We can obviously tell which games will be sold very quickly, and be talked about for ages. Here is a few that I have picked which will be talked about for a good time:
- Gears Of War 2
- Fable 2
- Saints Row 2
- GTA IV
- MGS4
- SSBB
- God Of War 3
- Dark Sector
There is more, but you can pick your own selection of games which will dominate this year. So what are your thoughts and opinions share it on this thread, and see what reaction we shall get.
Omg! Those are ALL great games like I forgot how many good games are coming out this year but Id have to say
Gears of war 2
SSBB
GTAIV
And for those fable lovers fable 2!
thats what i think
GTA IV and Prototype. Two very amazing games coming this year. As for things I'm looking for: GTAIV, Fable 2, GoW2, Prototype.
GTA4 and MGS4 will dominate awards this year easily. Both are amazing game series and it's hard to find a better franchise out this year.
Some other notable games to mention are Spore and Star War The Force Unleashed. Both look very promising and will defiantly do well.
Also I doubt very well that Saints Row will do any good this year. The only reason it had a minor success was because there wasn't a next gen GTA game which is what it was trying to do. This year we got just that so it will not do as well.
NoPeace - out
Oh wow forgot Force Unleashed. That is sure to be a huge one just for the amazing things it's doing with the engines. Not to mention it's Star Wars! Star Wars! But no one on Prototype? It looks so sweet!
Gears of war 2 hands down. Who doesn't love spreading blood and guts all over your screen and the floor. its just so fun.
GoW2, GTA4, MGS4 (FTW) and i personally want Dark Sector :)
I didn't know Fable 2 was going to be released this year :O
I totally loved the first one and i'm SOOO gonna get the new one as soon as it is released :o
As for the game that will dominate this year, Gta IV , duh .
Woot! GTA4 FTW!!! But for PS3 of course
I don't follow the game industry that much anymore so most of those names are totally unfamiliar to me, however I'm looking forward to Starcraft 2 and GTA IV with great excitement.
Not a console player so will sadly miss out on some amazing titles (especially fable 2 and god of war 3). But there is always Assassins creed for PC, Starcraft 2, Kane's Wrath, and hopefully some more epic RPG's.
Hmmm
Gta 4 - 360
Smash bro's Brawl/Mario kart Wii - Wii
Who cares? - Ps3
in total sales probably gta4 as its on both consoles
otherwise prototype and star wars force unleashed as its alsow multiplatform
but each console independently
xbox360- gears of warr 2 / fable 2
ps3 - killzone 2 / gran tourismo prolouge (already platinum before release 1 000 000 pre orders europe alone) and definitely Metal Gear Solid 4
Wii - SSBB
u can scratch god of warr 3 it will be 2009 for that 1
but it u want to make a prediction for 2009 then definitly God of warr 3 and final fantasy 13
I would say SC2 but who knows when it will actually come out. It's Blizzard after all and they release games when they fell it's ready.Quote:

I really do hope it comes out this year as it's just going to be amazing. Just like how the original one was amazing 10 years ago. But for some reason I just feel that it will some home get pushed back to next year.
You do realize that this year is the year of the PS3? The first 2 months of this year saw the PS3 beat out the x360.Quote:

Sure the x360 has GoW2 and Fable 2 at the end of the year but what does the PS3 have? Next month we have GT5 Prologue which is nothing more then a fancy demo of GT5 which will easily sell 1-2 million copies quickly. Not just that but you also have MGS4 which is the only game coming out this year that has any hopes of touching GTA 4 in sales.
Those 2 games will drive at least 1-2 million new sales for the PS3 this year. Not to mention with the PS3 being the best BluRay player on the market, it will also drive up sales even more. On top of that the PS3 will be dropping in price in no time to match the x360 in price and then you'll have all the PS2 fanboys rushing to get the PS3 as it's affordable.
Funny enough, the PS2 itself still out sells most systems and once the PS3 gets down into the $200-300 range you'll see those sales shit from the PS2 to the PS3.
So a lot of people will care about the PS3.
NoPeace - out
RPG - Fable 2, Too human
FPS - Vegas 2
RTS - Tom clancys End War
these are just the games i'll probably buy, dont mind if they dominate or not :P
Im gonna say GTA IV or Fable 2
Really now o.OQuote:

True, but it was said to come out in 2008 so I'm going by that. Hope it does cause we've sure been waiting long enough already, but I wouldn't be too surprised if it doesn't make it, either.Quote:

Starcraft 2 or Gears Of War 2 will kill anything. And yet again PS3 is in the shitter.

metal gear solid 4
MMORPG: Age of Conan
Console: GTA IV
Most likely it will be either GTA IV or MGS IV.

My personal Opionion, Fable 2. Its been Under Development for what? 2 years now? mabey 1.5 If we all know Lionhead Studios, The will Bring there best to the table. Fabled 2 just with the Trailer, has fans including me. awaiting its realease in uhh, i cant remember, but yeah its hard to choose between all thoes Great Games. But Fable is sure one to put the Fable Fans and new ones, in the Rich Lore we have come to enjoy ;P
1.5 or 2 years is just average in terms of game development these daysQuote:

like the multiplatform darksector wich has been released this week and which was announced in 2004
Gametrailers.com - Dark Sector - Review
But yea fable 2 will be nice , the co up is whats gonna make it cause the gameplay itself will be a bit short going from latest previeuws
Well,
New to this section..
But I'd have to agree with fable 2. I remember the first one,wasn't so big for me when it came out. Some friends got me into it and I was playng xbox more then I was playing XBL and pc put together. I seen some previews and it looks like you can get guns now(muskets)
The reason I picked fable 2 was the fact that it's the only game I can see people playing for a couple more years after it's released that is.
yea fable was great ,ppl will definitly play fable 2 for a long time , only for its co up its super , any player can instantly join ur game wherever u r , the other player will just popup besides uQuote:

Well,we'll see :D

GT5 prologue suxx sorry to say it but you only can buy cars and not tune them so thats an waste of time and money for an preview peak its great so i hope gt5 will have the raly and tuning and so on else i would not even get it.
best this year will be for me :
Fable 2 Xbox 360
GTA 4 PS3
I goth them both so i will have some play time soon.
GT5 Prologue olmost finished that one.
look at S.T.A.L.K.E.R , it has even a longer time of development!Quote:

MGS 4 Baby, once it comes out, ppl will try to sell their 360's with their 4 decent games that exist, or try to exploit the warranty.
Resident Evil 5 - release TBA but hey we can always hope
Huxley if it ever comes out, but then again it could be shit be cause of 'over development'
Farcry 2, looks better than crysis imo in some aspects
Legendary
- Gears Of War 2
- Saints Row 2
- GTA IV
- Dark Sector
Yeah, that's all I got :P
Duke's coming back?! ^^'
Yeah, the 360:
•Gears of War 2
•Fable 2 (co up? What's that? Seriously..)
Wii/DS:
•Super Smash Bro.'s Brawl
•Spore (DS and Wii. The online features like sweeet. Plus there's room for sequels.)
•Alone in the Dark (Controll-wise, it will pwn 360 and PS3)
Playstation 3:
•Grand Tourismo 5
•Metal Gear Solid 4 (Looks simply AMAZING graphically.)
PC:
•Alone in the Dark (1 word.. Amazing.)
•This new MMORPG with Mortal Kombat-style button combo's.. (Forgot the name)
My Game of the Year will be Alone in the Dark.

I think that all offline games are dying slowly. Personally I don't play offline games for 1 year now and never thought of playing some of them. So mostly I think that WHO, WoW, AoC, CoD:4 will own this year.
