Haven't really been keeping up with upcoming titles but these are on my radar
Doubt I'll get them all on release day given how close together they come out
Stoked about these though.
If I can get Diablo 3 and then GTA V in the same month, phew. I'll be getting little sleep.

Only titles so far that interest me are GTAV, Watchdogs on ps4, and maybe the new assassins creed. Only played 1 and 2 a bit and found them very repetative. But Black Flag looks alright I think.

And lets not forget

farcry 3 was good until I found and did everything
same with farcry 3 blood dragon, hilarious, entertaining, but done after I found and did it all.

GTA 5 is my only definite buy. Watchdogs and AC4 look good, too. Probably gonna get Payday 2 as well.

I've been beta testing Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn for several months now and if you enjoyed FFXI
it's a pretty solid game. It's not as easy as WoW, but it's not as tough as FFXI. They've got a decent game
with this relaunch since the original FFXIV was fucking terrible.

The MMORPG's to keep an eye out for are Everquest NEXT and ArcheAge. EQN is a bit off, but this winter
they are releasing Everquest NEXT Landmark which is like Minecraft on Steroids. EQN and AA are going to
be "Sandbox" MMORPG's to some extent.

Elder Scrolls Online has some potential, but I haven't gotten my hands on it yet. The problem I see with
it is the open class system which will lead to Battlemage Syndrome as everyone becomes virtually the same.

I've also been testing WildStar which is going to be the next "BIG" MMORPG. I personally don't like it because
everything in the game is spoonfed to you worse than WoW ever did. I am sure it will sell millions though.

The Division, Watch Dogs, and GTA V do have me curious as they look good. None of the others people have
listed thus far have my interest at all.

I'm mainly playing Shadowrun Returns right now which is the best $20 you'll spend on Steam currently.

I'm also waiting for "Hearthstone" which is the upcoming online only CCG by Blizzard. It seems a bit more
simplified than say Magic: The Gathering, but watching the matches so far it seems fun and decently
strategic. Beta invites start very soon so I am hoping to get in.

Here is a link to info on Everquest NEXT and at the bottom of the page is the hour long presentation of the
game on twitch.tv which I recommend watching as the game looks fucking awesome.

Here is a Steam link for Shadowrun Returns. The game is a blast and holds true to the PnP game as well
as the SNES/Genesis game. I'm hidden in the game somewhere as well, but even I haven't found myself. :)

Fun fact: In order to make the game acceptable in Australia, they had to delete a scene where Shaundi took alien drugs. This game is great.

Thanks for the detailed report Replicant, ill definately check some of those games you listed out. The thing is i dont really have a gaming pc and from what ive noticed yet gaming on a macbook sucks balls.

This is not really a buy, since its free on PSN and XBL. You can do your own Gladiator and fight against friends/others. They said there are thousends of weapons combinations so it might be pretty interesting.

I'm really interested in hearing why you guys are going to buy Saints Row 4, the game seems so unbelievably, over the top, wack. The absurdity of ridiculousness in it is just simply too much, haha.

And don't forget it's pretty much a huge fucking DLC at full retail price.

I stopped playing after SR2. Three was retarded and SR4 looks even dumber.

I'm not sure whether or not I actually want SR4. It is basically the exact same game as SR3, but I'm interested to see how far it goes. I'd like to know how the story goes, but I have a feeling that the game might get boring after a while. I guess I'll just watch a playthrough on Youtube instead of buying it.

I'll definitely be renting it though.

GTA V a few times...im waitin til jan/feb to cop a ps4 since V is comin out. I want destiny, watch dogs and maybe that racing game drive club or whatever. I could feel completely different when the time comes.

In theory,
The way We match up on other games that don't have "Lobbies"
Is to feedback your friend(s) positively so you get matched up more often
Join a Party
321 countdown, start searching for opponent at the same time they do.
If the game isn't too popular it should work first try
otherwise you may need to try it a few times
I think the spartacus game has several arenas
just make sure you're both matchmaking in the same arena I would think it would work.
