Looking Forward to 2011: Video Games
2010 is behind us and 2011 is here with a whole year of new games to look forward too. 2010 had some great games, but 2011 appears to have some amazing games being released over the next 12 months. Here are some of the games I am looking forward too.
Dead Space 2 is going to be awesome, wait, it IS awesome! I thought Dead Space was one of the best games of this generation, and Dead Space 2 looks to be great.
Screw all the haters out there, I love Killzone and Killzone 2, and Killzone 3 looks incredible! This is one of those games that makes me fire up the Playstation 3, and not put the controller down until I am done.
I am so excited about L.A. Noire! I am a huge fan of the time period of the L.A. Quartet, and L.A. Noire appears to let you play some lost James Ellroy novel. After years in development will it deliver? I sure hope so!
Brink has impressed me since the first time I saw it at PAX Prime back in 2009. Conceptually the online mechanic appears to be something that will change things moving forward. I’m excited to see how it turns out.
What more can you say about Uncharted? It will be awesome. Nuff said.
XCOM is back, but it isn’t your father’s X-COM. With a great 50′s style and mechanics that appear to be more then just shooting stuff, I’m excited how this will turn out.
I have no idea what you do in Journey, but I am hypnotized by it. Visually simple yet beautiful, I am curious what exactly you do.
Day the world ends? Perhaps. Diablo 3 is coming and life might end as we know it. Well at least the social life of millions of gamers.
WOOHOO! One of the best games of last generation is back with a nice new coat of paint. Beyond Good & Evil HD will give many gamers a chance to check out this amazing game.
I am really excited about Spec Ops: The Line for a couple reasons. With a good number of friends working on the title, I am excited to see what they have built and the other the curiosity of how the game I could have worked on turned out.
From the first time I saw Deus Ex: Human Revolution at GDC in 2010, I knew it was going to be awesome. The graphics are amazing, the art direction is spot on, the mechanics that meld classic Deus Ex with todays action first person shooters.
Have you been playing the Killzone 3 Open Beta? It’s my first experience w/ a KZ game and I am absolutely loving it. My PSN ID is paulwalker if you wanna party up!
