20 games to look forward to in 2010
While 2009 is drawing to an end, and with all the great AAA titles only weeks away, keep in mind that 2010 is going to see more top-notch titles released than the last few years. Here are 20 games that should/will make an impact next year, and while a lot more games are coming out, we obviously couldn’t include them all — our list grew from ten games to twenty games simply because even we were surprised how many title are lined up for 2010. Here’s our 20 games for 2010, in no particular order.
Postal 3 (PC, Xbox 360, PS3, Running With Scissors, Q2, 2010)
The original Postal was both hailed and damned for its controversial content, and the sequel, Postal 2 only made it better (or worse, if you’re a politician looking for some media attention). Postal 3 will expand on the sandbox style gameplay, and will even feature director Uwe Boll (who made the 2008 Postal movie) in a cameo role.
APB (PC, Xbox 360, March 2010)
After developing Crackdown for the Xbox 360, which has since become a cult classic on the console, Realtime Worlds shifted all their manpower to APB (All Points Bulletin), a revolutionary MMO set in a huge city where players battle each other as either law enforcement agents, or criminals. A kind of GTA online, as creator David Jones (the man behind GTA) is noted saying APB is “the bastard child of everything we’ve been striving towards over the 15-20 years”.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360, March 2, 2010)
Battlefield: Bad Company almost managed to perfect something no other FPS had done before: creating a fully destructible battlefield, where walls would no longer provide infinite cover — one tank shell and you better be looking to hide somewhere else. Coupled with a single player campaign and a solid multiplayer, Bad Company has been one of the most played FPS on the Xbox 360 and PS3. Bad Company 2 will bring “destruction 2.0″, taking destruction to a whole new level, this time, entire buildings and towns can be leveled to the ground.
Heavy Rain (PS3, February 2010)
Heavy Rain has been highly anticipated ever since it was first showcased at E3 2006 for the PlayStation 3, the film-noir, thriller-styled game will feature an intertwined storyline, with four playable characters, all looking for a serial killed going under the name “The Origami Killer”.
Halo Reach (Xbox 360, Q4 2010)
The next chapter in the Halo series and Master Chief’s battle against the Covenant was unveiled at E3 2009, without any further details other than the game would be the last Halo game to be developed by Bungie. Owners of Halo 3: ODST will have a chance to check out the game’s multiplayer beta in the middle of 2010, by then we should have more details on Reach.
Red Steel 2 (Wii, February 16, 2010)
The original Red Steel was the very first Wii game that was revealed, and rode a wave of anticipation until its release — as a Wii launch title — where it showed a flawed control scheme, dated visuals and uninspiring gameplay. Red Steel 2 is said to correct all those issues, and will require (and be bundled with) the Wii Motion Plus accessory, giving it a true 1:1 control input, paving the way for some great sword fights. We sure hope so.
Crysis 2 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360, Q4 2010)
The original Crysis is still bringing even the most powerful PCs to their knees, and is still hailed as the best looking game available, at least if a tropical island is what you crave. Crysis 2 continues the story where the original left off, and will use the new CryEngine 3, creating an even more immersive world. There aren’t many details of the game yet, but one thing is for sure: start saving for a new PC rig.
BioShock 2 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360, February 9, 2010)
BioShock took the gaming community with storm in 2007, offering an amazing look at the steampunk/retro-futuristic world of Rapture, coupled with a story similar to Half Life, and in BioShock 2 — which takes place ten years after BioShock 1 — players can take control of the infamous Big Daddy, and will be able to step outside of the underwater city of Rapture. On top of that, BioShock 2 will include multiplayer as well, bringing a whole new dimension into the series.
Alan Wake (PC, Xbox 360, March 2010)
Alan Wake was originally a title known for its pretty visuals, actually, gorgeous visuals, but it soon became apparent that the game had much more to offer, as it showcased the first gameplay bits at E3 2009. It’s a psychological thriller, and draws inspiration from Twin Peaks and countless Stephen King novels, and is one of the most anticipated original games of 2010.
STALKER: Call Of Pripyat (PC, February 2010)
STALKER, and its expansion pack, was a promising action RPG set in a post-apocalyptic world of Chernobyl, but both games were hammered by technical issues and a merciless difficulty. Call of Pripyat is set to correct those issues, and is set to become a more accessible game for both action and RPG fans. On top of that, the game will utilize new DirectX 11 technologies, offering an even more grittier-looking Chernobyl than before.
