I like Dragon Age for the PC, but it didn't really grab me to play it all the way through (load page much?). I got Modern Warfare 2 at the same time and while it does give you that in the movie feel the single player option is over in about 5 hours (way too short) and the replay value in single player even on harder modes just isnt there since you know where all the targets are going to spring up.
I love Forza 3 for xbox, but you have to be a semi gear head to get kicks out of that game.
Aion looks kinda like a lot of other NCSoft games of the last few years... interesting but missing something that will make them last.
Assassin's Creed 2 looks better than the first, but I have yet to play it.
I think a fair number of people are burned out with WoW, I know I am, I have quit a couple times before for 6 month breaks generally in spring. The new T10 gear looks nice, and it would be great to get those patterns and top gear on my main team, but do I have the stomach to really grind out a crap ton of Frost emblems? Not really, I think ilvl 232 with 245 chest and bracers onmy main team will be good enough. The alt teams will be lucky to get a bunch of ilvl 219 and some badge gear.
The only problem I see is, unless your a skier or live in a nice warm climate winter can make fun outside stuff a bit tough. Most games nowdays just don't hold my attention due to annoying aspects or insane load times.
Maybe Tiger Woods will come out with a new game for the Wii that has XXX themes! :P
I read this somewhere on the net, quoting ...
'My porn addiction is cured thanks to WoW. For those with a WoW addiction i can only recommend porn'.
Everything that is fun in life is either bad for your health, immoral or illegal!
I would agree that Dragon Age is an excellent game. I took the time before 3.3 to play through and beat it for the PC. I would also say get the game for PC over any of the consoles. That being said there are some excellent PS3 games out.
Killzone 2 (FPS)
Infamous (Third person action)
Modern Warfare 2 (FPS)
I have enjoyed/enjoy those three games tremendously. Also I have heard nothing but good things about Uncharted 2: Drakes Fortune, but I have not played it myself.

Belland 80 Paladin

If you're bored, stop playing.
It sounds snarky but it's not.
Doesn't get any simpler than that.
I've been waiting on Star Trek Online if that piques your interest.
Someguy: "You must really like playing with yourself"
Me: "OH HELLS YEAH!"
I haven't seen a really worthwhile Star Trek game since Super Star Trek.
I liked Birth of the Federation.
The graphics were attrocious, and it was an offline one-player game.
Well could play online through the microsoft zone or something similar.. but never had anyone connected there.
But as far as the game went, it was decent.
All about building up the infrastructure for your race.
You could play Cardassian, Federation, Ferengi, Klingon or Romulan.
Each had technology trees which opened assorted buildings or ships.
And followed the assorted star trek shows, as far as what each had.
Federation would start off with Constellation class ships (original Enterprise) and work up to Defiant Class Cruisers and Sovereign Command Ships (the Enterprise Riker was Captain of, in the episode where Picard is going through time with Q and is an old and possibly senile man in).
Neat game.
