[QUOTE]EA leads off its earnings call this afternoon with a press release detailing the company's 2011 release calendar. The usual suspects are right where we knew they'd be -- Skate 3 leading off, Madden NFL 11 on the way, and Crysis 2 by Quarter 3 of the fiscal year -- but Q4 might hold some surprises.
Right now Q4 is booked with Dead Space 2, Bulletstorm, and a Need for Speed title. But there's also a mysterious Dragon Age Title TBA, a Fighting Title TBA, a Spore Title TBA, and a New Sims Title TBA. That Dragon Age Title may be Dragon Age: Origins -- Darkspawn Chronicles, but it's listed for Handheld/mobile as well as Console and PC, so maybe it's a different game. In any case, you'll be relieved to know Dead Space 2 is in fact getting a PC release.

A new spore on PC, interesting, the first one was nice, but not like I was excepting.
Interesting.
NHL 11, yeesssssssss.
Cccccccccool
bf3 where -.-
I might be putting aside some euros for [b]Medal of Honor, Dead Space 2, Dragon Age (2) and Crysis 2[/b].
I hope they don't [i]frak[/i] things up like they did with Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twillight.
And yes, I watched too much Battlestar Galactica.
o Medal of Honor (Console, Handheld/Mobile, PC)
o Crysis 2 (Console, PC)
o Dead Space 2 (Console, Handheld/Mobile, PC)
o Bulletstorm (Console, PC)
Only things I'm interested in. Also Sims 3 for consoles? That could end badly.
Who cares, EA sucks
Is Dead Space 1 any good
[QUOTE=Dr Pepper;22034720]Is Dead Space 1 any good[/QUOTE]
It was decent, but not as good as I expected.
[QUOTE=Thundermanz;22030721]
Green Day: Rock Band (Console)
[/QUOTE]
:sigh:
I'll be getting them all. EA is my favourite Publisher ever.
No ME3 :( at least, not in the FY. I would die if it came out in 2012 :smithicide:
[QUOTE=Kabstract;22035520]No ME3 :( at least, not in the FY. I would die if it came out in 2012 :smithicide:[/QUOTE]
No, wait till 2012. I don't want it to be rushed. Let Bioware take their time and make the game properly.
[QUOTE=Temtimtom;22031983]And yes, I watched too much Battlestar Galactica.[/QUOTE]
That's impossible.
None of these games really inspire me to run out and buy them, maybe Medal of Honour if it gives me the same entertainment value that Spearhead did. Now that was a quality game.
Actually Dead Space was fucking sweet, keep my eye on number 2 as well.
[QUOTE=Kowalski;22030761]A new spore on PC, interesting, the first one was nice, but not like I was excepting.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, It was too childish, I was expecting detailed animal stages and evolution and certainly a 5 times more in depth civilizationstage and shit, not fluffy cuddly laying eggs and wussy cock fighting and extremely simple civilization stage, which is basically a mini-game.
EDIT: WAIT A MINUTE HERE, Sims three for consoles? SLAY THE INFIDELS!
No Battlefield 3? :frown:
[QUOTE=Amez;22036774]No Battlefield 3? :frown:[/QUOTE]
This is a good thing. That way DICE will have more time to work on it.
[QUOTE=HyperTails;22034824]It was decent, but not as good as I expected.[/QUOTE]
I liked it... it was refreshing to play a true survival horror game again. RE4 & RE5 really didn't do it for me in that department. Plus the atmosphere in Dead Space was amazing.
[QUOTE=TheMourge;22036791]This is a good thing. That way DICE will have more time to work on it.[/QUOTE]
Well yeah, I don't mind waiting for games. Better to wait a longer time for a more polished and generally better game.
[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;22035905]No, wait till 2012. I don't want it to be rushed. Let Bioware take their time and make the game properly.[/QUOTE]
Yeah I know, but they said late 2011 or early 2012.
I'm excited for Crysis 2 and Dead Space 2.

nfsw is a mmo-type of nfs taking place in most wanted and carbon.
No Mass Effect 3? :colbert:
Medal of Honor (Console, Handheld/Mobile, PC)
Crysis 2 (Console, PC)
Dead Space 2 (Console, Handheld/Mobile, PC)
Bulletstorm (Console, PC)
^ The titles I'm excited for.
Especially Dead Space 2, that game will be grand.
I don't even know why they're making a Green Day Rockband, when there are so many bands that are better and more loved.
