Beyond Good & Evil, and Pixel Junk Shooter 2.  Probably Vagrant Story, too.

[metallicorphan]

on xbox.com forums,there is a thread on there where they are saying Beyond Good and Evil has been delayed,some are saying until March 9th(which is meant to be Torchlight week)and someone else is saying that on the marketplace it now says 16th March..not sure how true it all is

I hope its BS,because i am really looking forward to playing the game again...and Major Nelson(the git)has had it on his gamercard for over a month

EDIT:on dashboard click on the houseparty tile from Game Marketplace 'row'(don't actually go into game marketplace),and B,G and E says March 9th...bastard!!

[stryker]

nada this week.
next week
DA II
and strangely even more looking forward to
MLB 11: The Show

I'm trying something different for a less clutterful experience.  But know that there's a new Bit.Trip game this week.

Spoiler for Nintendo Weekly Update:

Some of them want to enter your domain and have decided to build a tower to confront you. Use your divine powers to bring them down and show them who's boss. Be careful not to hurt them though – you need people to believe in you. The game includes 60 levels for the solo campaign, 16 playable gods with specific powers, four hysterical bosses to defeat and 16 additional challenges for experienced players.

Also new to Pong Toss Pro is a Tournament Mode that supports four-, eight- or 16-team bracket play. Pong Toss Pro features six regulation tables and the ability to modify simple house rules. Rock it with a high-energy soundtrack and listen to the announcer commenting on your play. Rule the table with Fireball bonuses for consecutive shots. In Speed Pong, up to three challengers can compete at the same time. Speed and strategy are key in this fast-paced game. Jack up your opponents by using a slew of power-ups that will slow them down.

Completely random thought as I'm typing this up - I wonder how many of these I've compiled over the years...

With our busted search, my research puts the number between 271 and 300.

And I'm not buying anything.

[Devil]

Punchy Punch

[farley2k]

Beyond Good & Evil HD (XBLA)

I may get this but since I have finished it before I am having a hard time justifying it. 

[The Grue]

I bought Rift over the weekend.  Will get Retribution one day when I finish the first two Dawn of War 2 games, which will probably be never since all I can ever seem to play are MMOs.  Will also probably get Beyond Good and Evil HD one day as well.

I see how it is.

[PR_GMR]

Couldn't pick Bulletstorm last week.. so I may pick it this Friday on payday. And I'm now being tempted by Rift. Ugh. So.. I shall see what develops this weekend.

a lot.

[Purge]

Nada. I've got a preorder for DA2 and I'm jonesin' for a shooting match in Colorado against some Korean invasion forces.

[Soulchilde]

Nada.. next week will be DA2.  I'll buy Retribution at a later date

[mytocles]

There's nothing on those lists for me, and I'll be lucky if I finish FO:NV by the time DA2 comes out - but I will likely pre-order DA2 this week.

[metallicorphan]

yay,Major Nelson just confirmed that B,G and E is out this Wednesday...so yeah,i am getting that

[Autistic Angel]

I preordered the physical Collector's Edition of Dawn of War 2: Retribution from THQ's store, but since I chose one of the cheapest shipping options, it won't arrive until Thursday or so.

-Autistic Angel

[Gratch]

Definitely Beyond Good & Evil (any little drop in the bucket that will help BG&E 2 get made is worth it), and Vagrant Story.  Probably Xenogears on PSN as well.

(You didn't see I had done the same research earlier in the thread and came to a similar conclusion)

[JayDee]

Nothing this week. Biding my time until three sports games come out in four weeks, starting next week with baseball. Then Tennis. Then Golf.

[Chaz]

So...two sports games and a golf game, then?

buh-dum-ching

[EngineNo9]

I will be getting Beyond Good & Evil HD on the 360 to support the movement for a sequel. 

[Chaz]

I'll probably be getting Beyond Good and Evil and Pixel Junk Shooter 2.  Vagrant Story at some point.

You know, I was totally joking on this, but now I know. Cool.

[Caine]

nada.  saving my monies for later

[Jarrodhk]

This March reminds me of past fall seasons. Too many games I'm interested in coming out within a couple weeks of each other.

[Harkonis]

this is definitely true.  I'm just sticking with Rift and Homefront I think.
