RO2 and Rage, id software always manage to pull something out of the hat.

@ Olivier F1 2010 comes out tomorrow or Thursday, vroom, vroom...

Finally, it's been a long time since the PC has had a good F1 game :(

I say bring back Geoff Crammond. Formula One on the Amiga is still the best :D

Should be a good year, which will make a change.

RO:HO(E)S is a must buy, as is Storm of War and The Witcher 2.
Portal 2 might be but that'll be price/length dependent.

I've been waiting for something simulator since F1 Racing Championship, 2001 :eek:.

CM have done a really good job with Dirt so I'll give em the benefit of the doubt, for the time being.

Well there's 90's id and then there's Quake 4, Doom 3, Wolfenstein remake, and a slew of handheld versions of their ip's that are kinda meh. Not that any of them truly suck but they aren't masterpieces like their old games. RAGE looks pretty promising though.

Must own:

RO2
Rising Storm
Deus Ex 3 (if it turns out good)


Keep an eye on / maybe:

DCS: A10-C
Ground Branch* (edit: probably still dead...)
Portal 2


*I wish this game would come out, PC needs a new CQB game badly. :( Something for Tripwire maybe?:IS2:

yeah i was particularly fond of mexico city track on amiga version.

played 2, 3 and still have 4 on PC, and loved them all.

only problem with PC was that the game clock seemed to be sync'd with the pc's perfomance , so unless you got the details just right (and changed it from track to track) you found your laps times and simulated speed was unrealistic.
For example if you had the game maxed out on a good PC you would do a lap in real time many seconds quicker than the in game clock showed. That was a serious flaw for me.

A new crammond rates amoungst the most wanted games for the PC community.

I'm loving this new idea of TW publishing all these struggling indie games. Ground Branch for the tactical CQB and Project Reality for large scale realism. Valve's little badass stepchild saving PC gaming from behind the scenes.

That would be great.

Ground Branch, if ever completed as they originally intended, was going to be the best tactical shooter ever.

Shogun 2: Total War (if the AI is actually good this time around... but I'm very leery since they always promise the AI will be way better and it always ends up sucking)
.
I like the TW series but doesn't seem like the AI has gotten any better since Rome. I'll probably still get it but am still a little pissed that they spent so much time on ships instead of making other parts better and stripping a bunch of other features out.

Looking forward to NS2 but i am glad I didn't give them any money yes since they delayed it for over a year. Would have been cool to be in the beta but it all could still fall apart.

Also will pick up a few Indie games just dont know what they are yet...

WH40K MMO? WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-

pffff, Tera does look awesome... painfully awesome, because after Aion, I swore to not play any other MMO that requires fees, its just not worth it

BTW, if you need a good MMO, take a look at Guild Wars 2, looks very revolutionary in the genre. (and no fees required)

Bioshock Infinite is 2012. You've got a 1200 post count on RO forums and you don't care for RO1 and aren't really interested in RO2... mmhmm

Yes, you got me. I'm a secret troll/plant/bot and have been since I registered.

Oh wait. TWI makes an entirely different game from RO. You have 1k posts yet you've never read the KF forums? Hhhhhhhrrrrrrmmmmmmmm...........

Last time I checked, the forum layout says TWI Interactive Forum > Off-topic > Gaming. So you're technically *****ing at me in the wrong forum.

Thanks for the link though.

Excuse me. Didn't think someone with a 1200 post count would only have been here for a year. Clearly I was mistaken. Sorry pal and you're welcome.
