Well, I'm looking forward to Haunted although it may come out this year and I'm surprised no-one has mentioned Stasis - assuming it is finished for next year that is.

I'm a bit surprised by that question as there is a fairly long thread about the game here:

I've already preordered/supported...

I didn't put that one on the list because I'm not so sure we'll see that series in 2012 but...I'm so spyched about this series (pun intended) Not because of JJ, obviously her role consists of phoning the production team every two months and talking to the head honcho for like 5 minutes. But just look at the story and the trailer, and of course Romano Molenaar's awesome artwork. (He is credited as Art Director but the art does strongly remind me of his style so obviously somewhere he had a hand in it) I think this will be a truely dark thrillerseries in the veign of Still Life.

That would be the new Deck13 game about a girl in Victorian London who meets a strange bunch of ghosts and goes on an adventure. Seems pretty fun to me.

Oscar - Gray Pierce is correct. I did reply to your post but, for some reason, it went off to be approved by an a moderator. If you look under release dates for this year, click on Haunted it will take you to a 2009 review. Yep, I've been waiting that long :z

Let's not push our luck - I'll be happy to have ONE game by Matt Clark out in 2012! :P

Hey, I can dream, can't I?:P I'm hoping he'll have learned his lesson with Bracken Tor.

sierramindy 11-27-2011 11:57 AM

I'm only looking forward to Secret Files 3, can't be too soon for me.
As for Ascovel and his mention of Gabriel Knight 4 being made by Telltale Games, that would be okay by me. Do you think they could also do Syberia 3 maybe? Any other wishful thinkers out there?

Yeah, apart from critics, i found the first one to be a good game, not a superb, but good. I didn't mention Memento Mori 2 because somehow i've yet to see more of it, those screenshots didn't really impress me, they're somehow in the strange color set, like washed colors, but hopefully it will turn out to be good.

As for new Sherlock Holmes, i really respect what Frogwares is doing all those years, but it's like - they fix one thing in next installment, and ruin the other. Personally, i found "vs Ripper" not as good as Awakened or Nemesis, and i still think Silver Earring is most well-rounded of the bunch. Also, implementing console-like interface doesn't really put on a hope, but again we'll just have to wait to see how it turns out.

Thanks for asking :)

Completed it without any more help, LOVED IT. Really felt like it helped get on a role with proper puzzle solving without much of the frustration of past games. And the story and atmosphere was brilliant, I was glued to the end.

Well I say glued, but I did get a new job and move to the other end of the country in the middle of playing it so that might have slowed it down a bit. Right now just writing and playing music, not much time for gaming. but I will come back to it soon, (looking at book of unwritten tales)

Pretty much anything by Daedelic. Their games are worth it for their art alone!
I was really looking forward to The Walking Dead, but after reading the lacklustre reviews of Jurassic Park, Im starting to waver a little! I really wish TellTale, who are obviously massively talented, would invest in an original IP.

With the non-adventure games I'm really looking forward to ALIENS: Colonial Marines, and Mass Effect 3.

And on the indie scene, Gratuitous Tank Battles is really high on my list aswell. ( www.cliffski.com ).

And Stasis. Which I played this morning. But I really cant wait for it to be released! :D

Sughly 12-04-2011 10:41 PM

Oh man... Deponia. I want that game so bad. I dont think I've been as excited about a game in a looong time!

Also The Journey Down HD is gonna be amazing!

GenghisKhan44 12-05-2011 10:50 PM

I am only awaiting "Harvey's New Eyes" to come out in English. I hear (from a German who contacted Daedalic) it is due in the first quarter of 2012. ^.^

Deponia looks pretty interesting...

Lucius

Lucius was meant to be released in 2011, wasn't it? That's what it says on the developer's website.
