What are you buying in September?

[Destructor]

One again a new month is upon us, and since there will be a lot of titles coming out (stupid developers/publishers), I figured that it's worth putting together yet another list showcasing everything that's due out. As before, all release dates may or may not be accurate, so blame the publisher, weather, or Acts of Gord if things aren't quite right.

Look for the '-' marks to show the different weeks. Not all consoles have something due out every week. Please post in the poll above as well, as the results are always quite interesting.

Finally, here's the list:

As for me... GOOD. There aren't that many games worth my time or money this month. August was a killer. But I'm still getting a few things (mostly RPGs it seems). Growlanser: Heritage of War Special Edition, Eternal Sonata, Halo 3, and maybe Medal of Honor: Airborne look to be up my alley. Definitely not quite as bad as last month.

this month is gonna be a dry month for me...well,a trickle....Halo 3..i will get it on day one,but cant say its even in my top ten of must buys

i also want eternal sonata,but i really have to go out tomorrow and sell my ass and get a job,that way most of the 360 titles would be getting bought

(the American army and cabela games never get released in Europe unfortunately)


and as a Wii owner,can i just say WTF to that september list.......ccccccccccccccrap

[Calvin]

PS3:
- Heavenly Sword

360:
- Eternal Sonata
- Halo 3

PC:
- Medal of Honor: Airborne
- World in Conflict (very maybe, most likely waiting for trade).
- Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts (DELAYED UNTIL NOVEMBER)

Yay! Really light month for me thank god.

[CeeKay]

360:
Halo 3


PC:
- Medal of Honor: Airborne, Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened, Star Wars: Empire at War Gold Pack, Stranglehold,

Those are the ones that I'm interested in, especially Sherlock Holmes- Sherlock vs Cthulhu?  how could that go wrong? 

[Destructor]

- Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts (DELAYED UNTIL NOVEMBER)

Apparently an Act of Gord happened with that one. See? I never said it would be all correct. 

And Ron, you had your Wii game in August. You can't expect to have one worth purchasing every month, right? 

[Ralph-Wiggum]

Probably Worms for the DS. Hopefully that will shut CC up until I get (another) 360.

[CeeKay]

And Ron, you had your Wii game in August. You can't expect to have one worth purchasing every month, right? 

come one,  we all know he's going to be secretly picking up a copy of My Sims 

[Captain Caveman]

Probably Worms for the DS. Hopefully that will shut CC up until I get (another) 360.

Just get a 360 by the time Rock Band comes out and I'll be happy. Besides, you'll need one for Mass Effect, which I KNOW you'll be getting day 1.

I may get worms for the DS, but really that's it. Thank goodness, because I've been buying games at a record clip lately...

[DonD]

NHL '08 for sure.

Probably Halo 3, but it's doubtful I'll go for it at release.

And on Wii, Mercury Meltdown.

[gellar]

NHL 08 is the only definite.  Heavenly Sword is quite likely.

gellar

[Zinfan]

The only possibility is Heavenly Sword.  No interest in anything else on the list which is good as I have BioShock to finish (pretty close I think) along with Stuntman Ignition and Metroid 3 to start.  I'm also slogging along slowly with Etrian Oddessy.

[disarm]

really not much here...Halo 3 is the only definite for the month.  there are several others that i'm interested in playing (probably as rentals), but they're not games i think will be worth my $60 investment (MoH, Eternal Sonata, Skate).

[CeeKay]

Probably Worms for the DS. Hopefully that will shut CC up until I get (another) 360.

Just get a 360 by the time Rock Band comes out and I'll be happy. Besides, you'll need one for Mass Effect, which I KNOW you'll be getting day 1.

plus I made room on my friends list especially for you.  don't be like WBS and hog up space with a gamertag that has no 360 

[EddieA]

Just Growlanser for me.  Unless there are some surprise announcements, it'll probably be the last PS2 game I buy on release day.  It's the end of an era 

[Laner]

Halo 3 and Medal of Honor: Airborne for sure. Lots of rentals and maybes on that list though.

