If you Could Only Buy One More Game This Year - These Are What We Would Pick

"We have now officially passed the half way point of 2011 – and already we have had several must-buy titles. As always, we’re in the middle of the ’summer draught,’ where the rate of games being released declines compared to the start of the year. As publishers are holding back all of their titles for the holiday season – we gamers finally get time to finish up the games we’ve purchased, let our wallets recover somewhat, and decide what titles to get this holiday season. It’s usually hard enough to budget all the great games – but this year is going to be even harder!
Here’s the scenario we worked with. Unfortunately, due to the recession you’re left with only enough spare cash to bag you one title for the rest of the year. We know it’s a hard decision, and the thought may even scare some of you; but which single game would you choose?"

[NukaCola]

SKYRIM

If one is all I get, i'll get the game that's 300 hours of content.

[BeOneWithTheGun]

Agree 100%.

[BiggCMan]

Dark Souls for me. I would hate not having Skyrim, Uncharted, Twisted Metal, and Resistance 3, but Dark Souls is just looking incredible, and that too will have hundreds of hours of gameplay in it just like Demon's Souls did.

[EVILDEAD360]

VERY HARD to argue with NukaCola

Skyrim would be an amazing choice and can't wait to lose my life into that world..but I would also say with the 4-layer campaign, ending gthe trilogy, and the ridiculous amount of Multiplayer content that Epic through into Gears of War 3..that would have to be my first choice. Difficult though..

Thank god I will own em' all

Evil

[RedDead]

Shi*, hope no one saw my tard mistake
Skyrim for me anyway

[room414]

i would say skyrim but it'll likely be buggy as hell when it releases...i 'll wait till it gets patched

uncharted 3 for me

[paintsville]

Skyrim...overwhelmingly.
If I could buy two games the next would be RAGE.

[DaTruth]

Gonna have to say Dark Souls! All I really care about is DS and UC3 for 2011, but all this Skyrim hype is getting me interested!

I wasn't really into RPG's before the past few years, so Skyrim hasn't really popped up on my radar, but the few vids I've seen, and the hype from the RPG community is making me really consider this above most other titles for the year in a really convoluted quality game environment!

Lol @ disagrees! It's an opinion piece and all the comments are opinions! It's okay to disagree with someone's opinions, but this is neither the time nor place!

[Inside_out]

.
Nothing comes close to the value of Gears of war. Single Player, 4 player co-op, Horde mode with all new Beast mode and multi-player. The 320 GB 360 S Gears bundle looks great as well.

A very close second is COD MW3, the game that millions will buy day one, and lets face it, so will I...lol

Honorable mention goes to...

Resistance 3...look fantastic.

Skyrim...big and epic sounding.

Rage could be a potential massive hit.

Forza 4 looks incredible...

Halo Anniversary...C'mon it's Halo...lol

Rentals:

Witcher 2...might turn into a buy but it's a rental first. The PC had issues which they say are fixed....we'll see.

Uncharted 3...game looks ok, lots of cut-scenes ( again ) makes a decent rental. Multi-player looks interesting this time...we'll see.

Kinect...some interesting titles. Kinect sports 2 seems like a obvious buy...we'll see.

Battlefield 3...the game is a mess. Broken lighting and clunky animations. A rental will suffice. COD launches 2 weeks later, save your money. Watch and see...o_O

Bodycount...this one could turn into a buy but not sure what to make of the controls and sci-fi plot but the multi-player could be a winner.

[DaTruth]

I take that last part back!

[RememberThe357]

I want R3 the most, but I agree. If it was only one game I'd go with Skyrim. More game for the money.

[Solid_Snake-]

Battlefield 3 hands down.

ill pirate the rest. j/k

[Micro_Sony]

ZOMG!!!!!!!!SKYRIMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

[coolbeans]

Bear in mind that 300 hours of content part also falls under Star Wars: TOR.

[bwazy]

It might not be released THIS year (maybe), but hands down Guild Wars 2. Guild Wars 1 provided me with over 3000 hours of awesome gameplay. I can't wait for the sequel.

[LOGICWINS]

Uncharted 3. Single Player Campaign. Co-op. Competitive multiplayer. I'll be busy for a LOOONG time.

