Most Anticipated Titles of 2009 Stuck

The year of 2008 is quickly coming to a close. That means college football is also done soon and the days will only be getting longer and longer from here on out. The former is a bummer while the latter is very exciting, even though the wind chills here in Oklahoma are down about -10 this morning.

So with 2009 fast approaching, I've assembled my list of my five most anticipated games, be sure to let me know yours by commenting on this blog!

Fight Night Round 4: I am usually not a big fighting game fan but come on! Fight Night Round 3 was a favorite multiplayer game of mine and I cannot wait to play this year's version.
UFC Undisputed 2009: After reading some of the impressions and watching the videos, this game is definitely for real. Even though I've never been a huge fan of fighting games, there are two coming out this year that have me extremely excited.
MLB '09: The Show: Really...what could these guys do for an encore? We've asked this twice already and the guys at SCEA have delivered big each year. Hopefully that trend continues into 2009.
Gran....wait...
NCAA Football 2010: This year's NCAA was one of my favorites ever. The last time this happened (NCAA 2004) we got one of the worst versions of the franchise ever the following year. Listen EA Tiburon folk....do NOT let this happen again.
MLB Front Office Manager: This game is due out next month and I am hoping it is a contender with OOTP 9. There is a lot that could be done with a title like this..I just hope the effort is there to make this game an All-Star.

LOL @ Gran... from what I hear, GT5 will actually make it out by this time next year. I guess we will have to wait and see. Great List, btw. My anticipated sports titles are MLB09: The Show, Fight Night Round 4, UFC Undisputed 2009, NBA 2K10, Gran Turismo 5, and SuperCar Challenge. Non-sports there is the PS3 exclusives Killzone 2, inFamous, God of War III, and Uncharted 2, to name a few...

I was disappointed with FN3 - I thought the career mode was shallow. I'm hoping Fight Night 4 can bring some depth to the career portion of the game. I think there are a lot of simple touches they can add to make the game more realistic and special. Anyway, I'm looking forward to:

FN4
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Skate 2
Stoked
Punch-Out!
NBA 2k10
RE5
Call of Duty 5
Ghostbusters

Hopefully the following see the light of freakin' day:
Alan Wake
APB
Sadness (Wii)

Not to mention various other, non-sports gaming.

Madden 2010(seriously, who isn't)
NHL 2010
Batman
FN4
UFC 2009

# 9 raidersbball20 @ Dec 22

# 10 Dval7 @ Dec 22

man i cant look forward to ncaa football 2010 cause they made ncaa 09 sweet.. so 2010 should be even better....

Sports Titles Only

1. MLB 09: The Show
2. FIFA 2010
3. NCAA 2010 (If all the BCS stadiums are finally in the game)
4. Madden 2010
5. NBA 2K10
6. PES 2009 (Wii)

I didn't count racing games or a dreamed of return of All Pro Football. I left Fight Night 4 off because I don't beleive it will top Fight Night 3 (PS3). I almost left NBA 2K10 off because I'm sticking with 2K8 until the Collegeg Hoops series returns or I expire, whichever comes first.
