Now that Microsoft has Unveiled their 2008 Lineup 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago
|
|

What do you guys think?
Personally, I'm pretty much interested in everything they've announced.
I'll definitely purchase Ninja Gaiden II (Ninja Gaiden on xbox is my favorite game of all time), Too Human, Fable 2, and Gears of War 2. I'll definitely gamefly Viva Pinata (2) and Banjo Kazoiee (never played this series).
I would like to hear more about Splinter Cell Conviction (one of my fav series) and the GTA IV DLC (after finishing GTA IV I really want to play more single player content).

Ninja Gaiden II cannot be released soon enough. I need to play that game.
I'm also excited about SC: Conviction, but there's so little info about it since they delayed it.
Of Gears 2 is gonna kill in Nov. I've got no high powered PC so I'm chomping at the bit to take down a Brumack(sp).

I'm a little excited for Ninja Gaiden 2. I'm definitely going to take off work for Gears 2.

Yeah, I never preorder games, but i'm extremely close to preordering gow2, and i too will be requesting a day (or two) off on the release.
I'll probably buy ng2 a few months after it's been out, same for fable 2. I like the SC series, but i'm actually going to wait for reviews on it before i decide for sure.

E3 is still coming, we may not have seen all the announcements.
I could care less about Ninja Gaiden 2 but Gears 2 is my hotness. If Too Human gets good reviews, I'm all over that as well.

Gears 2, Flashpoint 2 & Fallout 3 are the must gets i think. most likely i'll pick up COD 5, Prize Fighter/Facebreaker/Fight Night 4. The warhammer game could be good too.
I'm a bit iffy about Too Human. Might leave that one slide, depends on reaction once released.
Looks to be a Good year

Well the only games on that list I will get are Fable 2 and Gears of War 2...and I think GTA IV will keep me entertained through the summer.

These are the only games you need for the rest of the year (360):GoW2, Fable2, Ninja Gaiden2 (maybe), Fight Night 4 (maybe)

Viva 2 and Banjo 3 are definatly making me go crazy. Gears 2 is great too but I just assume it's going to be good. Really looking forward to Too Human too. RPG action=
EDIT: Wow forgot Fable 2

Wow, there doesnt seem to be a lot of excitement about Ninja Gaiden 2. Atleast, for me the previous version was the definitive action game of the last generation. Nothing came close to the combat in the genre.
I wonder why it isnt as anticipated as I think it should be. Devil May Cry and God of War seemed to garner more attention than Ninja Gaiden 2 (or Ninja Gaiden Black). I wonder why it doesnt seem to have as much appeal.
Maybe its the blood and mutilation in the game.
Anyway, Im pretty happy with the announced lineup for the 360 this year. There seems to be a nice mix of variety. They seem to be focusing on Action, RPG, and more Family friendly games this year, with one big shooter.
I would love to see a sequel to Kameo too. I really liked that game even though it wasnt that great. I think they had a good premise that needs more fleshed out. Maybe a sequel to Kameo with more effort put into it would be a really good game.

On that list I only need Gears 2.
Left 4 Dead is also a must buy for me, the question is PC or 360?
This summer I'm watching closely Alone in the Dark and American McGee's Grimm.
For the bigger late year titles I'll have to give serious consideration to Too Human, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky (PC only, I believe), Spore (PC/Mac only), Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Silent Hill Homecoming, Project Origin, and Fallout 3. There are a few other titles I'll be watching to see if they are any good.
In general, it doesn't have quite the feel of 2007, but there are still a lot of big name titles and I would not be surprised to see some slip into 2009, either to avoid the crowd or to get just a little more polish.

Wow, we have another heck of a year.

MMMMMMMM Kameo 2 definately I loved Kameo one I have heard a few rumours that rare are going to make one I would love it. I know this sounds lame but I am really really really really really looking forward to GOW 2 and Tomb Raider Underworld because I loved legend and anniversary because it kept me up so much lol. not the sexiness of Lara but the story I thought was exciting and the story was nice I'm a historian so I find the plots compelling. GOW me and my little bro played and we loved it. The plot is really compelling and we loved the co-op ROCK BAND in the UK we get soon and I am getting those for a college present. VIVA 2 looks great as well

The other games are cool but the only one I am going to get is Gears of War 2.
I am a HUGE fan of First Person Shooters so this is my game. I was really bad at the first Gears of War so this is more for fun then competition.

Yeah, there are still a few titles that have yet to be revealed to the public. I wouldn't proclaim the temporary 2008-09 lineup as set in stone just yet.
