    Hello gentlemen, and ladies if there is any.

    I'd like to discuss about the upcoming games for this year, tell what are you expecting, what do you think should be done, any sequel's you'd like to talk about.

    Well... I shall start off:

    Deus Ex: Human Revolution - The trailers? Amazing. What I'm expecting about it? That Square Enix doesn't fuck up the whole story.

    Adam Jensen is quite a nice character looks-wise, and that augmented arm is just stunning, the first trailer that was actually a teaser, was very nice, a techno-baby, or something like that, the second one, now a true trailer, was mindfucking, Icarus' wings, mechs, riots, chaos, all-in-one package for a perfect story.

    Pokemon Black and White. No need for any other game.

    So far, Witcher 2 and Portal 2. I don't have any consoles, so most of releases of 2011 do not concern me at all. Oh, and probably Skyrim, but it looks like consolitis hit it full-force, even harder than Oblivion.

    Dragon Age 2, Diablo III, and Grim Dawn, if it comes out in 2011. It might just be the best basis for our Arcanum 2, or maybe be something of a really spiritual successor (it's supposedly a little Victorian themed?)

    I'm excited about the game 'Operation Enduring Freedom'. I hear it's very immersive, and requires at least 8,760 hours to complete! Also, you get payed to play it and it doesn't even require an internet connection! And the fun doesn't have to stop there, because the developer, U.S. Army, offers a wide array of DLC packages. Expansions like 'PTSD', 'Stop-Loss', and 'Physical Therapy' to name a few. And unlike WoW, if you die while playing the game your funeral and expenses will be covered by the developer! What a bargain!

    AWESOME! But what makes me sad is that this is only a bait for youngsters to join the army, what a great idea they had!

    Despite all this, the reviews I read were overwhelmingly negative. I was going to try it out for a while as an EOD character, myself.

    Awesome post :)

    Arcanum: Revolution and OpenArcanum might get released this year, at least some tech demo, so I'm definitely looking forward...

    They will most certainly be ground-breaking, when I joined this community, I couldn't believe people were still so interested in Arcanum. Hope it comes out great!

    And RunAwayScientist, you're completely right, the games are getting more and more, say, "stock". Not much great ideas coming up, you know Dead Space? It's astouding, but it's nothing new, that gives me the feel of something lacking.

    Deus Ex, it is 11 years old, and still kicks-ass, see, graphics are not the most important thing.

    Pokemon: Black & White.

    Close your eyes to all else.

    This should be cool too, I'm not a hige fan of the Pokémon series, but I play it once in a while.

    I was reading the game news today, and I can't wait to see that new game Brink, from what I saw in the teasers and trailers, this game is going to blow my mind.

    Infinity is not released, and is currently holding a title of vaporware. I have NO idea why you would recommend "playing" it.

    Gotta fight the man! Can't let those big companies that started out small once have all the control. Who do they think they are? It's not like they spent the last decade or more growing by releasing games people enjoyed.

    We need more companies like Troika to produce well-intentioned but unfinished and broken games, instead.

    They only released a combat prototype on a very early version of the engine. It has almost none of the features shown even in the latest videos.
