Ever wanted a game so bad?

Post » Sun Jul 03, 2011 10:07 am

The last game I got this hyped up about was GTA IV. Good game, but nowhere near as awesome as it's two predecessors.

You are reading my mind.

I wanted GTA Vice City more than Skyrim but that's most likely due to me being a kiddo back then and the only other game I had was Tony Hawk, now I've got a sht ton of games to keep me occupied while I'm waiting.

The last time I was this excited was for Majora's mask...... and the wind waker (despite the naff graphics)

Edit:
and RDR..... how did I forget that?

I am completely desperate for this game. The problem is, at the moment I have literally NOTHING to do, and I quickly lose interest in all the games I have. The only game now that will satisfy me is Skyrim, and we have to wait 5 long months for it to come out...

I learned not to overhype upcoming games too much. You usually end up disappointed with the game itself when it fails to deliver on your overhyped expectations. I have learned I enjoy games much more now, by keeping low expectations and then being pleasantly surprised... .sometimes.

It's the first time I wait for a game to release. I'm hyped about Skyrim even if I come on the forums 2-3 times a day. I come because I want to see if the Fan Interview is posted yet.

Last time I rember being hyped for a game at all was when I was a kid and had little experience with computer games anyway.

But then again, I only got hyped because I wished it for christmas, and it was christmas morning, and I knew I was gonna get it.

So that's a No, I have never wanted a game this bad, so long before it's release.

I was pretty hyped for New Vegas... Until I played it. As long as this game isn't the disappointment New Vegas is, I will be happy.

I'm pretty apathetic so I generally don't care about games that much, even the ones I'd like to play. I was pretty excited when I got my hands on Oblivion for the first time, but I didn't read gaming news back then so I didn't even know they were making it and I never had a chance to get hyped up about it. Skyrim's the first game I've cared about enough to pre-order ... or frequent a forum, for that matter. I will be buying the 5th Anniversary Edition of Oblivion too, oh yes I will. :D

Dead Island and Fallout: New Vegas are/have pretty much "omy[censored]inggoshImusthavethesegames!!!"
Skyrim?
No.
I want it.
I want it lots.
But it's not something I'm going to whine about if it gets canceled.

Let me say this: I have followed many games since Oblivion, and have been very disappointed by many of them. I just never felt satisfied by other games out there as much as by the Elder Scrolls.

This being said, I think I can say that I am looking forward to Skyrim more than any other game after Oblivion. And I think it's practically impossible for Skyrim to become a disappointment.

Let me give you two examples of games that disappointed me.

Mass Effect, I played and I was like at the end, 'This it it! This is what I wasted $60 on.' I was looking forward to exploring other planets, and they ended up being uninteresting and deserted of anything other than hostile lifeforms! I mean, where was the old Star Trek saying, 'To Seek Out New Life and Advanced Civilizations, To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before'. Yes, I know my Star Trek quote is a little bit off.

Then, there was Fable 2. I was expecting huge open areas to explore. Except for a few areas (which felt too small for my liking), most of the areas just felt too closed off to make interesting exploration.

Then, let's talk about a more recent disappointment, Two Worlds 2. I enjoyed the first one. But, in Two Worlds 2, you had two things that I didn't like: The limited exploration to the continent you were on at the beginning of the game AND the fact that most all dungeons were closed off/locked without the proper quest. It just kind of killed the immersion for me, you know.

Compared to these disappointments, Skyrim will be a breath of fresh air.

I'm probably one of biggest Bethesda fan boys on this site and they could practically do no wrong in my eyes but i would absolutely lose my [censored] mind if this game was cancelled.

Yeah the media ( and not only gaming media) hyped it to death...I nearly wanted to buy a console when it came out (but didn't).

Oblivion was so impressive at E3 2005 and they changed too much finally...don't know what's about Skyrim though.

If they cancelled this, I would be forced to look forward to ME3, and then the anticipation would be more than if I had a dental appointment, but less than than if I was looking at the head of a decent pint of Beamish.
