Hyped about:
Metal Gear Solid: Rising
Forza Motorsport 4
Portal 2
Trine 2
Mario Kart 3DS

Mass Effect 3
Final Fantasy Versus XIII
Grand Theft Auto V
LA Noire

Interested in:
Batman: Arkham City

And I don't even own half of these systems. :lol My 360 weeps. My wallet? Not so much, not a jam packed year full of good games IMO. To me 2011 is looking to be one of the weaker years.
 
The "OMGOMGOMG" Titles:
- Mass Effect 3
- Uncharted 3
- Zelda: Skyward Sword
- The Last Guardian (if it actually comes out this year)

Others I'll probably check out:
- Batman: Arkham City
- Portal 2
- Dragon Age 2
- El Shaddai
- Mortal Kombat
- Outland
- Journey

Maaaaybe:
- Ni no Kuni
- Valkyria Chronicles 3
- Duke Nukem Forever
- Shadows of the Damned

Can´t choose between Portal 2 and The Witcher 2.

Portal 2 - because Portal is just pure brilliance, and The Witcher 2 because the The Witcher 1 puts Bioware to shame.

Is this even a possibility? I haven't heard anything.
Yes, yes it is. Gearbox dudes have implied the production of Borderlands 2 forever, and the chances of it happening are pretty much 99%. Actually, there is little doubt that it isn't already happening.

Sorry, I mean for 2011. Obvious with the success of the first game a sequel is very likely. I'm definitely looking forward to it. Your link is to a banned site btw.

Had the time so I decided to make a super big list.

What came out already?
Muchi Muchi Pork/Pink Sweets Dual Pack.
Bulletstorm
Tactics Orge

Most likely reasonable time frame purchases, Titles I do have intent to own, normally a shoe in for quality purchases.


PC

Portal 2
Trackmania II
Kingdom Under Fire II
Guild Wars II
DOTA 2.0
Diablo II
Red Orch II
Mount and Blade Fire and Ice
Battlefield 3


XBLA
Radiant Silvergun XBLA
Bangai O Spirits XBLA
Dust: An Elysian Tail

PS3
Tales of Graces F

360
Dark Souls

PSP
Persona II Innocent Sin
FFZero



Maybes, See More, Cheap Steam Sale a year down, etc. Basically swing anyway
. Titles that I think look interesting, but I need more info or maybe not a personal favorite, but something I'd have some fun with for a bit.

PC
Sky Legends
Firefall
Natural Selection II
Blackstar Chronicles
Elder Scrolls Skyrim
Brink
Serious Sam III
Dues Ex
Duke Nukem Forever
Kingdoms of Amalur
The Haunted
Cursed Cursader

PS3

Trico

And the final catagory would be Rental, passing interest, etc. Most of the console titles fall into here like LA Noire, Saints Row III, RFIV, Batman II, etc.

Like normal, all this is tentative. I'm not even going get a chance to play half the titles listed and most will be budget purchases several months after they come out.

A lot more than just these three, but these are easily the most wanted in my list. These are 100%, without a doubt, day one, no matter what.

Oh apologies, I'm not sure about the date, I guess it's just an assumption that it'll be out this year. Also, I didn't even know that site was banned, first time I've been on it.


AND SHIT I FORGOT TRACKMANIA 2.

portal 2 - valve's standard of game design is superb, the portal first person puzzle concept is wonderful and i'm very curious to see how they expand this into a full price game.
rayman origins - way too long since michel ancel has released a game. 2d platformers are a favourite genre of mine and christophe heral composing for the game just puts it over the edge.
human revolution - the deus ex model of rpg-shooter with meaningful player choice is a design that i find very interesting and this looks to pull it off successfully judging by previews. i also like the very gold world design.
journey - the game concept of pure exploration alone has me a flutter, it being from the makers of the lovely flower is encouraging and the videos and screens show off great presentation with a simple but stunning aesethic.

working on the basis that i reckon the last guardian isn't coming out this year.

A very loose top 5:

1. Deus Ex: Human Revolution
2. Dota 2
3. Portal 2
4. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
5. Batman: Arkham City

and further down the list a bit:

x. Bastion
y. Brink
z. InFamous 2

and most-looked-forward-to-trainwreck:

d. Duke Nukem Forever!

Mass Effect 3 will without a doubt jump into the top 3 after it's shown off for real at E3 this June.
 
Now that Dragon Quest VI is out, the only other game I am greatly anticipating is Uncharted 3. There is plenty of other games I am interested in, though.

Interesting to see Fantasy Life on more lists than I expected. What is it about the game that excites you guys? I've got my own reasons for anticipating it but I'm curious what others think. (also kinda curious how people could be deluded enough to think it will have a western release in 2011, heh).

There are only two games that I'm absolutely sure will come out in 2011 here that I'm feverishly anticipating: Persona 2 PSP and El Shaddai. I'm pessimistic about Layton 4, Ninokuni DS and Rhythm Heaven Wii, but those would be day ones too. Then there are like 15 other games I'll get after price drops, if history is any guide.

Disgaea 4
Skyrim
Ninja Gaiden 3
FF13 Versus if it comes out this year
maybe BF3 and Rage...I'll have to try them first

I wish Gears 3 was on either ps3 or pc :(

So how many 2011 games are getting delayed to Q1 2012? I can see publishers not wanting to have their games go up against the likes of Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3, Skyrim and Uncharted 3.

I don't think BF3 has even said they're coming out in 2011

Mass Effect 3 will get delayed, probably out in early 2012 with TOR in later 2012
Diablo 3 will get delayed... Again.

Everything else seems fine. But remember that we're in March just now so it's not like a lot of Holiday titles have been announced

Not all of these are confirmed to be 2011 releases, or even confirmed localizations, but here's my list anyway.

- Dark Souls
- Tales of Graces F
- Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D
- Zelda: Skyward Sword
- Kid Icarus: Uprising
- The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky
- Uncharted 3
- Final Fantasy IV: The Complete Collection
- Paper Mario 3DS
- Xenoblade
- Kirby Wii
- The Last Story
- Metal Gear Solid: Rising
- Final Fantasy Versus XIII
- Final Fantasy Type-0
- Final Fantasy XIII-2
- Star Fox 64 3D
- Kirby DS
- Ninja Gaiden III
- Fire Emblem: Heroes of Light and Shadow
- Castlevania 3DS (Not even a confirmed game, but one that's been heavily rumored for months)
 
The titles that I'm really excited about and will pick up... sometime this year (a few on Day 1, but most a few months later after they drop in price) are as follows:

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky
Patapon 3
Catherine
Team Ico Collection
The Last Guardian (if it makes it)
Tales of Graces F
LA Noire
Yakuza 4
Okabu
Child of Eden
Deathsmiles iOS
Skyward Sword

Then there are a few sequels which I'm interested in but need to play the original first:

Portal 2
The Witcher 2
Okamiden
Ar Tonelico 3

Finally, there are the games which haven't been announced for NA yet, but which will hopefully make it over this year:

Valkyria Chronicles III
Ninokuni
Atelier Totori
Persona 2: Innocent Sin PSP

That's a fair number of potentially awesome games this year. Hopefully my backlog will allow me to actually get to some of them.
