Title says it all. There are alot of hyped games on this board, ones that everybody seems to be getting. Which ones will you not be purchasing?

I am not getting BF3, because I don't have Live and I have no prio interest.

So, what hyped game are you not looking purchasing?

I basically feel the same way about Deus Ex. I am interested but I will wait to get it because there are other games that require my attention.

Gears of War 3, the frst 2 wern't that good I'm not going to waste money on this one.

There will be a few games that I will probably have to wait for a price drop before i buy them as well.

  1. Legend of Zelda; Skyward Sword
  2. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
  3. Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection
  4. Super Mario 3D Land
  5. Mario Kart 7

I might also get some other games like Star Fox 64 3D, OoT 3D, The Sly Collection (From last year), and Donkey Kong Country Returns (Also from last year)

That's not fair. I play MMO's just as much as any other genre, don't know why you would classify them as inferior.

Both games will be great.

-Uncharted 3: after finally getting and playing through Uncharted 2 earlier this year, I found out that this is one of those games that gets by on cinematic flourish and presentation rather than its actual gaming merits. Lots of people enjoy that and their's nothing wrong with it, but it is not my cup of tea at all. Also, for such a story focused game, its story was just plain bad.

-Battlefield 3: I never could enjoy an FPS

-MW3: same as above

Zelda on Wii because 1. i don't want a Wii 2. never liked Zelda as a franchise. MW3 because i can't stand CoD in general and i will have BF3 for my multiplayer needs. Gears 3 cuz i'm completely burned on Gears (just like Halo), first Gears i won't be buying btw.

Nothing against the genre, I just don't like them.

GW 2 looks interesting, I'll admit, but it will have to seriously deliver on its promises to draw me in. The current standard for MMOs completely turns me off.

RAGE. I don't see what's so great about it.
Uncharted 3. I found the platforming in Uncharted 2 to be forced and I didn't like the shooting either.
Dark Souls. Maybe next year. Damn you, college! :x
Arkham City. Same reason as Dark Souls.
The Old Republic. MMO's are massive time sinks.

UC2 is my GOTY 2009, but I am not feeling any hype from the UC3 footage.

Same game design and art direction (third game in a row like this with very little time in between releases), focusing too much on features I don't care about such as 3D (too expensive to buy a 3DTV) and multiplayer.

The series needs more platforming that is based on skill, more open areas to explore like in UC1, way more puzzles and notebook interactivity, much better implementation of the hidden treasures, improve the stealth mechanics even more and make more areas that are possible to approach in stealth, some kind of upgrade system... basically, make it more varied and more like an adventure, less like a TPS.

Otherwise it's a top tier franchise, especially love the dynamic sound of the games, it really impacts gameplay.

The Old Republic- If it ain't free to play it ain't me to play.

Zelda-If I ever decide to buy another Wii, I'll get it then.

Everything else is fair game.

Rage? Rage, I guess. If they're going to keep fighting nonsensical wars against used games, I'm just not going to support them. I'm tired of their constant accusations and warring instead of innovation and broader appeal.AncientDozer

yeah I was interested in Rage too but after hearing about that, I have lost interest. Bethesda needs to stop overestimating their worth.

Skyward Sword. Too many PC/PS3 games to buy. I'll get it next year when I've caught up and there is a lull in new games coming out.

Skyrim - Skeptical of that game unless I see a solid game without bugs than I'll get it for PC. MW3 holding it off until next year or maybe never (depends on the time I spend on BF3)

Every single mega hyped game other than Uncharted 3 and Batman Arkham City. Those are the only two I'm getting this year. I might ask for one for Christmas and get another one on Black Friday.

Dark Souls: I only enjoyed about half the levels of Demon's Souls, so I'm worried it's going to be the same case for me with Dark Souls. Will rent it though.

Rage: It just never caught my attention.

Modern Warfare 3: I'm getting BF3 instead. Nothing against MW3, but BF3 is more of my style.

Resistance 3: The multiplayer is kind of boring, imo. Though, the SP does look sweet, so I might rent it just to play that.

Dues Ex: HR, MW3, Battlefield 3, Skyrim, on the fences for RAGE, Skyward Sword, and Forza 4 You know what's great about 2011? Even with those games I'm skipping this year, I still have Journey, Batman: AC, Gears 3, Uncharted 3, TOR, Halo: CE Ann. , and top that off with a couple of the PS3 collections: GoW Origins + ICO/SotC.

I've got a few.

Battlefield 3- Never been interested in military shooters. Not big on multiplayer myself.
MW3- I've never owned a Call of Duty title and that's not changing this year.
Deus Ex: HR- Nothing against it, just not too interested.
Dark Souls- Considering I haven't played many RPG's, I don't think this would be a good place to start.
The Old Republic- Never liked MMO's
RAGE- I'm a bit tired of shooters, nothing against it besides that.

I would pick up Uncharted 3 and Resistance 3, but I don't have a PS3. Still on the fence about Gears 3 since I've seen enough shooters for now, but I might pick it up purely for co-op. I may wait for Skyward Sword, too since DK and Metroid are my preferences when it comes to Nintendo.

BF3 because it has Online passes. And pretty generic looking.

MW3 - Because it's the same game for 60$.

Halo HD Rehash - Same game with copy/pasted Reach MP.

Skyrim and Skyward swords for me :D!

MW3, Skyrim, and Forza 4. The first 2 because the franchises have disappointed me greatly and Forza because I just won't have time. I may get it later.

MW3 I have gotten every CoD and the last 2 are just no vanilla and boring unless it's offered for me free(like black ops was) I'm not interested in the slightest.
