Shaping up to be yet another good holiday season for gaming.

My first draft pick has to be Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. EDIT: New Spec Ops mode!?! Awesome!
Followed by Dragon Age: Origins. Also see the new trailer that looks great here.

I just pre-ordered Dragon Age, Alpha Protocol, and Risen. I can't freaking wait to play Dragon Age. It looks amazing.

Looking forward to Dragon Age, like others here. I just hope it doesn't get cut to shreds by our ratings broad.

Did they release gameplay footage? Because so far I've only seen artwork and a cinematics trailer.

I trust Bioware enough that even if I hadn't seen gameplay footage I would still buy the game. They are great developers, especially for RPGs. Plus for this game they got a bunch of the Black Isle guys (Baldur's Gate) to work on the game. So it is the spiritual successor to BG, made by Bioware, and looks great!?! SOLD. Plus the gameplay footage looks good too, all around win.

I'm also looking forward to ME2, Bioshock 2, Assassin's Creed 2, Halo 3: ODST, L4D2, Dead Rising 2, Lost Planet 2 (see a trend here? lol), and probably more if I could think of them. Won't end up buying all of those games but will definitely play them all. It is good to have family and friends to steal from hah.
