After a slightly disappointing year for 2008 PC games mostly due to bugs/drm etc what are you looking forward to for 2009?

At the moment I'm only looking at "This is Vegas" (GTA clone maybe) but not much else so what about everyone else?
 
Ummm....
Starcraft 2 Wings Of Liberty + the other 2 versions
Diablo 3
Star Trek Online
Star Wars The Old Republic (maybe 2010)
Dawn Of War 2
The Sims 3
Tom Clancy's Hawx
Metro 2033
Deus Ex 3
Operation Flashpoint 2
Empire Total War
Dragon Age: Origins
Fear 2 Project Origin
Bioshock 2
Half Life Episode 3
Beyond Good And Evil 2
Splinter Cell Conviction
BorderLands
Alan Wake
Mafia 2
Just Cause 2
Aion: Tower Of Eternity
Rage
Wolfenstein 3
 
Saints Row 2.
Empire Total War.
Mafia 2.
Bioshock 2.
Burnout Paradise.

Those are all I'm looking forward to atm.
 
Saints Row 2
Alien Colonial Marines
MD11 add-on for FSX (when it appears as a boxed version).
FS Passengers for FSX (if the developer manages to finish it).
Train Sim 2 (:D:D:D:D)

Not done a whole lot of forward planning yet as I'm likely to still be playing most of the stuff I bought in the latter half of 2008.

What I would like to see in 2009 is the resurgence of some more traditional titles...
We are well overdue a new flight sim with dynamic campaign in the style of Falcon 4 or EF2000. Would love to see a new space game that isn't X related or some one hit wonder. A new Star Wars space sim would be nice...
Oh and a decent transport strategy sim, after the rather mundane Sid Meiers Railroads the market is gagging for something in that genre.
 
Personally ?

Not looking forward to much really, Sims 3 looks interesting, played the original and the sims 2 to death !! (have all the expansion packs :()

The Blizzard stuff looks good, Diablo 3 looks good, as does Mafia 2, Episode 3...

Empire total war looks good, but i still much prefer the medieval style.

Will be interesting to see if the games are as good as they promise to be, Bioshock 2, Mafia 2, Diablo 3, Empire total war... a lot of these games seem to be sequels so it will be interesting to see how good they are compared to their older counterparts.
