Its gunna be a good Fall!

[[JiF]Rhykin]

Wow, I forgot to add Medal of Honor Airborne, Unreal Tournament 3 and Call of Duty 4 to the list..

I'm not going to have much money by the time November rolls around..

[[JiF]Rhykin]

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway and Assassin's Creed are added. Both releasing in November. I also URL'd all the games for easier access in case you didn't know what a particular game was about.

My head hurts.

[[JiF]LtWaterboy]

Wow.... Assassin's Creed IS goin to be for the PC????

they must have just changed that a month ago at best, was only for PS3 (and I think Xbox) originally..... woohooo!!!!

LT

ps. anyone check out Gears of War for the PC??

[[JiF]Rhykin]

Added Gears of War (November 1, 2007) and Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance (November 6, 2007).

[[JiF]Rhykin]

Added Simcity Societies, Blacksite: Area 51, Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (Yeah, it's a PC Game surprisingly), Need for speed ProStreet, Hellgate London and Winning Eleven: Pro Evolution Soccer 2008.

IGN Finally knows where its head is at:

Metacritic reviews out for ET:QW and COH:OF (which was just released - you had it dated for early Nov.)

http://www.metacritic.com/games/platfor ... singfronts
http://www.metacritic.com/games/platfor ... yquakewars

83 for both so far but only a handful of reviews. ET:QW got knocked because the single player stinks but it's getting favorable reviews in comparison to TF2 as an online FPS.

Not sure why COH is getting the low grades. Every review is good. Just notes that it appears to be for 'advanced' CoH players.

THERE ARE TOO MANY GAMES!

[[JiF]Sly Gambit]

IGN just put out an update on dates for Fall releases:

Also Enemy Territory: Quake Wars is getting good Multiplayer reviews:

Currently has a Metacritic score of 85.

Rhykin,

Thanks for posting this list. So many games and so little time....

[[JiF]Rhykin]

Ahh.. Finals are over. Now I can update this list@!

[[JiF]EA]

call of duty 4 will be the best game for pc, and consoles in the fall.

I think everyone needs to try the Crysis demo when it comes out next week, I think its the 16th. I have been playing the beta and I have not seen a game yet that has come anywhere close to the graphics. Its going to take a good system to run it as it brings mine down to its knees when I play.

Call of Duty 4 just came out and is getting huge reviews:

92 meta at the moment. Great reviews on the MP. Decent reviews on the SP.
