Tony Hawk comes out year after year but last year Skate came out and totally blew me away. But I only have to demo.... I'm dying to get into it. But I was afraid Skate 2 would be out exactly one year after Skate 1 came out, making my purchase not worth the money. The good news is that it's planned for '09. Hopefully November '09 which, like Gears of War, is a good 2 year cycle will be when it's released.

The trailer for it was brief but completely blew me away. FIrst of all, like Tony Hawk Underground (which is probably the best tony hawk), you can get off your board. But different and probably better from Tony Hawk you get off your board for more than pinpointing a starting spot for your trick run, you also use it to push objects. I hope they don't let you get off the board as part of a combo multiplier which THU did. Anyways there's so much going for this game and series I can't wait to play more of it.

To add to EA's credibility, who has heard anything about Mercenaries 2 lately? I'm guessing that means more development time, which rocks. I can wait forever as long as I get a great game that I'll play for just as long.

I like the new guy that headed the company late last year.

Wishlist:

-Too Human (I might trade in GTA IV towards it)

-Super Street Fighter 2 HD Remix

-These are all up in the air: Gears of War 2, Mirror's Edge, Braid, Castle Crashers, and Skate.

Fallout 3 and Silent Hill are interesting and I'll probably rent those.

I can't wait for the 360 dashboard redesign so I can be in college with my friends and watch Netflix with everyone after going to dinner or playing games earlier in the night. This definitely means I'm bringing my Aerobed to college this year. Much more comfy and suitable than the floor of the school's desk chairs.
