Since December's coming around, its time to start planning our holiday wish lists. To all of you, I ask what major games are top priority for you this season? Since my highest priority is to get the Nintendo Wii, my priorities in terms of games are rather short at the moment.
-Final Fantasy XII. One of the few games that ever lives up to all of the hype. I was quite impressed with the demo that came with DQ8, so I've been waiting for this game for a long time.
-Gears of War (360): Not much to say about it that hasn't already been said before.
-Sonic Rivals: The only truly good Sonic racing game. Its about time they got it right (I didn't like Sonic R or Riders, though I'll have to complete a bunch of stuff in R so I can mock the legendary Tails Doll curse).
-Castlevania Portrait of Ruin: On the lower end of my priority list, but its supposed to be fun.
Warning, shameless plug in ahead. There is one game I strongly recommend playing if you have a PS2. For those of you who like RPGs or know someone who does, you can't go wrong with Disgaea 2. Wonderfully deep, additctive gameplay plus a twisted yet hilarious story (everything from perverted, cowardly talking frogs with French accents, penguins that explode when tossed, sarcasatic item descriptions, "dark heroes" whose idea of villany is doing ding-dong ditches and crank phone calls, to egotistical demon lords that get more angry about being called flat than with people opposing her plans) makes for an experience you shouldn't miss doods. It came out last summer so it should still be really easy to find as well. Plus, the voice acting is decent.
