Me personally, It's the Witcher 3. The First game was epic, the second game was considerably better than the first and probably the best game of the last 10 years so we can only assume the last game will be just as good or fantastic. It's just a shame that the series is ending it's such a good RPG series.

The graphics so far, look breathtaking and the trailer and gameplay video are fantastic. They've got me sold, I'm preordering it the second I'm able to.

I suppose The Sims 4 or Lords of the Fallen won't be bad either but this topic is the game you're looking the most forward to and well... Witcher 3 has them all beat. GTA V is making a PC release next year but I'm not all for the GTA series it just never caught my attention after playing the second game as a teenager. So what game are you looking the most forward to?
 
Never heard of either game :(. I must be out of the times on games. They both look like they'll be worth picking up next year though. Watch Dogs actually looks fun and the graphics look awesome. The Elder Scrolls Online might not be as horrible as I originally thought either. I was looking up updated info about a week ago and it's going to be the first game where we can visit all of the regions.

Camping out in Choroll (Best City out of all the games) and seeing Kvatch for the first time in 3D without being burned to the ground would be awesome. If they add challenging content and a good PVP system to the game I might make it my primary MMO over WoW.

It also would be cool to see many of the continents that we've never seen before in other games and have only seen in books.


I'll be picking up WoD as well although if blizzard mucks up that expansion I probably will never be reactivating my WoW sub again. I've been excited for challenging gameplay nearly every expansion and the game get's more hello kitty every single new patch.
 
None... Not much of a gamer. Got my Grid 2, got my BF4, so I am set.

There is another thread that has been open a couple months with a lot of the same games posted in them (a lot for 2014 games as well). You can check there while this one fills up with responses. ;)

Oh I wasn't aware I was making a duplicate thread, sorry. Oh, are you referring to the Top Video Game's topic? I didn't consider them to be the same.

How can you be a news editor, Bencher, have so much knowledge, and not play video games? It seems like a waste of talent! (Just pulling your leg).

BF4 was fun for a while though, It's starting to get boring now. It's kind of like Skyrim I was so anxious for it to come out and when it finally did I played it nonstop for 3 weeks, was one of the first people to max their toons out and complete the main quest, and then got bored and hardly ever touched it again. Oblivion though, that's another story. K back on topic.

2 votes TitanFall, 1 vote Watch Dogs, 1 vote Witcher 3.

Skyrim can still be fun, just download 80+ mods:D, its a whole new game
 
Hmm, just thought of another couple, but are only for consoles: Super Smash Brothers WiiU and Mario Kart 8 (wife pre-ordered them for me for Xmas). Me listing my to-own list for this year probably isn't very helpful though!
 
Personally I'm not looking forward to any new games. It seems companies just keep rebadging the same old junk instead of fixing current ones.
 
Star Citizen, Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls, Watch Dogs, The Witcher 3 and probably some I've spaced on... but those are my big ones. now for the real challenge... Finding time to play said games!

I agree, they even made an Online play Skyrim mod, the first of it's kind. But it just doesn't keep my attention the same as Oblivion does for some reason. It's been seven years now and the game still isn't boring (although hardly any people are making mods for it anymore they've all moved to Skyrim). It'll burn out one of these days but so far, it hasn't.

I still pickup Skyrim occasionally and I haven't actually bought any of the dlc/expansions. I bought the boxset that came out in September and replayed Daggerfall/Morrowind/Oblivion. Meh, when Skyrim Legendary Edition get's to be like $30 and all the other games burn themselves out i'll buy the dlc/expansions and get back to Skyrim on a large scale again.

I agree, there are a lot of games that are just the same game with updated graphics. They have the same feel, the seemingly same story, the same mechanics, ..etc. I think comparing Vanilla WoW through Cataclysm proved this. It was an epic game at first, BC was epic, and then Wotlk was just a "Meh Arthas, we've been there done that. Nax? Been there done that, and they made it for horribads and massively nerfed all the encounters. It's the same content and story as the last two expansions". The only thing that really sold Wotlk was the last half of the expansion. Ulduar, ICC and RS were epic raids with epic hard modes.

I think that's why I'm one of the few people that really enjoyed Cataclysm. It's was a completely different story, we had new skill trees and skills

We're getting the same thing in WoD but at least WoD we're getting updated character models and a seemingly new raiding difficulty. Garrisons will be cool as well. It could be a great expansion if blizzard doesn't muck it up.

We did however get games this year that weren't just rehashes of their predecessors. Total War Rome II had similar elements to the first game but it was all in all a totally different game. The Witcher 2 didn't seem to have really any of the same elements that the first game had either. It felt like a totally different game and a much, much better game. Skyrim, was totally different than Morrowind/Oblivion as well but the changes they made just didn't catch my attention personally.

Console games count although I won't be buying an Xbox One, WII U or PS4 anytime soon.


There's only two console only game titles that'd make me want a console and that's Harvest Moon or Zelda. Neither franchise has come out with a game capable of holding my attention for longer than 10 minutes since the N64 so I've never had a console since the n64.

I suppose Gods Of War isn't a bad franchise but I heard a rumor that the next game will be making a PC debut as well so getting a PS4 would be pointless.
 
Star Citizen and The Witcher 3 for me. If it's confirmed that a new Fallout game will be coming in 2014, I'll probably add that to the list. It seems to me that 2014 will have a lot of open world (or semi open world) titles, which is another thing I like to see in games.

I don't know why but, I never was super big on Fallout. I played the third game and New Vegas and... wasn't all that impressed with them. There are people who eat, breathe, and sleep Fallout but I just never got into it.

Star Citizen I didn't hear of either man I'm out of the loop on upcoming games :p.

Yeah, Open world games are awesome.

IF you haven't seen the Star Citizen thread you should check it out otherwise hit up the official Site.

I LOVE... wait, that wasn't enough...

I LOVE the Smash Bros Series.

I am pretty sad that it's not for the Wii though. I just plain won't buy a Wii U so I can play SSB. But oh well, my roommates and I can still get plenty of good use from SSBB on wii.
