^ So what do you think of 2008 now?



fgsduilfgasuklwgefidslzfgb4yiogwefhawi4fbielat5gy240bh3e

i think that the PS3's line up will be better than its 2007 one, for the very simple reason that the PS3's 2007 line-up could be beaten by anything other than a dreamcast-style system shutdown.

I think the 360's 2008 line-up will beat its 2007 one simply due to its depth, variation and combination of high-quality sequels and new IP.



starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

PS3 and Wii will have much better line-ups. I am not sure about the 360 because I have not researched the games for it but I would guess yes. Certainly, the sports, racing, fighting, kids, and RPG games will be better on all consoles. Prices should go down for all of the systems. Wii will get WiiWare and other new channels, PS3 will get Home, and 360 will get something similar. Total console and game sales in 2008 will blow away 2007 sales. The only thing I see slowing down is DS sales, and that is if their are not new bundles and colors or a price cut. I say this because I think sales have to slow down some in Japan if nothing major is done (they have just been so strong).



currently playing: Desktop Tower Defense (PC), Puzzle Quest (DS), Trauma Center New Blood (Wii), Guitar Hero III (Wii), Ghost Squad (Wii), Actraiser (SNES), Donkey Kong County (SNES), The Legend of Zelda (NES), Kirby's Adventure (NES)

will play next: Paper Mario (N64), Golden Axe II (Sega), NiGHTS (Wii)

lost odyssey, too human, fable 2, banjo-kazooie 3, GTA IV, GEOW 2, Cry On, Halo Wars, World in Conflict, MGS4 (cheeky starcraft), Ninja Gaiden 2 and a bunch of others that i can't remember....so yeah, 360 2008 will PAWN 360 2007


As for PS3 2008.....er......did PS3 2007 cast a shadow????

Edit: This is a copy from one of my previous posts. 360 2008 PAWNS the already fantastic 360 2007

Burnout Paradise, Devil May Cry 4, Silent Hill 5, Soul Caliber 4, Resident Evil 5, Tow Clancy's Endwar, Fallout 3, MGS4 (it'll be on it by end of 2008), Unreal Tournament 3, The Last Remnant, Saints Row 2, Haze.

Exlusive
Grand Theft Auto 4 (complete game exclusive), Ninja Gaiden 2, Fable 2, Banjo Kazooie 3, Alan Wake, Too Human, Lost Odyssey, Cry On, Gears of War 2, Splinter Cell: Conviction, Halo Wars, World in Conflict, Infinite Discovery, Kameo 2, Next Perfect Dark.

 GTA4 exclusivity is 2 seperate DLC's for individual missions which will cost $$

And listing MGS4, Haze, and even UT3 should all have a big * next to them, since those are PS3 games.

Whether or not those ever come to the 360, The simple fact that you would list those on your 360 list shows how far you are reaching.

Enjoy those other games, I am sure they will be good.

To answer the question though, All consoles will have a better 2008 than 2007, even inspite of far reaching lists such as these.

On gta4 have they stated long the extra downloadable content was gonna be?? i must be a complete dummy but i just realized by reading your post that that extra content isnt gonna be free.. i rarely beat a gta game completely so it wont matter what version i get whether it be ps3 or 360...

@Bonafide732, about 10 hours each from the last i heard.  I would imagine the price would be about $25 dollars too.

Plus RFOM 2 is coming out in 08, one of the best games for the PS3.

my only request for part 2 is make it online co-op instead of just offline.. other than that the first one rocked

08 will be a another great year for games but not as good as 07 in my opinion. Mass Effect, Halo 3 and Mario are amazing games that are better that anything coming out in 08 in my opinion. Not to mention all the other awesome games comin out around Christmas.
