What games are you getting in August?

August is really quiet for me; September is when it all kicks off. Badly want Lone Survivor for the Vita. Killer is Dead looks interesting, but I'm not convinced it'll actually be any good. I await reviews for that one. I'd like to pick up Rayman Legends, but Puppeteer is out not too long after, and I know which one I want to opt for to get my 2D platforming fix.

That's about it really. Huge Splinter Cell fan, but I passed on Blacklist the moment it was announced that Ironside had been stonewalled in favour of some new guy.
 
Splinter Cell is my August.

Though where the hell is my TLoU dlc?!!!
I sincerely hope they get the 2 mp drops before ps4 hits! Otherwise I'll have pissed $19.99 season pass away.

(These days it's hard enough to find time and resources to play one console....I'll be all in on ps4)
 
None, i really liked Saints Row 3, but its not a game i need to get day 1 at full price, i can wait a few months.

Its all about GTA5 hype
 
Dragon's Crown and Killer is Dead. The former because I love vanillaware and side scrolling beat em ups, the latter because suda. I mean seriously, suda da man
 
Splinter Cell Blacklist has been my only planned game for a while now..BUT ... The Bureau: Xcom Declassified has me really interested of late. May just pick that up if it has the kind of replay that Xcom Enemy Unknown does. Also...and I am a bit ashamed to say it... The Ultimate Madden with the Sunday Ticket offer has me tempted given I am a HUGE NFL fan. I don't care much for Madden but could be tempted to pick this up for my 360 if I can watch games on the Xbox.
 
Pikmin 3 for sure.

If I can find Ketsui, then that too for sure.

Hatsune Miku, Dragon's Crown, New Super Luigi U, and Killer is Dead are all maybes depending on how much self-control/common sense I can muster.

Spelunky
One Piece Musou 2
Divekick
Killer is Dead

will probably rent Dragon's Crown and Saints 4, and I still don't have a Wii U (maybe in September)
 
Splinter Cell! Can't come fast enough. It's one of those games that i care more about knowing whether it's actually good or not rather than really wanting to play it.
 
Probably just Ducktales

ToX was on my radar for the longest time, but I'm starting school in August, so I doubt I'll have anytime for it (and it probably won't be as good as ToV to be honest)

September, on the other hand, is going to be my biggest month of gaming this year
 
Probably just Saint's Row 4. I'm going to be holed up in a hotel room for a long weekend at the end of August while my family goes to Packers training camp, so I'll probably end up buying the PS3 version instead of the heavily preferred PC version so I can play it while I'm there.

Or I may just take GTA4 with me so I can finally finish that before 5 hits.
 
It's almost crazy that so many people will be getting Dragon's Crown. A year ago I was convinced I was the only person on Earth anticipating it. I love you, GAF. :)

For me:
Dragon's Crown (PS3)
Spelunky (Steam)
That's all for now, but I'm sure more stuff will pop up, especially surprise indie gems.

Rayman Legends for my Vita.

PS+ will take care of the rest, I haven't played Mafia 2 or NFS: MW yet.

Edit: I'd get Dragon's Crown, but it doesn't even have a release date for Europe yet AFAIK :(

Import it! I'm getting it from a Canadian site: 43€ artbook and shipping included. That's a better deal than buying it when it releases here!
 
Saints Row 4 is all I need. I'm going to play the hell out of that game. I still play SR3.

I'll definitely pick up The Wonderful 101 once I've bought a Wii U.
 
The Dishonored DLC and I'll rent Rayman Legends.

I'm considering DuckTales Remastered but I may just leave that for a Steam sale.
 
Just Blacklist and Killer is Dead for now. I'd get Pikmin 3 if I had a Wii U but it just ain't in the stars.

edit: I thought W101 was September 15, now I hear it's coming in august? Damn, Nintendo should have just waited on releasing the Wii U until this August it seems like. Would have been much more hype if there were two great launch games like that.
 
Pikmin 3 is the top priority, everything else will wait until I am done with it. I might buy SMTIV before the deal expires though. I'm trying my best to not buy a new game until I finish the one I'm playing.
 
Gonna grab JoJo and Dragon's Crown for PS3.

Maaayyybe Pikmin 3(I'll eventually get it but unsure if I want it in Aug).

Pick up Killer is Dead sometime down the line.
