Hey

Well... gamings gonna get really dry over the next 2 months, barely any release interests me, 'cept maybe Brothers in Arms...I can't remember if this happened last year or not, I think it did...

Here's the list of titles released over the next 2 months which interest me.



Buzz Quiz TV
WALL-E
Guitar Hero On Tour
Brother's in Arm's Hell's Highway
Saint's Row 2

Pretty dry... sort of... I was actually wondering ''Why don't all the Autumn/Winter big releases, release near the Summer?'' I guess it could be due to the weather and everybody's outside and stuff... but most schools have a 6-9 week holiday... and there's a lotta kids who are gonna get bored. The main market for video games in Early teen (14) to early adult (23) so I don't see why they don't release games around this period, they'd make a billion gazillion munies if they did.

But that's only my opinion... what do you think? Is Summer too dry for games?

Nothing.

UT and SR, 'tis all until Christmas.

On the other hand - there's at least 2 handfuls of films coming out at the cinema I would like to watch.

UT3, Fable 2, Mercs 2, SR 2, GoW 2 and Brothers in Arms, probably the only decent games coming out for a while, GoW2 and Brothers in Arms really don't peak my interest but it's always worth giving them a try

Summer has always been short on games. Most companies release games over the winter because of the Christmas potential. Maybe now they will see how well Wii Fit and GTA have done and start releasing them mid-year. There has never been many games released in the summer.

I want Viva Pinata on the DS, and Pokemon :) But that's about it for summer.

Summer is when people go on holiday so they wouldn't pile in any money actually.

I won't have the money over holidays to buy games.
Most people go out and what not, so I'll live.

Anyway, they've been fairly dull for a while as it is.
