What Games Are You Getting This Week?

This week (10/25-10/31) is perhaps the biggest of the year, in regards to the total number of AAA titles getting released. Which ones are you picking up?

Multiple selections allowed.

For me:
<----- , obviously
Tekken 6 (360)
Tales From Liberty City (360)
Forza 3 (probably, using TRU trade in)

This. The exact same way.

GTAIV: TBoGT maybe. It's going to be 1600 points and I only need 50 more, so I'll be waiting on some point related sale. Or just splurge and use those extra points for something else if I'm impatient.

Just DJ Hero for me, thanks to that old Amazon trade-in deal.

Nothing for me. I might get the Ballad of Gay Tony somewhere down the line, but I never even finished Lost and the Damned.

Borderlands will keep me more than occupied until Modern Warfare 2.

This. ...and when is Dead Rising 2 coming out? ...and what is with all of the Ratchet & Clank hype? What would you guys compare this to, like a Mario/Sonic type game? I still don't own a PS3 title yet, maybe I'll have to check out R&C.

R&C A Crack In Time; the box art is my current Avatar. Isn't it pointing to that on your screen?

BTW: I'm jealous that you used your Amazon coupon on the DJ Hero bundle. I used mine on the Beatles RB set, but as much as I dislike playing the Hoffner bass, I wish I had a do-over there.

Tekken 6 is a down the line purchase. I've ordered Dragon Age, which I guess is next week, though.

Re: What Games Are You Getting This Week?

None for me. I'd probably pick up Ratchet & Clank if I had a PS3. But I'm still working through a backlog -- I've been working on Brutal Legend, Borderlands, and a Boy and his Blob, have Prototype and Tales of Vesperia half finished, and Ghostbusters and Overlord II are unopened. Plus, Assassin's Creed II and Dragon Age are coming in the next few weeks.

Don't even get my started on my handheld backlog. I put aside Professor Layton to play Scribblenauts, which I put aside to play Dark Spire, which I put aside to play Bowser's Inside Story. Plus I picked up Knights in the Nightmare at some point and barely even cracked it.

After Batman and Uncharted, I need a bit of a break.

Oh, that makes sense. I have all avatars turned off, so that explains my confusion.

BTW: I'm jealous that you used your Amazon coupon on the DJ Hero bundle. I used mine on the Beatles RB set, but as much as I dislike playing the Hoffner bass, I wish I had a do-over there.
Yeah, I love the Beatles RB game but I'm not a big enough fan to need new instruments for it.

Bought too much this month...

Lego Rock band next week. God of war collection, and Assassins creed 2 two weeks after that.

Although I certainly don't need another game to add to the huge pile, I still have R&C pre-ordered.
