Super stoked for Advance Wars to finally drop next month, but Zelda has to be the winner.

Oh yeah good one I'll have to add it to the bottom of the poll though.

Elden Ring DLC and Black Myth: Wukong, and that's pretty much it. Everything else is either stuff I have very low expectations for or stuff I just don't really care about TBH.

 

[JuanMena]

Prime 4.
Mark my words: November 2023

Resident Evil 4! It was hard to choose but my father really likes the RE series (and had a GameCube to play RE4 on back when I was a baby lol) and he likes to watch me play RE7 and RE8, so I'll likely do the same for RE4R. Good bonding activity!

 

[Anxiety_timmy]

Im picking advance wars just because I absolutely loved those games when I was younger.

 

[CoolMe]

Starfield i think. Though that's quite a selection there..

 

[The Catboy]

I am rarely excited about AAA games these days, but I am excited for Tears of the Kingdom.

 

[RAHelllord]

The biggest game I'm hyped for this year is Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown. That god damn game better live up to the first two titles because it's still pretty much the only racing game series with a giant 1:1 recreation of a world map and fast cars to drive there.

Also I guess Metroid Prime 4 and Starfield, but both of those have pretty decent alternatives so I'm not quite as starved for those as I am for the next TDU installment.

 

[Armadillo]

Hollow Knight Silksong.

 

[caipora]

Well it is definitelly TLoZ Tears of the Kingdon, but i won't be able to play it :'-) guess i'll just watch it on YouTube sometimes

Absolutely Zelda, I am a huge fan

I am one of those people who counts their life in increments of how many more Zelda games I will get to play before I die

Sadly it's only 10 or 11, but better than the half life fans (0)

 

[hippy dave]

From the given list, Zelda is an easy pick. I'm currently finishing up with BOTW so the timing is nice.
Metroid Prime 4 would be good but nothing has yet made me believe it's coming this year. 2 and 3 would be welcome in the interim tho.

Honestly, with how leaky Nintendo has been lately, I wouldn't doubt there are people out there with inside information lol

 

[Jayro]

Tears of the Kingdom, but I really wish the dumb bitch that got Bootcamp 1+2 early would have dumped the game, instead of erasing it.

Lol at first glance I thought everybody was trolling and 48% had voted for Suicide Squad. Anyway, Resident Evil 4, Baldur's Gate 3, and TOTK are practically guaranteed to be GOTY nominees, FF16, Armored Core 6, and STALKER 2 all have a ton of potential to be great. Street Fighter 6 might well succeed in bringing a level of passion back to the FGC that we haven't seen since the SF2/3 days.

If I had to guess what the biggest disappointments will be, probably Starfield and Diablo 4. Suicide Squad we know will be garbage just based on what we've seen of it already.

Of course the borefest is leading with a massive margin; people just can't get enough of a bland, ugly, generic open-world with a Legend of Zelda skin and multiple player-hostile mechanics, it seems...sigh.

As for me? Spider-Man 2, Pikmin 4, Xenoblade 3's last DLC, Ghost Trick on Switch, and Professor Layton and the New World of Steam.

It's okay to not be a Zelda fan. Sure, the game had it's problems, but Nintendo usually take and fixes most of the big complaints in their sequels with QoL fixes.

It was tough to choose just one but I went with Spider-Man 2.. SF6 was a very close second.

I'm also thrilled that one of my favourite franchises of all time is making a return this year.. Robocop! The game will probably be meh but it's freaking Robocop!
