Just a Week Away (Part Two)

Morning all, so we continue with the long list of games that are being launched over the next few weeks. Plenty to keep everyone busy and plenty to kill my completion percentage challenge lol, anyway so this time we jumping one week forward from the last post. It was meant to be a quite week with only one game but already its shaping up to be another big day.

4th March
Rift
Brand new fantasy MMO that peaked my interest a few months back after watching a trailer. Basically at any point a Rift portal can open and a invasion army can come through, if left open for too long they start to take over the area. So you can log off safely in a village to come back later to find a war zone if the rifts are not kept under check, not only that but there are several factions that come through Rifts. So if two opposite rifts open the invasion armies will fight each other, it sounds awesome and so far I'm liking the beta. Also the class trees are huge, so many choices that I don't know where to start. I've ordered the collectors edition with all the lovely goodies, should be fun to play hopefully.

Hyperdimension Neptunia
Anime style RPG coming out on the Playstation 3, type of games I love but never finish! Can't really explain the game I would just say watch the trailer, as I said the style of game play and graphics appeal to me. I was going to buy this later on since I was not going to play it straight away but just found out can get a free hardcover artwork book for pre-ordering. Companies need to stop trying to tempt me!

Pokemon White and Black
Need I say more? lol I want the Black Version, if you read through my past posts you will see a post dedicated to this game and what makes its different. But a quick summary why I'm looking forward to it, new battle system and seasons are the two big things for me. oh and of course extra 150 new Pokemon (I wonder if they running out of ideas yet). This will be a day one purchase!

Warriors: Legend of Troy
Basically a Greek Dynasty Warriors game, I'm a huge fan of Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors so this is right up my street. Basically over the top characters that take on huge armies, can get a bit repetitive but I find it a lot of fun Not sure if I will get it on day one though since there is so much coming out

Dawn of War 2 Retribution
Cannot wait!!! I love the dawn of war series, its been one of my favourite all time RTS games. This time its bringing back several classics modes and features, first upplanet type campaigns are back. This is where you take over sectors and aim to control the entire planet while fighting multiple factions. Also thrown in again is playing as different factions, its going to be awesome! Orks, Chaos Space Marines, Imperial Guard (new race), Space Marines and Tyranids! Think this game could take up most of my time for the next few weeks and be on the list for game of the year


So that's it for the 4th, doesn't like many but when you take in the fact what came out the week before you can see why it becomes so costly. Next post will contain the next few weeks since only a few games are coming out.

Edit: Forgot to add Dawn of War 2 Retribution
