So lets see... The xbox benifits from going multiplat on these games and thus gets a variety of pc/console games whilst the PS3 does not. I would perfer the former not the latter. The great strength of the Xbox360! Glad you found it!

Lottsa "TBA" to be a 2008 release. Well anyway, couple of those might be sleeper hits. So I say why not. Buy em if it's good.

Speaking of which... Same with Eternal Sonata but I think I'm regreting things now. I've hold on to my money for too long. Hopefully It's out before 2008 ends.

Nice list, but "Crash Time-TBA 2008" is already available in Germany

The remainder of 2008 looks like a good year for Microsoft and their shiny Xbox. I think that banjo three could be a potential return to form for the once great RARE, I will certainly check that game out.

What you have to bear in mind though is that the 360 need games in order to differentiate itself from the PS3 or it will continue to lose ground. This list is what could potentially pull this off.

It is a shame that the japanese market is not one the 360 aoppeals too though, otherwise this list would be twice as long.

Besides GTA IV and Gears of War 2 there are no console selling titles out for the 360 in 2008.

Apart from Banjo Kazooie 3, Ninja Gaiden 2 and Fable 2. 

Your absolutely right. 

I think you left out - Left 4 dead, made by valve means a good chance its an AAA title anyways. Oh yea and theres always the possibility of Xmote controls on Star Wars - Force Unleashed.

Besides the whole idea of - "Console selling titles" is kinda silly, all good games help to improve the value of a console. They all help!

Yeah...360 needs system seller like Grand Turisomo Prologue...lol.  I think this list provide ALOT of catalyst for anyone to consider the 360, if they are limited on $$$ to spend on gaming....period!  At this point, the major thing to sell system (in the current financial downturn in the US) is pricing and value for those limited consumer $$$.  Microsoft hasn't lowered prices in the US because they AREN'T losing money on every console, and the system are still selling well...tracking better than last year, btw.  I think a price cut is coming this late spring/summer ofr the US, and another one for the holiday season.

 I wouldn't consider NG2 a system seller in the slightest. It is a similar style game to DMC, but not as popular. Remember the boost the PS3 and 360 got from DMC4? Pretty much nothing, apart from a small PS3 boost in Japan. NG2 will sell well to people who already own a 360, because it is likely to be AAA. But it is way to hardcore to sell systems. 

It is a very long time since the last banjo game, plus it has changed console. It pretty much makes it a new IP (apart from the hardcore Banjo fans). Unless it is as good as the last two Banjo games, I don't see it moving many consoles. Given Rare's recent performance, it is very unlikely to be as good as the other two (I hope I am wrong though). Also Platformers has become a niche genre. Just think how few platformers have come out this gen. Ratchet, SMG, Kameo... Although this could work in Banjo's favour, it indicates to me that Platformers isn't the important genre it once was (sadly). 

Fable 2 is definetly a system seller, no question about that, although I think you in particular are overestimating it :P. As long as they don't announce a PC version before it comes out for 360, it will sell systems.
