I'm really excited for Borderlands, although it sounds like I may be the only one...

GTA4 is all I really need.

I'm considering Burnout Paradise, as well, though.

Prototype looks to be promising, but after using the same type of control system in Assassin's Creed, I'm hoping that it's similar or better, and it's storyline is a bit more involved.

@ Sharpblade...Ass handed to you? Dude I only mentioned the EXCLUSIVE titles, and the only games you mentioned for the 360 launch year that were actually from that year were LOL KAMEO? Lets stop there. Dude, you said KAMEO. COD was sick. The rest of the year was dedicated to Halo 2 though. You should know that. Back to my ass handed to me in the launch year, Oblivion, NBA 2K8, R6 Vegas, COD4, Assassins Creed, Motorstorm. Still can't get over the fact that you said KAMEO. You may as well had said King Kong. Matter of fact, I gave you my first year lineup (I'm sure I forgot something), now keep in mind I waited in line for a launch 360, and have had 3 of them, so don't try to sell me any bullshit. BTW I TOO was an XBOX1 fanboy. I remember how awesome Return to Castle Wolfenstein online was. (BTW the PS3 is supposed to get a new version of it later) I ALSO remember how Fable was supposed to kill all and was just "OK". You tell which launch titles for the 360 add up to that list. As far as COD, it IS the best console shooter on ANY system, but it STILL doesn't deliver the single player that Uncharted does. As far as game rankings, that shit is political anyway. Halo received perfect scores in game rankings, and I think you even know better than that. If that was the case, COD4 wouldn't have KILLED it.

For the other guy, Lair was bad, but it had no where NEAR the hype that the Halo machine generated, and it too was a pole smoker. I'm SURE you had Halo on you're list. To be honest, Lair didn't make mine.

Bottomline here is I don't know what you guys have been playing...oh, Ninja Gaiden was sick too. I also had the Xbox 1 version. The ARE differences. But maybe I'm missing something. Tell you what, I have Bioshock, Halo 3, and Mass Effect. Give me a reason to pull my 360 back out and I'll see you on Live...if it's back up yet. You saw my list of games there Gayblade. Your first list was seriously flawed in regards to launch titles...AND you said Kameo. LOL! I'll give you another chance to take a shot at me, but hurry up. I still need to finish Uncharted...

Kameo was an amazing game. EGM gave Kameo and Drake's Uncharted Fortune the same score, go figure.

Oh yeah- every PS3 game you said were practically multi platform.

Bioshock's single player is MUCH better then Drake's Uncharted Fortune, and there is no counter arguement.

I'd probably have to go with Metal Gear Solid 4 with Killzone 2 in a close second. Then again...LittleBigPlanet and Home is coming out.

Actually, I think I'm anticipating Resistance 2 more than I am Killzone 2 just because Resistance was such a great game and Insomniac is the ish. I'm also wondering if Koei will make a new Romance of the Three Kingdoms this year, that would be cool.

I'm also phsyched about Metal Gear Online, Tekken 6, MotorStorm 2, GT5, InFamous, L.A. Noire, Final Fantasy XIII, Socom, White Knight, Hot Shots Golf 5, Haze, MLB 08: The Show, SingStar, Jak & Daxter, and Wipeout HD.

I'm really intigued by games like Getaway, Heavy Rain, Eight Days, and The Agency.

The multiplatform games I'm amped about are GTAIV and I really hope Dead Space is great too.

Actually, if God of War III is announced to come out this year, then that will beat out all the other games I just listed.

I really want Halo Wars, and Too Human. However my number 1 game for 2008 (if it even comes out in 2008), would have to be Banjo Kazooie 3. Rare knows how to make a damn great platformer, and I do not expect this game to suck at all. I love all Rare games, and they are probally the biggest reason I own a 360.

Flame Kameo got a 7.2, UC got an 8. ...it doesn't matter. As far as exclusives, you may have seen in an earlier post that Warhawk, Heavenly Sword, Motorstorm, Ninja Gaiden, Resistance, there are others, but I can stop there. The launch year for the 360 can't compete w/ those titles. hell I'll even let Kameo slide (even though that shit sucked), you still can't give me 3 more NO SHIT GOOD games. As far as Bioshock having the better single player, its up for debate. There's ALWAYS an arguement apparently, because you're trying to compare the PS3 launch year to the 360 launch year, which isn't even fucking close. UC is NOT AN FPS GAME. I'm burned out on those for a while. For me UC is better for now. I guess I can see the arguement though...

the new double fine game, i think it's metal legend...cut someones head off with an axe then play a guitar lick over their corpse...doesn't get much more rock'n'roll than that.

Condemned 2 and Silent Hill 5 (though I may get SH for my PS3.)

I loves me some Silent Hill.

My most antcipated game is COD4 online.

Yeah, it came out last year but MS can't provide any kind of stable environment to play it on at normal hours so I figure by the Q4 of 2008 they might have done something?

Probably pipedreams I know.

Oh, and in reality, is Alan Wake on for 2008 or is that still a "coming soon".

Pirates of the burning sea. Yeah, its not 360 but I want it anyhow.

Forgot a few so here they are..
Too Human
Left for Dead
Fallout 3
KUF.
Omega 5
End War
Legendary the box
Project Origin

Yo, Last I checked Both Drake's uncharted and Hevenly Sword got less than stellar reviews from EVERYONE, and nothing on the POS3 got perfect scores accross the boards like Bio Shock. Granted what reviewers ultimatly think dosn't matter but, those games got the scores they deserved, just like LAIR....Quit lying to yourself sony is over. When Blueray falls so shall the playstation, I guarentee it. I'll tell you why, because Microsoft, Toshiba, Paramount Pictures, Disney and a few other players that decide to remain hidden till the final blow, want it to fail. Its unneeded technology the majority can live without.

I am really looking foreward to Metal Gear Solid 4, the next Gears of War, Halo Wars, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the remake of Turok, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Indiana Jones game, Iron Man game, Darksiders: The Wrath of War, Grand Theft Auto IV, Prototype, and Borderlands. Im also just hoping that they come out with another Marvel Ultimate Alliance type game, another KOTOR, and the rumored Halo 4 and Star Wars Battlefront 3 games.

GTA 4, can’t wait for it any longer was suppose to come out in October but they post pone it thanks to the compatibility issues the ps3 was having. Now we have to wait till March, but I guess its not bad id rather have them come out with a game that works then a game that is going to crap out on ya.