[SweatyFlorida]

Uncharted gets my vote as well :)

Dark Souls being a close runner-up

[icewater85]

UC3 gets my vote. With the campaign and the multi-player I don't need any other game. But I would buy the other games on Jan 1 2012.

[ZeroX9876]

battlefield 3 for PC

[gravemaker]

Skyrim, 300hours of gameplay

[PS360PCROCKS]

Oh no! Only 1 choice? frick um, probably BF3 only because I want my PC eye candy! But i'm so excited for Gears and Uncharted.

sidenote: the beautiful thing is we don't only have 1 choice! woo hoo!

[AndyWilliams24]

"Oh no! Only 1 choice? frick um"

&

"sidenote: the beautiful thing is we don't only have 1 choice! woo hoo!"

Mirror my thoughts exactly! =D

[FearNoAngel]

Uncharted 3.

[Wuu]

BF3 hands down.

[Elwenil]

This because I will get more for my money as I'll be playing it right up until BF4 comes out. Close second would be Uncharted 3 because I love the series but the multiplayer just doesn't hold my interest as long.

[Ducky]

I'm glad to see one of them picked HumanRevolution.

[NovusTerminus]

Dark Souls without a doubt.

[Zack_Fair]

Me too.

[Flummoxxed]

I third that for the sheer replayability and pvp fun... Dark Souls all the way...

[Colmshan1990]

There's so many games- Uncharted 3, Skyrim, Battlefield 3, Dark Souls, etc.
But, if I can only have one, it'll be Resident Evil 4 HD.
Yup, the remake. It's my all time favourite game and I can't wait to have it again.

[Lilbambit]

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is the only game I am looking forward to this year.

[DragonKnight]

Seriously? Please tell me you're 13.

[vishant101]

i think you must only own a wii

[Lilbambit]

:)

[stu888]

Skyrim!

[Wuu]

So you want to play singleplayer rpg, for rest of this year? Game definitely have to have MP component, don't you fink?

[stu888]

i know this is sad, but id rather sit in a dark room and get lost in another world than play MP. Don't get me wrong, I love the odd round of CoD but I prefer just getting sucked into another world! That's what makes Elder Scrolls SO good in my opinion.

[kramun]

'Game definitely have to have MP component, don't you fink? '

No they certainly do not.

[moaradin]

Star Wars: The Old Republic. Will be unmatched in content. 1600+(200 per class) hours of unique story, and added to that is all the endgame stuff any other MMO will have.

[Rob946]

Skyrim or MW3, MW3 may not be amazing but I know il have a lot of fun online with friends which should last a long time. If I really could only get one though id probably have to get Skyrim.

[beastgamer]

Skyrim, Battlefield 3, Resistance 3
hmmmmm

[nightmarex121]

Dota 2 probably.

[SpaceFox]

BF2 didn't come out 10 years ago Brad... came out in 2005.

[GamerEuphoria_Brad]

Your right. The line was meant to say "10 odd years ago". Truth be told, I would have had no idea of actual release date without looking it up. I just know I bought it an awful long time ago. Obviously 6 years but still, the point stands :P It's old, yet still the greatest ;)

[Goozex]

vita uncharted for me. when will they announce a release date for my vita? :(

[RockmanII7]

Me personally it would be Sonic Gen. I'm gonna have so much fun playing that game and trying to beat my time in speed runs I would easily pay $60 for it. The fact that it's only $50 just bumps it up even more then it was before.

[RELIGHT]

It's between uc3 and bm ac. Since uc has mp it wins for me

[RaptorGTA]

Bf3 for me..but skyrim is close.

[NoobJobz]

Are we talking about only being able to buy one game or only being able to play one game for the rest of the year? If only to play one game for the year, the decision becomes alot harder but if I was only able to buy one, it doesnt really matter to me. I could get the rest as gifts or rent them.

[KonaBro]

The MP itself is a couple hundred of hours of fun right there.

[DNAbro]

Skyward Sword

[GUYwhoPLAYSvideoGAME]

if i only had a wii, then yes.

[DNAbro]

damn, can't a guy have an opinion?

[Oldman100]

If i was limited to buying only one more game this year it would have to be uncharted 3.

