CoD:3 seems to be coming along nicely(even since Infinity isn't doing it). However, WWII games, no matter how stunning, are getting a little long in the tooth. I hope Infinity is making something not related WWII, hopefully something modern.
Surely it should be Quake Wars rather than Quake 4?
Quake Wars has me drooling with some recent media as of late. UT2007 not so much yet, though I am looking forward to it aswell. Almost wish they'd hurry up and get them released, however I'd rather have time to prepare for such games next year with as little bugs, etc as possible and new hardware within this year.

You're not the only one.
I just can't get over how fast in game graphics have progressed. They're way better than the pre-rendered cutscenes from just a few years ago. Sadly I can't play FPS games (motion sickness way to fast). (So maybe it's not so sad after all.)
Test Drive Unlimited looks awesome though I cant help feeling it sounds a little like Grand Turismo meets The Sims.

I've never seen any Broken Sword game but if it's anything like Monkey Island... Is the similarity just that it's an adventure game or does it go deeper? From the screen shots it doesn't look like it would have the humour & general wackyness that is Monkey Island (& Grim Fandango). Has anyone here played the earlier game(s) and gotten a comparison?
I've never been a fan of the UT or Quake series but I must admit that they look great.
Graphics seem to be making major leaps every 6 months which is worrying me slightly. Currently alot of the mid-high end cards are dipping below 30 FPS at 1600x1800 during ganeplay. When these games come out we just might NEED SLi or CF. Thats unless DX10 cards step-up.

What? You didn't believe anyone when they told you "Hey! That SLI stuff, we are SOOOO gona need that in the future to play at "reasonable" resolutions."
For me the future seemed clear that while we may not have needed it RIGHT then we would need it in the future. Heck I suspect in 2yrs or less we are going to NEED 4 gpu's to play games at "reasonable" resolutions if graphics keep advancing as they do.

I really do love those screens from 2007, they are pretty mind blowing. ;)
I'm literally bouncing up and down with excitment. TA was kick ass and SC seems to be a MORE than worthy successor.
UT2K7 for me, getting it wether or not I have a computer that can handel it by that time
VERY excited because....well LOOK at them (oh you have :P ) there ALL stunning!

Supreme commander looks pant-wettingly awesome to me. A sci-fi RTS with the scale slider maxxed. Fantastic.
COD3's looking pretty sweet too - no doubt providing another excellent chapter of Nazi/Jap-bashing. :D

Can't wait for STALKER either.
Quake Wars!
Supreme Commander!
Test Drive Unlimited!
Shame it sounds like being the last in the series though.
The graphics have certainly come on leaps and bounds in STALKER since the *sofa* leaked beta *sofa* :)

Do you have any updates on Crysis?
Exciting times

I can't say any more.
