I'm surprised Alan Wake and S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Clear Sky are not on that list...those might be the 2 games I am most looking forward to in 2008 (actually Fallout 3 is my most anticipated game

)

The game I am most looking forward to is also Fallout 3. The others are so far behind there is no second place.

I am also growing a lot fonder of RPGs compared to FPS or TPS titles. Maybe I am not as much of a gamer as I used to be.

Mrs. TQ is a huge fan of the Fallout series. F3 is tops on her fall list. I'm looking forward to it as well, but I never played any of the other games in the series.
Stalker: Clear Sky would have to be The One Most Awaited for me but Far Cry 2 looks really good...uh..."too".
I'm also looking forward to my first console game:Star Wars: The Force Unleashed... I just hope I have enough thumbs for the controller.

Well yeah. That says it all for that list, really. It was bad enough wasting time on that page on their website the other night, let alone finding a link to it here.

that list did have a few games I had forgotton about or never heard of and now I will definitely have my eye on them--example: Race Driver: Grid (I've always enjoyed racing games and there have been so few quality ones released the last few years) and also 'Alone in the Dark' might be something worth getting

I said this in another thread:

Alan Wake will be released in a special edition box along with Duke Nukem Forever.

We'll all have long gray beards by then. lol.

I just read an article today which stated that Alan Wake has been delayed to 2009
