[Ion Guru]

August:

Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle
Yakuza Kiwami

September:

Destiny 2
Cuphead

October:

Super Mario Odyssey
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus

Oh boy... gonna be an expensive few months. There are a few games I'm still deciding on, depending on how well they are received, but the above are pretty much guaranteed day one purchases from me.

Other games I'm interested in (but will likely wait for a sale):

Crackdown 3
Star Wars Battlefront II
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (if it even releases this year)
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
Forza Motorsport 7
Assassins Creed Origins

I do wish there were more multiplayer games that interested me this year, aside from Destiny 2. That's about the only reason Battlefront II is in consideration for a purchase.

Edit: Totally forgot about Need for Speed Payback. Looks like it might be similar to Burnout 3, so I'll be keeping my eye on that one too.

 

[Sora_N]

Yakuza Kiwami
Mario Odyssey
Xenoblade 2

 

[IrishNinja]

ive preordered Metroid Samus Returs, Yakuza Kiwami, Sonic Mania & LRG's Wonder Boy III, that's it. nothing else matters.

well i did get an EU SNES classic, Mario Odyssey will prolly wait till christmas though

 

[PooBone]

I guess just Star Wars Battlefront 2.

I plan to also get Wolfenstein 2 and Metroid Samus Returns but probably not day one. I'm just holding out hope that Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice gets announced for Xbox One. If it's not heard of by end of year I'll buy that one for PS4.

 

[Yazuka]

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
South Park Fractured but whole
Super Mario Odyssey
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
.hack//G.U. Last Recode

Are the games I'll be buying day one for the rest of the year.

 

[Pezking]

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
Yakuza Kiwami
Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana
Metroid: Samus Returns
Blue Reflection
Middle Earth: Shadow of War
South Park: The Fractured But Whole
Super Mario Odyssey
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Call of Duty: WWII
Star Wars: Battlefront II

 

[xerzewatt]

Yakuza Kiwami, Destiny 2, Divinity: OS 2, Wolfenstein 2. Maybe South Park and Dishonored depending on the workload.

 

[MLH]

Etrian Odyssey V without a doubt, easily my most anticipated game of the year, Dungeon Crawling at its best. Hope we get the FM-synth DLC with it.

I've also got Culdcept Revolt on preorder, excited for that.

Finally Monster Hunter Stories, not sure about this one. It's on preorder, it looks good, but from what I've seen it reminds me more of some boring level-5 RPG. I want to be completely sold on it, but it appears Nintendo & Capcom don't really care anymore... I've seen very little online advertising for it.

 

[Zioman]

August:

Yakuza Kiwami (PS4)

September:

nah

October:

Middle-earth: Shadow of War (PC, PS4, Xbox One)
Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus

November:

Star Wars: Battlefront 2 (PC, PS4, Xbox One)

 

[Angst]

Op has Gran Turismo Sport as (PC, PS4). Should be PS4 only of course.

 

[MomoQca]

I'm 100% getting Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

I'm also interested in Super Mario Odyssey, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, ARMS, etc. Mainly the Switch titles.. But I may wait and list them under my Christmas wish list.

 

[ASaiyan]

Day 1, No Questions Asked:
-Yakuza Kiwami
-Metroid: Samus Returns
-SNES Classic (if I can get one, lol)
-Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga DX
-Super Mario Odyssey
-Hollow Knight Switch (assuming it actually drops this year)
-Fire Emblem Warriors

Other games I might buy at launch if the reviews are good:
-Sonic Mania
-Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
-Pokken Tournament DX
-FIFA 18 Switch
-Wolfenstein II
-Battlefront II

This on top of all the games I've already bought this year. 2017 is gonna go down in history next to '98 and '07. It's too much, man.

Expect this list to double with impulse purchases, but for now these are the sure bets for me.

 

[FN-2187]

Forza 7
Battlefront 2

Maybe COD: WW2 if reviews are good

 

[Kalamoj]

Destiny 2
SNES Mini
Undertale PS4

All of them preordered.

GTS was on the list, but I'll wait and see how it turns out. Not digging the online focus.

 

[KageMaru]

Uncharted The Lost Legacy
Wolfenstein 2
Hellblade
Cuphead
Crackdown 3
Forza 7
Sonic Mania
Sonic forces

I may be missing some games but I can't think of any at the moment.

 

[Velikost]

Mario Odyssey
CoD: WW2
Cuphead

and Wolfenstein II is highly likely

 

[Leflus]

Sonic Mania.

Going for impulse buys for my other purchases, so nothing is set in stone yet.

 

[Snoopycat]

Cuphead. Everybody's Golf. That's probably all I'll buy this year because looking at the release calendar there's literally nothing I can see except bland, rehashed sequels. There's a demo on the PSN store for a tactical stealth ninja game, I forget what it's called but I'll probably buy that as well because it plays well and at least it offers something different.

 

[ScaryShark]

August

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
Everybody's Golf
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle

September

Destiny 2
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider
Cuphead
Star Fox 2

October

Forza Motorsport 7
Middle-earth: Shadow of War
The Evil Within 2
South Park: The Fractured but Whole
Assassin's Creed: Origins
Super Mario Odyssey
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus

November

Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds
Need for Speed Payback
Star Wars Battlefront II

October is just stupid.

 

[Psychoward]

0 partially because of my wallet, partially because of my pc not being great and partially because a lot of the games don't interest me

If I had unlimited funds I'd be most excited for The Evil Within 2, Wolfenstein II and Divinity: Original Sin 2 (if I was confident I could run it).

