    There are going to be a Hell of a lot of games coming out this next season, and since I have no money to blow on every game I'm anticipating, I'll have to choose wisely which games I'll add to my collection. Having a PS2, XBOX, and a PC is a Hell of a hard time to keep up with individual games. So, if you are like me and choose your games as wisely as you pick out shoes, what games will you be looking out for?

    <div align=center>[​IMG]</div>

    1. Halo 2 - Obviously, I think everyone will be, it's so hyped I try not to read too much on it. Pre-ordered the limited edition, and I need it before I wet myself again. Nothing much I can say, it's Halo 2 for Christ's sake.

    <div align=center>[​IMG]</div>

    2. Metal Gear Solid 3 - Snake Eater - How can you resist? It's a fucking Metal Gear game. Hideo Kojima, probably my icon of gaming, I will follow in his footsteps until his death, so I must, MUST get this game. No doubt in my mind. The game looks to be a completely different step from normal stealth games. The "hide in shadows" concept is getting to be a little overused, Snake Eater will put you in the jungle and make you use different types of camoflouge uniforms to conceal yourself. Survival stealth, as I like to call it.

    <div align=center>[​IMG]</div>

    3. Half-Life 2 - I guess I'll have to wait until I get a better computer, because even with the system requirements relatively low on HL2, my computer is at least 5 years old. Half-Life was my 2nd favorite game of all time and I must, must get the updated engine. Every screenshot, video and preview I've read has not let me down.

    <div align=center>[​IMG]</div>

    4. Fable - Been waiting a long time for this, since it was Project Ego 4 years ago, two reviews are already out by IGN and TeamXBOX and both got a 9.1/10. Waiting for the pre-order just like Halo 2. :) Fable is a game in which looks as beautiful as it should be played, but I'll have to wait to claim that point more direct.

    <div align=center>[​IMG]</div>

    5. Killzone - PS2 game that looks to be a "Halo-killer" and I believe it. Too bad Halo 2 will kick it in the shin and send Killzone and Guerilla running. Still looking promising, if I have enough money I'll check it out.

    <div align=center>[​IMG]</div>

    6. Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict - Yes, the first Unreal Championship sucked ass, and although you may think it's a port of UT2k4 for the PC, it's not. The engine has been strictly and primarily designed for the XBOX, and the gameplay promises melee attacks, 3rd person view, and attack combos, elements new to the Unreal series.

    Game: NHL 2005
    Publisher: EA Sports
    Genre: Sports - Hockey
    Release Date: September 15th

    This is my most highly anticipated game. I loved NHL 2004 and this game has even more features to mess around with. One thing I'm especially looking forward to is the "Free-4-All" mode. One net, half the ice, and up to four players competing in a battle royale to see which player can score the most goals in a certain amount of time. It should be hilarious. I hear the Dynasty Mode is getting even better.

    <div align=center>[​IMG]</div>
    Game: Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
    Publisher: RockStar Games
    Genre: Action Adventure
    Release Date: October 19th

    I absolutely can't wait for the next installation of Grand Theft Auto. This version has so many new features and should be great. It's far more interactive and storyline seems better than Vice City.

    SmackDown Vs RAW IGN Page

    Yeah. IGN has everything you need to know about it. Also, I found a screen-shot awhile back. It was a shot of the main menu. 'Online' was a greyed out option, so it looks like it will be in. :D

    I wanna play you online if it is :p

    Looks like I'll be getting an online adapter thing with my PS2.

    I want to get a hard drive for it too.

    It = the sh*t. :D
    edit: I think it sucks that it doesn't work with PS1 games, but I can play those on the PC so it's no big deal.
