Question:
What upcoming games are you looking forward to the most?
What PC games that haven't been released yet are you looking forward to playing the most? If you can, please state why and also let us know about the approximate release date if you know it. You don't have to list just the ones coming out in the near future - ones in the distant future (but have been confirmed!) are ok too. Hopefully this can be sort of a heads-up for others. Here are my top 10 (with current U.S. release dates, sorry for the bias), and I'll rank them since I love to rank things:
1. Starcraft 2 - Follow-up to my fave strategy game of all-time. Previews look amazing!
Release date: Blizzard says "when it's done". I predict 12/08
2. Aliens (RPG) - A game in my fave genre based on my fave movie of all-time by Obsidian (formerly Black Isle Studios... Fallout series, Planescape Torment, Icewind Dale series, KOTOR2, NWN2)!?! Hellz ya! There's also an Aliens FPS coming out on consoles only. :/
Release date: 2009
3. Warlords Battlecry IV - The first true RTS/RPG hybrid series. Very underrated. Can't wait!!
Release date: None yet. I predict 2009
4. Dragon Age - From Bioware, the company who made the Baldur's Gate series, Neverwinter Nights, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Jade Empire, and currently Mass Effect (for consoles). It's been called the "spiritual successor" to BG2, but the perspective will be KOTOR/JE style.
Release date: None yet. I predict 2009
5. BioShock - Pretty much System Shock 3, from the same creators. Please go and play SS2 if you haven't!
Release date: 8/21/07 (holy crap that's almost here!!!)
6. TimeShift - FPS with time travel and manipulation (slow down/speed up) at a whim? Sign me up!
Release date: 10/03/07
7. Hellgate: London - From some of the Diablo folks, so it's sort of a Diablo 3.
Release date: 10/31/07
8. Grand Theft Auto IV - Yup, you know the one. A lot of hype about this game.
Release date: None yet (console release is 10/08). I predict 6/09
9. Fallout 3 - Love the Fallout series, and this time with much better graphics!
Release date: 3/08
10. World Series of Poker 2008 - Yes, I'm THAT big of a poker person, hoping that they finally get one right.
Release date: 9/25/07
Any thoughts on the above? I purposely didn't put any expansion packs up there even though they could be (e.g., NWN2, FEAR, C&C3 expansions). So, what'd I "forget"? (I can already hear it.. 'Where's Crysis? Spore? Far Cry 2? Call of Duty 4? The Sims 9?") Let's hear your lists! ;)

Re: What upcoming games are you looking forward to the most?
Out of your list, I'm only anticipating Bioshock, TimeShift, GTA 4, and Fallout 3.
First of all, GTA4 is NOT being released in October for consoles or PC or anything. It has been delayed to April 2008, which is for the console release. The PC version will either come with them or much after.
I've never played System Shock 2 or any of the Fallout games. However, Fallout 3 looks amazing after reading some previews and looking at screenshots. Bioshock...not much to say about it. The game is awesome.

1) Starcraft II. The sequel to the classic RTS game that wowed everyone when it was released. So far everything is great. I love it, I want it ;).
My release date prediction: June 2008
2) Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties. Adds China, Japan and India into AOE III, with all new units like samurai, flamethrowers, elephants. This is gonna be fun.
My release date prediction: November 2007
3) The Sims 3. Who knows what EA/Maxis can do next? But better graphics, better gameplay is already enough for me to buy it.
My release date prediction: February 2009

for me i think its
GTA 4
ohh just saw that Aliens RPG from your list, looking forward to that too than. I liked KOTOR 1&2 and Jade Empire
and perhaps Bioshock
don't really care about Starcraft 2, not the biggest fan of Starcraft 1, it feels like just any other RTS to me

Re: What upcoming games are you looking forward to the most?
I'm really excited for Will Wright's Spore...it seems like a pretty vast "god game" (basically you create a creature from its cellular beginnings, eventually taking it through its technological advances until they roam the galaxy in faster-than-light ships).
Unfortunately, it's been delayed at least once -- I believe one time from May '07 to September '07, and evidently, now it's into 2008. I really hope it's as exciting and fun as it would seem...and also that it doesn't have a dozen plus sequels like The Sims...

I don't think Jesus would want to play a game in which the goal is wage war?
