I'm already sold on Uncharted 2, Fallout 3 GOTY, Demon's Souls, and Alpha Protocol for my gaming from September to October.

However out of the following list, which 3 are worth pre-ordering?

1. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2

2. Dark Void

3. Singularity

4. Brutal Legend

5. Edge of Twilight (if it comes out during this time period)

6. Need For Speed Shift

7. Dragon Age: Origins

games that you think based upon your impressions, are worth the 60 dollar buy right on the onset. and which games are just worth waiting for price drops/used.

Honestly, if you don't get something super slick for free with the pre-order, I don't see the point at all. Games always go on sale like a month after release at certain stores. I'll be picking up Brutal Legend and Dragon Age, but not necessarily day one. The others are rentals at best.

As a general rule of thumb if a game doesn't appear it will have some multiplayer longevity or some epic replayability or both (I'm looking at YOU World of Warcraft) I generally will wait for a price drop.

Same here. I can't see any of them selling out except maybe Ultimate Alliance 2. Other than that, you should be able to pick up any of the other games day one without much hassle if you ask me.

from those,

maybe MUA 2 and Brutal Legend, unless it comes with a bonus for pre-ordering I think that isn't necessary pre-ordering imo.

These two!!

I heard that after playing the Last Guardian, you will go blind from the sheer ecstasy and brilliance of it all, and the universe will dissolve into nothingness all around you until all matter is condensed into one shinig, vibrating point....

Could just be hype, though....

I'd have to agree with this. no point in preordering if you don't get anything good for it.

The reason i'm pre-ordering is cause i can spend my money on picking up the games for winter. i intent to spend my excess income of September for the PSP Go.

so if i can make pre-orders on worthwhile games, the better.

as of yet i have pre-orderd (paid in full) Fallout 3 Game of the Year (PS3), and Batman Arkham Asylum (PS3).

and yes, i more inclined to pre-order for a game that i want that will have extra's tossed in. for instance i'm definently pre-ordering the special edition of Demon's Souls. comes with 150 page strategy guide/book.

If you don't know, then you shouldn't get any of them. We're not the ones buying it and we don't decide what you like.

Uncharted 2, Fallout 3 GOTY, Demons' souls & Alpha Protocol are good enough... just wait for more details regarding the otrher games and get 'em upon release if you really want to... but i'd save up for the much better games tht will come up by the last quarter and early next year...

Out of those, only Singularity. None of the others appeal to me.
