It's coming sooner than later. Of coarse this is speculation. I have been considering buying a Vita for the past month, I even picked up a 32 gig memory card for $70 on amazon 2 weeks ago. Last night I finally snaped and dissembarked to my local Wally World to purchase my very own, only to discover that they were sold out. So I tried the next closest Walmart (It was late,GS was closed) Sold out there as well. I'm not sure if poor sales have forced retailers to order less, or they are intentionally selling out of stock in anticipation of a new model/formfactor/ pricedrop. With all the success of the drop in Japan, I see this all happening between now and E3. You're thoughts?

I wanna get one, but I'm not sure which one should get my money. Which games has less backtracking. If I die during a mission, how much of the mission will I have to redo? Which one has better performance? Which one do you think is more fun?

Yeah there sure is a lot of games I want to buy this holiday season. I'll likely be playing catch-up for awhile.

Is Vanquish really coming out Oct. 19th? I thought it wasn't coming out until early 2011. That's a definite purchase for me.Archangel3371

Apparently Vanquish has been complete for two weeks now. A demo should be hitting Live and PSN next week. Keep an eye out for it. Looks great, but I'm gonna try it out first. I'm having a tough time between Vanquish, Castlevania, and Enslaved. They are all 3rd person action adventures, but I can only get one in that time frame.

I've been a member for a while, but never check out the forums. I'm gonna be better about it in the future!

H2O or a Lager. Newcastle or Fat Tire.

There are also many Wii games coming out-- Donkey Kong Country Returns, Conduit 2, Goldeneye 007, and Epic Mickey. Also, on PS3 and 360, there's James Bond Blood Stone and LA Noire.

I'm looking forward to MoH, CoD: BO, Donkey Kong Country Returns, Conduit 2, Goldeneye, Blood Stone, Halo: Reach, and LA Noire. I'll be getting all of them. Time to set aside money, indeed.

That's about $500 in software! How many hours a week do you play on average?

I am getting all of those plus Metroid: Other M, Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, DJ Hero 2, Kirby's Epic Yarn, Rock Band 3, Guitar Hero: Warrior's of Rock, Epic Mickey, God of War: Ghost of Sparta, James Bond 007: Blood Stone, The Sly Collection and Sonic Colors.

That's insane! Soo many games! How much could you possibly play each one if you buy28 games in two months?

The holiday season is just around the corner. Last year many publishers pushed major releases into Q1 2010 so they would have less competition. After reading a few news stories I was under the impression we were in for a similar situation this year, with Crysis 2 and serveral others arriving Q1 2011. Here is a list of some notable titles coming out this holiday season.

Halo Reach 9/14

Dead Rising 2 9/28

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 10/5

Enslaved: Journey to the West 10/5

Medal of Honor 10/12

Vanquish 10/19

Fallout: New Vegas 10/19

Star Wars: The Forcwe Unleashed 2 10/26

Fable 3 10/26

Gran Turismo 5 11/2

COD: Black Ops 11/9

Little Big Planet 2 11/16

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood 11/16

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 11/16

First off, let me be the first to say I ant all of these games. But, there is no way I can afford them all. We all have some tough decisions ahead. What games are you most interested in? What games do you think will be completely overlooked?
