Getting for sure:

 

Possibly, depending on several factors:

Mass Effect 3 (will probably wait for the catchup thing with exp/dlc though)

Dungeon Siege 3 (to satisfy my curiosity)

The Witcher 2 (depending on how horrible the qte, minigames and twitch factor is. If they go all "cinematic", I'll drop it)

Dead Space 2 (need to dig out a lot more info on that one)

 

Might get myself the new Bloodbowl game next (although it already out).

Dungeon Siege 3 most likely.

 

The Witcher 2 most likely as well, though it'll depend a bit on... well, how good it seems when it comes out I suppose.

 

Probably Diablo 3 as well.

 

Those are the only ones (that are fairly sure to drop in 2011 anyways) I'm almost sure to get.

Well, just for the first couple months there are a couple big ones I plan on trying to get.

 

Two Worlds 2 - Got it pre-ordered and I have a gift card to cover the difference.

 

Dragon Age 2 - Probably will pre-order it soon enough.

 

TW Shogun 2 - Might be a day one purchase, depends on my schedule.

 

I'd put Dungeon Siege III on the list, but I question the relased date on it. We haven't seen much yet, so a March release seems a bit tough. Considering AP was delayed for a like a year, I'll wait and see.

The Witcher 2

Deus Ex: Human Revolution

 

Will buy:

Mass Effect 3 (if it is released)

Half-Life 2: Ep3 (if it is released)

Might buy, depending how they turn out:

Dragon Age 2

Diablo 3

Diablo3, because I must have it, even if it turns out I don't play it much....

 

Probably Dungeon Siege3.

Probably Grim Dawn, assuming they finish it in 2011, which I'm unsure about.

 

That's it for my known list. If I buy anything else it'll be on impulse or because I read on forums how awesome a game is/sounds like it might be a game I'd like.

not too much Dungeon Siege 3 here. I expected to see it in every single post :p

Deus Ex HR is on pre-order (yes, the augmented edition, I want the shiny art book and soundtrack..)

 

Mass Effect 3

I'm most likely to give SW The Old Republic a try..

 

Dragon Age 2 is pretty likely, just to get a hands on for what they do.

Homefront I'll keep an eye on, but undecided just at the moment.

 

What are the odds of Red Dead Redemption finally making it to the pc over this upcoming year?

Dungeon Siege 3 is one I'll wait and see on. Hasn't got me all excited just yet.

 

Apart from that, there isn't much that's hovering on my awareness.

Considering the developer's track record, I will steer clear unless proved otherwise.

 

That doesn't make any sense, they have a great track record. This year alone they released two of the best RPG's I've played in a long while.

...that are buggy and unpolished.

 

To each their own, I guess.

 

Yeah, but that doesn't mean they're not fun.

I came up with Crate 3.0 technology. 

Crate 4.0 - we shall just have to wait and see.

Bugs are a fairly individual issue. I didn't encounter anything major in AP or FO:NV. Polish is also pretty deep in the personal opinion realm, I mean neither game is what I would call ugly or clunky.

 

In my opinion, they were both fun and engaging, which is why I love them. I finished both, which speaks volumes about how engaging they are. I probably only finish about 10% of the games I buy. Usually I have fun with a game for awhile, but then I stopped being engaged and move on to something else. AP and FO:NV kept my full attention all the way through, so that makes them two of my top games.

 

I didn't finish NWN2, by the way, so it isn't just blind fanboyism.

Did I say anything of the sort?

 

This thread is about what games you are getting in 2011, all this is my personal preference, not the one universal truth.

Dungeon Siege 3, The Witcher 2, Diablo 3 and Deus Ex 3 are my personal must buys. (Yeah, they're all sequels, huh.) Age of Decadence and Dead State are on there if they make it out the conveyor belt.

 

Elder Scrolls V - probably, depending on info.

 

Dragon Age II and Shogun:TW2 probably on the bargain bin list. I just read an interview about how the Shogun AI is "too good" and had to be scaled down - hey, guys, you said the exact same thing about an earlier release in the franchise and guess what, it was too stupid to run in a straight line.
