We've got:

Zelda
FFXII (probably)
Black


Besides, your yearly multiplatform games, what's out there? The first half of the year is stacked for PS2 and Xbox (with some sure to be delayed to 2nd half), but we have so little visibility of 2nd half 2005. I can understand for the Xbox, but what about the PS2? Do we have to wait until E3?

 

[Louis]

Isn't God of War being released in 2nd half ?

 

[Mrbob]

Kingdom Hearts 2.

I personally didn't think the first one was that great but sales were monstrous for the title. In fact, I expect it to be a bigger game, sales wise, than FFXII in NA. FFXII may not even make it in 2005 NA because of Kingdom Hearts 2.

God of War comes out in March.

 

[Doom_Bringer]

Final Fantasy XII is probably early 2006.

I don't know anything about Black, its all hype right now and the game could end up being sucky...

Release date is March 22nd.

 

[The End]

DQVIII will be big.

 

[Elios83]

FFXII
Kingdom Hearts 2
Wanda and The Colossus


Also other titles as Okami,Genji,Castelvania Curse of Darkness could be noteworthy.

 

[Mrbob]

Oh yeah DQ8. It'll be intersting to see how it sells. This could be the breakout DQ game regarding sales in NA. I'm guessing it'll come out over the summer?

How is Square Enix going to plan their releases in NA this year?

Dragon Quest 8 this summer

Radiata Stories in August/September

Kingdom Hearts 2 October/November

FF12 2006?

 

[Mama Smurf]

There are GC games like Kirby, Pokemon, Mario Baseball, that other baseball game, Advance Wars, Fire Emblem, DDR with Mario, Odama, Mario 128 etc. any of which could hit 2nd half, we just don't know which ones will though.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

right, but we're talking about "big"

really, only Zelda will be "big" on the Cube, if anything.

 

[element]

God of War looks hot
I don't know about Black :\ Word has it is being moved to next-gen, but I could be mistaken.

Please, Zelda's HUGE. A lot of those other games are big, though I suppose you can take out Odama and the baseball games.

The other games though are certainly as big as fricken God of War and Black. Perhaps Black will be huge eventually, but right now there's not much to it for us to say either way.

 

[Mrbob]

Is F.E.A.R. a second half release? I thought it was pegged for May.

 

[Speevy]

Don't forget Nintendo "Swing for the Fences" All Star Diamond Pennant League Baseball.

God of War is going to be huuuuuuge

But yeah, I'm just ripping on Nintendo for their inability to influence Pop Culture.

 

[jarrod]

You forgot Wario Ware: Twisted!

2nd half, not 1st half. GBA actually has a pretty great 1st half so far.

 

[_Angelus_]

Half the games on this list won't sell anywhere near *BIG*,but its what I have lined up for purchase.

SEGA RALLY 2005
FAR CRY INSTINCTS
DOOM3
STARFOX
SEGA CLASSICS VOLUME 1
ESPN BASEBALL/MVP BASEBALL
Possibly the upcoming Zelda GameCube game.
Death by Degree
Dark Watch
GT4

 

[The End]

You can skip DOOM3

really.
