    Star Wars: Empire at War

    Cool. It's a strategy game like Total War. Unfortunately, it's missing something that Total War games have; lots of bodies lying on the battlefield. In addition to that, I'd like to see some distinctive characters with different abilities like in KOEI's Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Star Wars has some, like Darth Vader, but I think the generals look the same. I hope there are some good movies or interaction with the characters in close up too.

    I'd like to have some first person playing added to the game, but the strategy part is good enough.

    Hmm... haven't really thought - my current laptop's 3 years old, so nothing new works anymore - Rome just about limps by.

    But I hear rumours I might be getting a new beast to work with - so might have to give some recent releases a whirl... Anything with pixel shader requirements for example.

    I dunno - if a new Flashpoint comes out... kekvitirae - know anything about that?

    Plus - want to give B&W2, Thief III, Rome on max settings... etc. etc. a good goingover.
    Don't have any aspirations - they're doomed to fail.

    Rumours...

    Anything that will still play on my system.

    That said, there isn't really a game I'm specifically looking forward too anyway.

    Looking forward to Bully and seeing what all the fuss is about as everybody is getting on its case. If you don't like it due to its content, don't buy it.

    Oh yes I forgot about Star Wars. I guess I'll see what public reaction is and how much money I have when its released :)

    Assuming it even makes it out in 2006, the big one for me is the new Battle of Britain flightsim from Oleg Maddox, the guy who created the Il2 series of flight sims.

    Also, there's going to be another exapnsion pack for the present Il2 series released in 2006, and it's going to have Mosquitos in it! Yeah baby!

    Well, Armed Assault for starters, and OFP2 (not the Codemasters version) if BI manages to get it ready for -06.

    In no particular order:
    • Mass Effect
    • Dragon Age (2006 ...? Please!)
    • The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
    • Warhammer: Mark of Chaos
    • Supreme Commander (again: 2006?)
    • Company of Heroes
    • Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends
    That's about it, methinks...
