Big Rigs 2????? When did that happened??? Why?? I find it funny that i've haven't heard of this game in the many Wii bashing threads on System Wars.
Other than that, Mario Galaxy is a must, so is Dragon Ball Z: BT3 (The best fighting game this year IMO) Trauma Center New Blood () and maybe Mario & Sonic at the Olympics
10 of these games is a must for me, 16 of them I want so it's going to be a really though month, since I will have to comprimise and give up on a lot of great games until later, all while several new games planned for December is coming, not to mention all the goodness still coming out late October.
I never thought so many people liked Dragon Ball Z games, I have personally never played one, no have I any clue what the franchise is about. I considered leaving it out of this thread, but I see now it was a good idea that I didn't.
I obviously included Big Rigs 2 for some comedy to the thread, I'll have to see if I can't test it though, just so I can say I've actually played something so bad. It really amazes me that some developers actually work on this game, I mean... It doesn't spring out of the ground does it? Then there is another company who actually publish the thing... Simply amazing.

They are sooooo incredibly addictive, well only the main fighting games the rest just plain sucks

Yes, they are.
They aren't incredibly balanced, but they're fun and addictive.
Officially retired System Wars veteran. It was a fun three years.
Hmm...now that Portal and Episode 2 were my most antipaed for this year, so there's not too much left at this point. Crysis is still a must-have for me though, and I will probably pick up R&C and Uncharted. Guess my 360's going back into stasis .
I have to make a desicion on what games to get when they release and what games to get later on...
Let see here.
Shoot myslef in the foot to get games are: Mass Effect Call of Duty 4 Crysis Assassins Creed
Get heavy debt I can never repay games: Super Mario Galaxy Kane & Lynch: Dead Men Army of Two Soldier of Fortune: Pay Back
Make sure not to miss and get as soon I have some pocket money: Haze Uncharted: Drake's Fortune Empire Earth III Need for Speed ProStreet SOCOM: Confrontation Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance
Then there is a bunch of other games I want, but I don't really mind waiting for.
Ouch. This list is so good that it hurts. I can feel my wallet getting lighter and lighter just reading through this list. I'm thinking that I will eventually have to get the Wii and the Playstation 3 because they all have so many different games I am interested in. Uncharted looks amazing! And I almost cried when I heard UT was only going to be on the Playstation 3. Thank god it will come out eventually!
