You never know what can happen. In 2006, the PS3 looked like it would dominate in 2007 with an unbeatable lineup.

But a lot of things can happen in the space of a year. Games get delayed, shifted, canceled. Many new games are announced during the course of the year. Some highly anticipated games flop. Other unknown games become smash hits.

I can't remember who said this and I'm not saying it as well...but this is the best I can say it:

Future games are always better than the current ones, because the imagination can create better games than could ever exist.

it should be hands down that 2008 is gonna be better for the ps3 than what it had in 07

To those questioning what I said about GTA4...

I completely acknowledge that the "core" game will be available on the PS3, however a Rockstar representative stated when asked that the 360 version will be needed for the "complete GTA4 experience."

does it really matter though??? im willing to bet that most wont finish the "complete GTA4 disc version" i know i wont.. let alone pay for the extra episodes... its good to have episodic content but dont act like everyone is thinking to themselves " oh my god i gotta get that episodic content" alot of people just like exploring the worlds and killing people.. and doing some of the missions here and there.. most of the people i know anyway..

Apart from Halo 3 (being hard to beat on the 360), 2008 will be better for basically every console. The Wii & PS3 will both start to really take off, and the 360 will continue building a library of awesome titles.

As long as the industry keeps posting record figures, every year has a good chance of beating the previous one.

And one game to look out for - The Getaway for the PS3. Sony's answer to GTA unless I am mistaken. Might be a 2009 release though.

Love to see the next iteration of the DS hardware - but it might not hit until 2009 (i.e. compatible with the DS) - rather than the DS II (which could be anything).

Ppl like Bonafide are ignoring the pure brilliance and diversity of the 360's line up. It has JRPG's, WRPG's, Shooters, Platformers, RTS's, and it will undoubtedly have a bunch of party games of reasonable quality from Rare etc. On top of that it has the complete GTA4 experience and other sandbox games.

The PS3 is relying on four games above all others in the year 2008 (5 if FFXIII makes it in). GT5 (which will be great, so this one has no catch), MGS4 which despite all fanboy whining is GOING to come to the 360 unless Sony pays a crapload for exclusivity, Killzone 2 which comes of the back of a tedious and mediocre sequel from an unproven developer and LBP which I think will be very good but is intrinsically hardcore.

As far as I know there are no high profile WRPG's coming to the PS3 next yr, but the 360 had Fable 2.

I also don't know if the PS3 has any platformer's next year, but the 360 has Kameo 2 and of course, the highly anticipated BK3.

Shooter wise the 360 gets UT3 next year as well as Haze (probably), Alan Wake (from the makers of Max Payne), and then all the other multi-plats that will inevitably come out, as well as the probable launch of GEARS OF WAR 2.

RTS the 360 will get more because of its affinity with the PC, not to mention Halo Wars.

Finally in the realm of JRPG's, the 360 gets Lost Odyssey, Cry On, Infinite Undiscovery. This looks brilliant compared to the PS3's White Knight Story and er......

Edit: Both consoles will also get Devil May Cry 4 in the action/adventuregenre. They also get GoW3 (PS3) and Too Human (360) so they are pretty even on this front

what the hell is this guy talking about??? i have not stated one thing about the 360 on any of my posts!? Meh what am i doing wasting 5 seconds on a little kid..

Actually you did. The general theme of your posts in this thread has been trying to instill your belief that the PS3's lineup is superior not only to its own 2007 lineup, but to the 360's 2008 lineup as well. Thankyou however for implying that I am stupid, and resorting to calling me a little kid, because it says more about you than my support for the 360's lineup will ever say about me.

actually i would have to disagree with you.. the general theme of his posts were directed towards GTA... i didnt see anywhere on there where he said the 360's lineup was worse... even though i would like that sucker to come to the sony side of things that bum is as fair to both consoles as they come.. LOL Bonafide you loser LOL

does this actually need a response ?? NO?? no.. good