Matterfall seems neat too and it's Housemarque so that's always a good sign. Battlefront 2 could be good or it could be awful so I'm remaining skeptical, and I'd be interested in the Dishonored 2 DLC if I had the base game yet. And yeah, Mario + Rabbids and Super Mario Odyssey would be great if I had a switch.

 

[GasProblem]

CoD WW2 and Horizon Frozen Wilds. I'll probably buy something in a sale as well.

 

[Pilgrimzero]

Horizon DLC. That's it.

I'm interested in other stuff but "must have", that's it.

 

[Shoori]

Danganronpa V3, NBA 2k18 and Super Mario Odyssey for me

 

[Saganator]

I've mostly stopped buying games day one, but I am going to try super hard to get a SNES Classic ASAP.

 

[TheGreyHulk]

Just Super Mario Odyssey and CoD WW2 since it's been a long time since I've played CoD. Never liked the future settings

 

[tootie923]

Uncharted: LL
Destiny 2

Maybe Super Mario Odyssey, but I'm not dying to play a Mario platformer like I did when I was younger. I think The Evil Within 2 is going to have the same fast price drop as #1 did in 2014 around Black Friday.

 

[gutter_trash]

Sonic Mania (Triple Dipping: PS4, SW, PC)
Destiny 2 (digitally pre-ordered)
Super Mario Odyssey (depending on its size will determine if digital or physical purchase)

 

[Patrick Bateman]

Super Mario Odyssey
Yakuza: Kiwami


I'm not sure about the new Metroid, yet.

 

[Heart of Black]

Already bought Fire Pro Wrestling World...

River City Rival Showdown if it comes out this year.

 

[Hamster Plugin]

Wolfenstein 2 and Assassin's Creed Origins. However, these two games have the problem of coming out on the same day.

Because I'll be getting Wolfenstein 2 on PC and Asscreed on PS4, I'll be going day-1 on Wolfenstein. PS4 digital games are overpriced in Europe and I have to wait for a sale. Ubisoft has been doing really fast sales lately (2-4 weeks from release) so AC should be on an EU PSN sale quickly.

 

[TaterTots]

MvCI and Cuphead for certain. Don't care about anything else. I must be getting old.

 

[Fancy Clown]

Uncharted, Evil Within 2, and Wolfenstein 2

 

[Dalius]

Mario Odyssey and Cuphead for me. I've been waiting for Cuphead and a Mario game in the sandbox style for a while now so they are day one buys for me.

I need to start working on my backlog again so hopefully I can manage to keep my purchases for the rest of the year to those two (although Destiny 2 on PC may be a good podcast game like the first one was...).

 

[Vire]

Destiny 2
Mario Odyssey

The rest can wait till discount. Nothing I'm absolutely dying to play.

 

[Vire]

August

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
Everybody's Golf
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle

September

Destiny 2
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider
Cuphead
Star Fox 2

October

Forza Motorsport 7
Middle-earth: Shadow of War
The Evil Within 2
South Park: The Fractured but Whole
Assassin's Creed: Origins
Super Mario Odyssey
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus

November

Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds
Need for Speed Payback
Star Wars Battlefront II

October is just stupid.

Sorry for the DP.

But why though?... will you realistically have time to even play all these games on day one?

 

[Azzanadra]

Man I keep forgetting Uncharted DLC is so soon... I am so tempted to buy that day one but we'l see. The Evil Within 2 I am getting 100% day one.

 

[Beegeous]

Destiny 2
SNES Mini
Mario Odyssey

 

[Professional Enthusiast]

Destiny 2 and Mario Odyssey. Everything else can wait for steam and black friday sales.

 

[Dartastic]

Hrm. In order:

Sonic Mania
Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle
Destiny 2
Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite
Fifa 18 (Sorry PES, even though your beta was super incredible I just... I just love The Journey)
Mario Odyssey
Assassins Creed: Origins
Wolfenstein: New Colossus
Star Wars Battlefront 2
Rime (Switch version)

 

[JimiNutz]

I only really buy online MP heavy games on day one but I'm not really interested in any of them this year.

Maybe Battlefront 2 if it turns out really good but I think I may even skip that this year and just try and catch up on the backlog (and continue playing Overwatch).

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

Mario, Metroid, Pokemon.

 

[Son Of Sparda]

Yakuza Kiwami (already pre-ordered)
Wolfenstein II
Dragon's Dogma PS4 (maybe)

 

[DustyVonEric]

Probably Uncharted DLC
SW Battlefront 2

And Horizon Zero Dawn DLC if that makes it this year


Beyond 2017, it's easily God of War and Spider-Man.

 

[Megatron]

Mario Odyssy
Matroid 3ds
Destiny 2
Uncharted Lost Legacy

Probably Mario and Luigi Superstar saga as well.

 

[Dantrist]

Danganronpa V3 is the only game for the rest of the year that's a must buy for me day one.

Same, only one I can't wait for!

 

[jacobeid]

-Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
-Yakuza: Kiwami
-Mario x Rabbids Kingdom Battle
-Dishonored: Death of the Outsider
-Wolfenstein: The New Colossus
-Super Mario Odyssey

I think Cuphead and South Park will have to wait a bit given the busy schedule.

 

[TwiztidElf]

Mario and Rabbids
Mario Odyssey
Horizon Frozen Wilds
Starcraft remastered
Cuphead

 

[Nuke Soda]

Wolfenstein
Possibly The Evil Within 2, assuming they show us some gameplay other than a 1 minute video.
