What are you going to buy this year?

Well October starts off the big hitters like Gears of War 3, Rage and Dark Souls. Batman: Arkham City coming out soon along with other AAA games

So like the title suggests, what are your 1st priority buys for this packed holiday season as I'm sure a majority of us can't afford to buy every new AAA game that comes out in 2011.

#1 priority for me is Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception.

Must get category (after Uncharted 3): Batman: AC, and Zelda: SS

Hopefully get as a gift or buy it later category: Battlefield 3, Saint Rows: The Third, Star Wars: The Old Republic and Goldeneye 007: Reloaded

Games I'll wait until the price drops category to $30 or lower: Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, DBZ: Ultimate Tenkaichi (Guilty Pleasure ;) ) Sonic Generations, and Assassins Creed: Revelations,

That's it, I don't buy a lot games, mostly I just trade the ones I played :). But these games I really need to have and if necessary I'll buy them.

November 8th: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (Xbox 360) -- Hardened Edition pre-ordered.
November 15th: Saints Row: The Third (Xbox 360) -- Most likely shared between my Dad and I.

GODLIKE-NESS
The only definite buys are probably gonna be Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 and Batman: Arkham City (But I'm not getting that on release).

I'll probably pick up Modern Warfare 3 if enough of my friends do.

Other games that I want but have no intention on buying this year:
Saints Row the Third
Skyward Sword (But that requires me on buying another Wii)
Skyrim
Deus Ex
Ocarina of Time 3D
Starfox 64 3D
 

The Chilli God

Like a Boss
Heroes of Might and Magic VI (pre-ordered, does it still count?), Assassin's Creed Revelations, Mass Effect 3, and Borderlands 2 (hey, it *could* come out within a year from now :p) are on my "must-buy" list. Tack on Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm, if you count expansions among stand-alone games.

My "maybe" list is Diablo III, Prototype 2, Batman: Arkham City, and maybe something for the DS if my wallet's still not totally empty.

As for already bought this year... Uhm... Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Limbo, Bastion, Deus Ex - Human Revolution, Pokemon Black, and Portal 2 were my purchases.
