Every indication we have is that GeoW 2 WILL be out this year and that FF and GT wont be. And though I need to check, i'm pretty sure i put F3 as probably not making 2008. If i havent i will change it. I mean there are people in this thread telling me that there is no doubt Killzone will be AAA as it has a high budget (despite the pathetic (compared to AAA titles) original) and im being accussed of bias? And honestly. Do you really think that Sony's new IP lineup looks as promising as MS's. Though at the same time, I do concede that that was the subjective part of my post. Ill add in an IMO! |
Every indication? The game hasn't even been announced! The only "indicators" that we have so far consist of nothing more than EGM rumors and SurferGirl antics. EGM also said that God of War 3 would hit the same time as Gears 2 (Holiday '08), and just weeks later GoW3 was confirmed for 2009, showing the validity of that rumor.
As for Killzone, I think it could go either way, though I am somewhat optimistic.
About the new IPs, from what I've seen, yes, I do think that Sony's new IPs look superior to MS's. However, I have not seen even close to all the new IPs for each side, and my view is probably pretty slanted since I keep track of the ps3's exclusives far more than the 360's (since I don't own one), so I know more of the new ps3 IPs that are out there.
I am interested in these new IPs for the ps3 this year:
LittleBigPlanet
White Knight Story
Valkyrie of the Battlefield (which probably won't make it out this year)
inFamous (probably 2009)
Wardevil (probably 2009)
Others that I know about, but don't particularly care for:
Haze (meh, and it's probably only timed exclusive)
Heavy Rain (probably 2009)
Afrika
BlazeBlue
The only new IPs for the 360 that I can think of are as follows:
Lost Odyssey (which has already had it's impact in Japan)
Infinite Undiscovery
Too Human
Alan Wake
Cry On (2009, at best)
Given those two lists, which would you choose? :P
Of course, I'd be quite willing to hear about the other new IPs that MS has on the way.
