Yeah, I don't follow PC at all so I decided to keep this consoles only.

I didn't care about sales for the list...or the reviews only. More like...games with hype...yeah thats it :)

2 console games on that list however should be added ...Mafia 2 and Far Cry 2. Mafia 2 is 2009 tho so Far Cry 2 only I guess...

Is SPORE coming out for consoles?

There's going to be some SPORE spin-offs for Wii and DS, but that's about it (the Wii version won't even come out this year). But you should definitely add RAGE to the list though, since it's developed by id Software.

Age of Conan is coming to 360, but 99% of the game's hype is for the PC version. Project Offset (also 360) unfortunately doesn't have any hype, but from the footage I've seen the game is going to be So.Fucking.Awesome.

From a quick glance, I would add Starcraft 2 (PC), Infinite Undiscovery (360), Red Alert 3 (PC).

Yeah RAGE should be there if it were a 2008 release :)

Project offset I have to look up...one sec.

Red Alert 3 and Stracraft 2 I've added despite being PC as they will surely come to consoles plus even on PC only they will be massive.

 I think you just contradicted yourself...



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

Tekken 6!

WHY DOES EVERYONE ALWAYS FORGET TEKKEN 6???

You list Tales of Vesperia, but don't list Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the new world. They will both be about the same in my opinion.

Also, Wii Fit should be there, unless you consider it an 07 game or since it is out in Europe, but I'm assuming you mean NA, since your in Canada, so it should be on the list, even if it is there for only a couple weeks.

Monster Hunter 3 is going to be out in 09 last I heard (no solid info, only going off of memory, so someone could easily prove me wrong)

Mario Superstar Baseball will probably sell better than strikers, so I would consider it big.

Also, Sky Crawlers has the potential to be big, as it is made by the same people who made Ace Combat. Not much is known, so it is to early to call it a big game in my opinion.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Valkryia Chronicles and Tekken 6 are added but the rest...I am not sure. After E3, I think we will have a better idea about some...like Bionic Commando...but the rest are prety sketchy at this point.

Like I know Socom is coming out but it hasn't really blown me away yet...also based on Socom's track record, I'm not too sure it belongs in the hyped games list.

Wipeout will probably be great as well but its kind of like Ridge Racer at this point...not much excitement is generated by them as they don't bring too much new to the table.

I don't think Yakuza is coming in America...
