After my Legacy of Kain and Evil Twin topics, somebody suggested that a videogame topic be set up. So here it is. What kind of games do you like, what are your favorite games, what games are you looking forward to? Discuss.
I myself recently faced great disapointment: the announcement of a new Rayman game.
Now you have to understand that I am huge fan of Rayman. I played the original game more times than is healthy for a person (16 playthroughs. In the end, I could play the game from start to finish in two days, without a single Game Over. Not without deaths, though.). I also loved the sequels Rayman 2, Rayman M and Rayman 3. And then it all went downhill. The next three games revolved around the Raving Rabbids, stupid bunnies who upstaged Rayman and turned the gameplay from platform to a collection of minigames.
The Rabbids have now been spun-off into a new series and Rayman is getting his own games again. This is the trailer for Rayman Origins:
I suppose they're trying to go for a "so stupid its funny" effect, but the new art style and humor do not appeal to me. I've waited so long for a real Rayman game and now I'm getting this???

This signature makes the preceeding post about 20% cooler.