Crackdown 2 (Xbox 360, March 2010)
Crackdown was one of the sleeper hits on the Xbox 360, where some gamers eagerly purchased the game only for the bundled-in Halo 3 beta. They soon found out that Crackdown was a viable GTA contender, with its own unique style and gameplay. Crackdown 2 was revealed at E3 2009, and is set to expand on gameplay and destruction of Pacific City, complete with a new visual overhaul.
Deus Ex 3 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360, Q4 2010)
Deus Ex and Deus Ex 2 have pretty much solidified their cult status among gamers, and especially, fans of dystopian cyberpunk. Deus Ex 3 will take place in 2027, 25 years before Deus Ex, so its views on a cyberpunk culture might dwindle a bit, but we’ll see — developer Eidos Montreal has yet to release any screenshots or videos of the game.
Max Payne 3 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360, March 2010)
The original Max Payne and May Payne 2 were hallmarks of noir storytelling in vidoegames, and when the new look and feel of Max Payne 3 was announced — with a new, bald Max — taking place in Brazil, loyal fans to the series got worried. After all, what’s Max Payne without a gritty New York City, rain, and lots of voice over acting? It’s even got a new developer, and the original writers are not on board. Lots of things can go wrong, but new developer Rockstar Vancouver seems to be on top of things, both story and gameplay wise.
God Of War 3 (PS3, March 2010)
God Of War has been one of the most successful franchises on the PlayStation 2, and it was never a secret that Sony was bringing the third game in the series on the PS3. If screenshots and gameplay videos are anything to judge the final product by, PS3 owners have something very special waiting for them next year, as God of War 3 is looking to be the biggest PS3 release of the year, second only to Gran Turismo 5, perhaps.
Gran Turismo 5 (PS3, Q2 2010)
Arguably the best racing sim franchise in history, Gran Turismo 5 will flex its muscles in beautiful high def for the first time, and it’s getting increasingly difficult to differentiate GT5 screenshots from real life photos of the cars. Compared to arch rival Forza 3, GT5 will have over twice the amount of cars (950 vs 450 in Forza 3) and more racing tracks as well. In addition, GT5 will include both NASCAR and World Rally Championship racing options.
Supreme Commander 2 (PC, Xbox 360, Q3 2010)
Supreme Commander, the spiritual successor for one of the greatest RTS games ever, Total Annihilation, revolutionized the way the battlefield was viewed, with a huge map that could be zoomed in and out to any point, effortlessly. That feature alone took gameplay and multitasking to a whole new level, and the game even had a proper support of multi-monitor setups. Supreme Commander 2 was unveiled during E3 2009, and takes place 25 years after the ending of SupCom: Forged Alliance.
Mass Effect 2 (PC, Xbox 360, January 26, 2010)
One of the many games delayed from late-2009 to early-2010 due to the clogging of several AAA titles this year, Mass Effect 2 continues the story from Mass Effect, this time, it’s a lot darker, according to the developers at BioWare. The game features an updated combat system, improved AI and more detailed characters and animations.
Army Of Two: The 40th Day (PS3, PSP, Xbox 360, January 10, 2010)
While the premise for a great co-op game was laid out in Army Of Two, poor execution and AI crippled the gameplay. The sequel, like all sequels should, will try and make up for those shortcomings. The 40th Day will feature refined controls, the ability to use human shields and to fake a surrender in order to outflank the enemy (meaning you better trust your teammate).
MAG (PS3, January 25, 2010)
MAG (short for Massive Action Game) is trying something no other FPS multiplayer game has been able to pull off before: massive 256 tribes and matches. It’ll feature 128 players per teams, divided into 8-player squads, 4 squads into a platoon, and 4 platoons into a company (8*4*4=128, see?). With 256 players on the map, MAG is set to deliver some of the most intense and frantic combat yet, and will offer detailed stats and rankings, where higher ranked players will be able to command the battle and give orders to individual squads and platoons.
Rage (PC, PS3, Xbox 360 & OS X, Q4, 2010)
Id Software’s first original game in decades, Rage is a fusion between a first person shooter and a racing game set in a post-apocalyptic Mad Max styled world. It’s built on the brand new ID Tech 5 engine, and will ship on 3 DVDs for the Xbox 360 and PC versions, while the PS3 edition will ship on one Blu-ray disc. Id Software legend and Rage developer John Carmack revealed that the game takes up a whopping 1 TB in space when not compressed. 3 DVDs don’t seem that much of a big deal now.
