None of the above. Rage looks mildly interesting,maybe Borderlands 2 if they actually come up with decent quests. The only game that has my complete attention is STALKER 2.
 
I will not be buying a single one of the above. Where's swtor/d3/gw2?

Poll fail.
 
I picked Skyrim, though will most likely not buy it till late next year when I can prolly expect the GOTY to be released.

Aside from that I am prolly most interested in Arkham City.
 
Mass Effect 3 and SWTOR would be tops for me, but in that list, I am most looking forward to BF3.
 
From that list - Skyrim. Mild interest in Rage.

BF3 was high on the list until the origin/steam break... other games to play at that time for me.
 
Dark Souls before

now BF3 because I don't have to deal with steam, yay!!!!

Stalker 2???

I havent heard about this. When is it due out?
 
So they're venturing over into console sales too huh? Hope they dont go all Crytek on us.
 
Poll fails big time, Uncharted 3 and Diablo III should be on that list. Especially Uncharted III if your going to put Gears 3, Zelda, and Star Fox (what the fuck seriously?) 3D on there. Dark Souls and Arkham City should also be heavily considered as well.
 
Skyrim for sure...at least on that list. I'd say I'm looking forward to Mass Effect 3 and Uncharted 3 just as much, though. I'm also really excited for Gears 3, but not quite as much.
I put in soooooo much time with Daggerfall and Oblivion (Morrowind, not so much) so unless Skyrim just straight up sucks, I'm pretty sure I might as well just cancel all of my appointments this Fall.
 
Upcoming? Skyrim is the only game in that list I'll play so it gets my vote by default.
 
Where's Uncharted 3? The Last Guardian? The Ico/SOTC collection?
Diablo 3?
Those would get my votes. Right now, Rage gets mine. <3 id.

lol just realised Starfox 64 was on there.

If Starfox 64 is considered an epic release in 2011 then it's time to throw the towel in and give up on gaming.
 
Should have made this poll a few weeks ago, Deus Ex would have been on it.
That said, I think many of these games are good, if not great, but Skyrim is the only game I would call epic that is on the list. Queue in the horse armor to ruin it a bit and queue in the Mods to take it beyond epic.

They won't use that DLC model anymore, Oblivion was the only case of it. Skyrim will follow a DLC similar to that of the later Oblivion ones and FO3. The claim at the moment is that each DLC will be between FO3 ones and Shivering Isles in terms of scope.
 
Shivering Isles was an "expansion". I hope they can release something as large as that or Bloodmoon for DLC.
 
Meh, I went ahead and voted for Rage just cause its the only one on there that I am remotely interested in. But again, Mass Effect 3 and Batman AA are the ones Im drooling over.

Well Bethesda claims they will be larger than FO3 DLCs in terms of scope, and more like "expansions." What they actually do, no one knows until it comes out.

But really I think too many people get caught up on semantics. I mean if you compare Blood Moon (I still have yet to play Shivering Isles, so won't use that) to say Point Lookout (FO3 DLC), Blood Moon is larger but from what I remember it retailed at 3x the cost. In terms of content for the money it seems roughly comparable, even more so if you consider there is a downward trend of absolute content due to the raising complexity of games. There is also raising prices, Skyrim is part of the new price increase to $60, expansion pack pricing likely would follow this price increase.

From what I hear New Vegas DLC (still haven't managed to get time to start those) is more akin to something like Point Lookout as well. It wasn't a smooth launch, but they've gradually come to an acceptable value/quality/cost situation in regards to DLC.

The Horse Armor thing is a bit of a running joke, but in reality it didn't cause some sort of drop in quality. Horse Armor type DLC these days (well for most reputable type situations) is usually the domain of preorder bonuses, cross promotion bonuses, or served as free token DLC for games that don't rely on microtransactions.
