    Hm... I'd like to see some proof of this. Somehow I doubt it.

    Ya that game is looking great! I'd say for me it is Bioshock 2 and Borderlands top 2 "can't wait" titles. Unless some how HL Ep 3 gets announced, that might have to bump something... but I feel confident it won't have to. :(

    Yea I'm a little dissapointed though... In borderlands they changed the art style and play style completely.... It was supposed to look really cool, I have the Gami informer from the original first look (it looked alot cooler before, like a fallout/diablo fps)

    If I find the issue, I'll scan some photos in to show you the original article...

    Hm I actually really like the new art style, lol. I saw some screenies way back before they changed it and it just kinda looked like any other wasteland 3D game. I'm all for stylized visuals if they're done well. I get bored of "realism" sometimes.

    Like the latest PoP. I loved the look. Was like running through a watercolour painting. It felt oddly relaxing. Not that I think Borderlands will be relaxing, I just like it when art directors try to do something really different.

    Edit: here are some Before/After shots

    Alright, I can deal with this! I saw a video before of live gameplay and it didn't look as good, but that video looked really nice

    I hope episode 3 comes out this year....

    I'm looking forward to L4D2, Mass Effect 2, Assassin's Creed 2, Bioshock 2. Thats it for now. I'm kind of tired of COD games, they are releasing games like diareah instead of making a true epic game.

    Ep 3... this year!?!

    Somehow I highly doubt it, with the announcement of L4D2 (or as I like calling it L$D2), we will not see Ep 3 this year. :(

    I got an even mix of originals (Alan Wake, Wolfenstein, NFS: Shift) and sequels (Crysis II, Mafia II, L4D II) on my list :cool:

    Agree with rambo5501 about COD too....

    Alan wake, lol? I fear it will either never appear or turn out to be crap. It is taking WAY too long finish. :\

    what are the guys from 3D Realms going to do with their 12-year-old FPS named 'Duke Nukem Forever' ? Guess it'll take forever to release that one :|

    Not ever since it was cancelled and both sides are now going to court over the other's failures.

    For me its...

    Dragonage: Origins
    Mass Effect 2
    Splinter Cell: Conviction
    Alpha Protocol
    Assassin's Creed 2
    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
    Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood
    Magesty 2
    Crysis 2
    Battlefield Bad Company 2
    (not necessarily in that order)

    Did someone say that The Witcher II is coming out this year? That would definitly be on my list too then.

    Operation Flashpoint 2. Google it and check out the videos, looks awesome. Seems like they put more emphasis on realistics weapons and such more than aa3.
