    It's now the final quarter of 2007, and it's typically during this time of year that the highest profile games are released. We've already experienced a few of them (Halo 3, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass), and plenty more are being released before the end of the year.

    So what are you looking forward to (or hoping to buy)? Personally, now that Super Smash Bros. Brawl has been delayed until 2008, I'm thinking of picking up Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn and Soulcalibur Legends, both for Wii - (Super Mario Galaxy goes without saying).

      I've been looking foward to alot of games this holiday season, but the one I had most anticipation for was Brawl. Now that it's delayed I really don't care about games this year.
      Yup... The power of Brawl.

          Crysis. <3 The game looks technologically amazing, but besides that it also has some of the same concepts as Far Cry, which is good.

            Assassin's Creed and maybe Crysis. Creed looks awesome.

              Radiant Dawn, Galaxy, maybe Prime 3, maybe Super Paper Mario, and if I upgrade my graphics card or somehow magically get a 360, maybe even the Orange Box from VALVe. Amazingly, the new processor I installed is just fast enough to run it. I'd be getting it mainly for Portal and Team Fortress 2 seeing as I've never played any Half Life game, and I've never been too interested in them.

                  Do you mean what we are looking forward to actually buying and playing or just looking forward to being released? If it's the latter, than I can't wait for Galaxy and Radiant Dawn(although Fire Emblem won't be released in Europe this year). I'll be playing Twilight Princess, so that is what I'm most looking forward to.

                  I didn't know Brawl had been delayed. That's a shame, but if it means making the game better that's fine by me.

                    Maybe it's for a worldwide release? I hope so.

                      Other than the games I've listed, I want Brawl and AW:DoR. Too bad they're both comming out next year. :silence: Ah, well, there's always my birthday.

                        Darn, forgot to mention Soul Calibur Legends and Bwii in my previous post. Two very promising games.

                          The only games consoles I have with games being released on them is the PS2 and DS. I don't see much for Christmas that's getting me excited.

                            That's because you fail. The simpsons game is also looking pretty cool. I thought it was based on the film, but it has a totally different plot. It's out on Halloween in the US.

                                  I looking forward to mainly Wii games.
                                  The new Medal of Honour with 32 player online and Cod4, I'll pick up FE and Mario Galaxy but meh. There just aren't many good FPS's for the Wii yet. Also looking forward to the new Resident Evil for Wii.

                                    Damn, I also forgot to mention Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 for Wii. There's a game that has a chance of being really really good, but also of sucking real hard. We'll have to see.

                                      Oh! Unreal Tournament 3. My friends still play 2K4 (got bored of it), and are currently counting down for 3. I'll just install their copy on my PC.

                                        Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
                                        Super Mario Galaxy

                                        Those are the two games I'm really looking forward to. I'd put Brawl up there, but it isn't coming out during the holiday season anymore.

                                          I'm looking forward to Project Gotham Racing 4. I know it's already out, but it's a game i'll be getting with my 360.

                                              SSBB is for next year, so scrath that.
                                              No idea what Professor Layton is.
                                              Mario Galaxy is required if you call yourself a gamer.
                                              That leaves Guitar Hero III, Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, or Zack and Wiki, which comes down to your preference of music, RPG, or quirky-fun puzzle game.

                                              Hope that helps. :P

                                                    You better get to buying that Wii. They're going to be harder and harder to find as Christmas draws closer.

                                                      Same here. It's the only reason that I'm buying such a kickass laptop for my room.

                                                            Professor Layton is some sort of super awesome puzzler/adventure game for the DS. My friend is getting Rock Band, so I don't need Guitar Hero...Right now it's between Galaxy, FE, and Zack and Wiki. I haven't played FE9 yet, so FE 10 probably won't make too much sense...Zack and Wiki is apparent;y very good, but very short...Galaxy looks pretty good. I guess I'm not as psyched as everyone else for it...

                                                              I will really like to see how Blizzard makes us kill Arthas. Making us kill him with our normal characters is just unbelievable, and I will be VERY dissapointed.

                                                              But since DS brought of WotLK (didn't mention it cuz GL said this holiday season) I'm anticpating it because:
                                                              1)THE DISCIPLINE TREE IS GETTING A REVAMP. It's so dissapointing now. I'm sure every priest only use it as a supporting tree.
                                                              2) Inscription. Seems interesting
                                                              3) Arthas
                                                              Not really that excited about the Death Knight. I'm waiting for the Acolyte and Cleric (I only play classes with MP ^^)

                                                              Other than that, BC had me more exited honestly.
