As stated above, I'm here for one game in this list - Dragon Age: Origins for the PC. I'll be grabbing that Tuesday and I'll see you all in a week or two.

That said - what are you buying this week?

[CeeKay]

I guess I may pick up Dragon Age, it'll probably be a piece of bug ridden shovelware.  I didn't think Rock Band LEGO was due this week, thought it was an end of the month release but GS lists it this week too, and I'll be grabbing that eventually.

edit to add:  I see they're also re-releasing the AC/DC track pack for RB for 20 bucks.

[Dante Rising]

Dragon Age: Origins  Deluxe edition

I'm getting the PC version for the tactical view option.

[jersoc]

NOTHING. EFF YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm extremely, very, a lot, hesitant for dragon age. I'll let other people play it first. if it's good i'll just use my 20$ gc from amazon and get it for the cheapo.

next week though will rock.

[Razgon]

Dragonage I'm afraid...

[TiLT]

I could say Dragon Age, but technically I bought it last week.

[The Grue]

Dragon Age, even though I am never home and I still have to play through Brutal Legend, Uncharted 2, Ratchet and Clank 2: A Crack in Time, and Borderlands.

[KC]

Dragon Age for the 360.

[Fellow]

Dragon Age: Origins for the PC. 

[Jarrodhk]

Nothing, which is just as well since I don't have much free time this week. 

[Purge]

Dragon Age for PC; prolly rent the RB:Lego and AC:DC packs.

[ATB]

Zippy.

Next week is MW2, and if my math is right, the GOd of War Collection.

[Chaz]

Would be Dragon Age for the PC, but I actually have to wait until probably next week to get it because I'm getting it via a work connection for an amazing price.  What with Borderlands, Torchlight, and Forza, I could probably use the delay.

SL, your math be wrong.  The God of War collection comes out on th 17th, which is the same day as AssCred2.

[Gratch]

I'm holding off on Dragon Age until I get a new PC sometime around the first of the year.  So nothing for me.

[Soulchilde]

Dragon Age: Origins DDE from Steam.  Already preloaded with a 15.3gig footprint.  Just waiting for the unlock

[Booner]

DA:O for the PC.

I just hope my RMAed video card gets here tomorrow...it's scheduled to, but ya never know.  

[Devil]

Maybe: Lego Rock Band

Probably: Nothing

[Bullwinkle]

360:
Dragon Age: Origins - IN
Lego Rock Band - IN, unless reviews really tank it

Wii:
Need for Speed: Nitro - maybe, but it needs to be different enough from the 360 version (oh, and good)
Rabbids Go Home - I like the idea of this, but I will wait for revs/imps

DS:
C.O.P. The Recruit - I thought there was buzz building for this, once upon a time.  I'm curious 
Star Wars Battlefront: Elite Squadron  - Interested, but definitely need revs/imps

[metallicorphan]

Dragon Age:Origins -360
Wallace and Gromit Episode 2-360 xbla episodes 3 and 4 are also out on Wednesday but i will have to get them at a later date

[denoginizer]

Lego Rock Band on the 360 for me.  

[farley2k]

Nothing but I got notice from Gamefly that they sent out Dragon Age.  Lucky me.  Since there hasn't been a lot of talk about the console version I feel like I saved $60 on a risk.

[Beer Goggles]

Dragon Age from Impulse.

[coopasonic]

Dragon Age: Origins DDE from Steam.  Already preloaded with a 15.3gig footprint.  Just waiting for the unlock

What he said and I'll be adding Rock Band Lego to my goozex requests.

[semiconscious]

dragon age: origins - because it has the 3 ingredients that separate the great rpgs from the also-rans (like demon's souls): conversation trees, elves, & dwarves ...

[leo8877]

Nothing for me this week!

[Lorini]

Dragon Age on the PC because I got it for $27 from Amazon, $47 original price minus two $10 credits from buying Forza and DJ Hero, no tax and free shipping. It shipped from DE yesterday, so hopefully I'll get it by the weekend or so. Nothing else, I still have Tropico 3 to play!

[Autistic Angel]

My Dragon Age: Origins CE for the PC has shipped out from Amazon and should be arriving tomorrow.

-Autistic Angel

[jblank]

Band Hero (360)
Lego Rock Band (360)
Dragon Age (360) if its reviews are good.

[DamageInc]

Dragon Age: Origins CE -- 360

[Sparhawk]

Dragon Age: Origins from Steam. Pre-Loading now!

[Caine]

probably nothing as even though da:o sounds pretty cool, i doubt i'll get it via gamefly, and in any case, it would only get pushed to the side next week.

[kronovan]

DA:O on 360. VC and Wiiware don't have anything worthwhile this week, so possibly the XBLA game if it's good.

[Destructor]

Battle of Giants: Dragons – Bronze Edition
Publisher: Ubisoft
Players: 1-4
ESRB Rating: E10+ (Everyone 10 and Older) – Mild Fantasy Violence

Waitasecond...didn't this just come out on the DS in cart form? Like 3 or 4 weeks ago?

[Jancelot]

Dragon Age 360

[Ridah]

I'm not buying anything this week. The DS and Wii lists are disgusting.

[Bullwinkle]

Destructor- Yep.  This is a stripped-down version, apparently (thus the 'Bronze,' I suppose).  Less than the game, more than a demo.

[Destructor]

I'm not buying anything this week. The DS and Wii lists are disgusting.

More and more crapware each and every week or your money back! 

[Bullwinkle]

More and more crapware each and every week or your money back! 

They've been promising better stuff (and the Lost Winds sequel is excellent), but, yeah, none of it has made it into the pipeline yet (I haven't even seen previews yet).

[marcusjm]

Dragon Age should be a no-brainer but I will have some days to see what you guys think
before I get it thanks to re-paint of livingroom. I will probably get it for both PC and 360, PC once the mods
start coming.
