You dont always get what you want, right? In years like this one where there are too many good games to count, you cant buy every game u want to if u want to have enough money to survive ur monthly bills, haha

So, what games this year do you know u'd probably like but ur gonna give them a skip in the name of a greater good? By skip i mean u may get them in the future maybe, but not when they are first released for sure.

For me, I am probably skipping forza 4, brink, and rage. All three of these look great, but they arent my wallets priorities like mass effect 3 and uncharted 3 are.

I might skip Gears of War 3 and Resistance 3. I still haven't finished the 2nd Resistance, and I wasn't too thrilled about the 2nd Gears of War.

I'm going to buy everything but I'm probably only going to play a few major and niche games this year namely Final Fantasy XIII-2 (Japanese Version), Mass Effect 3, The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim, The Last Guardian, Uncharted 3, The 3rd Birthday, Yakuza 4 and Yakuza Of The End (Japanese Version).

Bulletstorm, Crysis 2, Portal 2, Resistance 3, Dead Space 2, Killzone 3, Elder Scrolls V, Mass Effect 3, Uncharted 3, Forza 4, CoD 10... I think that's it.

I may get some of them down the road, but I'm not jumping on them at launch.

If the game is actually great, I don't plan on skipping anything. I might just have to wait an extra month or two to get it.

Probably Killzone 3, Gears of War 3, Resistance 3, so-and-so are the ones I'll skip.

The big three for me this year are U3, ME3, and TESV.

I'm not too sure what I'm skipping this year. There isn't a whole lot I'm interested in. There's still a huge back catalog of games I've missed that I want though, so I'll probably sitll be playing catch up. I didn't get into this gen until two years ago and I'm nowhere near caught up on the existing library. Woe is me.

I'm already behind as I'm waiting on a little free time to pick up LBP2. I might even be picking up KZ3 before then, not sure yet though. I've stopped buying games until I can play them, as it usually saves me a few bucks, plus I get to hear proper feedback from the community well after the honeymoon period.

All that being said, I have a feeling I'll be holding off on a number of games this year until next year.

Hard to tell if any of these games will be great but, Games i will be skipping are, 1. Gears 3 2. Any COD game 3. Bulletstorm 4. Portal 2 The first one had to be the worst game ive ever played and i have no idea why anyone would be interested in the second one. Talk about a low budget cheesy game. It reminded me off a really bad "B" movie

Resistance 3, Ratchet and Clank, Gears 3, Killzone 3, LittleBigPlanet 2, Bulletstorm, and Crysis 2. I don't think Crysis 2 will even be a good game, but I certainly won't buy it.

Imma wait for anything else.

I also own a phat DS :P I had a 360, then it broke so I got another one, then my my brother took that one with him when he moved, then it broke again. Then he got a PS3 and moved back home, then I went to college shortly after. I might get another 360, but it wont be until MS releases the next gen xbox, and in that case i would hope the next gen xbox is BC so I wouldnt have to buy another 360.

Anyways, I barely have time to play all my Wii and DS games so getting another system would be a waste of money. I do have a laptop with some games too, but I certainly cant play any new PC games.

Will be skipping all of the new titles this year. As I do every year.

I wait till the price drops considerably before I even think about a purchase.

My library consists of titles that were released years ago. GTA IV, MGS 4, Uncharted, Resistance, Gears, Bioshock, Mass Effect.......

I don't play regularly enough to drop $60 on the newest title.

LBP2, Crysis 2, Infamous 2 (Rentals, if anything)

Resistance 3 will depend on how far in the red I am after my wedding and honeymoon.

Everything else will be bought 1st or 2nd day:D

All of this years PS3 and 360 exclusives, because I don't have either of them. A shame, really, I'm missing out on quite a bit.

Gears of War 3, because I don't have an Xbox 360. :D

Only games I'm planning on picking up are Mass Effect 3, Killzone 3, Uncharted 3, some of the remastered collections for PS3, and Resistance 3.

That is all.

I probably will skip Gears of War 3( at least until it comes down in price) as I can't see myself paying for Xbox live gold anytime soon.

Almst certainly gnna skip out on:

  1. Brink
  2. Rage
  3. Gears of War 3
  4. Forza Motorsport 4
  5. Homfront
  6. just about all the JRPG's
  7. everything on the NGP, Wii, 3DS as i don't have nor will i get them any time soon.
