hey rockband is awsome, maybe mario galaxy wasnt as great as everyone thought...(this is what you guys say when a sony game gets the same treatment) If FF XIII would have been at e3 mass effect wont stand a chance.

I think you are getting Nintendo confused with Wii.

First of all, that is what fanboys say. Second of all, Rockband is for both the 360/PS3, and it was shown/playable on the 360. Third, looking at the nominations for best of show, I would have given it to Mass Effect, since game sites mostly nominated games with good graphics, and sites like Newsweek nominated WiiFit.

11 Xbox 360 games FTW!!!  It's just too bad we don't have solid hardware to match the solid games :/ Damn we have an amazing game library though and hopefully the hardware problems get sorted out soon.



^Very true. Lets hope so.

 I got tired of the FF genre since FFVII and mass effect and FFXIII i'm not sure FFXIII would win.... and anyway with a little bit of chance we might see mass effect 2 and FFXIII compete at E3 2008 then we'll see... and maybe other game by then too
