As usual, there are no guarantees that some of these titles won't slip until 2010. I fully expect Diablo III to be pushed into next year, but I thought I'd include it anyway - just in case.

Voted for Dragon Age, as I've been waiting for it for ages (sorry ) and I'm sure I'll enjoy it. It's quite possible that at the end of 2009 it won't turn out to be the game I'll have enjoyed the most, but that's another matter.

I'll be keeping a close eye on Ego Draconis too, I liked Divine Divinity a lot.
Deus Ex 3 and SW: tOR are great names, but it's better not to expect anything really good and be surprised ^^

Can't say I'm looking forward to any of the titles listed here. Either because I'm not familiar with them or even if I've heard of them, they didn't come across as interesting to me.

I am looking forward to the PC version of the Last Remnant, though...

I really wanted to say Age of Decadence, but currently - I'm properly much more interested in SW:TOR.
I need a new MMO to play now that Mythic (IMO) dropped the ball.

Although I doubt that'll be released in 2009 actually

Voted Age of Decadence, it looks like a well thought RPG with lots of options.

But it was a hard choice between this and the Broken Hourglass. My guess is that the Broken Hourglass will be closer to Baldur's Gate than Dragon Age (but I would love to be wrong about Dragon Age).

Not sure they will be both released in 2009 though.

I know you can't put every game in the poll, but I am also looking forward to the PC version of the last Geneforge game and to Eschalon: Book II.

I will also keep an interested eye on the Drakensang translated version, but my interest has diminished since I read Fable's comments on the demo.

Age of Decadence. From what I've read on the Web, Broken Hourglass is lagging behind in development. I'm sympathetic, being a great fan of the work of Jason Compton and Westley Weimer, but from what I've seen Age of Decadence will appear in 2009. It will also include a lot of features that interest me. How well that roleplaying depth in theory pans out in reality, remains to be seen.

I suppose if the developers of AoD should ever want to bring their game up to current 3D graphical levels they'll have to implement a randomized bad camera angles AI, and that takes time. So the 2D version it'll have to be.

I just realized I can increase the number of poll options with a configuration change to vBlulletin, so Eschalon: Book II has been added.

I tried the demo myself and found it pretty boring.

I have to second that, though my perspective is probably less strategic than yours, and more roleplaying. I found the idea that all merchants stood outside their buildings, providing services, off-putting. And the combat AI, both for your people and your enemies, was ridiculously bad.

I voted Diablo 3 right away. To this day diablo 2 has been the game which has entertained me for most hours. From the release of Diablo 2 and until 2004 it was pretty much the only game i played and I still pick up on the game every 6th month so In my opinion its the single greatest game ever made, but then again im not as experienced a gamer as most of you and never touch any platforms but my pc. The gameplay i just too good to ever get tiresome xD And hey, Diablo was also an excellent game too! I have to admit that im quite curious about where the storyline will go though, but thats just another reason for me to get the game ^^ I hope the game will be released in a hollyday or i will be skipping school for sure for at least a week :P But i guess that it will not be on the shelves until 2010, not when you realize how little has been done... Is far as i know theres only two chars that has been made and even those are far from completed and I've read somewhere that the terrains in the trailers are for display only and is not part of the final game ( but then again Blizzard is always cautious about promissing anything xD )

But anyhow, I will be looking forward to getting my hands on Diablo 3 and just HAS to be good or it will be biggest dissapointment ever!

I voted for Dragon Age, but I am also looking forward to Dungeon Lords II. I liked the first DL, but only the Collector's edition.

Looking forward to Dragon Age and Alpha Protocol, and rather curious about Age of Decadence. Otherwise, not really interested in too many of the others. Diablo 3 and Deus Ex 3 might end up being worthwhile, though.

It's a tie between diablo 3 and Kings Bounty: Armored Princess.

I put my vote for KB and the reason for that is although I'm anticipating diablo 3, I'm currently not attracted to what I see. The graphics are fine, but the whole auto-leveling stats and zero item requirements seems to take away one of the main functions that made diablo 1 and 2 awesome.

I voted for AoD.

Nothing else really interests me that much. DE3 devs just don't get it, and no matter how hard I try I really can't get excited about DA.
