I'm really blown away by how into this people are. I mean no offense to anyone, but it just seems so weird for adults to be so enthusiastically anticipating a video game.
Maybe I need to play more video games or something...

I'm 22 and have played video games my entire life. I love it... and I know a lot of older adults (40-50 years old) who are avid gamers as well.

Pick up Call of Duty or some squad based team game (like rainbow six series). Play with your friends using Roger Wilco or some other communication app. You'll then realize why adults play these games.
Nothing like telling your buddies to provide cover fire while you rush toward enemy bunkers to bring out the madness.

Well, in fairness, you DID read 83 posts of this thread first, only to then post this. You must be SOMEWHAT interested. Personally, when a thread topic doesn't interest me, I don't even open it.
On topic: I'm hoping for Starcraft 2.

Video gaming has come a long way since the days of me being a kid when Frogger was considered an awesome game.
Looking at those games now, yah I can understand why adults had nothing to do with these games. They didn't require much skill and thinking.
The gaming industry now is crazy the games just take alot more intelligence now. Hence why I'm still an avid gamer.
