April Preorders

[Johnny]

A little early, but what April releases will you be buying during the month or do you already have preordered?
My list:

PS3
Grand Theft Auto IV (EU)

360
Nothing

Wii
Mario Kart (JPN)
Okami (US)
Osouji Sentai Clean Keeper (JPN)

DS
The World Ends With You (US)

PSP
Nothing

PS2
Nothing

Maybe:
Ferrari Challenge (PS3/EU)
Days of Memories 2 (DS/JPN)

Nice to see a light month, like March, for a change.

[Kinomoto_Shinji]

Next month is a odd month. I have neglected my PS2 for awhile but all of a sudden there are four games I plan to pick up.
Persona 3 FES
Arcana Heart
Chaos Wars*
Mana Khemia* (SHIPS the 31st, so it counts for being a April release so you can't really get it till the 1st)
*Still debating on these. I want them and like to support these type of releases, but damn why do these four games have to be all so close together? ;;__;; I should have my tax return by then, so I should be able to afford them, but I'm still not sure if I want to get them all since those type of games all require massive amounts of time which I don't have. :/ Bah...I know I'll buy them anyways...who am I kidding? ^^;;

[distantmantra]

PS2:
Persona 3 FES

DS:
The World Ends With You

GTAIV doesn't interest me in the slightest...

[juliant59]

March was small?

Army of Two, FF CC Ring of Rates, God of War COO, Wild Arms XF, FF Crisis Core and that is just for what systems I have lol. Oh wait I guess it is small.


Well here is my April slate

DS

World Ends With You (maybe)

PS2

Arcana Heart

PS3

GT:Prologue (maybe)
Grand Theft Auto 4


That looks to be it. SOme maybe's and some definites in there.

[ADC]

April will be a good month, I trust. Not as big for me as for some, of course, but good.

Nintendo DS
It's a Wonderful World
Nintendo Wii
Ôkami
Sony Playstation 2
Arcana Heart
Shin Megami Tensei Persona 3 FES

[HitokiriShadow]

Well, I originally thought Arcana Heart and Mana Khemia were March titles (and I guess the latter one technically is), but it looks like they are April titles.

So my list for April is:

PS2:
Arcana Heart
Mana Khemia
Persona 3: FES

[indigo0086]

GTA:IV for me. I'm playing through GTA:SA so I can be ready for the "jump" to the next game. From all I'm hearing of the previews this is going to be one hell of a game.

[Chacranajxy]

Just Okami for the Wii and Persona 3 Fes. Also, the review build of Mana Khemia... not so hot.

You might be waiting a while with Chaos Wars, this game has been pushed back a ton, and I still haven't seen anything that indicates this game is ever getting a US release.

[Jarred]

Yup, that's my one April game as well for the 360. I'm currently bathroom reading the big write up in the latest EGM issue. Sounds rock solid.

[Kinomoto_Shinji]

Ah. I didn't know that. Well if it gets pushed back again it wont hurt my feelings since three games in one month is enough for me.

[TheStrongMan]

All for 360...

4/8
Supreme Commander

Aeon is how we roll!

I'm hoping that the controls are as fluid if not more so than what EA did for C&C3.

4/28
Grand Theft Auto IV

I'm hoping I'll be able to enjoy this one much more than the lackluster San Andreas. GTAIII is my fav so far, so a I'm looking forward to returning to Liberty City.

Perhaps I spoke too soon, I got the new issue of Game Informer and it has an ad for Chaos Wars. So I'd say it's definitely getting a US release, but still no idea on a release date. But it does say it's a Gamestop exclusive now.

[Advent_Nebula]

Persona 3 FES

[ADC]

Hey, johnny. Of the three, which of you were more bummed out that you weren't born on the 17th? Your dad, your mum, or your bad self? And are you totally drunk right now?

[Johnny]

Ha! Nah I prefer the 15th, especially this year as it was a Saturday and means I have a long weekend thanks to being off for St.Paddy's on Monday :D

Oh and yeah, I got very drunk last night ;)

[Mateo_home]

Looks like I'll be picking up Mario Kart Wii if the late April release date is true and doesn't get pushed back. Nintendo, I'm giving you a nasty look. And I might try out The World Ends With You. Not sure yet. But I am sure that I'm not getting Castle of Shikigami 3. After hearing the really bad dialog the game has to offer, I've been convinced to avoid it.

[Johnny]

That's a real pity if you're baseing your non-buy on poor dialogue. It's a fantastic shmup.
You have a Japanese Wii, right? Pick up the Japan release. There's next to no text and it should be pretty cheap by now.

Well, Turtles in Time had some of the worst dialog ever, and that was a kick ass game. My earlier statement has been canceled out. So to be fair, this at least won't be a right away purchase.

[rainking187]

me too, i think making the game too real is wat killed it

[dunno001]

I've got preorders in on P3:FES (PS2) and Rondo of Swords (DS). Mind you, I'm not someone who typically preorders games, either, so for me, this is crazy. (Although I am still stalking for Etrian Odyssey 2's preorder...)

[ilmaestro]

GTA IV (360, Limited Edition, UK)
Valkyria of the Battlefield (PS3, Limited Edition, JP)
SEGA Superstar Tennis (360, Asia)

[UsadaHikaru]

After a couple years of procastination I finally picked up Yakuza (PS2) yesterday. I don't think there's anything coming this month that I'd want which is probably good since I'm knee-deep in about four or five games right now anyhow.

[GetterBeam]

Despite still not having a Wii, I picked up my last missing games in the form of Brawl, Ultimate Pinball: Williams collection, and Link's Crossbow Training w/ Zapper yesterday. I'll order Baroque and probably Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Blue DS within the next few days/Day 1 for Baroque Wii.

[Danj]

I've a preorder on Persona 3: FES as well. Anyone who doesn't should do so at the earliest possible convenient time. Don't own a PS2-capable device? Run out and buy one now. YES RIGHT NOW. You know this game is going to be out of print like a month after it comes out.

[Azumangaman]

I have to pre-order Persona 3: FES, but otherwise I can't imagine I'd pick up anything else for the month.
