"Next Year is going to rule..."

But my poor wallet is going to get gangraped by all the releases :(

(these are what stand out for me)

Jan:
DOOM3 - only interested in the online really.
The Bards tale - keeping my eye on this. Looks decent.


Feb:
KoTOR 2 - Enough said.
Mercenaries - Another one to watch methinks.
Forza Motorsport - Enough said.
Unreal Championship 2 - looking rather nice.
Destroy All Humans! - This looks great
The Punisher
Oddworld Stranger

Mar:
Star Wars: Republic Commando - this looks excellent. Can't wait for Live.
Timesplitters: Future Perfect - This. Will. Rock.
Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory - See above.
Op Flashpoint: Cold War crisis - Probably past it, but worth a mention anyway.
Conker: Live & Reloaded
Star Wars: Galaxies - I fear there will be a Monthly fee, which will put me off.
Far Cry: Instincts

Apr:
DoA: Ultimate - worth a mention because of Live support.

TBA:
Battlefield: Modern Combat
Star Wars Lego
San Andreas
Halo 2 DLC (most likely Premium)
Phoenix
New game from Ex-bungie employees (the one about the Zombie)



Phew, please feel free to comment on the above titles or add your own anticipated releases. roll on 2005!

Does anyone actually play Operation Flashpoint online? Last time I checked it was pretty dead, unless it was gamespy being gay.

Beware Doom 3.
The single-player is, on the pc at least, more of a tech demo than an awesome FPS, and multiplayer is limited to 8people per map.

KOTOR II and Chaos Theory.

CT on Live is all I'll need.

Maybe TS3.

I can't wait for TS:FP. You're right, it will rule.

It does have a monthly fee, however, this is the least you have to worry about.

You can look forward to crap support by Sony Online who seem to ignore the majority of players comments, the feeling that you are in fact more a background extra in the Star Wars universe than an actual important character while having fun spending hours grinding away experience points to reach the next level.

Unless it comes with the expansion pack which adds Space exploration, a feature completely absent from the game for a year, I wouldn't hope for much from this one.

Everything = rubbish

TS3 is one i'm looking out for :)

I almost forgot Hitman : Blood money.

Damn that game's gonna rock!

Contracts was fun but the rehashed levels felt really old and kinda spoiled half the game for me. A true sequel though with all new levels is gonna be excellent.
