Duke Nukem Forever. It's going to happen I tell ya!

In all seriousness, I play a lot of horror games, so F.E.A.R 3 is one I'm looking forward to. Also Batman Akham Asylum 2 and Fallout Las Vegas.

Re: What Games Are You Excited Over?
Well I'm excited about God of War III, which is actually out. I bought it yesterday with three friends (digs, onebigpotato and axiom on here) - we're going to play through it together like we did the second.

Re: What Games Are You Excited Over?
Out of interest, what's putting you off of Dragon Age 2?

I do dislike the fact you have to be human, but otherwise changes seem pretty neutral or hard to tell whether they'll be good or bad.

its exactly that. i don't like so-called RPGs that force you into an almost specific role. not to mention that this game seems to be looking like a re-hash of the Witcher... or an unholy combination of The Witcher and Fable in a dragon age setting, with gameplay similar (its seeming) to God of War. i'd have much preferred, if they HAD to change things, going in a Mass Effect style, but nope.
also... the fact the character has a name (a la shepard) and is Hawke. I mean seriously WFT???? Hawke??? how much more of a cliche are we expected to swallow on this game.

Re: What Games Are You Excited Over?
Hawke's the surname, so that aspect is the same as origins, where all player-characters had surnames.

The role does seem slightly more pre-defined, but it's only the racial option that's been removed. All other creation options (ie face generation, gender and class) are present.

Don't know about the Witcher, but from what I've read the God of War idea is not the case, it's just a slightly faster version of what happened in Origins, with pause and play still included.
