I wouldn't be spending money on crap games that they will be releasing in the summer. Save those pennies for the rush from August to December. And it's a huge rush.

Forza Motorsport 2 is coming out today, Shadowrun in June, Mass Effect and Bioshock most likely in July/August, plus you have Lair, NGS and Warhawk for the PS3, then MP3, SMG, RE4 and SSBB for the Wii. Then you have the sports games like NCAA Football 2008, Madden 2008, All Pro Football 2008, etc. I bet I'm missing a few games inbetween those. Don't even get me started with the rest of the year.

No drought. Just more empty pockets. :(

Forza motorsport 2, bioshock, two worlds, shadowrun and maybe mass effect are waiting for me.

Also, I didn't really suffer from last year's game drought. I had chromehounds, and it was amazing the whole summer.

I'll be playing Starcraft: Broodwar for a time, i dont know later.wklzip

Same here! I'm playing through the original missions as well, plus the unlimited amount of battle net.

No need for new games all the time, I'll have plenty of fun playing CS:S, DOD:S, C&C3, Supreme Commander,CoH,  ArmA..etc...etc....

Coming soon is "Insurgancy". It's a Source Mod..Check it out! It looks mighty impressive, an updated CS:S in a way. Hopefully Quake Wars releases sometime in the summer, that would be a nice treat to hold me over until this fall, which looks crazy. I really can't stand this Fall onslaught that us Gamers get every year, it seems to be getting worse each year.

I hope your joking it probaly going to be the best and if you own all three console you wont have enough time to play them until the next blockbuster games come out.

360

Forza 2, Bio Shock, Overlord, Bluedragon

Multi

Cm Dirt, The Darkness, Two Worlds, Stranglehold, Moh, Stuntman

 

Ps3

Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Lair

 

Wii

Pokemon, Manhunt 2, Mario Strikers, Metroid Prime 3

 

The rest are not worth noting imo and maybe a sleeperhit or two and some solid rentals.

Forza Motorsport 2 is coming out today, Shadowrun in June, Mass Effect and Bioshock most likely in July/August, plus you have Lair, NGS and Warhawk for the PS3, then MP3, SMG, RE4 and SSBB for the Wii. Then you have the sports games like NCAA Football 2008, Madden 2008, All Pro Football 2008, etc. I bet I'm missing a few games inbetween those. Don't even get me started with the rest of the year.

No drought. Just more empty pockets. :(

I am stocked up, Counter-Strike: Source, Red Orchestra, Hidden: Source, UT2004, Call of Duty: United Offensive to keep me company when the rare occurrence of a game drought on the PC takes place.

In terms of Single player I have the whole Myst collection and Neverwinter Nights which I purchased recently.

I am playing Morrowind again and I reinstalled Starcraft. So I guess I'll survive.

 

EDIT: Mario Strikers Charged is out on the Wii ( well, in Europe anyway :) ), and Darkness is coming out soon, from the makers of Riddick.

I'm playing through Oblivion more, and going on a massive pc play session. When you have Counterstrike, Battlefield 2, and Company of Heroes sitting there with the option of a bunch of new maps and content, youknow you won't run out of fun anytime soon.

I was fine in the summer 2006 thanks to the replay value of my *games* library, I also got Oblivion quite late (in the holidays) so that kept me occupied, but 2006 wasn't such a good year for games in general.

I started playing some SC:BW recently too (I got into the mood after watching the SCII demo). Though right now, at this very moment, I'm deciding whether I should purchase NGB off ebay, so I might start playing that instead (The problem is I don't actually have an Xbox. The plan is to borrow my friend's, which is collecting dust because he's too lazy to either find games he actually likes for it or sell it).
