Title: Upcoming Releases (That I'm excited about)
Post by: darko on January 18, 2012, 08:49:40 am
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning: Feb 2nd (Multi)

Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3DS: Feb 21st (3DS)

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2: Feb 28th (DS)

I'm really excited about Devil Survivor 2. I didn't even realize it was coming out until I was on Amazon last night.

What is everyone else excited about next month?

I hate to say that I've been so busy lately that nothing is on my radar. :(

To be fair I didn't realize any of those were coming out so soon. Thank you Amazon.

February 28: SSX  - the original got me to buy a PS2 earlier than I had planned, won't have a lot of time to play though because of the next game on my list...
March 6: Mass Effect 3 - possibly my favorite series of this generation

If Max Payne hadn't been delayed I'd put that on here. There isn't a whole lot coming out until March, at least not anything I care about. I'm sure I'll take a look at Soul Calibur, I always do. I generally don't bother with demos but I'm considering the Kingdoms of Amalur one since it unlocks some items in Mass Effect 3.

The only game that I'm waiting for right now is Diablo III. And Blizzard seems to be taking their sweet time with it. :(

For games coming out this year that we already know about that I want... there's actually quite a few in what's currently announced:

Street Fighter X Tekken (specifically the Vita version... who doesn't want to play as Pac-Man in a Capcom fighting game?)
Final Fantasy XIII-2
Borderlands 2 (my most anticipated game this year... yes, more than Diablo 3)
Anarchy Reigns
Lollipop Chainsaw
Metal Gear Rising Revengeance
Skullgirls
Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 2
Kid Icarus: Uprising
Luigi’s Mansion 2
Diablo 3
Fortune Summoners (coming soon on Steam)
Torchlight 2
Xenoblade Chronicles

There's a couple more, but mostly that I'm considering renting rather than buying (even some of those I named here may be rentals).

Metal Gear Rising.....assuming it actually gets released!

I've played about 10 hours of Xenoblade. I would recommend it to anyone who has a Wii.

Now that Platinum Games took over the project, I'm actually pretty hopeful about it. And it's supposed to actually be playable at E3 so that's a good sign.

As a series, Metal Gear is my favorite so I hope so too!

I heard about the E3 demo. Hopefully we get some good news after people get their hands on it.

I'm interested in it though I prefer more stealth action in my Metal Gear. MGS4 Raiden is a total badass and i love the franchise so ill be getting it either way.

I forgot about Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, that should be pretty fun. Heck, I was surprised to see it was coming out in February.
Not sure about Atelier Meruru yet though... partly because I have yet to play Rorona and Totori, even though I really liked all the Atelier games I played before. Maybe I'll just skip those and go straight to Meruru.

I'm also looking forwards to Diablo3 and heart of the swarm. The latter probably won't come out soon, knowing Blizzard.

I have yet to play a bad game from NISA.  I'm quite the Atelier fan.

Nothing...   Maybe if I had a 3DS I'd be excited for new games.

I'm actually looking forward to Lego Batman 2. I really enjoyed the first one and hopefully they will just do more of the same for this one.

Now that I have a 3DS, I'm actually really stoked for Snake Eater 3D and Resident Evil: Revelations. Also I pray that they release the upcoming Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime sequel in the States, I loved that game on DS and am almost tempted to import the original on on GBA, except it's text heavy and I still haven't learned to read Japanese.

Radiant Historia IS getting reprinted in March. You can add it to your cart at Amazon now and they'll ship it to you when it comes out.

If you want it I wouldn't mess around and wait for it. It will likely be a very limited reprint.

The first one is so good!  I didn't understand why no one I knew had heard of it or played it.  A little kid-like but so addictive and fun.

And I have Radiant Historia, @darko, but wondering if I should buy an extra sealed copy just because...

@desocietas

I would say it depends on the number of copies that are printed. It's an excellent game that will more than likely be sought after in several years. BUT...most of the reprints from Atlus end up being pretty easy to get a hold of (Disgaea on PS2 for example).

Ah, good point.  And I don't think they change much (if anything) between the prints, right?  I wonder if it'd be obvious if mine was printed before this month or not.  Would be more obvious if I had the launch bundle with the soundtrack :(
