Games your looking forward to

What games are you looking forward to?
This can be a game close to release or that has just been anounced!

At the moment i'm realy looking forward to:

Kohan 2 Kings of War: i realy liked part one, to bad that it didnt became very popular, but that had nothing to do with the game. Great gameplay, and it adds something unique to the RTS genre.

Conquest 2: the sequal to Conquest Frontier Wars, a great space RTS that was released to early cause of developer problems, and Conquest2 is going to be what part 1 should have been. Although in my opinon, part one is very good. but again like with Kohan, never realy became popular.

Dragon Age: Who isnt curious for the new Bioware RPG!?

Well, seeing as you didn't specify which platform, I'll assume all are fair game

The new Zelda game coming next year. The E3 demo video of it looked simply amazing, and I'm considering buying a Game Cube simply for that game.

As for other systems and games, nothing really has caught my eye. Perhaps Rome:Total War, but that's about it, really.

Dragon Empires (Codemasters - MMORPG).
This could be the next big MMORPG for me, and if it gets ahold of me, then I know what I'll be playing for 2 years after its release

Unfortunally - it is still in closed beta, so there is quite some time yet, but hey - I'm a patient man (sometimes).

Otherwise - there are some RPGs comming out I'm looking forward to.
The Fall of Gaia (I think it is called) seems to have a sort of Fallout feel to it.
Dragon Age from Bioware, but this I know little about yet.
World of Warcraft (MMORGP) could also hold some interest for me, untill Dragon Empires is released (or I get into beta).

Dragon Age - Because its made by Bioware, and combines the best elements of BG, NWN and Kotor.

Half-Life 2 - Looks great, gravity gun, and it's Half-Life 2 unlike other games.

Freedom Force 2 - I loved Freedom Force so naturally I look forward to FF2

I dunno. I was seriously dissapointed with Frozen Throne (As I am with almost all Blizzard expansion packs). It didn't add anything ground breaking to the game, and just expanded on the existing cheese of the races.

Well .... we actually don't know this yet.
It could become a lousy failure, for all we know.

Remember not to fall for hype

Indeed, NWN immediately springs to mind...

And a few I forgot to add to my previous list:

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines - Good action RPG + great graphics

FEAR - Made by Monolith, makers of NOLF and looks to have great atmosphere

Rome: Total War - EPIC

Battlefield 2 - Because I'm biased

Half-Life 2.
SWG: Jump to Lightspeed
Jedi Knight 4: Whatever it will be.
Whatever secret project is being put out by Petroglyph Games. (Formerly Westwood Studios, creators of Command and Conquer.)
Starcraft 2. Wishful thinking, anyone?
Freedom Force 2
The sequel to XIII (it definately ended on a cliffhanger too big to ignore)
Ghost Recon 2
A new Delta Force. Something better than Black Hawk Down, and just as good as Task Force Dagger.
Ground Control 2 (pre-ordered, havent picked it up yet.)
Natural Selection Beta 5!
KOTOR 2
Elder Scrolls 4: Better Be as Good as Morrowind
Rainbow Six 4...If it'll exist...
-------------------------------
I plan to have all of thse at some point I will keep my title as PC gaming deity as long as possible!

I'll add WoW to my list, too. It will probably be the first MMORPG that I try (because I really can't afford a pay-per-month fee). WoW seems worth the trouble, though.

The up-and-coming Guild Wars has no monthly fee, and is an MMORPG.

Thief: Deadly shadows
-already out, but I was looking forward to it ever since I knew about it. Now I can't stop playing it.
Looking forward to:
Knights of the Old Republic: Sith Lords
Fable (Of course.)
Morrowind: Elder Scrolls IV
Halo 2

And I think I heard of another Deus Ex coming out... Not sure though. If it is, I'm definitely waiting for it.