Honorable mentions: LA Noire, Fable 3, Far Cry 3, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Ghost Recon 4, Guild Wars 2, Command & Conquer 4, Thief 4, Dead Rising 2 and Just Cause 2.
October 16th, 2009 at 4:25 pm
Umm… starcraft 2? Diablo 3?
October 16th, 2009 at 4:29 pm
StarCraft 2 and Diablo 3 aren’t confirmed for 2010
October 16th, 2009 at 5:19 pm
Mario Galaxy 2? Metroid Other M?
October 16th, 2009 at 5:22 pm
Wow, incredibly biased. Nothing but lackluster shooters and gritty shit. Someone at Digitalbattle must really hate Nintendo or something, because if I remember correctly, the following games are coming in 2010: Super Mario Galaxy 2, Metroid: Other M, New Legend of Zelda for the Wii, Tatsunoko v. Capcom, Monster Hunter Tri.
October 16th, 2009 at 5:51 pm
We’ve only included games that are confirmed for 2010, we can’t speculate and include stuff like Zelda and Metroid — those games aren’t announced for 2010.
October 16th, 2009 at 9:46 pm
Who the fuck cares about Monster Hunter?
October 16th, 2009 at 9:50 pm
Last Guardian doesn’t deserve a spot on this list, but Postal 3 does??? This list is a POS.
October 16th, 2009 at 9:52 pm
Dead Rising 2
October 16th, 2009 at 10:03 pm
I’m hoping to see some HL2EP3 next year myself.
October 16th, 2009 at 10:05 pm
Hmmm… Final Fantasy XIII? The North American release date is April 2010. Japan release is December 17, 2009. I agree these games seem overly bias toward “battle” categories (thus the domain name). But FFXIII’s battle system is in the trailers and it looks amazing. Waiting 4 years for the next FF installment seems like something a lot of people will “look forward to”. It ranks above Gran Turismo, GTA, and Zelda in all time best sellers.
October 16th, 2009 at 10:10 pm
Red Dead Redemption?
October 16th, 2009 at 10:17 pm
Yeah, how dare you guys make a list of 20 games that doesn’t match the list every visitor has in her head? Where’s Build-A-Bear Workshop: Welcome to Hugsville? Jesus.
Thanks for bringing Postal 3 to my attention. I don’t watch that Spike TV channel much, so there’s a good chance I would have missed it entirely. Can you piss on people in this one? I hope the game engine has advanced enough to allow for the messy complexities involved with projectile defecation.
October 16th, 2009 at 10:59 pm
M.A.G. is actually a really decent game, and so far its meeting up to it’s hype(i’ve been beta testing the game since july), the battles are over the top, the frantic gameplay is definitely an added factor to the missions, the way the game has been designed actually leads to good comradery between teammates, just knowing that every action that’s being done in the game has been done by a player with no npc’s is an incredible feel and reminds you of just how large the battle is, while reminding you that every small battle leads to a greater victory in the end, i highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys war games, this game is one to get on 01/26/2010
October 16th, 2009 at 11:12 pm
Looking like another good year for brown!
October 16th, 2009 at 11:19 pm
Final Fantasy?
October 16th, 2009 at 11:31 pm
yeah looks like a bunch of sequels, but hells yeah on crysis 2, and kudos to you, Dan, about HL2EP3.
Also, Milksteak, great name.
October 16th, 2009 at 11:43 pm
How about Dust 514 ?=)

While 2009 is lining up AAA titles, 2010 looks to be the biggest gaming year in a long time….
October 16th, 2009 at 11:52 pm
StarCraft2 you foolish person
October 16th, 2009 at 11:53 pm
StarCraft2 is confirmed for Q1 2010. What kind of a half baked list is this?!
October 17th, 2009 at 12:13 am
No where on this list is the biggest game launch of the console generation. Final Fantasy 13. Of course since this is an all FPS based list I cans ee why you wouldn’t want to mention FF13. To bad its world wide sale will beat almost every game you have listed.
October 17th, 2009 at 12:13 am

Oh and yes it is confirmed for a 2010 release date.
October 17th, 2009 at 12:57 am
What, no No More Heroes 2?
