What does Your Game Purchases Calendar Look Like?

Just wondering what was on everyone's mind for game purchases the remainder of the year. My plan isn't set in stone, but there is a number of high-profile games I will be getting on day-1. More so than I expected. I have to plan accordingly to make sure I have the spare cash. So many games.

August:

The start of the awesome, second half of 2016 kicked off with Rare Replay earlier this month. Been pretty much playing that nonstop. I'm nowhere near finishing everything. And then on the 25th, I am excited to say that both Gears Ultimate and Mega Man Legacy come out. Then on the 1st of September is the first of the BIG ones...

September:

Metal Gear Solid V comes out the first. I expect between these three games, I will have my work cut out for me until October 27, when Halo 5 comes out. I might go back and pick up Rock Band 4 though if there is a break in between the first of Sep and the end of Oct. Edit: Forgot about Super Mario Maker.--Pickin this up too.

October:

The next BIG one for me is on November 10th.--Fallout 4 gets released. I am excited to play Rot Tomb Raider that comes out on the same day, but I simply won't have time to give it the attention it deserves. Especially if I am going to be playing Fallout 4, or if I am still playing MGSV, at that. Edit: Also forgot about DQ Heroes.--gotta have it day-1.

December:

Lastly, I pretty much have an entire month to get my shit in order before the last day-one purchase, which is Just Cause 3 on December 1st. If there is a sliver of downtime in between games, I plan on going back and getting Mad Max, The Uncharted Collection.

And that is about it for my event calendar of the year. I reserve my right to grab any random game on a whim, but I think I'll stick to this with 98% accuracy. What about you guys? What is your exciting games calendar till the end of this year? Or beyond?

Those are the 10 I'll be grabbing on or around release. There are obviously a few titles not on here that'll also get bought down the line or added onto my XMas list. I gotta laugh when I remember how SW kept insisting this winter was dead...

September: Super Mario Maker, NBA 2K16

October: Yoshi's Woolly World, Legend of Zelda Tri-Force

November: Star Fox Zero, Yo-Kai Watch, Overwatch

December: Xenoblade Chronicles X

Ill be getting a few other older games and maybe MGS: Phantom Pain also.

The only games I know I'm certainly getting right now are Gears of War Ultimate Edition, Persona 4 DAN, and if it still actually comes out this year, Persona 5.

Games that I WANT to get depending on how money is looking include MGS V, Fallout 4(although I might wait a while on this one just so it already has good mod support), Yoshi's Wooly World, Super Mario Maker, and the new Star Fox.

August: Until Dawn (PS4)
September: MGS V (PC)
October: Tales of Zestiria (PC)
November: Fallout 4 (PC)
December: Xenoblade Chronicles X (Wii U)

tbh I doubt I'll have time to finish all of these by the end of the year anyway

August: Evolve (PC) In fact, will be picking it up tonight since it's on sale for $20 which seems right for the game it is.

September: MGS V (PC) Super Mario Maker (Wii U)

October: Yoshi's Woolly World (Wii U) Shovel Knight physical version (Wii U)

November: Fallout 4 (PC)

December: Xenoblade Chronicles X (Wii U) Star Fox Zero (Wii U)

I'll also pick up any games that go on sale like The Witcher 3, Dying Light, etc. I might also look into some 3DS games and whenever Fatal Frame comes out I'll definitely get that.

@isturbo1984:

As of now:

August: Zombi

Sept: MGS5

Oct: Dragon Quest Heroes (maybe Zestria, If I can swing it)

Nov: Fallout 4

Dec - Will ask my wife for Just Cause 3 for my Birthday, and for Xmas Battlefront or Until Dawn(depending on scores for both)

Will get Disgaea 5 down the line (would love a vita announcment as I play them on that more than console).

@PikminWorld: I forgot all about Shovel Knight Wii U physical copy, im gonna try and get that when i can.

These are the definites:

August: Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, Dishonored: Definitive Edition

September: Forza 6, Adr1ft

October: Halo 5

November: Rise of the Tomb Raider

...there's also games that I'm waiting for reviews for, like Mad Max, plus a few smaller indie titles.

Rare replay

Dishonored

Madden

MGSV

Halo

Battlefront

Just Cause 3

Tomb Raider

NBA 2K

Fallout 4

Wasteland 2

Rainbow Six Siege

Metal Gear Solid 5 - $60

SNES - $40ish?

Unicornia D'Longi (Star Citizen ship) - $23,000

I don't know. What does "impulse buy" look like?

Madden, Halo 5, tomb raider, forza, mgs5 (PC) after those I'm done for the year.

Coming soon next week, MGSV: Phantom Pain and/or Mad Max (at least one of them for sure).

Later in the year, Halo 5,Rise of the Tomb Raider, Fatal Frame V and Star Fox, pretty much day one buys for me.

