Just got done doing my pre-orders for the fall. Space Marine 2 and DQ3HD2D. I also pre-ordered Kingdome Come 2, all on Steam.

Between Gamepass and Plus, I'm waiting on more. I have 4 eyes on Metaphor and there may be an odd indie but I'm pretty secure in those for now. I'll be playing BO6 via Gamepass so that one doesn't count.

- Purchased Black Myth Wukong and pre-ordered Astro Bot for PlayStation 5 a few days ago.
- Purchased Visions of Mana and pre-ordered Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 for Xbox Series X a few days ago.
- Already own the Premium Edition for Starfield so the Shattered Space expansion will be automatic.
- Will be playing Star Wars Outlaws in November followed by Assassin's Creed Shadows via Ubisoft+.
- Will be playing Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (campaign only), Stalker 2 and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle via Game Pass Ultimate.
- One single game purchase remains for the rest of 2024 which will be Dragon Age: The Veilguard which I will pre-order a week before it releases.

Astro bot is most likely the only one. But then again, my birthday is the 22nd of September, so I'll just wish list it as a gift.
 
Not really buying much but I have 13 games in my Gamefly queue between today and the end of the year. Let's see if I get a chance to play all of them.

I am planning to buy the new Astro Bot game next month. My kid loves it... and so do I. But he probably loves it more than me.

This is the kind of game you should play if you just want to sit back, relax, and have simple fun.

Also, maybe Alan Wake 2 in October if the physical disk (PS5) becomes available in my country.

The only one I'm sure of is YSX.
I might pick up Astrobot depending on the reception, and Space Marine 2 if some friends get it so we can play it in Coop.

I'm mostly planning on playing through my backlog though
 
M&L:Brothership
Dq 3 Remake
Plucky Squire

Maybe Astro but waiting for reviews for control critiques.

Metaphor would be a must if it was anyone but Atlus, ie I'm not buying their first draft just to loose out on the final edition in the near future.

Whatever interesting jrpgs come out as well as potential grabs.
 
After I'm done with Black Myth Wukong I'll get:

Astrobot
Silent Hill 2
Metaphor Re Fantazio
Lego Horizon
Broken Sword Remake
Amerzone

I also think that Neva and The Plucky Squire will be great titles so I'm looking forward to those as well. The latter is a day one Plus release as well.

Finally it's total wait and see for AC Shadows and the new Dragon's Age, but honestly I'm not optimistic.

Not much. I'm going to buy Astro Bot.

But I'm mainly playing older games on Steam. I'm playing Deus Ex Human Revolution right now, after that I plan on playing Pillars of Eternity, Wasteland 3 and Homeworld Remastered.

I'm also still playing Baldurs Gate 3 constantly....with no end in sight.
 
Astro Bot, Silent Hill 2 , and yeah this is LTTP - the FF Pixel remasters. (reprint)

My backlog between ps5 and PC is massive, so likely nothing. The only real exception is Astro Bot out of pure principle.
 
I reordered FF16 for PC because it cost me 0 on EPIC Store.

Note: I never reorder normally.

Other that that I have 0 interest In upcoming releases.

How is Visions? I didn't get it because I don't know much. A fan of everything up until Legend of Mana.
 
Only Day One for me is:

20240618191522%21Mario%26LuigiBrothershipUSboxart.jpg


Everything else is wait and see or a quick Game Pass sub. I never considered Game Pass before, but apparently Space Marine 2, Plucky Squire, Metaphor, and Stalker 2 are all on it so it might be worth it just to try them out before buying.
 
Buy? I would if it wasn't all coming to gamepass….. stalker 2… Indy…. According to my Xbox account I w already own Blops 6😂😂😂😂😂😂😂


I'm gonna be buying those capcom fighting game collections on PC but quitely hoping they come to Xbox where I'll buy them again



Aside from that…. It's all about that massive backlog! I must be the only person on here who hasn't played cyberpunk or elden ring, but owns them….. and now stalker 2 is coming….. fuuuuuuuuck 😫😫


I ain't got enough time for all this! But stalker 2….. I'm gonna clear my gaming schedule for!
 
With Avowed and MGS Delta slipping to 2025, it'll probably just be Astro Bot and Indiana Jones for the rest of the year for me. The year of the backlog rages on.
 
Not much on PS5 it seems (in regards to new games), although early 2025 seems packed. Looking forward to COD BO6, Indiana Jones, Stalker 2 on my Series X but I have gamepass so I will be playing them that way. Plus there are some PS5 games already out that I want but waiting for holiday sales. Which is fine, saving money for the new games on PS5 I want next year.

I played the demo on Steamdeck. I didn't notice any frame drops but I tend to not pay attention to those things. You might notice a difference. As for the game itself, extremely beautiful but the game reminds me of Xenoblade when it comes to exploration. The combat is fun and fast. Overall the demo made a good impression on me. I hardly buy anything day one nowadays and that include JRPGs and Japanese games too
 
Space marines Warhammer 40k
Astro Bot
Silent Hill

Waiting on Black friday sales so I can get a couple of 3rd party games I skipped earlier this year.

Silent hill 2.

Lots of psvr2 games as i dont sweat my balls of in the heat
 
Black Ops 6.
I'm excited for this. I'm excited for Zombies.
October 25th, will be a nice Halloween treat. I hope Treyarch has some seasonal fun for the community. Late nights with this one.


My brother told me about this a bit ago. I was neither interested or disinterested.
I was in a thread about it earlier today where I saw video developer diary. I liked what I heard, so I want to give it a shot. I have played a couple of extraction shooters. EFT, CoDs version. EFT is fun and intense. Hopefully this can create that tension.

The more I see of this game the more it interests me, well enough to take a look at it. I don't have a grindy game that I can jump in and out of atm. This may be it.

And of course Wukong. When I heard it was more like GoW I became more interested in it. With all the beautiful gifs and shots circulating. The graphics look how I want artsytle and tech to meet. Like a Capcom.

Space marine 2, MGS3 Delta and I'm holding out hope for prime 2 and 3 release.

Gotta keep it lean this holiday in case I go broke buying a ps5 pro
 
Going for Astrobot, Metaphor and DQ3. I will play Stalker 2 and Kingdom Come 2, but I suspect those will need some patching.
 
Astro Bot
Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
Mario and Luigi: Brotherhood
The Plucky Squire
Marvel Fighting Game Collection

Also some horror games for Halloween month. Silent Hill 2 being at the top of the list at moment.

Keeping an eye on other stuff, including Metaphor and Dragon Quest 3, but might wait for sales.

Edit: Forgot, I just bought Visions of Mana too.
