Games I am Looking forward to this year Part 2

Here is the continuation of the list.

9. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
-Me and Elder Scrolls have only just made up. I didn't like the third game of the series so much and only praised how the world and quests were done while having a very poor made story. When Oblivion came I was just taken back by it. Graphics were high depth, controls were easier, story was decent, and the gameplay of traveling around the world with so many quests was enough for me to spend 6 months playing the game none stop. In the fifth one things are a bit different apparently. They're now doing the whole "Skill by doing" system and getting rid of the class system which I feel disappointed in. The whole skill thing has never really been a friend of mine so already I'm worried. What else I know is that weather will play a big role as well as dragons which are always a plus in my book. So good or bad? I'll have to find out.

9. Batman Arkham City
-Do I really need to say anything? Batman's Arkham Asylum was the first time I ever really enjoyed playing a game with Batman in it. It kept true to the Batman atmosphere and it perfectly mixed stealth and combat in a great single player game. Now we get all this, but in a city? My geek mind just went ballistic. If the first game was great, then I feel that Batman Arkham City will be just amazing.

10. Deus Ex: Human Revolution
-I'm going to say this now. Deus Ex is the greatest game for any Game Designer to study. I am serious, this game is the Game Designer's bible. Fantastic plot, amazing gameplay, great symbolism and theme, and one of the few games to mix narrative and gameplay together perfectly. Now after so long we get more of the transmogrification of humanity in cybernetic future where every action and move you make will have an effect in the world around you. Expect a blog about the series from me sometime after the games release explaining why this is the ultimate Game Designer game.

11. Diablo III
-I've been waiting for this game for too long. The new engine looks great and the fact that this game will also feature Battle.net like Starcraft II only further' s my need for it. Although you can't no longer hire NPC's, instead they come to you, you can still follow the same gameplay with new mechanics such as the Skill Runes combined with the new classes like Demon Hunter, it's sure to not get borning. Especially since the Battle.net feature will allow you to have random created battles and dungeons. The only thing I am disappointed in is that there is no Necromancer class.....yet

12: Mass Effect 3
-The goddamn best for last. Mass Effect 3 is going to be the final chapter of Commander Shepherd and his war against the Reapers. This time the battle goes to Earth as Shepherd must now unite the galaxy and face the greatest threat known to all sapient life while breaking a million year old chain of death. Every action you did in the first two games will finally come full circle and while this is last game you play as Commander Shepherd, this will not be the final game of the Mass Effect universe. I am already counting the days for when I will get this game, put it in my xbox and play until I die.

Those are the games I am looking forward to the most. What games are you looking forward too? Any of these similar?

Tell me about it.

Later
