Below are the fall 2008 video game releases that I’m most looking forward to, not sure of and two 2009 games that I’m chomping at the bit to play.

Fall 2008 Can’t Wait

• Oct 17? – Max Payne 3 – Only Rumoured – but the Mark Walberg movie comes out Oct 17. Max Payne 1 and 2 were two of my all-time favourite games. [Update: Oops - so much for wild guesses]
• Oct 21 – LittleBigPlanet (PS3) – Who isn’t looking forward to this one?
• Nov 4 – Resistance 2 (PS3) – I enjoyed Resistance 1 much more than I expected.
• Nov 7 – Gears of War 2 (360)– What’s not to love? Can’t have too many COGs.
• Nov 11 – Mirror’s Edge – Looks like pure platforming fun like Crackdown was.
• Nov 18 – Tomb Raider: Underworld – I hope they finally get frame rate issues resolved – every Tomb Raider to date has made me nauseous within a half hour.
• Dec 2 – Prince of Persia 2008 – This one is looking like its getting back to its excellent PoP: Sands of Time roots. I wasn’t a fan of the intervening PoPs.
