Slim Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Just finished probably the densest period of superb games releases I've ever known, with Orange box, Halo3, Mass Effect, Mario Galaxy, Metroid 3, Bioshock, cod4 and Crysis all coming out within a few weeks of each other. So what now? I've still got to play a bunch of those games, but I always like to have something to look forward to, so what's on your must buy list for 2008? The wii has the strongest lineup next year for me, Super Smash Bros nd Mario Kart look nice. Okami looks like it'll rule on the wii too. Other than that theres No More Heroes, Fragile, Animal Crossing, a Kirby Game, A Pikmin game, Kid Icarus, Samba Di Amigo, Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles, Tales of Symphonia, Dragonquest: Swords, Disaster, Project O, Eternity's Child. Oh fatal frame. And I imagine wii harvest moon will find some love in our house too. Basically looking for the wii to fill my freaky jap game hunger to compliment the 360 and PC. I recon the wii's got a much stronger 2008 lineup than the 360. I can't think of anything exclusive on the 360 apart from Mercenaries 2 and Ninja Gaiden 2? Cross platform there's GTA 4, Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Burnout all looking superb. On the PC, the big realease for me next year will be Starcraft 2, but again I can't think of much else on the way? Then I'll have to try and avoid the temptation to buy the next warcraft expansion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modey Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 One game i'm looking forward to next year is Alan wake on the 360. Alone in the dark is also out next year and then there is the small matter of GTA IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slim Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 Comedy Duke4 Option. It wasn't that long ago that you could say Team Fortress 2 and laugh about it. Month after release, no buggers playing it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I agree the Wii will have the strongest line up. It also has one hell of a lot of Nintendo franchises to launch,so much scope for so many decent games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ai_Droid Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 [*]Metal Gear Solid 4 [*]Killzone 2 I'm not ps3 bashing, honest, but MGS3 was a bit of a mixed bag and MGS2 was bloody awful, remember those half hour phone conversations, urgh. Twin snakes pretty average, and the psp outings bloody awful. Killzone was also a very average game. I'm not sure why there's so much anticipation for these two when they've been so pap in the past. [*]Final Fantasy XIII This ones going to be a killer, bah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slinkydevil Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Killzone was also a very average game. I loved Killzone on the PS2 - guess it's all a matters of opinion tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
