Does anyone else think November is going to be AMAZING!?
I'm considering not working over winter break and just gaming...

October 28: Red Alert 3

November 11: Call of Duty: World of War

November 11: Mirror's Edge

November 18: Grand Theft Auto IV

November 18: Left 4 Dead

Mirror's Edge is questionable. I just happened to run into that while finding the exact dates and added it. But RA3, L4D, CoD:WoW, and GTA4 are all WIN.

EDIT: Fixed the l4d date change.
All dates are US release dates, the EU dates are a few days off.

Aye, tis going to be a good one. I just hope I get my good computer fixt in time. I would add a few more to that list, but I realised that they we're already out, don't have a release date, or aren't going to be out till 2009 or later...

Although, here's a personal addition from me...

November 25th: World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King

There's no official date yet, except "October - December 2008", but November 25th would not only be WoW's 4 year anniversary, but also it's the last tuesday of November like the original WoW.

2.5 games worth a damn doesn't really make it the best month around.

Fallout III and Mirrors Edge are the two biggest games on my horizon.

One of them's not even a new release (GTA4), one of 'em isn't even being released in November (Red Alert), and one of them is goddamn Call of Duty.

So, yeah.

Bug Report: Game crashes on Install.
I know a guy doing Vista testing. He try to install programs on a Vista computer to test JUST if it installs and boots. He said most of the M$ programs he tried to install would crash on install. I thought that was too funny...

Anyone else in the need on money?
With the new Kirby and Castlevania out on the DS, I'm already straping to spare cash...

RA3 comes out TOMARROW.
L4D is out in a few weeks.

A few games for PC already hit this past week or two...
Anyone want to spot me like 200 bucks?

CoD 4 was pretty good. But I've completely lost faith now that they're reverting back to the way overdone WWII nonsense.

Well it's not being done by infinity ward, which mean's it's just someone else raking in cash over fist for a refurbished product.

TBH I can't stand modern weaponry. They're so dull.

But anyway, I found the CoD4 single player stuff to be incredibly tiring. The only parts of the game I wished was longer was the sniping part and the other time where you're shooting the shit out of people in Death from Above. Those are the only parts of the game I actually enjoyed going back to.

Of course, I constantly find myself going back to WW2 shooters. CoD1 and 2, Medal of Honor Airborne (specifically this one, probably the best WW2 FPS of the bunch), all Brothers in Arms games... the weaponry and action is just better.

All I'm looking for at this point is a nice WW2 FPS with weapon jamming.

Edit: Anyway, this month and the next were supposed to be huge for my PC gaming collection but it turns out I'm only grabbing one game out of the entire mess because of the DRM crap. I may just buy it and 'get rid of' the SecuRom if you catch my drift.

The only game that got my interest in all the previously mentioned ones is L4D and unfortunately my PC is below the minimum requirements so that sucks big time.

Fallout 3... I remember countless hours playing the first two and I wish my PC didn't suck balls so bad that I can't play the third.

Just played World At War, if you liked the multiplayer of call of duty 2, you'll love this game, it's almost the same, except you unlock weapons and you level up. Get stuff for your machine guns like bipods.

You're rewarded for kill streaks.

3 kills = Recon Plane ( See people on your map )
6 kills = Artillery ( Blow up a place in the map for a few seconds )
7 Kills = Dogs ( They run at weapon and eat their faces. )

Yeah, that's exactly the same as COD4's except dogs instead of helicopters.

We'll also have the new expansion for Neverwinter Nights 2 on November 18.
The release date was kinda confirmed here (http://www.atari.com/us/games/neverwinter_nights2_storm_of_zehir/dvd_rom).

I'm not touching wotlk.

Until they can make a mmo have amazing crysis like in-game graphics, I will never play another one. WoW is a perfect example of the opposite of that.

So you could be disappointed? :| Don't get it 'cuz you loved Fallout, get it 'cuz you loved Oblivion and think post-apoc is fairly neat.

Anyway. On my "Games to Get List":

Left 4 Dead
Fallout 3
Dead Space
Silent Hill: Homecoming
The Witcher