Other alternates I might pick up include Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Star Wars Battlefronts 3, Fallout 4, Just Cause 3 and/or Rainbow Six Siege are all strong potential candidates. I want to wait on Gears of War as that deal is good until end of year (the one where you digitally get the entire Xbox 360 collection for XBO BC). Hopefully down the line the Dishonored re-release gets a sale or two then I'll pick up.

I'll probably take advantage of maybe a unforeseen flash-sale or Deals with Gold discount on an older title, or a new sensational indie-game download or two, or maybe some Black Friday / Cyber Monday deals.

October: Yoshi's Woolly World (Wii U), Tales of Zestiria (PS4) and Dragon Quest Heroes (PS4)

November: Fallout 4 (X1)

December: Xenoblade Chronicles X (Wii U), Persona 5??? (PS4)

• Persona 4: Dancing All Night (PS Vita)
• Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (PS4)
• Fallout 4 (PS4)
• Super Mario Maker (Wii U)
• Xenoblade Chronicles X (Wii U)
• Persona 5 (PS4)

omg, i forgot about DQ Heroes. thats definitely one i'm getting.

Fallout 4 and star wars battlefront are day one purchases.

Other games im interested in are until dawn, forza 6, halo 5, rainbow 6 seige, mgsv, need for speed and super mario maker. But ill wait for them to drop in price or ask for them for xmas from the wife.

Also, im suprised that nobody has mentioned purchasing cod blops 3.

Gears Rehash Edition, Persona 4:DAN, Persona 5, Battlefront, Drake Collection, Zestiria, Disgaea 5, Until Dawn.

Zestiria and AC Syndicate in October should keep me fairly busy - still sat on Shadows of Mordor/ Metro Redux which I will play once I finish my current Witcher 3 run - if I get time MGSV will fill in the gap. Oh and Civ V is always a goto game.

MGSV is a day one, week one purchase w/e

Tales of Zestiria I'll be waiting for the Steam winter sale

Was planning on buying Xenoblade in Dec but I'll be in the middle of a big move and won't be settled in until January so I'll have to wait till then.

Until the end of the year: Whatever is cheap.

Right you're predicting 2016, it's definitely happening in 2015 then.

MGSV and Xenoblade thats all I'm buying for the rest of the year. Everything else I can wait until it's under $20. My next purchase after that will probably be Dark Souls 3 in the spring.

I'm pretty much buying 1-2 games every week from now to the end of the year. Gears and Madden tomorrow, MGS V the week after, Super Mario Maker the week after that, Forza 6 and NHL 16 the week after that, and so on.

The only games I can think of that I'm for sure buying are Halo 5: Guardians and Persona 5.

Other than that, I'm interested in MGSV and Super Mario Maker. Currently dealing with my backlog though so I won't be purchasing either of them right away. Star Wars: Battlefront is another game I'm considering getting but that's more dependent on whether or not a few of my friends pick it up right away or not.

Nothing.
There isn't really any games that are of great interest to me this year.

Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold: The Fafnir Knight
Shadowrun: Hong Kong
Gears of War: Ultimate Edition
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain
Pro Evolution Soccer 2016
Football Manager 2016
Tales of Zestiria
Xenoblade Chronicles X

Halo 5 is an immediate buy after that all other games can wait.

Super Mario Maker

Xenoblade Chronicles X

Maybe Star Fox depending on the buzz I hear upon release.

• September: Mario Maker
• December: Xenoblade

Aug thru Dec :

Got no idea what I´m going to purchase.

As a ps4 gamer it's pretty cheap. That's ok though at least I won't be disappointed by the flops like the xbone owners

I almost forgot, Destiny: The Taken King releases soon, definitely a must buy, Destiny has been pretty addictive.

yeah, nobody asked for posts that randomly shit on consoles you are too poor to buy. post your games or dont.

Min was budgeted for a while. Rare Replay in August; MGS5 September; Halo 5 October; Rise of TR and Fallout 4 in Nov; maybe Just cause 3 in December but I have 3 birthdays and Christmas shopping for family in Dec so I might not be able to.

Man I wish I had your gaming budget. I think Uncharted collection and Gears remaster will probably be like GTA5 and MCC last year. Automatic Christmas/Bday gifts.

*reads the thread* Nothing yet. I'm curious what the next TMNT game will be. I'm scared I might get another visual novel though.

1. Tekken 7 (whenever it releases), SFV and a PS4 compatible arcade stick/controller for padhacking.

2. Probably MGSV sometime

3. A gaming PC of my own... if I can dodge financial scuffles.

August - Dishonoured Definitive Edition - Xbox One

Sep - Mad Max

November - Rise Of The Tomb Raider

MGSV and Mario Maker. And if I need breaks from those I'll continue getting my ass kicked in USF4. No other planned purchases coming up

Gears of War UE, Until Dawn, MGS5, Mad Max, Uncharted Trilogy, Halo 5, AC Syndicate. These are all I need to last me until the end of the year.

No interest in Fallout 4, will rent Tomb Raider and CoD when they release.
