Good Game: Fall 2010 Game Guide

Good Game is a weekly column about the latest news in video games and casual gaming.

Fall is always a popular time for game releases, and this year is no exception. Whether you prefer RPGs, first-person shooters, sports games, or playing the guitar, there’s something for everyone.

To help you sift through them all, I’ve created a list of the major releases through November – but first, here’s a breakdown of the types of enemies and weapons you’ll encounter in the new games.

Too bad we can’t transfer weapons between games – if I had a sword in FIFA Soccer 11 I might actually score a goal.

Now on to the release list!

With so many good games coming out – Golden Eye and Disney Epic Mickey on the Wii look interesting, and I already know I want to play Fable III, Fallout New Vegas, Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood, Medal of Honor, Black Ops and Little Big Planet 2 – it’s going to be difficult to decide what to buy!

So I created this poll to find out which games you’re most looking forward to. The results will also give me better idea of what games I should cover in my column in the coming months.