[GUYwhoPLAYSvideoGAME]

i would take uncharted 3 even if it was only singleplayer. i haven't found a game as amazing save mgs4 since the 2nd came out. seriously, if i had a choice between one item from any form of media ever to watch, play, or listen to, and they all sold for 60$ it would probably be uncharted 3.

[PirateThom]

Metal Gear Solid HD collection... and I am aware of how ridiculous that is considering I own the games already but, well, screw you.

[AndyWilliams24]

That doesn't mean everybody else has them, or can't anticipate them. Opinion is subjective.

[Tr3y_4_Li43]

Uncharted 3 of course. And nothing else.

[OcularVision]

Still hoping for Diablo 3

[GamerEuphoria]

As was one of our staff, he still weeps to this day crying for Diablo 3

[JeffGUNZ]

Gears 3 for me. The guy who picked Gears 3 and wrote a narrative of why he picked it hit the nail right on the head. Those are my feelings and veteran gears feelings to a t'. I can't wait for September 20. It will come fast, I got my wedding next weekend, honeymoon after that, and before I know it, I will be a month away.

Been spending lots of time with my girl so when Gears 3 comes out, she can't say a peep!

[Redgehammer]

Lol @ can't say a word.. that is not an example of the women I know. :D

[AndyWilliams24]

Thanks man =D

Congrats on the wedding - have a great day!

[chasedagreat]

ill spend the time with her dont worry ill hold her down for you

[JeffGUNZ]

Thanks. Teamwork, that's what it's all about!

Thanks AndyWilliams!

[Redgehammer]

Rage.

[mttrackmaster38]

Saints Row The Third for me. Yeah, I said it. :)

[CGI-Quality]

Definitely Gears of War 3!

[chasedagreat]

uncharted 3 hands down

[belal]

Uncharted 3 for me, BUT i don't know about you guys but i'm a big mgs fanboy, i woud probably pick that game over anything else because it's mgs.

[GamerEuphoria]

" i'm a big mgs fanboy, i woud probably pick that game over anything else because it's mgs"

The exact reason why MGS was my runner up ;) haha

[RE_L_MAYER]

the way you can save and still get new games is preety easy,the way i do it i can maybe get 1(2sometimes) new games per month IF there is ones i like thats coming out-otherwise i make a list of the ones i would want and see how far they are from each others release date and how much are they,i only try to get first day release games that have bonus with pre orders thats worth preordering it or collectors editions,for example im gonna get deus ex augmented ed/uncharted collectors ed/and skyrim(for the premium map with pre order)others like MGS,splinter cell,ico with collosus,nfs the run(idk yet) not a big deal-they likely to be in stock after months to come and likely to get alot cheaper as well ;)

[MasterCornholio]

If the PS3 version of SKYRIM is good i would get it. If not then i would have to say Uncharted 3.

[Psychotica]

Battlefield 3 where multiplayer >300 hours of gameplay

[BitbyDeath]

Uncharted 3, followed by Twisted Metal, followed by Skyrim

[AsunaYuukiTheFlash]

I can't choose between Zelda and UC3 :(

[Why o why]

*stresses out*

[Merivigian]

Skyrim. Not only quality, but quantity. I can bunker down for 2 months with that game, waiting for 2012, than I could with the others. 2 months being it's release date until the end of the year.

[bloodybutcher]

i am torn between BF3 and Dark Souls...Skyrim can wait till next year since it is only sp game.

[belac09]

catherine.

[DFresh]

Uncharted 3 though Battlefield 3 is very high up there.

[Ramas]

Silent hill

[Pyscho_Mantis]

Deus Ex, Skyrim or Dark Souls. I failed I know but I cant make up my mind

[GamerEuphoria_Brad]

When I was asked to pick which one I wanted as my number 1, I argued the fact I had 5 games I wanted to place at number 1.

Arkham City and Skyrim lost out on the number 1 spot purely because of its lack of MP. AC will only be short, 15hrs or so. Skyrim, maybe epic at 100+hrs, but it left Gears 3 and BF3 purely because I can put 500 hours into the MP and still enjoy it.

I had to go with BF3 in the end.
