You forgot:
GTA IV - November 21 2008

neoboy · 5 Sep 2008 at 22:32

I rarely buy games on release dates. The only ones I would consider buying straight away is GTA, Left 4 Dead and HL EP3.

CliffyBiro · 5 Sep 2008 at 22:35

Most definately:

Killzone 2
Little Big Planet
Gran Turismo 5
Resistance 2

That's over £1500 worth of games! :eek:

Margaret · 5 Sep 2008 at 22:41

Buy? Not many, only the real anticipated titles and decent multiplayer games I buy.

So for me this year on PC, just Left 4 Dead and Fallout 3.

episode 3 and gta4 is all i'm looking forward to.

Hamoodii · 5 Sep 2008 at 23:02

Fallout 3 and GTA will probably be the only titles I'll be buying on release, if I had more money the list will probably be a bit longer

If they average £33 each, the opening posts list of games (which I assume the £1500 was referring too) adds up to £1300.

Well I assumed he was talking about Tute's list considering thats who he quoted! Plus I can't remember the last time I bought a new PC game for over £25.

Wasabi · 5 Sep 2008 at 23:17

I meant the topic starter's list - my post is corrected.

BlackDragon · 5 Sep 2008 at 23:23

This is my list:

Left 4 Dead - November 4th 2008

Alan Wake - September 30th 2008
Red Alert 3 - October 28th 2008
Farcry 2 - November 30th 2008

Not me, the only games recently I've bought on/around release were Bioshock, Orange Box, Kane's Wrath and GRID.
I reckon a good 30% of the games I buy are a year old or greater. Obviously if I had more free time then I'd probably be playing more games and hence get them sooner.
