Well, this year is off to a great start with gaming. Bayonetta and Darksiders are excellent and its not even the middle of January!
Before April I have quite a few games that I must order and play.
The game I’m looking most forward to is Heavy Rain.
Why am I looking forward to this the most? Well, Farenheit (or Indigo Prophecy it was called in the US) is one of my favourite adventure games. Such a compelling story and gameplay, so compelling in fact, I finished it in about 3 days. The graphics look amazing from what I’ve seen so far plus the constantly changing story shall be interesting if not very, very stressful.
Release Date: 24/02
Another game I’m looking forward too is Bioshock 2.
As you’ve already seen, if you’ve read more of this blog that is, I’ve already pre-ordered this. I’m really hoping it has the same quality as the first one plus the multiplayer modes seem pretty interesting, despite the fact that the only multiplayer games I play are WoW and Team Fortress 2.
Release Date: 9/02
Another PS3 preorder which is going to set me back the most is God Of War 3: Trilogy Edition.
I’ve really only played about 70% the way through God Of War 1 but that I thoroughly enjoyed. In this country, the remastered editions of God Of War 1 and 2 aren’t being released (well, its not 100% known just yet) so the two ways to get it are with this massive pre-order or by ordering from overseas. Sure, the latter is perfectly viable and way cheaper but this pack is just too awesome to pass up. Apart from the 3 games, the awesome packaging it comes with skins, postcards, an artbook and all 3 soundtracks. Totally worth its nearly $AU250 value!
Release Date: Sometime in march.
One game I’m not that looking forward but thats mainly because I haven’t finished the first one is Mass Effect 2. I’m quite sure it will be a top-notch game as everything Bioware does is amazing its just that I would feel kinda wrong playing it without finishing the first one. I think i’ll probably wait until it hits Steam at a sale price. Might give me enough time to finish the first one!
Release Date: 28/01
I almost forgot one, a very important one at that. Final Fantasy 13. There really isn’t much I can say apart from how awesome this should be. Although I do wish Nobuo Uematsu would do Final Fantasy music again.
Release Date: 09/03
I think that’s about it for pre-orders for now. Uni starts again on the first of March so game playing will be cut down severly 
But until then lots shall ensue.
I do believe that Mistwalker (Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon) will be making an announcement in the near future about a large project so I can safely assume that whatever they announce will be on my pre-order list.
