Since Green launch excitement is running high...
 

From another thread got me thinking:

I'd like to know what everyone's most anticipated releases were. Like in all your history of gaming from day one, what title(s) did you get all excited about the most?

I'll start and date myself. Doom II, meh. Quake II, so awesome. Fallout 4, big letdown.

Red Server.

Every mmo post eq (and all were mostly a let down).

Evolve (super let down on that, turned me off $60 triple aaa titles).

Mount and Blade 2 (not yet out).

Biggest hype though? Star Citizen. Like 4 years ago I spent hundreds of dollars on a warthog joystick, thruster, some pedals and a $70 ship in star citizen. Still hyped 4 years later. Oh, and when it launches I’ll still need to buy 2 cheap ass joysticks cause can’t dogfight with the warthog, but it will be super immersive!

Probably city of heroes or shadowbane

Red Server

Dark Age of Camelot.

Biggest was EQ Live. Hands down. I'd been following development for a pretty long time, managed to get a beta access code for P4. Shadowbane and Vanguard... not sure how excited I was, but I bought them and was promptly very disappointed.

Before that? Probably The Perfect General 2. I would be so happy if somebody could convince that to run under modern windows (not too hard, runs on Dosbox) with modern multiplayer(it has native support for null modems and dialup peer-to-peer).

Witcher 4

diablo 2, everquest online adventures (I was done playing it within a month lol...) final fantasy tactics

Vanguard Saga of heroes. Was in a guild with a dev in eq1 so he got me early hook up and acess was so stoked for that game...man did it get ruined...

Star Wars: The Old Republic a.k.a. Tortanic

With all the CGI movies (which I still love to this day), the hype was beyond real. It's the game that broke my heart more than any other in my 34 years of gaming.
