I'll be picking up Mercs 2, Fallout 3, Far Cry 2, Littlebigplanet, CoD5 and BioShock PS3 myself and getting Motorstorm 2 and Resistance 2 for Christmas.

Doesn't bother me, I'd rather buy one game, complete it, spend time on it, then have been able to save cash for the next

Hmm Fabel looks pretty much just the same as last time. Saints Row should be ok. Gears i hope is better than the first and COD5 look really good.

[Fehm]

COD5

:eusa_danc

[MrPinkPanther]

CoD 5 for me. They are releasing them all in October/November delibratly. The summer is infamous for bad game sales. October/November are the perfect months, it's far away enough from xmas so that parents wont hassle their kids not to buy games and get them for xmas but close enough to xmas that games wont seem old when you get them. Games have a fairly short period after their release when everyone buys them and then suddenly stops. EG if you havent bought GTA5 by now its doubtable you will because its 'old'.

Fable is nothing like last time

Combat is completly different now, you get extra EXP for doing a "cool kill" so if you slash someone up then finish them off by shooting them in the face you get awarded bonus EXP, the map is 10-20 times bigger than the first game, they have completly removed the mini map so you have a gold bread crumb trail leading to your next main mission and your dog to show you extra bits like enemies nearby and stuff

You can have children that grow up to a point and change alignment like you do, it's fully free roaming so you can go anywhere unlike in Fable 1, you can swim now so you could get aross a river faster than walking all the way down the path then crossing a bridge

There is loads more to Fable 2 than Fable 1 had, the only real similarities are that they're both Fable games, Fable 2 has things people will notice from Fable 1 and the graphics are in the same style

If anything CoD and GoW will be almost exactly the same as the previous games but with new maps and different weapons, Fable is probably the only game out of the ones you listed to have changed on a massive scale

SvR 2009;
