    When's the next blockbuster game out? And what is it?

    Alot of the games released these days seem a bit...well, blah. AOE3, Total War 2, Doom 3,4,5 , Half-Life2 add-ons, BF2 add-ons, hundreds of third person shooters etc

    Is there anything truly ground shaking that's due to come out in the near future / summer? And is there ever going to be a Command & Conquer game?

    Yes that Crysis looks incredible.

    The next Total War game is not exactly a non-event either!

    Prey or TES-Oblivion! Both going to be groundbreaking in both of the different genres they come from.

    I must admit I'm looking forward to Sin but then again its not very ground breaking tbh. But it won't stop me enjoying it one lil bit.
