Chances are I'll only buy one of these game though.

me too - forgot about those two. the AoE3 preview stuff looks absolutely amazing.

So basically you are all looking forward to old games with better graphics? (X4, Y2, Z3...) Is there anything completely new that you think might be really good? Is there anything completely new coming up??? :blink:

Question should be: Is there anything REALLY new at all? ;)

I think we pretty much reached the point where EVERY concept has been done and tried at least once... the only possible varieties now come from graphics, engines etc...

Some genres have managed to have been created in the past few years, eg. Mario Party created a new genre essentially, we just need to keep hoping that there are innovative companies out there, that are willing to try something new, although I imagine with the rising costs of making games now a days especially on the console side, that this probably won't happen.

I dunno, Mario Party was not really THAT new, there were similiar games before (like Micro Machines). The mini-games might have been a little different, but the general concept was the same.

The last REALLY innovative thing to me was "eyetoy", and even THAT had it's predecessors...

I agree it really wasn't that new, but essentially it did create the board-game/mini game party genre, so that was new, to see that it continues to have successful sales, usually close to a million for each game is impressive,

Ugh Eyetoy, another odd idea from Sony, not that impressed with it, but yeah it didn have it's predecesors, guess we'll just have to wait and see what comes out, heck maybe nintendo's next gen system revolution, will be revolutionary with their games.

the cancelled babylon 5 game! ;)
