Forums - Microsoft - What does MS have in store for 2008? Lionhead drops a mini-bomb

RSEagle on 20 December 2007

I think Microsoft needs to buy or create a couple more studios to flesh out their lineup.

It's a brand new IP that they've been working on for at least 3 years now.

well fable 2 is practically the only reason i got a 360 so i'm excited. not sure what else they have up their sleeves but i'd be interested to hear more about it.

Black & White 3 please!

I'd be so happy! (and make it on PC and not some lousy 360 game where it would control horribly)

I'd also like to see a The Movies 2, the original was really creative and great.

But, it's probably not gonna be B&W3 or TM2 :(

My guess is it's gonna be that weird Dimitri thing they've been working on.

Dungeon Keeper 3??

ohpleaseohplease

(Nah, not going to happen, but hey, I can hope.)



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

Unity? Jeff Minter Was working with Lionhead to create a game called "Unity" for GameCube. It was canceled but perhaps it may be revived?

Ha its pretty unlikely but one can always hope right? I really was looking forward to that game.

Yes the good thing for MS and Nintendo, is they really haven't spoke about all their huge exclusives going into 2008, especially unannounced ones or TBA release dates ones. While Sony and it's 2nd party has pretty much given us the heads up on what's to come.

Leaves more of a satisfying mystery that could generate extreme hype. But I can't wait to see what Nintendo's lineup will be for 2008 on the Wii, as we already have quite a few big games from them coming out such as Super Smash Bros Brawl, Wii Music, Wii Fit, Mario Kart Wii, and Disaster: Day of Crisis. So will be interesting.

Same for MS. Hopefully they can find a way to fit Banjo Kazooie 3 in there.
