New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)

One of the trophies in this years' Madden will be based off this user video as seen below. I'm only posting this because I think this video is hilarious for some reason. And the guy talking sounds like Ray Lewis haha. Warning - the language is def. NSFW.

i think MW3 is going to be a damn good game, but i'm looking forward to Battlefield 3 more.

My gamertag on Xbox360 is Kindoy if anyone is interested me. Add me and let me know who you are & that you're from the warpath!

I played MW2 like it was going out of style, but I'm going back to Battlefield 3 when it comes out. COD just looks exactly the same, it's all about story in it and they aren't improving on previous versions anymore. Battlefield 3 wins for me because destructible environments are the thing that puts it over the top.

I actually just repurchased COD4 Modern Warfare the other day for like $17. Still the best online shooter if you ask me. Seems since MW2 they've made it to complicated and I never really enjoyed the new maps.

In other news I'm starting to consider buying Dead Island. My only concern is that it's one of those Farscape type vague stories where rather then make actual cut scenes the developers just decided to use voice overs in game to move the story along.

Basically if like 99% of the story is told like this opening dialog then I'm going to downgrade it to a rental. Tired of developers skimping on stories then marketing it as "immersive."

Silent Hill Downpour is also coming out as well as Uncharted 3.

I can't wait for Uncharted 3, probably my favorite gaming franchise of all time.

I got burned out on Black Ops a few months ago, tired of the same old, same old. COD needs to do something to shake things up, it's getting stale, though millions would probably disagree with me.

Switched over to Battlefield Bad Co 2 and have been loving life. BF3 is going to be insane. Vehicles, huge maps, and destructible environments = win.

I bought Battlefield Bad Company way before I ever got on the COD train, and I played it for a while and then forgot about it. Then MW2 came along and I got hooked on that. Got Black Ops for X-mas last year and I barely played it for a couple months.

Then I went back to Battlefield BC and that's been my fps of choice since. The combat is the same, if not better than COD, esp. with destructible buildings and such, the maps are better, there's more teamwork online and you get to drive cool vehicles, which will never happen online in COD. I'm sure we're in the minority here but Battlefield is constantly improving on itself whereas COD is content to keep throwing the same game out there, just set in different eras with different stories, and letting it sell like wildfire.

It's funny how people complain about Madden being the same game every year with new rosters, but to me COD is more guilty of pumping out the same game every year with only minor additions/improvements. And then they pump you for even more $$ with the map packs! COD doesn't innovate because they don't have to I guess. They can just keep putting out the same game and people eat it up like crack.

I think BF3 could steal some of COD's thunder, it looks amazing. Plus it's dropping a month before MW3.

I bought the two map packs that came out for MW2. I remember sitting there thinking I spent 90 bucks total on a single game, and that I was completely retarded for doing it. I'll never do that again lol. For the hours I put into it, maybe that 90 bucks might've been worth it, but nowadays I just think about all the things I could've used that money for, like 4 months of a gym membership, or how that money could've been put towards my car maintenance, or just something better served. 90 for a game is not worth it.
