I'm done with all the games I have and was just seeing the calender for 2013 for gaming.
Here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_in_video_gaming

Feels like it is a big year for gaming.
Looking out and following:
Crysis 3
SimCity
Dead Island: Riptide
The Last of Us
Battlefield 4
Grand Theft Auto V
Total War: Rome II
I hope I can get them all :)
 
I think imight have to buy BF4, might be getting BF3 later this week with premium for my pc, the xbox version isnt right.
 
I'll be mainly waiting for ports of various source games to linux, especially CS:GO. Other then that, I was going to get SimCity, but after the announcement of the horrible DRM they are putting on it, I wont be buying it.

That is my first aim, but whats exactly DRM?
 
I guess GTA 5, but honestly nothing right now.

BF4 can go die in a hole so a massive effing turd can be taken on it. 1942 comes out, great game. You then have 3 years development to get BF2, incredible game. 8 year development cycle for BF3 which is one of the first major, fresh, innovative FPS titles in years, it is an awesome game. ~12 months after release, they throw Elite at you, I can live with buying more map packs, missions and what not, it is like the BF2 expansions. But you then have them pull an Activision on you and say the next game is out next year, right after they bring out these expansions costing as much as an entire game. All the time EA carry on with their money grabbing BS, BF can go die and the sooner the better
 
Not really interested in any of those games to be honest. :/ Though the original Rome Total War was fun! :)

Not even a single from wikipedia link I mentioned :confused:?? I think there will be at least one game in there for you.

I just had a very quick look and no there's nothing there really. Most of them appear to be shooters from a quick glance, and shooters aren't really my thing. I prefer racing/arcade games.

Essentially Anti-Piracy prevention. For example, every game on Steam uses Steam Guard, which is DRM. That's all fine, but some companies take it too far, most notably EA and Ubisoft.

When I was referring to the DRM for SimCity, read this:

Hmmm, no game saves on HDD, I have also heard that every move in the game will be saved on the server.
I understand they need to sync it for other players, but I am afraid how much internet usage will be needed for this data transferring.
 
I'm mainly upset I can't play offline. I enjoy the simcity games, and they are a great time killer when traveling. Always online when traveling is impossible unless you use a hotspot of some kind, and I'm not doing that just so I can play a game.
They are arguing it's needed because your city affects other players cities, but why can't I just play a simple offline game with no other players cities, just like it has been in the past?
 
Dead Space 3
Crysis 3
SimCity
BioShock Infinite
Dead Island: Riptide
The Elder Scrolls: Online
Grand Theft Auto: V
GRID 2
Metro: Last Light

:D

Give the modders time, there would be a way in re-routeing the IP that the game checks for connection to the servers, and then you have to run a server locally. After of course buying it legitimately.
 
I saw video from E3 of the game "Watch Dogs". That looks really fun and I'm looking forward to that one.

I'm well aware this will happen, but I'm not going to buy a game that doesn't provide this core functionally.

Also, I didn't know Elder Scrolls Online was slated for next year, but if it does get released that should be awesome (I hope) :o
