Too many shooters on that list... Geez is that all that comes out these days? =__= '
Grand Theft Auto IV number 1? Oh geez... >_>
Everyone has different tastes I guess (even if some are bad)... Oh well.
| Jammy2 said: Wow, I thought the 360 might stop with the whole generic FPS on-slaught, but alas it seems like it's only just getting warmed up. Seriously, can't developers think of something other then a FPS which slighty deviates from what Halo or Half-Life did so well 5 years ago :/. It was a pretty poor list really, I'm guessing alot of people could read it and be mighty impressed but for me there was no diversity, and any games which tried to show some innovatiion or artistic desire were completely ignored for the most part. For shame GamePro, For Shame. |
I love FPS and the list looks OK, not everybody is a Nintendo Fan that thinks that No more Heros should be on a list, and by the way yes no Imagination, why not start with I don't know the same old reptile kidnapping the same old princes so you have to jump the same old way, that sound very inovative.

Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

| Kyros said: "and it read like their fucking release list from 2007/2008." formulated a bit harshly but not without merit. This year the PC/360/PS3 conglomerate had great new IPs like Mass Effect, Bioshock, Assassin's, Uncharted etc. that gave you the possibility to walk through ancient cities teaming with people, look for the treasure of Sir Francis Drake in a beautiful jungle, save the world in a gigantic galaxy or go through dark creepy underwater worlds that went wrong. And people even dare to complain that non-Nintendo gaming is becoming too similar? I mean Nintendo soon needs to fight with Square for double-digit version numbers. You can say that you like the Nintendo style but the BigN is the epitome of doing the same thing year after year after year after ... Not that it is bad, but the differences between Zelda, Metroid and Mario and their predecessors are mainly doing the same thing but make it a bit better and try to fit in the motion control. |
Mass Effect has the same structure that Bioware games have had since Baldur's Gate II, Bioshock is System Shock 2 underwater, Assassin's Creed is just another spin on sandbox games, and Uncharted is Romancing the Stone the video game.
I'm not saying that any of these games are bad, but don't pretend they're original. True originality is extremely rare, and 95+% of games are evolutionary rather than revolutionary. New characters don't make the story new, and new environments don't change the core gameplay. These game's, like the Nintendo games you mention, are just trying to make last year's effort a little better than last time.
Any list of upcoming games is going to be extremely short on originality. The big problem with this list is that it's also pathetically short on variety.
Edited for grammer.
PS: I love a good shooter as much as the next guy, but jeebus! I only need two good shooters to satisfy my craving to frag, that list is just plain silly.
