What Has You Excited?

[Mongooseman]

What 2006 and '07 games are you the most pumped for? Mine are:

Zelda: Twilight Princess
This is an obvious one to most. I've been patiently waiting for this game for over two years now, and the wait is almost over. I have high hopes for TP, and I think that Nintendo will deliver.

Super Mario Galaxy
It's a Mario platformer. That would usually be enough, but I feel like saying more. The way that the Wiimote was used in so many different ways during E3, yet was still able to keep traditional gameplay intact, amazed me.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
I wasn't a big fan of the previous two games in the trilogy, but I thought that Hunters was awesome. If it wasn't for the use of the Wiimote, I would probably have zero interest in this game, but after watching some videos and reading various impressions, I find myself wanting it.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
We don't know much about this game yet, but the pure awesomeness of its predecessors got me hyped even before it was officially announced. I was never able to play with friends often, so the prospect of online play astounds me.

Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
It's the first Zelda on the DS, and it's cel-shaded. I don't know much else, but those two factors are enough to get me excited.

Pokémon Diamond/Pearl
I really haven't been a Pokémon fan since Gold and Silver, but Diamond and Pearl have revived my interest in the series. The return of the day-night cycle is welcome, and the online battles and trading would've given me a stroke had I heard about them six years ago.

Spore
So much control. The ability to build your own animals, houses, vehicles, and even planets is amazing. I'm probably going to spend hundreds of hours just messing around with Spore.

Half-Life 2: Episode 2/Portal/Team Fortress 2
Half-Life 2 is my favorite FPS game overall, and Team Fortress is my favorite multiplayer FPS. The concept of Portal just looks awesome. Since they're all wrapped up in one package, I'm triply hyped about this collection.

All of the above plus Grand Theft Auto 4 and Splinter Cell 5

[JordAnime]

Twilight Princess, Super Mario Galaxy, Phantom Hour Glass, Metroid Prime 3, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Half-Life 2, Sonic and the Secret of the Rings, whatever Tales game comes out on Wii, Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles, and WoW: The Burning Crusade!

Yay!

[Loki]

World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade
SSB: Brawl
Mortal Kombat: Armageddon on the Wii
Marvel Ultimate Alliance

That's actually pretty much it... although Pokemon Diamond/Pearl have my attention, too.

[Twilight Link]

All of the above plus Grand Theft Auto 4 and Splinter Cell 5

Uhm, I'm a bit in the dark here, is there any confirmation that there'll be a new GTA? And any info at all on what space in time will it be about?

Anyway, on topic: Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Super Mario Galaxies, Super Smash Brothers Brawl most of all atm.

that's pretty much all we have on it. Also Rockstar said it would be released for xbox 360 first instead of ps3

[Geneaux486]

At the very top of my list is Burning Crusades.
The Nintendo Wii.  I've been considering freezing myself so that I could wake up on the day the Wii comes out, actually.
Gamewise it's Mario Galaxy, Wario Ware for the Wii, and Smash Brothers Brawl.
360 wise I'm looking foward to Halo 3, and that's about it.

Everything above except half-life and warcraft

[YautjaElder]

-The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii/GCN)

-Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (Wii)

-Red Steel (Wii)

There are probably more but those are the ones that popped up right now.

[Chaos the Hedgehog]

Here's what I'm looking forward to:

-Twilight Princes for Wii (Of course.)

-Metroid Prime 3 (Metroid Prime 1 replaced Ocarina of Time as my favorite game of all time, so I can't wait for this.)

-Mario Galaxy (I've never been a huge Mario fan, but this looks great. I'll probably pick it up eventually.)

-Super Smash Bros. Brawl (It looks a little similar to Melee, and I wish it implemented remote, but the online is worth it alone.)

-Halo 3 (I first played Halo 1 about a month before Halo 2's release, and I'm now a huge fan of the series. This is gonna rock.)

-Phantom Hourglass (Classic 2D-esque Zelda with an innovative twist? Sweet.)

-Sonic the Hedgehog (The 360/PS3 one. Assuming it doesn't suck, which it might considering recent 3D Sonic games, I'll probably pick it up later on as I have no 360.)

-Sonic and the Secret of the Rings (This game may well redeem Sonic; it's a very different spin on 3D Sonic that is actually closer to the classic games.)

I might have forgotten something, but that's all I can think of right now.

Edit: Oh yeah, forgot Pokémon Diamond/Pearl. I skipped Ruby and Sapphire, but I'm starting to get back into Pokémon again. Can't wait for the online play, too.

[COLOR="Purple"]Let's see:

GameCube:
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Wii:
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (forgive the name twice)
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Smash Bro. Brawl
Sonic and the Secret of the Rings

DS/GBA:
Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
Pokemon: Pearl/Diamond
Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis port

I also hope my cousin could get the PS3 so I could play the Sonic game.

Lately, the Sonic games have been sucky, although I don't mind Sonic Adventure DX and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle for the GameCube.

Sonic Heroes was too short and Shadow the Hedgehog, don't get me started. I hope these two Sonic games make me excited about the franchise again.

Thanks! And I'm glad I bought the 360 then, a fine game will come out for it. :D

[Princess Ruto]

I'd Say:

Zelda Twilight Princess
and
Super Smash Bros Brawl.

[Zelinxia]

[COLOR="Purple"]I never knew until recently that the series is called "The Legend of Zelda", I always thought it was "Legend of Zelda". Which one is correct?

Also I think I might be interested in Rayman: Raving Rabbids. I need something hilarious to add to the Wii if I ever get one.[/COLOR]

[PsychoMe]

Red Steel looks very interesting, don't actually know how good the sword fighting will be, but if they do it right, it could be great.

We will be hearing more information on it this summer, something about the future.

I'm looking foward to spore, the whole concept seems compel me foward. Hopefully this game isn't a lackluster title full of bugs and unfulfilled interaction.

[Random]

I'm currently looking forward to Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, and Phoenix Wright 2. That's it.

[TheHylianLoach]

I'm really looking forward to Zelda TP for the GameCube, I really can't wait for that. I also can't wait for Super Smash Bros. Brawl, that game is looking awesome.

Lair and Resistance: Fall of man looks cool too, though I doubt I'll be able to get a PS3 this winter...
