    @Stardust
    Good luck!

    I'm probably not that much better for nominating STALKER though.
    apart from that Just Cause looks awsome, so does Scarface. Other than that I'm not too sure. Come on Games Industry - wow (not the acronymn) me.

    Oh yeah, forgot to mention The second expansion for Dawn Of War, Dark Crusade! And on the note, I'm REALLY looking forward for the immensely good-looking fan-made mod also: "The Thousand Sons". Any 40K fan probably knows what the name means.

    Gothic 3 and M&M DM. But I agree that DM may prove to be a disappointment.

    Although, the Might and Magic spin-offs are invariably awful Dark Messiah does at least show some promise. Be warned, however, since I recall having similar somewhat misplaced hopes about Legends of Might and Magic! :(

    A decent party-based D&D game...if Wizards of the Coast can dig their heads out of their asses long enough to grant a license to a decent developer.

    The most, KotOR 3. Then NWN 2. Apart from that, I don't know. Are they even going to make Might & Magic 10? And what guarantees it won't be crap? There's probably going to be a Warcraft IV announced some time not so soon, but still. Looking forward to Fallout 3... if they don't screw it up. Or Baldur's Gate 3... I don't even know anything about the developer who's making it, eh. But maybe it will be good. Dragon Age, of course. And whatever comes next in the Dune world. There must be something.

    @ DR

    I couldn't agree more, I had been waiting for D&D online hoping for something but the turnout, as you all know, a mediacore hack 'n' slash game with no deph at all.

    It's likely 2 years before you hear these words seriously, and another 2 years in development after that, but...

    Sid Meier's Civilization V.

    Civ IV is awesome, and I am curious to see what they do for an encore...

    I can't play Civ IV or Civ V. I went into CA (Civilizationoholics Anonymous) after Civ 2. I went off the wagon a bit with Civ III but my life would be ruined forever if I succumbed to the temptations of harder forms of that addictive drug.

    I am eagerly awaiting Neverwinter Nights 2 so long as I can find a computer on which to play it.

    Only 3 games at the moment (one of which is currently vaporware). They are:

    -NWN2
    -Dragonage
    -BG3

    More or less in that order, although BG3 would likely jump to the top if I had any evidence that it was actually working on it, and the PR guys were asking better questions than "you want to see the fear in that Orcs eyes, don't you?" Talk about being out of touch with Baldur's Gate fans. :bang:

    I think Dark Messiah will be quite the hit. It seems to be in very capable hands after playing the demo.

    I can't believe that no one is eagerly anticipating Bioshock. Of course fallout 3 on my list and Kotor 3 if it ever comes out.

    Age of Decadence is my main interest - finally an RPG being made by someone with a clue...

    Ofelix, isn't FF XII already out? At least some cousin of my friend had purchased it already... might be it was japanese version thought...
    Anyways, after X, followed by XI, I basically threw away all the hope for Final Fantasy-series to be of any real quality anymore.

    Spellforce 2 isn't available in Montreal yet? I just picked it up a couple of weeks ago in California--same continent, so I would hope that you'll be seeing it soon.
