We're almost exactly halfway through the year but even with our crude maths we can tell there's still plenty of time and games to come in 2009. Join us as we preview the games we can look forward to seeing before the year's end.

Can't wait for Bio Shock 2 and Assassins Creed 2.

I'm already pooping with excitement for Arkham Asylum.

I couldn't read the bit about Dragon Age, though, there were barely covered boobies. Looked good, though.

MW2 should be a good giggle, not specifically looking forward to it, though.

I'm not keen on any of the CoD series after CoD2.

CardJoe · 18th Jun 2009, 11:23

I have to admit, though I haven't gone hands-on with it yet, Arkham Asylum is the game that has me most excited.

Surely that was Kristen Bell?

My bad - I tend to see Eliza everywhere I look.

Well, it is looking like the only good Batman game ever.

The fact that there's a Bat-a-rang in the special edition just makes it sweeter.

Yeah I got the special edition on pre order for a friends birthday. I showed him a pick when I first saw it cos he is a huge Batman fan, he said if he ever got it he would sharpen it up on the bench grinder hahaha.

Brütal Legend looks good. Bioshock 2 should be alright if it's anything like the first game.

Bindibadgi · 18th Jun 2009, 12:23

I wanted to use the Relixed front page picture but Joe said no

Abhorsen · 18th Jun 2009, 12:30

Well "Summer" preview seems slightly off the mark but it certainly seems like its going to be a very expensive October!

That DS game has already caused a vast amount of humerous scenario's in our office this morning and looks very appealing! I'd love perhaps an iPhone version...

MajorTom · 18th Jun 2009, 12:33

It's all about OF2 for me. Used to be a big fan of the original. Such a bitch to complete.

Nice article, some titles I hadn't heard of yet.

You can go across any terrain, over any mountain and into any building.

Operation Flashpoint - outstanding. But does this mean you can actually go across any terrain, or that you can go across any terrain, as it was in Far Cry 2, scattered as it was with what we might call Mime Artist Practice Fields?

I'd at least use it to make a replica to sharpen, not sure whether I'd have at the one out of the box, though

V3ctor · 18th Jun 2009, 13:31

Only Bioshock 2 interests me... And maybe L4D2 (after reviews, I have a copy of L4D, don't want to buy the same game twice for 45€)..

GFC · 18th Jun 2009, 13:49

I'm going to buy a new PC just for MW2, still playing MW1 till this day, one of the best games I've ever played.

Jipa · 18th Jun 2009, 14:23

I really lol'd at the Dragon Age photo

What a nice coincidence to have the hair just so. In the overall lameness such censorship falls somewhere between having a word that sounds like "****" so it doesn't get censored out, and censoring your own curse words on forums... Point being, if you want to have boobs then FFS have boobs, its your game. And if it indeed is just something that happened for a single shot than I'm sorry and just made myself seem like a total ass.

Oh and CoD and Bioshock (maybe) are the only ones I'm even mildly interested in. I'm just pretty sure CoD is just going to be a couple of new maps to the multiplayer, and Bioshock still gets good reviews, but just fails to make me play it through.
