Release of Spore, Crysis, Bioshock, Episode 2, Spore and Spore.
Did I mention Spore?

So apparently you can make purely underwater creatures.
So apparently you can make purely underwater civilisations.
So apparently you can come across black holes and forming nebulae..

Apparently it's very difficult to come across black holes, it just gets sucked in

2007 looks to be a good year for PC gaming

as well as those, there's Supreme Commander , Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway, Unreal Tournament 2007, Quake Wars, Alone in the Dark, Left 4 Dead, Kane and Lynch: Dead Men, Clive Barker's Jericho, Marvel Universe Online, Lord of the Rings Online and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

and there's also some sweet looking titles coming out on the consoles

Spore is certainly graping my squildo too, but I'm pretty much luke-warm about everything else. As yet no good news this year for me, but plenty of bad news. Roll on 2008.

I think you missed Spore.

Being a (somewhat quiet but) huge UT fan, UT2K7 has had me by the nose since I first saw screenshot 2 years ago of what the new unreal engine was capabale of. That's another good reason why my PC is being upgraded soon.

Then as Duke said Supreme Commander, Quake Wars is due soonish (

) and the Eve graphics update is looking ever more likely that it'll happen this year, since they're starting to release screenshots like this.

Spore and Stalker (because I'm a bit of a Chernobyl nut) for me.

everything else is just trying to be a prettier version of something old.

Armed Assault and apparently Duke Nukem Forever is coming out this year. Or is it next year? Or last year?

EDIT: Vaguely back on topic in a non-game related way, I resigned my comission M, so I'll be a civilian by this time next year. Planning to take some time off and ya never know, might come and haunt you for a bit

Also Good news is my CoH/V account is ready to rock. Also I'm looking forward to a good year of Wii titles, Episode 2, Bioshock, S.T.A.L.K.E.R, SPORE and SPORE!

Having not bothered looking at spore at all before about 5 minutes ago, that looks kinda nifty.

I know. Surprisingly few officers who play computer games and those that do are usually pretty crap at it. Never ending source of frustration until I found 5punk. (That sounds so wrong but I can't be arsed to rephrase it). Oh and still a Captain. Will be for another year yet.
