What are you waiting for...
« on: August 18, 2005, 01:52:17 PM »
... as the title suggests which games are you excited about/waiting for etc etc...

myself I am urgently anticipating Oblivion (i miss playing Morrowind) and also intrigued about Prey... (Prey was one of those games i really wanted to play late 90s/early 00s but then disappeared completely off 3d realms radar after multiple slippages - thought it was canned but has now been resurrected and should be out in october).

On the gamecube (the only console i have - yeah yeah yeah i need an xbox 360) i am also intrigued by the new zelda game - hey you can ride horses

At least look at ign's screenshots page.  So pretty :)

Why are you waiting for Serious Sam if you didn't like the first one?

Hitman: Blood Money for the PC.
Gorgeous graphics; re-written engine (Glacier II  :D) so hopefully the AI and movement will be fixed too.

Civilization IV, although I hope Firaxis will have ditched/rectified some of the appalling gitches and historical/political inaccuracies of civ3.

Didn't know about the Morrowind sequel - that might be worth a look, too.

edit: Ditto with Serious Sam 3. I liked the first two a lot.

You could ride a horse in Ocarina, yes.  I never played Majora's Mask, but in Wind Waker your boat looks like a horse.  Does that count?

Yeppers. There's been some horrid, horrid rumors about it not getting released until Jan-March 2006 ( :( ) but I'm quietly confident.

You couldn't type "Oblivion" into the "Find a Game" thing? :p

Keep in mind that most of these are in-engine.
