January is a crazy month filled with lotsa good games.
The ones I really want are:
- Bayonetta
- Mass Effect 2
- NMH Desperate Struggle
What games are you getting this month?
"Bayonetta - Mass Effect 2 - NMH Desperate Struggle "neither one interests me.
its... wait, i dont have any january games i want! unless Max Payne 3 / Battlefield Bad Company 2 / AC2 (PC) / Just Cause 2 / APB come out in jan
" @demontium said:Neither one? There are three games, so either 2 do not interest you or...."Bayonetta - Mass Effect 2 - NMH Desperate Struggle "neither one interests me. its... wait, i dont have any january games i want! unless Max Payne 3 / Battlefield Bad Company 2 / AC2 (PC) / Just Cause 2 / APB come out in jan "
I am not gonna overthink this, but we have different views on games, and that is clearly... clear.
"Bayonetta - Mass Effect 2 - NMH Desperate Struggle "Getting those three for sure. Also gonna try to pick up a copy of Silent Hill: Shattered Memories and maybe Dark Void depending on reviews
" @Binman88 said:I'm going to third this. I am a sucker for overpriced special editions with steel cases." I'm getting the ME2 collector's edition, purely because I prefer the box art to the standard one. :|Exactly what he said. "
I don't know if I'm going to buy any this month, new releases anyway. I may buy some older games like The Saboteur. But most of the games I want come out later in the year.
Buy right away: Mass Effect 2
Waiting for reviews: Dark Void
Already bought this month: C&C3: Tiberium Wars + Kane's Wrath expansion
" @Robiin said:I am not at all a sucker for that, but the regular boxart is just horrible, and not worthy a game of ME2:s caliber. While it's what's inside the box that matters, the special edition of ME2 is just 1000 times better." @Binman88 said:I'm going to third this.

I didnt have any problems with cd keys in my collectors edition of dragon age but anyway mass effect 2 collector edition is mine this month.
After all the issues with cd-keys for collectors edition content on Dragon Age, I'm gonna just buy it off Steam. Hopefully they do a Digital Deluxe again. "I played through Mass Effect on Xbox 360, and all my four end-game saves are there, so Iäll get that version of 2.
Yesterday I bought the Steam version of Mass Effect 1 though, it was ~4€ so I couldn't refuse! It's my favourite game ever, so I might as well get it for that price.
Prolly nothing until maybe the end of January, I just picked up Dragon Age this morning and that will take up some time
I'll probably rent either Bayonetta, Dante's Inferno, Dark Void or something, maybe wait for reviews and (if they are favorable) pick up MAG
Huge month dude
- Bayonetta
- Mass Effect 2
- NMH Desperate Struggle
- Tatsunoko vs Capcom
- Dark Void
- Silent Hill Shattered Memories
100% certainty: Mass Effect 2
15-20% chance: Bayonetta (I will eventually it's just I am so backlogged there is no reason to pick it up right now)

"Course all this is just assuming we are talking about games to come out late last year and Jan of this year... Cause there are a ton of olderish games I want more than these (Dead Space I am looking at you)."
- Bayonetta
- Mass Effect 2
- NMH Desperate Struggle
- Tatsunoko vs Capcom
- Dark Void
- Silent Hill Shattered Memories
these" Bayonetta (360) , Dark Void (PC) and Mass Effect 2 (PC). Damnit, here's to being broke again! "
@Robin
It's sad to think that more work probably went into the standard ME2 cover and it looks so much worse.
" All of these, except add in Divinity 2 :D "Divinity 2 blows my mind. I played the demo on XBL and there are so many things wrong with the game but at the same time I could for some reason not stop playing the demo and I can't figure out why. I can't even use the "cause its pure fun" card either because I hated most of the gameplay mechanics for various reasons... yet I kept trekking through the demo. Pretty sure I am broken.
Wait, No More Heroes 2 comes out this month?
....
Mass Effect 2, for sure. I may have to decide between NMH 2 and Dark Void.....
Was planning on getting Dark Void next month, but really want NMH2...

For me:
- Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep (probably my most anticipated game of all time and the reason I bought a PSP)
- Shadow of Destiny (PSP) (I already own this game for PC but wouldn't mind owning another copy for a portable system as I never got all the endings -- this game has insane replay value)
- Silent Hill: Shattered Memories (PS2)

I know where you are coming from, however, a lot of my favorite games over the past couple of years have been ultra unpopular around reviewers. Never bothers me though.
Probably nothing for January. Want to get Mass Effect 2 and Dark Void, but I have so many games I purchased from Steam these last few days it's going to take me a while to get through them.
I preordered Mass Effect 2 collectors edition at bestbuy today. Excited to get my bonus armor. Kinda want to get bayonetta but I'm at that point where I have to many games and little time to play them.
I am really excited about Mass Effect 2, but won't be able to get it at launch because I'm poor and can't buy things at full price. I'm still catching up to 2009. I just completed Crysis Warhead and Batman because of a Steam deal. Hopefully I'll be able to get Borderlands this month so as to not be completely out of the loop.
