    Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Dargaon Age 2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, the 3ds, And if Asassins Creed 3 comes out in 2011 then that too. The game i am not looking forward to is the new Devil May Cry, Ninja Theory screwed that one up too bad for me and they can go to hell for it.

    They're making it more like their other RPGs. Notably, the development team themselves want to make it "more like Mass Effect".

    The protagonist is now no longer customizeable nor does he/she have multiple backstories. You can make it male or female, but it'll have a predefined name and a backstory before you even set foot in its armor.

    Your role playing options are more limited, obviously. The dialogue is no longer a list and direct quote, and is now a general direction the dialogue can take. Mass Effect's wheel system, basically. Responses will most likely be further limited since they're adding voice acting for the main character.

    Artistically, the game is lighter than DAO. No more pools of blood and the monsters look less twisted and more like stereotypical fantasy enemies. The darkspawn grunts themselves now look like ass.

    Mass Effect 3, Gears 3 and the new Zelda!

    Also, from a more geeky slant im looking forward to the new developments on the PC scene. Just ordered my new "Sandybridge" components this week, next its uber graphics card next month!

    Anyone else reckon we'll get some concrete info on the next gen of consoles by Q3/Q4 too? 360 has gotta be on its last legs, what with MS's last ditch efforts at poor security in the form of AP25.

    this sounds bad, especially since i hated mass effect with a passion and loved the gore in the first dragon age. why the fuck are developers messing with a good concept when they could just make small improvements? guess i will never know the answer to this...

    They're screwed either way. Either they make huge changes and people say, "oh, it's not as good as the first one. Why did they mess with a good thing?" or they only make a few changes, and people say, "they barely changed anything, it's just the same old game. WTF?"

    I don't really follow new releases that much, but I think MML3 is starting to sound pretty sexy at the moment, even if I've never played either of the first two. Which I should probably do, eventually... also, the new Tomb Raider game sounds somewhat interesting, although I have no idea what its release date is. Also (and I can't believe I forgot this originally) Uncharted 3 looks spectacular.

    That you should. Like...now.

    Of course I'm looking forward to MML3, but if you know me at all, you knew that. And....really.....nothing much else looks all that spectacular. There's Kingdom Hearts RE:Coded, but...it's just a rehash of a CELL PHONE GAME, after all. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim looks okay, too, I suppose. Just hope it's less buggy than the two latest Fallouts. 3DS looks....okay. A bit gimmicky, though, and I don't think I'd buy it if not for MML3.

    I'm looking forward to 3DS and the remakes of Zelda, Mario Kart and Star Fox games, as well as the Professor Layton/Phoenix Wright crossover. I would also like to comment on games arriving on PC, but knowing that I'll have to play on my Athlon XP 1100 mhz this year, it doesn't give me a lot of freedom to discuss the fore-coming games.
    P.S. I was also taken aback by the latest info about 3DS' battery life... Oh, well... :/
