i'll wait for the price drop on deus ex.But I agree that the open world games give more bang for the buck.This doesn't rest well with console companies.When I bought fallout 3, I played for 18 months and only bought resident evil 5, and bioshock 2, before fallout new vegas.I don't care for mulitplayer games.They are annoying.when you play online with someone, the usually quit alot as soon as you show them new tricks,areas,etc.
I am looking forward to dead island due out the first tuesday of september.Looks to give the open world,mixed with hordes of zombies,craftable weapons,quests, up to four players.
Just hope in meets my expectations.And depending on how long this game takes.will get either skyrimm, or RAGE next. have a good one

While I would love to buy more games I try to limit myself, my essential list is:

Deus Ex: Human Revolution (already fully paid off and will arrive tomorrow}
Skyrim
Saints Row 3
Arkham City

I'll probably wait for the price to go down on Battlefield 3 and Dark Souls. Luckily I have a job now though, otherwise I'd only be able to get 1 or 2 games but certainly do feel the sting in my pocket.

Here's my purchase list.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution Augmented Edition
Gears of War 3 Epic Edition
Battlefield 3
Skyrim Collector's Edition
Halo Anniversary
Star Wars Kinect
Star Wars: The Old Republic Collector's Edition

I think that's all.
