    good question. I'm bad at keeping track of new games these days... the new Diablo looks promising. I didn't know Mount and Blade was coming out with a sequel/expansion. Multiplayer?? awesome, if they manage to pull it off with good netcode. Will probably be hell to balance too... but the mounted combat could be so epic in 32 man skirmishes.

    Batman: Arkham Asylum.


    No. i can't believe I'm excited about a batman game, either. They're usually terrible.


    But this has all the animated series proper voice actors! including Mark Hamill as the Joker!


    Should be awesome.

    Also Bioshock 2. I recently found out that the lead designer on Bioshock 2 (or creative director or whatever his official title is) is the guy who created the Shalebridge Cradle level of Thief 3, which is one of the most disturbing game levels in the history of gaming. So that has made me optimistic.

    Added Youtube trailer links for those that I thought people might not know or just knew of trailers for.
    There's probably a bunch more but I can't think of them off the top of my head and keep in mind I'm in the UK; some of these are already out abroad :p

    I'm looking forward to a few games like Batman Asylum but I wouldn't say it's on my 'wish list'. While I love that they got the original animated series voice actors (including Luke Skywalker as the Joker :p ) I'm not quite sure of the character models or the gameplay (though it sounds ok). I'll probably pick it up :3

    I'd love to see <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oabIXoWf1c&fmt=18" target="_blank">Fragile</a> (Wii) come out over here but I'm not hopeful :/

    Really excited? NS2 and nothing else, although with some trepidation even then because it won't be NS1.

    Kind of interested? All of the above.
    also Overlord 2

    I'm a PC guy, so... yeah.

    I'm praying Bioshock2 doesn't become a stupid re-hash. But, I'm still excited.
    NS2 (duh)
    StarCraft2 looks sweet, but here's hoping they haven't messed it up.
    Diablo 3 because smashing things is fun.

    There's also several indy and mods out there I'm tracking, but I don't know when they'll finally make it out the gates with decent content.

    Except it has vehicles and planes and destructable environments and so on. It has pretty much nothing to do with TF2 except classes, which Battlefield 1942 through 2142 had, and fighting, which is common to many games.

    The original art style was similar, but they seem to have refined it a bit.

    1. NS2
    .
    . (large gap)
    .
    2. SC2
    3. Diablo III

    I'm keeping my eye on Dwarf Fortress to see where it goes, same with (recently) Love, but I wouldn't say highly anticipated.

    It's okay.

    Games I'm waiting for:
    Natural Selection 2 - I cherish the memories from when NS was played a lot, can't wait to see what the few but awesome devs come up with now!
    Diablo III - because mugging dungeons and picking talent trees is fun
    Starcraft II - SC(:BW) is pretty much perfect if you're into RTS games and Sci-Fi
    Postal 3 - Postal 2 was just stupidly funny, cats on shotguns anyone?
    Bioshock 2 - gameplay was okay but the story and ambiance was superb
    Duke Nukem Forever - mighty foot to the head!

    Now that lovely lovely Outrun Online Arcade is out on the Xbox, I'm not really looking forward to anything else. I've only just picked up a 360 so I'm going through older stuff like Bioshock, Fallout 3, Crackdown etc.

    If Phantasy Star Zero is a smash then I might pick up a DS, as I've been meaning to give Crono Trigger and the translated Mother 3 a whirl.
