seperate list at the bottom of your post.

I just wanted to see what everyone was planning on getting this year. Plus it is hard to keep track of everything so seeing some little titles that may have slipped through the cracks on other peoples list helps. Like Duck Amuck. That one looks interesting.

You know Buzz, i'm also really curious about Blacksite - the demo and videos have been decent.

I don't have a PS3 but that camera/CCG game looks really cool. I would hate to buy the game though and then have to buy expansion packs.


I'm also looking forward to the Fullmetal Alchemist game on the DS that comes out in like a week.

The upcoming 360 Conan game is single player only. The PC version is the MMO.

My list is short (but long, by my standards) and very "mainstream" (I think), all for 360:

1. GTA4
2. Rock Band
3. GH3
4. Wait and see what the reviews say and what you folks say about Assassin's Creed, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Call of Duty 4, Mercenaries 2, Halo 3, Burnout Paradise, Stranglehold, Half Life 2, etc.
