After the amazing year that was 2007, you would expect to see some sort of a lull in PC game releases. Interestingly this doesn’t look to be the case as 2008 is lining up with a massive list of interesting PC games. Right now the wealth of quality games that were released in 2007 should be plenty to sustain you, but game developers worldwide are creating your next PC gaming fix as we speak! So you better make sure you play through your favorite titles of the past year soon, or you might not be ready for the next great game!

What follows below is a list of many PC games scheduled to hit stores worldwide in the coming year. Some games might not be included due to an unclear release date (Duke Nukem Forever, although Forever seems like it might be an indication of the development time) or no official announcement of the name of a particular project (GarageGames new Tribes-like shooter set for late 2008). Furthermore all release dates are for the European market wherever possible, which means they may not coincide with the release dates for other territories.

January certainly wasn’t the most amazing month for PC gamers in recent times, but at least it had more to offer than December did. While the list of impressive games is hardly any longer, their quality certainly is! Some of these games are real gems, others perhaps not as great as they may have looked initially, but all of them should be perfect food for the gamer who has already finished playing the great games of 2007 and is looking for something new. There’s bound to be something to your liking here and even low budget gamers get some loving, as 2 out of the following 4 games are budget priced!

Many new games are released every month, but which of these games are the ones worth buying? That’s what I’ll help you find out, in this monthly recurring series of Most Impressive PC Games. So when a new month begins, be certain to head on over to The Game Drone for a quick rundown of the latest and greatest titles, including links to game demos - where available - so you can give them a try for yourself!

This year will mark the release for many long-awaited mmorpgs, along with a couple of promising potentials scheduled for 2009. With the wide variety of mmo’s currently in development there should be something for everyone, but which is the one you’re looking forward to the most? I’ve picked twelve of the most popular ones for you to vote on, so you can select your favorite and see where it ends relative to all of the others. Will press favorite Warhammr Online take the cake, or can underdogs like Infinity and Spellborn do well too? We’ll find out in a few weeks!

As for the results of the previous poll centered around the question: “The best game of 2007 was…”.  We’ve had 17 voters, of whom 5 have chosen the excellent game Crysis as the best game released last year. Unreal Tournament 3 came in second with 3 votes, closely followed by BioShock and The Orange Box with 2 votes each. Rounding out the list of games that actually received any votes at all were Call of Duty 4, Command & Conquer 3, Sam & Max Season 1, The Witcher and World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade with 1 vote each. Guild Wars: Eye of the North, Lord of the Rings Online, S.T.A.L.K.E.R, Supreme Commander and World in Conflict received none.

That’s right, it looks like Crysis is well appreciated here. Maybe I should do a blog entry on it when I play through it again! Hopefully this year will yield a similarly impressive list of games, where even stellar games like Supreme Commander and World in Conflict don’t get any votes, because there’s just so much else out there. But at least for now, the games of 2007 will certainly do… I’ve yet to play most of the ones I’ve bought even!

After one of the most amazing months in gaming history, December was bound to disappoint. However few would have expected the month of gifts, holidays and enormous profits to be this meager. In truth there haven’t really been any impressive releases this past month, as publishers seemed to take a brief respite from their hail of quality games. As such you’ll find this entry to be particularly short for a Most Impressive PC Games list, but it does feature a couple of decent games that happened to be released in December 2007.

Many new games are released every month, but which of these games are the ones worth buying? That’s what I’ll help you find out, in this monthly recurring series of Most Impressive PC Games.
