mirror's edge looks quite good

I disagree. This comment should be revoked. Runtlocks, I award you a 4/10 for this comment and a 2/10 for all of yours so far. Merely because they do not seem logical.

[runtlocks]

bladestorm came out a while ago, doesn't look very interesting to be honest

bladestorm came out a while ago, doesn't look very interesting to be honest

really? because I was going to present that game to a friend of mine (geek) and couldn't find it for him. Do they have it in main gaming stores?

 

[stazi]

yeah they would, i think. shit game though. bad reviews.

 

[runtlocks]

they definitely sell it at jb

eb have speculated september for release of rock band here in aus

Beyond Good and Evil 2 has been in development for a year now, but still needs to be greenlighted

 

[stazi]

and now rock revolution, and YET ANOTHER set of drums to choose between

 

[blakegman]

may aswell just learn real drums.

 

[runtlocks]

i haven't the patience, room nor the disipline. too much noise also

kinda sad when ya need a bunch of colourful circle things popping up to teach you how to play. but whatever really

looking fantastic. bravo ubisoft, bravo

 

[jumb]

I thought Farcry WAS a tech demo.

 

[zingerburger]

It was a decent game in its own right. Just the second half of it sucked pretty bad.

GEARS OF WAR 2

looks awsome. will take no.1 on XBL leaderboard for a long time.

 

[stazi]

this is coming in 09, but it looks to be exactly my kind of game. tech demo for it looks amazing:

Now that we're half-way through the year, I thought I'd update my top 10 most wanted games:

1. Mirror's Edge
2. Backbreaker
3. Fallout 3
4. Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust
5. Brutal Legend (x360)
6. Fable 2
7. Gears of War 2
8. Blitz: The League II
9. Viva Pinata 2
10. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed


Other Notable Games:
Alan Wake (x360) - didn't put it in there as who knows when/if it'll come out
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts - should be a good game, but I never played the first so don't have many expectations for this one
Soulcalibur IV - if I loved fighting games it'd be in the list. It's gotten 10/10 on 1UP
FIFA 09 - I guess they're out every year, but this year's version should be amazing based on how UEFA 08 played
NBA2k9 - as above, although this time I'm more excited because I gave NBA 2k8 a miss, and quite a bit of gameplay evolution should take place if I skipped a year
Call of Duty: World at War - treyarch (sp) kinda suck, but the game may still be brilliant
