well if half of those see the light of day in '06 that would be bad ass, all of them look pretty sweet. hell if i can get my hands on quake wars this year, i'd be a happy "camper" :D

[Seoulstriker]

dude, Rainbow Six, Prey, Castle Wolfenstein 2, UT2007, Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter... this is gonna be one helluva year!

[Mr. Hunt]

Call of Juarez... that is all I had to read about and I want it.

[jAkUp]

You can scratch Rainbow Six off that list... what a dissapointment. Some pretty graphics though ;)

[Lfctony]

Same here jAkUp, AI was horrible in the demo. And it has a cartoony feel to it. Previous R6 titles meant one mistake and you would die. I didn't get that feeling in R6:4. I'm skipping it, and I'm recommending to my brother to skip it as well, he's a long time R6 fan.

What a sad year for the FPS genre if that is all we can expect. 3 of those titles look good. Why are they listing expansion packs as games anyway??

[Marvel_us]

I don't know about you but I see more than 3 that have me excited for this year. GRAW, UT2007, Prey, Crysis, Huxley, Quake Wars and STALKER.

UT2007 & Quake Wars alone will probably keep me busy for a couple months.

[lmetza]

Hmm TF2...

[Edge]

Team Fortress 2 and Duke Nukem Forever...uhh yeah, they're reaching a bit :p

[anticitizenzero]

I remember reading somewhere that Crysis is planned to come out this year, a bit after vista is released. I would be nice if a developer would actually release something early instead of late like they always have

[Burnt_Ram]

Duke Nukem Forever, yah what a joke ! not freakin likely ... (would be nice though)

[sytaylor]

DNF FTW!

Seriously will we ever see that damn game?

[PaiN]

..that's a whole other thread ;)

It will be a decent year for PC gamers. On top of a few decent FPSers and expansions there are two major AAA RPG's on the way, ES: Oblivion and NWN2, where I plan to spend most of my time :D

[jAkUp]

GR, UT2007 and Crysis FTW :D

[wnd]

DNF FTW!

Seriously will we ever see that damn game?

From what I've heard it comes bundled with Windows Longho^W Vista.

[Burnt_Ram]

Wow, you just might be the least gullible person Ive ever seen.

[Marvel_us]

What's the latest on UT2007? EB has an October release date. Anyone know if that's about right or not?

[jAkUp]

I hope not :( I was hoping for a summer release

[Bottle]

They forgot the best one to be looking forward to: Armed Assault (the expanded version of Operation Flashpoint)