October 17th, 2009 at 12:58 am
haha, I doubt ANYONE could get “all of em”.
As for Starcraft 2, well, try 2012 guys, you know how Blizzard roles. LMAO.
They should do quarter decades instead of quarter years in THEIR projections. I wonder if SC2 will have all 3 at once to buy? Sure hope they have conquerable territory like Planetarion. If it’s a pretties SC1 I’ll be dissappointed (but they’ll get my money in ANY case…hahaha).
Love to see more games working/ported for Linux systems. Can’t they just reverse engineer Direct X for Linux or somethin?
October 17th, 2009 at 3:12 am
I’m not a fan of digitalbattle.com (came here via Google Alerts), but the amount of people bitching about this list in the comments made me post this.
People, this is someone’s site = it contains SUBJECTIVE opinions. If your beloved future release didn’t make the list of 20, it’s because the authors of this site weren’t interested in it, most likely.
If you actually READ the intro, you can see the following:
“Here are 20 games that should/will make an impact next year, and while a lot more games are coming out, we obviously couldn’t include them all — our list grew from ten games to twenty games simply because even we were surprised how many title are lined up for 2010. Here’s our 20 games for 2010, in no particular order.”
Get a life
.
October 17th, 2009 at 3:32 am
I think the reason why there’s only one Wii title on this list is simply because the Wii sucks balls. How are there still people that don’t understand this?
October 17th, 2009 at 4:29 am
HEY!
LET’S PLAY FIND THE NEW IP!
Oh…
Ooh…
Oooohh…
THERE IT IS!!!!
October 17th, 2009 at 5:35 am
What?No More Heroes 2 doesn’t deserve a spot, or at least an honorable mention? One of, if not the only wii game that actually tries to be good!
I know most people hate the wii, but have some mercy!
October 17th, 2009 at 6:26 am
Starcraft 2 is missing… and yes it was confirmed to be out in 2010, they had pushed it back from 2009 due to battle.net development.
October 17th, 2009 at 6:28 am
I hear from good authority that postal 3 is going to have the source engine instead of the unreal engine. cant wait for that
October 17th, 2009 at 7:22 am
3 DVD’s for the Xbox version of RAGE huh? MS is going to look more and more foolish for trying to prove they don’t “need” blu-ray in their system.
October 17th, 2009 at 7:23 am
Jeezzz give the guy a break. Theres that many awesome games coming out next year, you cant put them all in a list which is HIS OPINION. I bet if you put your lists up you would still get people sooking about, hey wheres this game? hey wheres that? Little faggots whoever gets involved
October 17th, 2009 at 7:50 am
Diablo 3 won’t be out until 2011
October 17th, 2009 at 8:32 am
Well — I’ll be. It’s wacko.
October 17th, 2009 at 8:46 am
FFXIII as everyone else says. And i think white knight cronicles derserves a mention before the likes of Battlefield BC2 and max payne 3. It seems to me as though you guys think shooters are the only games worth playing. Don’t get me wrong, i like shooters but, when you’ve played one you’ve played them all. Call of duty is the only one i can honestly say doesn’t get boring.
October 17th, 2009 at 9:14 am
Another “games to look forward to” list and yet I still don’t see a reason to buy a PS3. Keep reaching for those stars Sony!
October 17th, 2009 at 9:15 am
Bioware confirmed “Mass Effect 2″ on the PS3 in their own press conference. They later tried to back out of the comment, thanks to Microsoft once again trying to confuse people into thinking a timed exclusive game is a true exclusive. MS are a bunch of sneaky bastards, their consoles best game wouldn’t be in the top ten of a PS3 lineup.. they are seriously short on exclusives. So what does MS do? They throw ads on tv for multi-platform games just so they can have their logo on it alone to confuse people into thinking the console has games. Then they dump millions into companies to delay the PS3 version of a game, again to pretend like they have exclusives. It’s sad. As long as stupid people buy into it, Microsoft will always exist.
October 17th, 2009 at 9:52 am
Agreed, it’s a good year for brown. Good year for sociopathic anti-heroes, too. Glad to see the game industry’s getting so, um, innovative. *makes jerking motions*
October 17th, 2009 at 9:53 am
StarCraft 2 will outsell most games on this list.
And it’s confirmed for 2010.
If you want to suggest that it may be delayed… you could make that suggestion about any other game on this list too.
