Is there cat combat?
I loved my little deadly chows in Tokyo jungle.

Fuck I miss Tokyo Jungle, what a great fun quirky game. I really wish Sony would take more chances and bring that back, or at least sell it to someone that will make a new game with it. I remember the gameplay got bad at times, but the fun parts out weighed those bad parts.

This gen Sony dont care much about making first party Japanese games, those day are long gone now.

At least you can play it PS5, TJ is available on PS+ Premium.

Horizon is Worth playing but it's bad.
Sifu I don't care
Elden ring obviously
Quarry looks ok. Not interested.
Ninja turtles? Lol cmon.

Every year got these smaller games. If we count these in year like 2011 or 2013 crushes even more so

This is your problem

 

[OZ9000]

Like the title says, what games is everyone even looking forward to picking up day one this year?? .... Its looking rough. These 4 games are the only ones that got my attention but don't even know if I am getting them day one (already have the W3)

Last of Us Part 1 Remake
Callisto Protocol
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt next gen
GOW Ragnork is day one if that is even dropping this year

TLOU, Callisto Protocol and GOW Ragnarok would make 2022 the GOAT year for me.

What do you do in Stray?

stray is adventure platformer like inside , you play through the story while doing puzzles , some people like these type of games because it stimulates their creativity/imagination and ability to solve different problems

go play some more god of war 2018 or the last of us , that will make you happy

 

[ShaikhCroft]

The fact that a bunch of list look like this is gross to me.

There are better and more interesting games coming soon, but this is what you focus on?

No wonder gaming isn't getting anywhere.

You can't cry no innovation, while only focusing on these types of games?

Why do I have to play something that I don't want to? Is this where the gaming community is heading?

 

[yurinka]

It isn't rough at all at least outside MS 1st parties. The opposite, there have been and there will be a ton of great multiplatform, Sony exclusives and Nintendo exclusives.

The most recent one I got is TMNT Shredder's Revenge: one of the best beat'em ups in decades and probably the best TMNT game ever. Some of the ones I look forward the most for 2022 are GoWR, Bayonetta 3, Stray, DnF Duel and the new PS+ (to be released tonight/tomorrow in my country).

 

[RoadHazard]

There will always be Rocket League. Play it.

 

[BusierDonkey]

My backlog is sitting at well over 10,000 games.

I will likely be cremated and my remains tossed in a dumpster before I even play even 1/10th of the games I currently have in my various consoles, portable systems and on my PC. I fully welcome some dead space here and there to play them.

I tend to stick to my 1-year rule which means my 2022 won't arrive until 2023, but then there are a shit-ton of indies coming out this year that look fun, likely 300+ hours of Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Forza Horizon 5's first expansion which looks massive and a bunch of stuff coming in through Gamepass. I should have plenty to play regardless of how thick the release schedule looks.

Even in a slow year there's so many great games to play.

Wow .... why continue to buy all those games if you can't get through everything?

[Ðuelist]

All I need is GoW. Hopefully it comes out after my bonus so I can snag the new Sony QD-Oled as well.

 

[CitizenZ]

I cant ever relate to this comment, as its done every year. I have in demos alone the past week close to 40 hrs with one at 15 hrs and im still playing. AND Chernobylite just dropped some new free DLC, which I had no clue about.

Oh god this is disgusting
Thank god I have that 10 million games! Pack it up boys. We can close gaming until I die!

 

[Woopah]

Stuff needs to come out first this year NPD released a few days ago the results for last month and it was the lowest spending month since february 2020. Piscatella said the market needs more games. Sooo ...

May was a slow month, I don't think anyone would disagree there. But the months ahead are looking a lot better.

 

[BusierDonkey]

I should clarify things. I almost entirely stopped buying new games a few years ago. I still buy games that interest me like new racing games but for the most part I stick to the older stuff as I find I enjoy it more. That said, there's still plenty of new stuff I find enjoyable, even in a "bad" year. I only buy new games now if I plan on playing them immediately otherwise I skip them and will reconsider them a year later. The newest game I own is FH5 and before that was Panzer Dragoon Remake which I bought on-sale in late-2021. Before that was Doom Eternal in 2020.

I have this under the TV, the MegaSD has every Genesis and Sega CD game ever made on it, the NT Mini has every NES game ever made on it, the Everdrive64 has every N64 game ever made on it, the FXPakPro has every SNES game ever made on it and quite a few games that never released, the Saturn is a WIP but will have a MODE with every Saturn game on an SSD, the Dreamcast has a MODE with every Dreamcast game ever made on an SSD. The Xbone's external HDD has about 1000 installed games I've gotten through Games with Gold over the last decade or so. Missing is the PS1 that just got converted to HDMI with an XStation which replaced the never-used PS3. The WiiU isn't modded but there's a decent physical Wii/WiiU library in the house. There are over 10K games on the systems in this image alone.

This has over 2000 GB/GBA games on it as well. A fair bit are trash, but I've had fun finding diamonds in the rough.

Then there's my PC with multiple drives full of games I've been gifted from friends or bought during sales.

All these games I can have running at any time, on PC they're all available with a couple clicks.

 

[p_xavier]

I would never ever considere ROMs as part of a backlog. For me it's always a real purchase. Heck I wouldn't even consider gaming subscritions.

 

[zkorejo]

Elden Ring, eventually will play Horizon, GOW Ragnarok MAY still come out in 22.

Also secretly hyped for next gen Witcher 3, I have only finished it once when it came out so I think if it's impressive enough I will jump back into it and that's like months worth of gaming.

Also have a backlog. Still haven't officially finished Cyberpunk, GoT and Ratchet & Clank.

 

[Sosokrates]

2022 is

 

[daywarf]

MHR:SunBreak is coming! I can't wait to play it!

And I am curious about the Wuxia game "The Scroll Of Taiwu" which comes in Sep. The EA version released in 2018 then no update or news anymore. Now it's finished, at last.
I even thought those fucking developers had disappeared, with my money.
Now I'm fucking want to know what happened and what it will look like.

 

[Crayon]

Soon it'll be two years into next gen and nothing's next gen.

Fucking seriously. It's weird. I'm not crazy about it. I feel like I got swooped into an iphone upgrade model. By ps6 it's going to be all the same games running at different settings.

The ps5 has excessively fast io performance and plenty of everything else. I can see having almost no pure ps6 games.

 

[Putonahappyface]

Soon it'll be two years into next gen and nothing's next gen.

Yummy crossgen. I think we will have a minimum of two years left until the new consoles have fully flooded the market.

 

[Kataploom]

Requiem looks great and looking forward to it. Was hoping for mid-August though. September to December is stacked and packed for me while April through August has been empty. UGH.

Steel Rising on September 8th
Evil West on September 20th
A Plague Tale Requiem on October 18th
Gotham Knights on October 25th
The Callisto Protocol on December 2nd

If God of War Ragnarok and Avatar release in November, im going to have 7 games in a three months span. UGH.

 

[CamHostage]

It's another very strange year... Gamestop has zero titles featured for release on its Upcoming Games list for November, usually the busiest gaming month of the year...

https://www.gamestop.com/collection/new-releases

(*Obviously, that's wrong, Pokemon is on Nov 18... but, not much else, when I look around. Maybe everything that was planning for this year knew to just stay the heck away from Starfield? We'll see if GoW Ragnarok ends up making that date..)
