2010 was good, 2011 will be ridiculous. Here's why

[plasmid303]

It's not looking too shabby for movies either...

2010 was a ____ty year for movies, 2011 practically looks better by default.

 

[Something Sexy]

Diablo 3 will be the end of me

Same here!

Well it was totally out of blue, I was naming games I was interested in getting and come back with "It's a microsoft exclusive only"

 

[DeltaForceChung]

There's something for everybody, if nothing gets substantially delayed, of course.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron
Child of Eden



I've definitely glossed over a lot of smaller games...

DAMN . . .

Virtually all sequels . . .

Whatever happened to innovation and originality?

Did Bobby Kotick pretty much ____ up the entire gaming industry?

It's not so bad. There are definitely a lot of sequels, but like I said in that post, I've probably glossed over a lot of less-hyped original titles. 2011 should be comparable to 2010 in that regard.

[Starkiller]

I think just the first quarter alone of 2011 is stronger than all of 2010.

Dead Space 2
Killzone 3
Little Big Planet 2
Marvel vs. Capcom 3

And with games like:
Portal 2
Infamous 2
Mortal Kombat


And with Resistance 3 and Uncharted 3 hitting in fall, it's a one two knock out punch.

2010 games really let me down. And there's a lot of GOTY material here just to start of 2011 with. I need to catch up on my Christmas games to get ready for double onslaught of Dead Space 2 and KZ3.

 

[The Josh]

I enjoyed 2010 for games lots of really good games that I had a good time playing. 2011 is shaping up as more of the same which is fine by me.

 

[Macularius]

Dude, you completely forgot homefront. Which will likely own them ALL.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

L.A. Noire & Uncharted are my most anticipated games in 2011. L.A. has a lot of potential to be GOTY, oh and my GOTY for 2010 is RDR.

I'm very much interested in Homefront and L.A. Noire, both seem be to flying under the radar, but not much has been shown from either yet.

 

[plasmid303]

Don't see the excitement for Homefront outside of the outlandish marketing stunts.

 

[DeltaForceChung]

As of now, there are only two games I'm looking forward to.

GHOST RECON: FUTURE SOLDIER
X-COM

 

[Starkiller]

Don't see the excitement for Homefront outside of the outlandish marketing stunts.

The gameplay shown looks awesome.

 

[Vader AL]

Under a month until Dead Space 2!

 

[keysta75]

Vader Al did you play the demo. Oh my Lawd! I can't wait.

 

[Starkiller]

I played the demo...nothing new.
