The following chart of the first ten games on the list also illustrates levels of preorder intent among those who have already indicated general purchase intent:

Notably, ODST is the only Xbox 360-exclusive title on the list; by contrast, the upcoming PlayStation 3 top 20 includes several first-party games exclusive to its platform. (However, a few of the titles on the Xbox 360 list are in development for PC but not PlayStation 3.)

Final Fantasy XIII's inclusion at number four is impressive since, unlike other top 10 games, it is not expected to ship in 2009. The 12th-place Splinter Cell: Conviction, which has a vague fiscal year release period projection, is the only other listed title not publicly planned for 2009.

Further data on the most anticipated PlayStation 3 and Wii games will be published on Gamasutra in the coming days.

Expected but I thought this was cool...

thats because its the only good game that is coming out this year.

Halo3 ODST and Modern Warfare will do crazy numbers this xmas.

But according to your text, Mass Effect 2 is shipping in 2009?! Wasn't that a game for 2010?

Wow....Tekken Made it up there....

I'm pretty sure Microsoft doesn't really care if it's also on the PC

one question guys? is halo: ODST a full game or is it like an expansion ? or is it something else?.

 it has a campain that is like 4 hours long, it ships with ALL the halo 3 maps and will not be the full price of a new game....hope that helps...

There hasnt been enough data availabl to come to those conclusions toasty...its a sleeper, no one knows what it is yet or what it looks like.

I want ODST and ME 2. Give me those two games and i could almost care less about the rest of these games
