Well it&#8217;s right about now actually.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at games that just came out recently or are about to come out in the close future shall we?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Spore<\/li>\n<li>Far Cry 2<\/li>\n<li>Crysis Warhead<\/li>\n<li>Left 4 Dead<\/li>\n<li>CnC Red Alert 3<\/li>\n<li>Fallout 3<\/li>\n<li>Dead Space<\/li>\n<li>World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King<\/li>\n<li>Need for Speed: Undercover<\/li>\n<li>Grand Theft Auto 4<\/li>\n<li>Mirror&#8217;s Edge<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And these are just the PC-related titles. If I were to add console related games&#8230; Woa. But I won&#8217;t because I don&#8217;t own a console so I don&#8217;t keep up to date with console games.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not really interested in all of the games. I definitely won&#8217;t be getting all of it, I&#8217;m not made out of money after all. But even the few that I&#8217;m interested in would probably kill me. Let&#8217;s list them out in order shall we?<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Fallout 3 (I&#8217;ve waited for this ever since Fallout 2!)<\/li>\n<li>Grand Theft Auto 4 (I&#8217;ve hoped for this ever since I heard they were making it)<\/li>\n<li>Left 4 Dead (Zombies. You can never go wrong with zombies)<\/li>\n<li>Mirror&#8217;s Edge (Ever wanted to be a free runner from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0267129\/\"><em>Yamakasi<\/em> <\/a>or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0345235\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Les Fils du Vent<\/em><\/a>?)<\/li>\n<li>Need for Speed Undercover (Maggie Q! Hubba hubba hubba&#8230;)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Man&#8230; These games are games I <strong>REALLY<\/strong> want. I&#8217;m a big fan of the Fallout and GTA series so it&#8217;s only natural that I&#8217;m so eager for them to be released. Oh, correction, Fallout 3 was released yesterday. I&#8217;ve yet to save up enough money to get myself a copy of Fallout 3.<\/p>\n<p>Come to think of it, I can probably live without shooting zombies, leaping over people&#8217;s heads or driving off ramps. Well, whatever it is I&#8217;m going to get myself a copy of both FO3 and GTA4 for sure.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve already gotten my mittens on a copy of Far Cry 2 and it&#8217;s a very good game. Look forward to my upcoming Far Cry 2 review!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s a trend with games just as there is a trend with movies.
