Games you're looking forward to In the meantime, between Yahtzee's games

Personally, I am quivering with Bioshock anticipation. I was a huge fan of System Shock 2, though, so it comes as no great surprise. If they ever finish it, the Quest for Glory 2 remake at AGDI looks like it could be fairly amazing. Plus, the new expansion for Neverwinter Nights 2 is something on the horizon (yes, I know, I'm a nerd).
Let's get this little tidbit out of the way in the first post so we don't have to revisit it. I'm noticing a trend in threads nowadays to devolve into name calling and who-daddy-Yahtzee-loves-more contests. Take your flamebait elsewhere and only post if you're looking forward to something.
So...go ahead.

(Enough parentheses for you?!)
But I'll go look at those anyway, maybe they'll grab me by the throat and refuse to let go.

Haha, quality chat!
Sadly, looks like the Wii system is the main reason it's banned...

If I can make Link run around swinging his sword for no reason, shoot goblins in the face and crotch with explosive arrows, ram a sword through the chest of a guy twice my height and STILL not go running around in green tights eating fairies and disintergrating at random trying to save the land of Hyrule, I'm sure as fuck not going to mistake my Wiimote for an actual axe and try to ram it up somebody's ass, you fucking shitwizards
God all of this ban bullshit pisses me off. You'd think they'd realize that taking away FAKE violence encourages REAL violence by now, wouldn't you?

I agree with you on that. wors comes to worse a lil kid runs up and tries to stab you with a wii remote would make everyone laugh.... which reminds why did they ban the first one on computer?

That's not particularly true. But then, a new input device is hardly the tool of the devil. In the old days, psychopaths would start off with the arrow keys and ctrl button. Or more healthy pursuits...The Columbine kids went bowling before letting off 900+ rounds.

This is a myth.

Someone should ask those people: "Does porn desensitize you to sex?"
They always fail to answer the question of whether the games cause violence, or whether it's violent people that enjoy them.

- Castlevania: Rondo of Blood and the Final Fantasy Tactics remakes coming for PSP. (Castlevania was delayed until December! Gods!)
- Phoenix Wright 3.
Console:
Nothing has me jumping except for Smash Bros. and Galaxies. Metal Gear for the PS3 is some of the best gameplay I've seen in a long, long time. Assassin's Creed makes me tingle.
Half-Life: Orange Box, anyone?
