What an insane fall lineup

The games coming out this fall season are an assault on the senses. This is a way better lineup than last year. Games I care about include:

  • Dead Space - released Oct 13 to great reviews
  • Fable 2 - Oct 21
  • Far Cry 2 - Oct 22
  • Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 - Oct 28
  • Fallout 3 - Oct 28
  • Gears of War 2 - Nov 7
  • Call of Duty: World at War - Nov 11
  • Mirror’s Edge - Nov 11
  • World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King - Nov 13
  • Left 4 Dead - Nov 17
  • Prince of Persia - Dec 2

I’ve bolded the ones I’m definitely going to buy. Almost all of these are Xbox 360 titles. There are a couple good PS3 games (such as Little Big Planet), but I don’t have a PS3.

I’m cautious about Fallout 3. It has probably the biggest advertising campaign out of all of them, but I have a feeling it won’t meet expectations.

Lots of sequels in there. In fact, the only ones that aren’t a sequel or in some way part of an existing series are Dead Space, Mirror’s Edge, and Left 4 Dead.
