Welcome to Coffee Talk! Let’s start off the day by discussing whatever is on your (nerd chic) mind. Every morning I’ll kick off a discussion and I’m counting on you to participate in it. If you’re not feelin’ my topic, feel free to start a chat with your fellow readers and see where it takes you. Whether you’re talking about videogames, the Knicks/Nets giving fans false hope with their fluke 2014 stars, figuring out how to review luggage, or the glory of broccoli, Coffee Talk is the place to do it.
2014 should be an excellent year for videogames. There should be more mature (in terms of development) games for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Wii U. The Steam Box is a potentially industry-changing product that will be out this year. Mobile games keep getting better and better. Put it all together and we should have all kinds of gaming awesomeness. My question for you on this fine day is this: what’s your most wanted videogame of 2014?
As for me, the answer couldn’t be easier. I’m all about Dragon Age: Inquisition. I loved the first game and enjoyed the second game way more than most. Hell, I’m even enjoying the mobile game Heroes of Dragon Age, despite its numerous flaws. I’m just heavily invested in the world of Dragon Age (yes, I’ve read some of the books) and as a lifelong fan of BioWare, I can’t wait to see where the story goes from here. In my head, the game will be a near-perfect mix of great storytelling, deep gameplay, and unforgettable characters. Dragon Age: Inquisition is easily my most wanted videogame of 2014 and I suspect that it will end up being my 2014 game of the year.
How about you, dear RPadholics? What games are you looking forward to the most this year? What’s your most wanted videogame of 2014? Please let me know in the comments section.
I have no clear cut favorite. I have games for Wii U, 3DS, PC, and Xbone that all have my interest.
I’m actually most excited about the Oculus Rift.
Obligatory list alluded to:
Donkey Kong (Wii U)
Bravely Default (3DS)
Walking Dead Season 2 (PC)
Titanfall (Xbone)
Loved that Bravely Default Fighting Fairy is on your list!
Infamous: second son. Watch Dogs
Slightly off the subject, I REALLY want a steambox, but I am frightened by how much it may cost :/
On topic, and this is easy. The last game that I will ever buy for my ps3. Dark Souls 2.
Supposedly there will be many different configurations. I’m considering a cheap one that plays indie and Valve titles for my wife. Otherwise I’ll just stick with my PC.
If you have a PC sitting around that is no longer in use you can load up SteamOS or play in big pic mode to get an idea of what it will be sans the special controller.
South Park: Stick of Truth
Thief
That is all.

I have a strong feeling that you’re going to be very happy with this game. :)
Which game? Thief or Stick of Truth? Regardless, don’t get my hopes up. It always leads to disappointment. I’m expecting every game I play this year to be utter and total crap unless proven otherwise. Hype for games never results in anything good for the consumer.

Yes, Stick of Truth. Get your hopes up! :p
I have no clue what is even supposed to be out this year, so I have nothing in particular to look forward to. I’m open to being persuaded by commercials and trailers.
That’s what happens when you’re too busy going to work and unintentionally killing celebrities.
I doubt it’s unintentional. Too bad his powers of death don’t work on politicians.
