May should be a pretty good month in gaming. I hope to have Xenoblade Chronicles, Silent Hill: Downpour and The Witcher 2 knocked out by then. I am most looking forward to Sorcery and Dragon's Dogma. I'm hoping I'll get my money's worth out of Move with Sorcery because I certainly feel like I haven't yet. Move should have a library full of interesting games like Sorcery, but sadly it doesn't. Dragon's Dogma is going to be either really awesome or really terrible. I can't really tell from the videos so far, but I'm still looking forward to it.

Not much of anything, honestly. I am interested in seeing how Game of Thrones and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier end up being, but that's about the extent of it. Maybe Akai Katana, but I don't think I'll be buying any May releases.

I was wondering about Game of Thrones myself but games based on television shows and movies usually suck. I guess we'll have to see. I might buy that down the road once I learn more about it.

I am really looking forward to Sorcery and Resistance: Burning Skies. Sorcery seems to take advantage of the Move and actually might have a interesting story to coincide with the gameplay. As the first dual-stick FPS on the Vita, Resistance will set the benchmark and hopefully they set it high. I think it will also be refreshing to break away from the Nathan Hale storyline which became overwhelming in Resistance 2.

Considering picking up the Game of Thrones game because of the artbook that comes with the preorder. I absolutely the books and the TV series (Season 2 is fantastic so far!) but I can't see myself playing it right away, too much other stuff to play.

Well, I only intend to buy one game in May (Atelier Meruru), but I'm curious about more than a couple things like Starhawk, Akai Katanna, Dragon's Dogma, Ghost Recon: Future Solider, and Max Payne 3. I likely won't buy any of them anytime soon (they will very likely be impulse rentals down the road at best)

I was interested in Dragon's Dogma and maybe I'll have a job by then so I may be able to buy some games that I've been wanting to play. Would definitely be a nice change from the current games I've been playing.

Good luck on the job thing. It's definitely tough these days.

Other than the games coming out in May, I'm really looking forward to finishing up this semester and start summer vacation. I haven't done much gaming through school time so I'm more excited to play some games. Spring Break a while back had me miss my PS3 and played it a lot. Other than that I can't wait to watch the Avengers!

Thanks, it's a college town and there's usually stuff on campus so I should be able to find something (hopefully), just looking for something part time to do after classes for now, that extra cash would be nice.

I'm looking forward to being done with classes forever.

But back to actually answering your questions, I don't have any plans to buy any of the newly released game in May. I got a backlog I'm working on. I hope to finish kingdom heart. Started that game in 2011. I know I know, over a year, sad I know. I'll play D2 nightly with my friend and maybe MW3 and black ops with a different group of friends (if I get them). That'll be for starters and I'll see if I can work on another game once I finish kingdom heart. I have a few games in mine to play like dragon age, maybe I'll get to that after kingdom heart. Or go find kingdom heart 2 and play that right after I get done with kingdom heart 1.

I'm definately interested in Akai Katana. At the same time I am hesitant to purchase at launch. Due to how poorly shmups sell in the US and how likely a pricedrop is in the near future. Look at what happened to Deathsmiles... wait two or three months and save 50%. (I'm broke lol)

I am mostly looking forward to the Marvel Avengers Chronicles 4 table pack for Pinball FX2. No concrete release date yet, but Zen is hopeful to release in May. 4 tables for 800 MSP, one of the best values in gaming if you ask me ;). The lineup is Fear Itself, Infinity Guantlet, World War Hulk, and a table based on the recently released Avengers movie. Check out the newest trailer for The Avengers table which features six unique hero themed balls, each with their own scoring benefits.

Also looking forward to The Pinball Arcade DLC tables. Bride of Pinbot and Medieval Madness will be the first 2 pack followed by Cirqus Voltaire and Funhouse. 400 MSP per 2 pack. A little annoyed each pack includes a repeat table from Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection (which I already own), but I will be buying them anyways.

I might pick up Minecraft for 360, I haven't decided yet. 1600 MSP is a little steep for an XBLA game.

The Avengers was worth waiting and looking forward to. Great film and fun! Other than that I now look forward to finishing up this semester and working on my back log of games this summer.

My sister said we can go watch it tonight after dinner and cleaning out my apartment at school. Can't wait to see it.

I'm really curious to get my hands on Starhawk. I wasn't in love with their previous effort Warhawk (just to plain) but I'd love to try the RTS-TPS hybrid they've Frankenstein'd. From what I've heard, the beta build was quite a good bit of fun. Future Soldier is also on my hit list. It played very well in the beta and was a much faster pace than I'd expected. It was a tactical shooter more akin to a fast-paced version of Gears of War.....minus the extreme gore.

Don't. If you really want to play it, play it on PC. It doesn't take much to run it and you can do infinitely more with it.

Starhawk has been getting some great reviews. It sounds like any multiplayer fans should give it a look.

I just tried the Dragon's Dogma demo and that was pretty sweet as well. The griffin fight was probably more fun than any battle in Skyrim. I guess that means I'll be buying that along with Max Payne.