October 17th, 2009 at 9:55 am
Holy shit what a bunch of whining little cocks leaving sniveling comments about why “THEIR” most wanted games didnt make this persons PERSONAL list, or crying bias, or what a big bad entity Microsoft is for this and that. Give the guy a break, its HIS opinion. You dont like it? Then go write your own fucking list that everyone will also bitch about. Quit fucking crying and enjoy what you’ve got, but of course its NEVER EVER good enough.
Here’s some tips from a grown up: (1)save your allowance from your parents and go buy the other systems, or even better, (2)get a JOB delivering news papers, mowing lawns or selling lemonade, or (3)write a letter to Santa and hope your not on the naughty list over all of your incessant snotty complaining, and if all else fails you can always,(4)SHUT THE FUCK UP. It’s ALWAYS some little SONY Fagboy at the forefront of the endless complaining and bitching…ALWAYS. Go ask mommy for a pudding snack and your favorite superman spoon. But most of all, TRY a little harder. Fucking spoiled little annoying children. Christ! WAAAA snif WAAAAA
October 17th, 2009 at 10:04 am
Xbotsrdumb, Im looking at you, among others. (see my previous comment)
October 17th, 2009 at 10:18 am
The old republic anyone?
October 17th, 2009 at 10:46 am
You forgot Half Life 2: Episode 3 and Star Wars: The Old Republic.
Both of these WILL be out in 2010. OK so no confirmed date but we all know (the intelligent ones anyoway. Not you fanboys or niggers), that they are to be released in 2010.
October 17th, 2009 at 10:51 am
unfortunately APB will only be on the PC for an undisclosed amount of time. The Xbox360 version doesn’t have a release date yet.
October 17th, 2009 at 11:28 am
As someone mentioned, Starcraft 2 is hands-down the most anticipated game of 2010. It has been confirmed just as much as most of these games have, in fact more so than some of them.
Take Halo Reach for example, it said “Falls 2010″, but I see no exact date there, and I also see no evidence that the game is even remotely close to done. SC2 on the other hand is in Alpha testing, has hundreds of screenshots out, gameplay footage, and has been said by Blizz-Activision that it will be out in 2010 (read the announcement about SC2 Delayed because of Battle.net, it was all over the web).
Gran Turismo 5 has had upwards of a dozen separate release dates as well. I’m not saying your list doesn’t have a lot of games that are much anticipated, but I feel that SC2 is THE game of 2010.
October 17th, 2009 at 11:32 am
After further review, it seems like some people were looking for a list containing “Starcraft 2″ in 20 different languages.
October 17th, 2009 at 11:33 am
final fantasy 13 D:
October 17th, 2009 at 11:35 am
Its quite simply only MAG. Nothing else. Just MAG. Drop the acronym people..
October 17th, 2009 at 11:45 am
Wow I really really really – super really wish i could be big as a game geek as 82% of you guys to ditch this article…
Have no idea if this is the written words of young insecure boys that deep deeep deeeep down are so insecure about them selves and the futere that the only place for them to try and sound cool is her….. Or it might be the unintellectual people already in that age – “fighting” online with 13 year olds.
Thank you for article !
October 17th, 2009 at 12:13 pm
=Mafia 2= ???
October 17th, 2009 at 12:18 pm
shitty list done and done
October 17th, 2009 at 12:20 pm
“We can’t speculate”
Metroid: Other M literally has “2010″ in the trailer.
October 17th, 2009 at 12:27 pm
Wow, guns, guns, guns, guns, guns, guns, guns, and more guns.
I’m so hyped.
At least Gran Turismo and GoW3 broke the pace.
Personally I’m hyped for Sin & Punishment 2. Yes, I know, it’s more GUNS, but it’s more of arcade action than anything.
October 17th, 2009 at 12:28 pm
You don’t include true AAA games like Final Fantasy XIII, White Knight Chronicles or Super Mario Galaxy 2 but you do have time for pile’s of crap like Postal 3, Army Of Two and Red Steel 2???
One word – FAIL.
October 17th, 2009 at 12:33 pm
OMG…. this is just ONE list (and a decent one i
might add). There are plenty of them out there so
just go read those and stop crying.
October 17th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
October 17th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
Metroid: Other M clearly has 2010 at the end of the E3 trailer. So it would not be “speculating” to put it on this list, or at least as an Honorable Mention.
