I mean it's the only one on that list I'm getting and switch only people should help. I get the feeling this may be a year we're itd die in any month

March-April 2020 is fucking stacked
- Thread starter AuthenticM
- Start date
I guess it's been like this for awhile now, but it somehow seems to be getting worse (better?).
I mean, even if you didn't have a job and just played games every day for 10 hours a day you still couldn't play everything good out there. It's freakin nuts. Part of it is just the amount of games, the other part are these games just being so long nowadays.
Hmm, for the month of March, I need to decide between FF7R or Nioh 2. Still not sure. For April I'm leaning mostly to Trials of Mana but I do want to play RE3. I'll probably pick up RE3 during October if there nothing I'm interested comes out during that month. Geez, why so many during this timeframe.
I'll be in for FFVII Remake, Half Life: Alyx and Cyberpunk day zero. The rest will have to wait or I'm not interested in them.
FF7, Doom and Cyberpunk are day one for me. Will pick up RE3 later.
Might as well buy P5R Asian version in Feb just to support the dev. But not really gonna play the game again after I platinumed the original P5.

Wow, that's a very varied list of games. RE3 is my most anticipated though
I'm definitely getting Animal Crossing and Doom.
Alyx, FF7 and Cyberpunk are likely after a price drop.
The rest, dgaf.

Yeah, a lot for everybody. It'll be a good time for gamers. I don't get as much time to play these days so I have to be selective.
Just Cyberpunk 2077 for me. My game selecting is getting slimmer as I get older it seems. Playing less and less and only interested in a few games every year. Hopefully the next-gen perks me up again. I'll no doubt eventually pick up a number of these in sales though. I might not play them but boy do I like buying them in Sales :D
Lol, not even close. No one was saying that for this year. People have been hyping 2020 up more and more.
FF7 and RE 3 are the only day 1's for me in that time frame. Cyberpunk I'm waiting for PS5, a few others I will buy on sale Langrisser, Trials of Mana.
Personally speaking, I'm not terribly hyped for any of those. FF7R's combat fundamentally doesn't appeal to me, I haven't the first Nioh yet, I've killed all hype for any Bethesda games and especially Doom: Eternal as long as Les Moonves and Robert Trump are part of Zenimax' board, and RE3make is way too early for me, Alyx is VR so I can't play that, and Cyberpunk just looks like just another immersive sim but with a way bigger budget.

Early 2019 got hyped up like crazy. 2 minutes on Google:
People say this ev-e-ry year, and this year was no exception.

I'm buying a new car next year so I'll only get Trials of Mana and Cyberpunk. FFVII will have to wait until I either get a PS5 or wait for the PC version.
I think it's tough because for some people a lot of these are day 1's.
How are you going to exclude May from that window when it has TLOU 2 and Avengers??
It's definitely exciting though. Not to mention that we don't even know what games will filling in the latter half of the year, Oct-Nov. could be just as fucking stacked š¤¤

I want to play FFVII and Cyberpunk so much, though I'm having second thoughts on whether I'll be getting them day one. I have the base PS4 and XBONE, and my graphics hard is going to be due for an upgrade, so performance is a concern. Cyberpunk I defenitely want to wait on until I've got better hardware and better screen.
I might wait until I can upgrade my hardware before getting any of those. I also need new glasses, because everything is sub-HD at the moment lol. Thinking about it, I'll probably need a new job to keep up to the level I want, while also taking care of more important life stuff. This might be a year where I don't buy any games.
I guess Cyberpunk will be pushed in May/June, just before E3. Animal Crossing will be the only title I will buy (not for me though).
No doubt. I want most of these as well. Thing is though, there's genuinely only so much time in the day and to buy them all day one would be a waste.Cyberpunk alone will demand your full attention for months honestly. That's why the following is a good idea:
As that's what I'll do too.
Pretty much culled this down to my interest level and what I'm buying. So not a lot though big AAA games, so I'm more excited about that then 5 or 6 indie games.
But if you expand this to all of 2020, then it gets fucking bonkers.
THe industry is terrible at pacing. They could learn a thing or two from the movie industry when it comes to scheduling
This particular March/April lineup seems pretty safe as far as quality goes. It's mostly hyped sequels, and from studios with excellent track records. You mostly already know what you'll be getting with this lineup. I think FFVII and Half Life are the biggest mysteries right now, and Cyberpunk will probably have performance issues early on like most games of that scale.
The difference is immense. 2020 is generation-defining good with huge games in that time period. It's immediately obvious how many more surefire heavy hitters are coming out compared to 2019. Games like Cyberpunk 2077 and TLOU 2 are GOTG material.
2019 games like Anthem, The Division 2, Metro Exodus, Crackdown 3, etc. looked so-so from the beginning. There's no way Cyberpunk 2077, TLOU 2, DOOM, Ori 2, etc. will be anything other than excellent to incredible.
It's reductive and kind of ridiculous to shrug off first half 2020 hype as, "oh people say that about every year". Look at the games that are actually coming. Clearly something special.

I'm a switch owner and I'm only really interested in Fairy Tail and Pirate Warriors 4 so it'll be at least a year till either gets sales if not longer
