All the crazy fucking games you should be keeping your eye out for.

Fallout 3 (Oct 28th)
First listing just for you Sam. I've been playing through the first Fallout and it is damn good once you pickup enough momentum to really do it.

Mother 3 (IN ENGLISH!!)
The fan translation is almost done. If you haven't played the original Earthbound, aka Mother 2, then you should check it out. It's sort of off beat Japanese humor + psychich children and aliens. Good times. But definitely grab both. The translation patch is going to be released in the next week or so, so either torrent the ROM or talk to me and I can hook you up.

Left 4 Dead (Nov 18th)
Now, you guys have probably been hearing me crap myself over this game for a while. It's nearly time. If you don't know about this, let me explain in a simple phrase: MUTATED RABIES STRAIN ZOMBIES. It is gonna be scary, but it will also promise for some really good times with friends. It's all online co-operative play (do I hear blog event), so if you don't have Steam, dl it (for free) and then get L4D when it comes out so we can all watch each other cry and scream about zombies as we play.

Dead Space (Oct 20th or Oct 14th if you are stupid Marcello with a PS3)
Now I'm not traditionally a fan of horror games because I am a pansy, but this game just looks damn solid. Just hearing the developer commentary sounds good. They aren't trying to break the mold, they just seem to be making a solid game. Check it out.

Guess that's all for now.
