OK, so most of you will be getting FC3, but is there one other game yet to be released in 2012 that you can't wait to get yer grubby mitts on?

For me its Darksiders 2, the first one for me was one of the best games I have played in a VERY long time. It had a great mixture of combat, puzzles, platforming and story, with very good RPG elements, you could even fly (glide really), ride a horse and shoot the crap out of stuff from horseback.

One of the most perfect games I ever played was Zelda, the Ocarina of Time, to me Darksiders is the most recent game to replicate such a varied gameplay experience successfully. The last series of games to make me feel so giddy and excited were the Soul Reaver/Legacy of Kain games which incorporated similar elements, they were on PS1, PS2 and the old black xbox, so its been awhile.

If I have to limit to a single game, it would be Assassin's Creed 3.  I almost didn't start the series because of bladed weapons rather than firearms, but JRD and spaceboy convinced me to give it a go, and I've never regretted it since.

Games are a very personal thing, and often what floats one guy's boat doesn't do it for the next gamer.  It is often not something that is fully describable either; for me there is that "something special" about the environment, the freedom, music, and action that the AC series offers.

Yes I know what you mean about different strokes for different folks :)

I wanted it to be one game as a choice as it's so easy to rattle off a list, but it needs some serious thinking if you  can only pick one :)

I can't really think of one other than FC3, but if pressed I guess I would say Half Life Episode 3, if for no other reason than to see how things would be wrapped up. The end of Episode 2 left the story way up in the air :D

Art's choice would be mine, but I guess GTA V won't make it this year. So I go for Borderlands 2. I didn't play Borderlands one, which might be a good warm-up like I did with Batman AA before Batman AC came out.
Anyway, my choice for Borderlands 2 is because it's a coop campaign, which is something I'm desperately waiting for. Besides it should have all that is needed for a quality game that has 'that something'.  ^-^

By the time fall rolls around, the cable TV people say they might make service to my area.  If so, then I'll finally be able to do online, which might totally change my gaming strategy  >:D

That should be great!! Let's definitely hope so! You'll like it ^-^

I'm in a similar boat PZ, there's a new national broadband network currently being rolled out here with rural areas scoring high on the priority list. How long it will take to reach my neck of the woods is anyone's guess though. Hopefully it'll be before I need an oxygen mask and motorized quad to get around in... :-\\

let's just shift those continents back together and get connected  :-()

It good that FC3 is a given, so that leaves me Aliens: Colonial Marines.

There have been a few attempts at this in the past, though it never really sat right with most people. This time however, they are geeking out on Aliens and using that as a start point - they're all huge fans of the film.

It's going to a dark, intense and in your face faster than a hugger  :)

Interesting!

I had to look back what I had chosen, and it was a pleasant surprise ^-^ I am really enjoying Borderlands 1 atm :-X

Smite.

Openworldgames is my trash heap, but instead of trash it's filled with closed beta reviews, and instead of a heap it's just 2, on the floor, forever alone together.