[Fellow]

PS3:
- Heavenly Sword

360:
- Halo 3

...nice. A very manageable month!

[Jarrodhk]

Lots of maybe's, and Halo 3.

[JCC]

Nothing but MySims (Wii) for the wife.

[denoginizer]

 Halo 3 for sure. 

 Maybe Medal of Honor for the 360 depending on reviews.

[EngineNo9]

Halo 3 is probably the only release this month I'll buy.  I will likely rent Stranglehold at some time and I might pick up Stuntman: Ignition if it goes on sale. 

[Bullwinkle]

Gulp.

360:
- Medal of Honor: Airborne, Stranglehold
- SKATE??
- Blazing Angels 2: Secret Missions, Eternal Sonata
- Halo 3

Wii:
- Pool Party?
- Cosmic Family (for my 4 yr old), Fishing Master, Mercury Meltdown: Revolution, My Sims
- Dance Dance Revolution: Hottest Party Bundle?, Dewy's Adventure

DS:
- Worms: Open Warfare 2
- DK Jungle Climber, Drawn to Life?
- Sonic Rush Adventure

Some of these will probably drop off the list, but, wow, that's a lot.  Still, Halo 3 is the only top of the line must have game for me.  Worms: Open Warfare 2 has recently moved to the next highest slot.  DK Jungle Climber, Mercury Meltdown, Stranglehold and Eternal Sonata are right behind that.  I could be uber excited for Fishing Master, My Sims and Dewy's Adventure if they don't suck.

Thank goodness all the good games are coming this month and nothing is being released in the two months before Christmas. [/sarcasm]

[coopasonic]

Nothin last month and nothin this month and I don't even know what's coming in later months that will change that... too busy to think about console gaming. A bunch will likely hit my christmas list. Of course I still have an unopened copy of Gears of War from LAST christmas. 

[Azhag]

Eternal Sonata and maybe Halo 3. Probably grab Stranglehold someday, but maybe after a price drop.

[pingwrx]

Halo 3
Nhl 08

[leo8877]

Halo 3 for me.

[Tebunker]

not much if anything.

[wonderpug]

Wow, looks like I'm not buying any September releases, how about that!  Plenty of titles from earlier months that I'm still trying to get around to buying, though.

[CeeKay]

just wait until October and November 

[dback99]

Im thinking one of the NHL games, but not sure which one yet.  Im really into the franchise stuff, so i'll rent both and see which one does a better job.   Outside of that, waiting for Oct/Nov.  Those are going to be expensive months

-dback

[kathode]

Eternal Sonata
Halo 3

Growlanser is a maybe.

The Sherlock Holmes game has been available for download for weeks now.  Is this just a retail release?

[CeeKay]

The Sherlock Holmes game has been available for download for weeks now.  Is this just a retail release?

yep.

[Louis Cypher]

Fishing Master, Halo 3

[Ridah]

If I can finish Blue Dragon in time, I'll get Eternal Sonata. Other than that, Halo 3 is a must, Stranglehold perhaps a GF rental.

[Farscry]

Nuthin'.

My last two purchases for the year that I can budget in are going to be Hellgate: London and one other title in December, probably Guitar Hero 3 or Halo 3.

[Bullwinkle]

The Sherlock Holmes game has been available for download for weeks now.  Is this just a retail release?

yep.

Weeks?  I got it months ago!

[Knightsabre]

Planning on Halo 3 and NHL 08 - still have to finish Bioshock before I start anything new, though . . .

[Turtle]

PS3:
Heavenly Sword
World Series of Poker 2008 - If the reviews are good, I'll use this to help me learn to play poker.

360:
Kengo: Legend of the 9 - Could this be the Bushido Blade replacement I've been looking for?  Only if reviews are good.
Eternal Sonata - Reviews first, but looks okay.
Halo 3 - um, duh?

[Gratch]

Possibly Worms for either PSP or DS, but that's it.  And my wallet will thank me for it.
