Bethesda Softworks:

Capcom:
All I have to say here is Dante Vs. Deadpool my mind is blown it about time to see a new Marvel vs Capcom I am one work Stoked and I’m not big on fighters but I love this one.
Disney Interactive Studios:
Who would of thought of the show that Disney Brought this year? Epic Mickey was well epic and Tron I am so glad Disney is showing this property love again.
Electronic Arts:
EA made a good show lots of good games, love for the FPS’s, and they are doing 3D (with glasses)
Konami:

LucasArts:
Star Wars need I say more and they are make it bigger and better, but another re-mastered Monkey Island.

Namco Bandai:
I only added this because of Enslaved: Odyssey to the West and it’s take on Journey to the West and it’s from the people who did Heavenly Sword.

Thank you for the love of your in house games now if you can keep these about two months apart so have time to beat them all.

Try to fight their way back with new games but the thing that got my attention was Sonic Riders and it being a Kinect game I can’t wait to see how this plays.
Sony Computer Entertainment:
A new God of War, Little Big Planet 2, and two game for the move that aren’t rip offs of the Wii library with Heroes on the Move (lol puns) and Sorcery. Don’t like the glowing orb on the top jus saying.

I don't understand your hatred for the laser tag game. I feel that it could be a nice addition to party games. I agree with the lack of Batman : Arkham Asylum 2. I felt that the first one was well done and i wished to have seen more for 2 including a release date. I'm really looking forward to this next year as a 360 owner and a Wii owner. there will be a lot of games to keep me occupied. I will most likely attempt to purchase the kinect, the new version of the 360, and a 3DS. If the cards fall right, I might look into getting a PS3 for some of the exclusive content they have for multiplatform games.
ReplyDeleteagreed as soon as i back up my 360 yeah i'm getting one of the new one's too
