Most Anticipated Games for 2010

2010 promises to bring with it a ton of good games. Here, you'll find a list of the ones I'm looking forward to the most. Now, it should be noted that some of these games are only penciled in, and might end up being pushed back to 2011 or later, but we'll go ahead and include those on our list anyway...

Darksiders - This game about a fallen angel's quest to postpone the end of the world has all the makings of a game that I will love. With elements of God of War, The Legend of Zelda, and Prince of Persia all meshed together into one action-packed platformer, Darksiders should be a ton of fun to play, even if turns out not to be entirely original.

Red Dead Redemption - Think Grand Theft Auto set in the old west. That's all you need to know. And if that doesn't sound amazing to you, then stop reading my blog right now.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 - The original was one of the best games ever made, and even if this game is more of the same (which it supposedly isn't), that's not a bad thing. I can't wait to get my hands on this game.

Mass Effect 2 - BioWare is back at it with the sequel to their 2007 smash hit. I don't think there's any doubt that this game will be just as good, if not better, than the original.

Metroid: The Other M - I'm a sucker for space aliens and beautiful female bounty hunters. This game is supposedly more like the side scroller games from yesteryear and not the first person "Prime" trilogy that followed them.

StarCraft 2 - Given the fact that Blizzard takes forever to actually get games to the marketplace, I have no real hopes for StarCraft 2 actually being released in 2010, but they're still sticking by their claim that it will. If it does, I'll pwn it.

BioShock 2 - I have to admit, this sequel looks an awful lot like the first go around, but seeing how good that game was, that can't be a bad thing.

Halo Reach - I told myself after Halo 3: ODST's epic fail that I wasn't going to revisit the Halo universe again. I've never enjoyed the Halo games as much as everyone else anyway, but something tells me this game will be huge, nonetheless, and because of that, I feel somewhat obligated to include it on this list.

Fallout: New Vegas - This is another one of those games that I find hard to believe will actually be released this year, but its still on the calendar a tentative Holiday release. Considering my profound love for Fallout 3, I can't wait to get my hands on something new from this universe. Consider this one on top on my list for 2010.
