What games are you pre-ordering or definitely buying at launch?

As the peak time of year is approaching for big games, what are you certain to be buying as soon as it arrives on the shelves?

I'm going for 3 mainly, doubt I'll be able to afford more so I'm making sure I get my money's worth

Going for Fable 2: Collector's Edition, Gears of War 2 Limited Edition and Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts. Good mix of genres imo.

I was tempted by Fallout 3 but I'm not 100% sure as I'm not generally keen on that kind of RPG, plus with Fable 2 out the week before, I'll be busy with that anyhow. So I reckon I'll get Fallout 3 at a later point.
Similar story with CoD5 really, so close to Gears 2 that I think I'll wait it out or decide once it's come out depending on which of my friends gets it.
Banjo Kazooie is just too hard to resist, especially with a code to get the original on XBLA for free

I am intrigued by Quantum of Solace as it actually seems to be shaping up to be a good game, but I'll wait it out for a price drop or two or Christmas.