October 17th, 2009 at 12:44 pm
This list without SC2 is a complete joke.
October 17th, 2009 at 12:55 pm
lack of StarCraft II = lol
October 17th, 2009 at 1:24 pm
Why is there no Starcraft II? I know it’s the site’s opinion, but it’s got to be an intelligent one, you know?
Fail.
October 17th, 2009 at 1:25 pm
Why is there no Starcraft II? I know it’s the site’s opinion, but it’s got to be an intelligent one, you know?

October 17th, 2009 at 2:06 pm
WOW! Only three games on this list (ME2 being a prime one) made sense to me….everything else is crap I’d pick up in the 20 dollar bin at Best Buy.
October 17th, 2009 at 2:25 pm
ok ok, this list is good but has no importance games, I mean that if for example postal 3 is a disappointment, a little pass unnoticed, but when starcraft 2 is a disappointment, I guarantee you will be the highlight of 2010
ponre my list is somewhat personal, but I think it is more fair
- army of two: the 40th day
- Bioshock 2: sea of dreams
- super mario galxy 2
- Starcraft 2
- Metroid: other M
- Mass effect 2
- Red steel 2
- Max payne 2
- Alan Wake
- Heavy Rain: the origami killer
- Pikmin 3
- diablo III
- Crysis 2
- Okamiden: Chisaki Taiyou
- Final Fantasy XIII
- God of war 3
- Battlefield: Bad company 2
- Reach halo
- Gran turismo 5
- Left 4 dead 2
October 17th, 2009 at 2:27 pm
no starcraft 2 no diablo 2 and MAG “(short for Massive Action Game) is trying something no other FPS multiplayer game has been able to pull off before: massive 256-player battles on huge maps.”
EVER HEARD OF PLANETSIDE OR TRIBES HURDUR if you going to be a gaming site learn your games noobs this site blows. its just GUNZ HURDUR
dont forget Half Life 2: Episode 3
fail
October 17th, 2009 at 2:28 pm
sorry, max payne 3
October 17th, 2009 at 2:45 pm
how about Splinter Cell Conviction Huh!
October 17th, 2009 at 2:47 pm
Mafia 2 is missing..
October 17th, 2009 at 2:51 pm
Yeah I’m so offended too man…!
How about Tetris 2010 ! Huh…
Ha nah… Good list… Cheers bro’
October 17th, 2009 at 3:13 pm
Even if Metroid hasn’t officially been confirmed for 2010, it’s a given. Monster Hunter 3 has a confirmed early 2010 release date. Super Mario Galaxy 2, the sequel to the single highest-rated game of the generation so far, is also confirmed for 2010. It might have also been nice to include No More Heroes or Sin & Punishment 2, but I guess they’re not brown enough.
October 17th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
No More Heroes 2?
Anyway it was a decent list. Most of the exclusive PS3 game I’m going to get were on there (MAG, GOW3)
But a tad biased to Nintendo….
October 17th, 2009 at 3:41 pm
LAME¡¡¡¡¡¡
October 17th, 2009 at 5:21 pm
No Mafia 2 on that list? What the…
October 17th, 2009 at 5:48 pm
[...] [...]
October 17th, 2009 at 6:08 pm
Hey bro, great list, I dig what you’ve chosen….but you forgot these PS3 EXCLUSIVES:
1) Gamers are Fags 2010
2) Pudding Cup Extreme Challenge
3) Opinionated Shitfaces Unleashed
4) Fanboy Cockfest
5) Kids Mommy Hunt
6) Circle Jerk Cum Swap 2010
and the all new rock band,
7) Whiny Little Assholes (U.S.A. Edition)

Crackdown as a GTA contender? Crackdown sucked. What a joke.
October 17th, 2009 at 9:38 pm
cool list, if you cant shoot in the back of the head and taste brains then its not worth playing.I love FPS games……
October 17th, 2009 at 11:30 pm
hmmmm… no more heroes 2. God of war 3. Northing but the usual sandbox / snooter crap everyone makes and at the end only 2 of them are actually worth gettting.

Wow, i think i take a looooong snooze in 2010. I am seriously concerned about the excitement factor of titles on this list. …the Fuck, where is starcraft2 ?
October 18th, 2009 at 3:05 am
Starcraft 2?
