games you look forward to in 2008 and beyond

From what people tell me on BlazBlue, pretty much everyone is good at higher levels. The smaller cast allows for much better balance. Tager's the only one that I haven't seen too many videos of but even then, the few I have seen have him matching up just fine.

Well, it's more then likely going to take a while to figure out exactly how balanced the game is anyways. Also I do agree that Guilty Gear at high play doesn't look TOO fun, as in it has a lot of corner camping and DUSTLOOPS.

On another note, the sequel to Symphony of the Night?

Double post, because I'm hoping they make a 40k game were they actually show the Space Marines as anti heroes instead of generic super soldiers saving humanity.

FF XIII. Yeah... I'll be waiting a while, but I still want it.

Red Faction Guerrilla is gonna be out in about a week. The single player demo is pretty fun, so it should be okay. Hopefully its a decently long game.

Bioshock 2, Modern Warfare 2, Max Payne 3

lol, in order to do that, they would have to look at a chapter other than the Ultramarines. The Blood Raven Chapter would be a good one for that kind of idea. Also, they would have to focus on the internal struggles of the chapter.

As an aside though, most Space Marines are incredibly loyal to the station that they were given, those who weren't/aren't are usually converted to chaos or at the very least renegade chapters.

also, looking forward to that game, and hoping that they expand and make games based on more of the races (which would be incredibly awesome especially if they made a dark eldar game).

Same here. Also I need to get Bioshock one.

I'd love an Orkz based game. That or a Chaos based one so I can have a game with satanic characters killing supposed white knights.

Oh god, Dead Space: Extraction looks so fucking cool it's not even funny. Dead Space is probably in my top two favorite games ever, and this looks like it's going to be a good addition to the series, even if the style of gameplay isn't very similar.

after watching the dj hero trailer, if they don't have anything better than gwen steffani, eminem, or jay-z, my interest will continue to not exist.

TEXT UNRELATED BECAUSE I TALKED ABOUT A GAME IM NOT INTERESTED IN OLolol

also, i crave diablo 3, jesus christ.

I don't see the designs as generic at all though. I just see an artist sticking to his style, which works really well because they're all awesome.

I don't mean to bring up the dead, but did you see the samurai with long GRAY hair and an 11 FOOT SWORD (I got a better look at him, he's actually kind of cool looking...)? Or the gothic lolita? Or the two VERY shonen like douches? Or the chick that could make a DOA girl look normal. I mean, some of the designs are rather awesome (hell, they even have a fairly original catgirl in there, which is not fucking common) but there are a few that really irk me.

No More Heroes 2. Shinobu is now a playable charecter with apperently a fairly different play style then Travis's.

Boomp, but this is kinda disturbing.

No More Heroes 2
Metroid Prime Trilogy
Muramasa
Monster Hunter 3
Metroid Other M
Mario Galaxy 2
New Zelda
TvC
Supposed pikmin 3 and I still need to check out MadWorld.

I'm glad I still have my Wii, oh and this game looks good, at least the little I've seen.

Add in:

A Boy and His Blob
Cursed Mountain
Little King's Story (which is out now and wtf awesome)
Dead Space Extraction
Spyborgs (Capcom's making a new beat'em up!)
maybe that new Silent Hill
Sky Crawlers
Sakura Wars
Fragile
Arc Rise Fantasia
FF Crystal Chronicles: Crystal Bearers

and the Wii has more stuff that I'd like to play than either of the other two in the next year.

My 360 list is:

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (oh my god they put in the AA-12 shotgun. Look up footage on youtube for videos of it in real life. so awesome)
Assassin's Creed 2
maybe Alpha Protocol
maybe Magna Carta 2 (the first one was pretty bad, but the totally moon language demo for 2 was fun so we'll see)
FF13 is a definite first day buy but who knows if it'll actually make release early next year?
maybe Tekken 6 but I already have SF4 and BlazBlue
Bayonetta
probably Bioshock 2 if they don't screw it up with co-op
Splinter Cell: Conviction
Mass Effect 2
Resonance of Fate
Alan Wake

Problem with the 360 list is that from FF13 on down, none of the release dates are even set at all. Most of them are totally TBA.

yes, what egg dude said.

Also I can't be the only one hyped for Borderlands, can I?
