Looks like slim pickins between now and October for the PC

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Other than Deus Ex Human Revolution in late August, there really isn't anything "big" before October. In October, all hell breaks loose with a ton of big games. October 4th starts things off with Rage and NBA 2K12. On October 18th we get Batman Arkham City, and of course Battlefield 3 on October 25th.



Here are some potential PC games to check out prior to October

July

Call of Juarez: The Cartel - I'm sure it will be lame, but...

August

Age of Empires Online - not my kind of game but....
Deus Ex Human Revolution - this is the biggest game before October, easily
Tropico 4 - Dang, seems like Tropico 3 didn't come out that long ago. Hope they didn't rush this.
Driver: San Francisco - This game definitely needs a demo, lol.


September


Dead Island - This one looks kinda interesting. I'm almost more interested in this than Deus Ex as crazy as that sounds.
Warhammer 40K Space Marine - probably not in my wheelhouse



Those are pretty much the big games between now and October with Deus Ex and Dead Island leading the charge.

I've been playing Fear 3 for the last few hours. Runs soooooooo smooth. I'm liking it. You can tell it';s a console port but it's still decent. Much better than fear 2 IMO.

I'm looking forward to Deus ex and Dead island. I'm not a fan of any of the other series. Driver was good on the ps1 but after that it just doesn't do it for me.

BF3 can't come fast enough!!!

I have a big enough backlog on my PS3 ( even on my PC) to worry about this. In fact, I'm happy. If I upgrade my computer after summer I'll pick BF3, if not it will be later.

I'm just waiting for Skyrim in november tho

I might need to remove Deus Ex Human Revolution from my list. After listening to a recent Giant Bomb podcast, it seems that this game is in need of some serious repair, and not quite ready for prime time. Unfortunatley, it will likely be forced out without being fixed, so I'm definitely avoid Deus Ex, unless the reviews prove otherwise.

Dead Island is probably the next PC game that I'm actually interested in.

Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition is released on July 5th, but I suppose not many here are interested in the PC version of this game.

I still need to find a good PC arcade stick.
