For me, It was likely SvR 2006. Waited for that so long and played it 22 hours straight when I got it.

Shenmue 2 or Sonic Adventure. The latter was a slight let down, but only due to the sheer brilliance of Sonic 3+K but Shenmue 2.... Wow...

Zelda Majora's Mask, Perfect Dark, and Resident Evil 4.
Didn't really start buying a lot of games on release day until this generation of consoles but those three were the ones I anticipated the longest.

Probably Street Fighter IV most recently. Watched so much video in preparation. I also remember nearly going crazy waiting for the next NFL Street franchise to come out. I love arcade football games like you wouldn't believe.
Currently, the idea of a new You Don't Know Jack has me very impatient. Barely any information on it so far.

Probably Beatles Rock Band.

wcw mayhem :shifty:
i thought it was the greatest thing in the world that i got it the day before it came out, only to be horribly, horribly disappointed
Funky Fly
11-11-2010, 04:39 PM
Yeah, if we're talking all time, OoT, No Mercy, SF4 easily.
March 8th tho. Dragon Age is my favourite game of all time. Worried since basically none of the first cast is returning in any major way.

I remember being stupidly hyped for WM2000. Was even marking out over videos of the Godfather doing the Ho Train.
Funky Fly
11-11-2010, 04:45 PM
Yeah, really was hyped for all of THQ's N64 wrestling games.
Rammsteinmad
11-11-2010, 04:52 PM
Probably either the second Smackdown game, or WCW Mayhem.
Ultra Mantis
11-11-2010, 05:24 PM
FFX easily, I have never wanted a game so much. Played through the demo disc far too many times.
Vietnamese Crippler
11-11-2010, 07:23 PM
Right now, it's Gran Turismo 5.
Before that, I have no idea. It was probably Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
PapaGeorgio
11-11-2010, 07:51 PM
May be Ghostbusters, at least lately that is last one. Was excited for wrestling games on N64 and that I guess, but can't recall a specific one I went SOOOO crazy for.
LoDownM
11-11-2010, 08:49 PM
Before it was Red Dead Redemption. Right now it's Dragon Age 2 and Star Wars The Old Republic.

11-11-2010, 09:44 PM
of All time it probably has to be No Mercy, I was also really amped for SSBB and GTA:SA

Probably either Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 or Gran Turismo 4.
I played GT4 so much, but I probably haven't put 2 hours into MUA 2 yet. I think MUA2 is the only game I have ever preordered, and I rushed to the store to get it the day it came out. Got home, popped it in right away and it just was deflating. It isn't bad, but it isn't what I had it built up in my mind to be I suppose. Especially after all the time I put into the first one. Even when they rereleased the DLC I got it thinking I would play, and I started it long enough to check out the characters and cut it off and never went back. I keep putting other games in front of it thinking I'll get this out of the way quickly then get MUA2 done.

I feel you. They upped the graphics and dumbed down everything else. Typical Activision.
Recently it was Batman: Arkham Asylum. I read all the previews, watched all the videos, and had myself convinced that this was not only going to be the best Batman game ever, but it was going to be a great game period. I definitely skipped class to go buy this thing first thing in the morning and then played it non-stop all day long and was not disappointed with it at all.
When I was a kid it was WCW vs. nWo: Revenge for N64. I and my friend were unbelievably hyped about the idea of being able to play as Goldberg and members of the Wolfpack. That game was awesome too.

Ocarina of Time, without a doubt.
Recently would have been NBA Jam for the Wii.
Sepholio
11-12-2010, 01:17 PM
Yeah I was definitely hyped for Ocarina of Time too. Pre-ordered it like 10 seconds after it was announced so I could get the limited edition cartridge.
Oh, and to actually name a game that I super anticipated that is already out now, FFX, Diablo 2, GTA4, MGS4...those and a few others

New Vegas. I didn't play Fallout 3 until about 6 months ago and when I did play it, I played it for like 2 weeks straight and beat the game and all the DLC's. I couldn't wait to play more. I was not disappointed, tho I was not that impressed.

WWF Attitude, I remember seeing screen shots in magazines and was extremely looking forward to it, it was the game I just couldnt wait to play.
Team Sheep
11-14-2010, 05:00 AM
Probably Smackdown Just Bring It. It came out on my 11th Birthday and I was getting that and a PS2 so the month of November in 2001 was probably the longest month of my life waiting for that.
#BROKEN Hasney
11-14-2010, 07:28 AM
Man, you guys looking forward to Mayhem/Attitude/Just Bring It must have been gutted when you got your hands on the game :'(
Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate 2.
Oh, and a few of the FIFA series.
Probably was Need for Speed: Most Wanted. Lived up to the hype and more.
Right now? Dragon Age 2
Over the course of forever? Anything made by Blizzard.
Probable pipe dream? A real sequel to Final Fantasy Tactics.

A new Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic. That was until I found out it was going to be an mmo, and PC only. :(