October 18th, 2009 at 6:43 am
this article is wrong in so many ways
2 problems i found straight away:
1. stalker clear sky was not an expansion pack
2. gt5:prologue had hd, and even if you’re one of those ppl who say its not a proper game then gt4 had it anyway
October 18th, 2009 at 1:51 pm
what about fallout new vegas
October 18th, 2009 at 3:09 pm
Deus Ex 3 is on the list, that’s all that matter. Good job.
October 18th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
What about ModNation Racers for PS3?
October 18th, 2009 at 3:52 pm
Lost planet 2 should have been up there Thanks!..
October 19th, 2009 at 12:22 am
i am looking forward to god of war 3 (YES!) and MAG and Bioshock2 but seriously no metal gear solid OR gears of war? thats terrible >:(
October 19th, 2009 at 9:14 am
I am waiting Starcraft 2!
October 19th, 2009 at 12:00 pm
hold on, so nobody is mentioning Splinter Cell Conviction.I’ve been waiting for the game for two years. Thank god Ubisoft had the sense to take out the social stealth crap and the uzi trench coat move.
October 19th, 2009 at 2:06 pm
Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3 didn’t even make honorary mentions? Say what?
October 19th, 2009 at 2:50 pm
No More Heroes 2, Super Mario Galaxy 2?????? I agree with God of War 3 for sure though.
October 19th, 2009 at 5:30 pm
Great list!
To bastards that don’t know to read:
“…and while a lot more games are coming out, we obviously couldn’t include them all — our list grew from ten games to twenty games simply because even we were surprised how many title are lined up for 2010.”
So sillys, stop arguing and shut up…
October 19th, 2009 at 7:44 pm
If only games with a confirmed set release date in 2010 are included in the list, are you sure L.A. Noire should be mentioned? As far as I remember no release date has ever been mentioned for it, and disconcertingly enough there has been a complete silence surrounding the project since the trailer release 2 years ago…
What does have a confirmed 2010 date though is Rockstar’s “Agent” which is set to be a Bond-style spy thriller set in a Cold War scenario of the 70ies… I can see why it is not listed as it would be pretty ridiculous to base this all on a title, a logo, and one sentence on the scenario, but I still can’t help looking forward to seeing how that one turns out.
Nice article and a refreshingly short read, although I have to disagree in one point: “Deus Ex 2″ has far from gained a cult status. Being the sequel to a challenging, detailed freeform thriller, and then turning out to be a mindless linear shooter dumbed down for a mainstream audience, the game has been mostly cut up by critics and players alike – and rightly so.

WE SHOULD thRoW poOp at BLIZZARD HQ forr BEING WOW FAGS instead oF mAkinG SC2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 20th, 2009 at 8:35 am
Pfft.. Starcraft 2 is pretty confirmable for 2010 and who cares if you make a booboo and blizzard delays another year (really unlikely)

Deus Ex 2 sucked, it never achieved “cult status”.
October 20th, 2009 at 11:27 am
Fable III as an honorable mention? No Final Fantasy XIII?!? Sorry but this is a crappy, crappy list…
October 20th, 2009 at 9:33 pm
I’d say the only confirmed game you forgot would be Fallout: New Vegas. Fallout 3 won so many GOTY and was one of the best selling games, and likely the best selling open ended 1 player games, of last year and this new Fallout, made by the original creators, is set in Vegas and likely to be just as good if not better.

Singularity.
October 29th, 2009 at 2:32 am
hahahaha! thats just funny. So many people whining and bitching and moaning about a game they like not being on the lists. its funny really how people just succumb to whining just because people aren’t thinking exactly like them xD.
anyways, great list of games, several of these caught my eye.
November 1st, 2009 at 10:32 pm
You are forgetting the game that will outsell any game and yeah you guys might say I’m wrong but the game is none other than POKEMON HEARTGOLD/SOULSILVER!!! I mean you guys can contradict me all you want but you know its true.
November 3rd, 2009 at 7:17 pm
Leopard, nobody gives a damn about retarded, old pokemon. Come back to this site when you get a brain. Next thing on the agenda, why doesn’t this list have The ballad of gay tony. Where are all the #$@%ing psp games !?!
November 3rd, 2009 at 8:00 pm
B.A.D you can contradict me all you want. However whether those games are his tops or better they are nowhere near Pokemon’s league and you can contradict that I dare you.
