games you look forward to in 2008 and beyond

Yeah, Makoto will be pretty cool.

Also, near as I can tell regular Nu is going to be a DLC character as a sort of Unlimited Lambda. Mu, the new Nu, is totally new. She has an enormous sword to fight with and no one knows what she can do.

[MortifiedocAlot]

considering the other characters in the game, i think she fits in fine.  funny the people on /v/ screaming OMG FURRAYYY, ignoring the fact that tao is in the game. 

Funny how Felicia escapes all these claims of furrydom, despite having more then just cat ears and a tail.

but yeah, I hear Makoto plays like Slayer, which sounds awesome.

Holy fucking shit, Sin and Punishment 2 is developed by Treasure. I want that bad.

[Eggman]

Why would you have thought it wasn't made by Treasure? The first one was made by them too.

Either way, buy it because it's a really good game and it's actually pretty long considering the genre. And it has online leaderboards so going for score is fun.

[MortifiedocAlot]

Sounds great, also I had no clue treasure was still around.

Also this sounds fairly interesting.

torchlight fucking 2?

count me interested...as long as it's months away from diablo 3.  (assuming diablo 3 comes out before i die of old age)

[Spectere]

torchlight fucking 2?

YES.  AND THEY ACTUALLY HAVE CO-OP MULTIPLAYER.

I've been in a Torchlight mood lately and have been playing the shit out of it.  The lack of multiplayer sort of makes me sad (though I can understand the reasons why they wouldn't have it -- small company, budget title, etc -- but it still makes me sad).  I heard that some enterprising third-parties did release a multiplayer mod for Torchlight, but I have yet to check it out.

[Bobbias]

Lol, they "ran out of excuses not to do it". Nice.

[MortifiedocAlot]

I might check that out then, seems like a more then decent enough game for the price.

Also metroid other M is coming soon. I'm such a whore for Metroid now.

Yeah this is p much how I feel about it. Hopefully this comes out sometime before the next decade, which is when I assume d3 is going to arrive.

[MortifiedocAlot]

That new Spess Muhreen game looks interesting.

excuse me, any new info of diablo 3 gets me excited, so im going to leave and be excited.

Not 100% sure how I feel now. HOPEFULLY it will be good, I've been waiting for a decent third person shooter/hack n slash hybrid to come out.

[MortifiedocAlot]

Alright, last thing I saw about that game definitely had me interested (it looks sort of like a dynasty warriors game, but with more shootan) so hopefully it doesn't suck ass.

On another note, there's like 5 Wii games I want. I was wondering if Little Kings story was worth 30 and if mad world was worth 20? Also is No More Heros 2, Sin and Punishment 2, and UR MR GAY 2 worh the money?

I want to buy at least one of these along with Other M when it comes out, but I should probably wait a bit for other m.

[Eggman]

All of those games were worth full price, other than Mad World. Little King's Story was the best game of the year when it came out. Seriously. There are so many levels on which that game operates storywise it's incredible. It's childish, serious, funny, and contemplative all at the same time. It's also becoming very rare so yeah I'd get it at $30.

All three of the last games were unbelievably good. S&P2 has online leaderboards and will keep you nice and busy. Galaxy 2 is the best 3D platformer. Seriously.
