The Dual Dragons Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 To me, 2011 was pretty dull until the 3rd/4th quarter, with Deus Ex, Skyrim, Batman Arkham City, Assassin's Creed Revelations etc spicing things up quite a bit. However, looking at the lineup of 2012, I can't help but getting eagerly excited due to the amount of promising games coming out AND them being pretty well spread throughout the year. And with the Japanese gaming marked struggling, I have a feeling they will get back on their feet again next year! Here's my to-buy-list of 2012: Tales of Graces F Mass Effect 3 Ninja Gaiden 3 (they promised better story than their previous entries, crossing my fingers for that!) Ni No Kuni Final Fantasy XIII-2 The Last Story Xenoblade Chronicles (US release) Asura's Wrath (looks CRAZY) Transformers Fall of Cybertron Assassin's Creed III (finally it's Desmond's turn to whoop @sses) I haven't had a long buy like this since the PS2 era, barely even then lol So what games are you excited for next year!?

Mirby Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Well I'm definitely getting a 3DS as soon as I can, and I'll definitely be buying Kingdom Hearts 3D when it comes out. Other games I'm looking forward to next year are the new Fire Emblem (provided it comes to the US), and if they celebrate Kirby's 20th with a surprise game (even though we just got two new ones) I'll get that too. I'll also hopefully get at least a 360 (if all goes well, a PS3 too) next year and I'll get a shit-ton of games for those that I need to catch up on. Quote
Chernabogue Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Well I'm definitely getting a 3DS as soon as I can, and I'll definitely be buying Kingdom Hearts 3D when it comes out. Same here, if I have enough money though... Quote
Mirby Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 My plan is to get it by February 20, at which point Four Swords Anniversary Edition will no longer be available. Quote
pokemoneinstein Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 The Wii U is my big gaming joy. But as for games of 2012, these are the ones I can't wait for: Pikmin 3 Luigi's Mansion 2 Paper Mario 4 Fire Emblem 13 (I REALLY hope they release this one in the US) I also look forward to Xenoblade Chronicles, but not so much as to save up to buy it on the first day. If I already have the money for it, great. If not, I won't bother until I get it. Quote
Mirby Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Oh yeah, Xenoblade and Luigi's Mansion 2. Forgot those. Also interested in Sonic 4: Episode 2. Let's hope they build it off of the Generations engine. Quote
AngelCityOutlaw Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 For me, it's all about fighting games. Street Fighter X Tekken DOA5 Tekken Tag 2 That new Ninja Gaiden and Tomb Raider will be killer as well. Quote
Gollgagh Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Mass Effect 3 aaaaannd can't think of anything else I have difficulty believing that AC3 will be released a single year after Revelations, but what do I know? I'm excited for the Vita, even if I'm not excited for any of the games. Quote
Hyperion5182 Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Mass effect 3. And right now that's it. I'm pretty down on the market this coming year. 2011 was a HUGE year i dont see 2012 being that good. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Final Fantasy X HD Remake. That is all. Oh, and most of the stuff on your list, Dan. Good list! Quote
The Dual Dragons Posted December 31, 2011 Author Posted December 31, 2011 For me, it's all about fighting games.Street Fighter X Tekken DOA5 Tekken Tag 2 That new Ninja Gaiden and Tomb Raider will be killer as well. Ohyeah Street Fighter X Tekken, I am preeetty interested in seeing how that turns out. Looks brutal, Kazuya with the street fighter art style = awesomeness Quote
Ethan Rex Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 oh right, Bioshock Infinite Yupp, thats pretty much all I'll buy all year. Unless I continue my ingenious idea of waiting a year to buy good games. I might actually start assassin's creed series this year. Quote

Gollgagh Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 I might actually start assassin's creed series this year. if you get around to it, don't bother with any of the extra collectables in the first game, they get you jack (unless you're into trophies) Quote
