....why aren't any "high profile" games coming out for such a long period >< The only new game that I've played in like it seems 2-2.5 months is The Amazing spider that one was just "ok".
Sigh... dumbasses.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
This is pretty accurate. Sales pretty much explode in Q4 with Black Friday and Christmas sales.The summer months are always dry with games. All the publishers want their game right before christmas so all the kiddies can have their parents buy the games for them at full price

I've played some old game like Deux Ex 1 and fear 1 actually but I kinda want something new.
Also yes they want to release near chrismas for the kiddies but think about this.
Those kiddies are home from school for the summera atm and I bet a lot fo them are bored as fu*k.
I'm not saying I expect like 2 new games per week during the summer but atleast 1 per month ? Thats reasonable, yeah?
If everyone release at the same time near the winter holiday you can bet A LOT of games will flop big because few people can afford to buy 10 games in 2 weeks...
Nah they are just being dumbasses.

Control your defensive attitude..it only makes you look worse. As for good games, what about some arcade games...any peek your interest? Just gotta know where to look.ill tell you whats wrong with them ,
they release to many damn first person shooter games, thats exactly whats wrong with them ,,
and ya ive noticed that to , back on the snes era we had games to be played all the time , now adays ,, it trickles,
and when i say trickles we may get 4 -6 good games a year , ,
on good yrs its 10 good games -20 good games but this isnt one of those years ,,
2010 was like the best year for gaming and on 3ds for 2012 , ,
outside 3ds this year it is very very bleak , ,
sure i ate up all the good wii releases like zelda marioparty 9 outside that ,
a dry spell has been put on us ,
and these developers need to take notes from the snes era,
cause thats when we had good games as a whole,
we never were over ran by a particular genre, i remember how many racing games i owned as a kid well i still own them ,
and when i stack my snes game library up its about even , add some rpgs my library would dethrone ps3 and 360 for sure ,
its to bad all these games now adays are controlled by one franchise in particular----call of duty,
every where i look , theres a war game oh wait it dont stop there, there was 007 games back then that didnt rely on cod but now , , activision has it and --- what else is new its james bond with call of duty elements, even goldeneye,
which is why im not holding my breath any more for that franchise,
nor cod for that matter ,,
t his summer was lame , and the fall looks to be no different ,
heck outside the holidays i dont see any big titles for me , that is not on a handheld
, the console market has dried up completely game wise , very seldem do i buy new games any more because their just not worth it ,
i m not going to spend another 60 dollars on call of duty mark my words, and i will not wait for ms or sony to make their move im buying a wii u maybe that will solve the drought,
sure seams like it ,

I don't know what your crappy taste would define as good but go on keep crying like a spoiled brat, it amuses me this + 1 tc is a shallow noob who thinks buying movie tie-in games is a good idea :lol:You haven't been into video games very long have you? It's always like this for video games. Most of games you want come near the end of the year.

Amazing Spider Man is a good game, so I don't get why you would say such a thing.

This entire year has been dry and boring.
The only high profile games(that i can remember) are Mass Effect 3, Diablo 3 and Max Payne 3. Besides that, there have been very little(if any) high profile games.

Yeah this year has been pretty lackluster. I did pick up Max Payne 3 and did enjoy it but aside from that I have been playing all games from previous years.

And the following depending on how you define high profile: Ghost Recon, Lollipop Chainsaw, Prototype 2, Dragon's Dogma, Starhawk, Xenoblade, Last Story, Witcher 2 (360), Lego Batman 2.

I suggest you open your out look on what games to buy, there has been plenty of games to buy in 2012 and yes most of them aren't block busters but if you expect every game to be a block buster hit then you got in the wrong hobby.

It still one of the best if not the best Spider-man games ever made Mr. mega pro HARDCORE not a noob at all gamer TO THE MAX.
It was just ok for me but they really tried hard. A lot of arkham city elements in there. If it wasn't for the awful level design and the predictable story it could have been a top notch game.

Never said block buster. By high profile I mean full retail games.
Anyway stop treating me like someone new to the scene and got my 1st game 6 months ago. I've been gaming for 15 years and spend thousands of hours in certain games ffs. There just literally hasn't been anyting comming out this summmer. Its ridiculous. We have gotten atleast few games every summer in past years as far as I can remember.

Oh and a gamer who wants new games= cry baby?Its not like the entire GAMING community is pretty much based on complaints... oh wait! How f*cking stupid are you.
Everyone b*tches about something at some point, deal with it...Oh and stfu, you are making less and less sence with every post. :P
This! :D Can't wait for Darksiders 2! Already pre-ordered my copy :DDarksiders 2 is right around the corner. That's huge.

Prototype 2: I don't think so.
Dragon's Dogma: Maybe...
Starhawk: I don't think so.
Xenoblade: Nope.
Last Story; Nope.
Witcher 2: already had a release last year, so definitely not.
Lego Batman 2: LAWLNO.
Though, of course, these can be(or rather, were) some of your most anticipated games, but that doesn't really make them high profile.

If you've been gaming for 15 years you'd know summer (June/July and sometimes Aug) is the slowest time for publishers to release games. Also you thought The Amazing Spider-Man was a "high profile" game...uhh sure....maybe for die hard Spider-Man fans.
June and July are the dry months, which until a few years ago literally meant that but now we have Steam and Amazon sales. It's now discount season.
Also Sleeping Dogs, Darksiders 2, and Guild Wars 2 are next month. 3 very high profile releases.
2012 is the sh!ttiest year for game ever... funny how it was supposed to be the best ever before they delayed everything.silversix_
This year is fantastic. At the moment it's tied with 2007 for being best year in gaming. 3DS and PC games galore this year.
Same here.. I've got tons of games that I haven't even started yet...Don't you have enough games already?? My back log is huge!! :?

In the OP's peanut of a mind, "high-profile" equates to a million-dollar advertising campaign, hundreds of press releases, dozens of trailers to generate hype, and a multimillion dollar budget. If you were a true gamer you'd know there's plenty that has come out this summer and plenty more to come.princeofshapeir
You should learn to read you dumb f*ck. I've said that by high profile I mean a full retail game.
Sleeping Dogs, Dark Souls, Darksiders 2...all next month.....why aren't any "high profile" games coming out for such a long period >< The only new game that I've played in like it seems 2-2.5 months is The Amazing spider that one was just "ok".

It's been delayed 2-3 times, usually games that get delayed people start to lose ineterest in it.
