Great new Games for Windows titles coming soon

Games console-owners beware – PC games are becoming more and more popular right now. Just recently, the Games for Windows title Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures sold a whopping one million copies in just the first week of its release.
 
And Microsoft has just announced a list of Games for Windows games to be released this year, many of which are going to be some of the best PC releases we’ve seen.
 
For instance, the sequel to Call of Duty 4 – Call of Duty: World at War – is coming out this autumn. Actually, it’s more of a prequel because World at War will be going back to the game’s WWII roots – the conflict in the Pacific to be exact. It’ll also feature four-player co-operative action, so you and your friends can play the entire story together.
 
Then there’s the long-anticipated Ghostbusters: The Video Game, Crysis Warhead, LEGO Batman, Kung Fu Panda, and much more.
 
Check out the full list:
 
Call of Duty: World at War

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 2

LEGO Batman: The Videogame

Ghostbusters: The Video Game

Kung Fu Panda

Crysis Warhead

And the rest:

Space Siege
WALL-E
Sid Meier’s Civilization IV: Colonization
Bionic Commando
Battlestations: Midway
Battlestations: Pacific
Borderlands
Devil May Cry 4
Quantum of Solace
Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa™ Video Game
Mafia® II
Project Origin
Red Faction: Guerilla
Saints Row 2
Zoo Tycoon 2: Ultimate Collection

No news on which of these will be Games for Windows – LIVE titles (these ones will allow PC gamers to battle online against PC and Xbox 360 gamers, through the LIVE online service), although don’t count it out. Call of Duty: World at War is absolutely begging to be turned into one: it’s got the right ingredients to become the first genuinely good worldwide multiplayer game.
 
What we do know is that things are really looking up for PC gamers, so if you were ever in doubt about the genre’s longevity, especially when stacked up against the Xbox 360 and the Nintendo WII, then worry no more.
