We can dig deep into past years but I think that this year is releasing the best titles, the most AAA titles, and is hands down the best gaming year so far this gen.

2007 was great

but 2008 releases annihilates that year

GTA IV

MGS4

LBP

Resistance 2

Gears 2

Left 4 Dead

Fable 2

Fallout 3

FarCry 2

Dead Space

Prince of Persia

Super Smash Bros Brawl

Okami

Viva Pinata

I have a feeling that all those games will go AAA and thats way more AAA titles than 2007 released.

Bottom line aside from AAA title comparison do you guys like 2008 games better or 2007 games better.

Every year keeps getting better, 09 already is starting to look better than 08.

Oh yea and I like 08 more than 07.

Duh. Non-d**k answer: I agree. This year has been pretty good, and is about to get insane for all consoles. The fall alone beats all of '07.

Well, I've bought Spore, Civ IV: Colonization, Crysis Warhead, Stalker: Clear Sky. I'll be buying, Gears of War 2, Fallout 3 and Red Alert 3 come this holiday. This is a great year for gaming but bad for the wallet.

I liked 07 much better. Nothing competes with Mass Effect,Halo 3, Episode 2 and Crackdown. Probably 4 out of top 5 games I've played this generation.

I have to say that as of right now . Im playing more 07 and 08 games equally

Cod4, Halo3

vs

GTA IV, Soulcalibur 4,

Its definately going to change after late October.

07 had quality, 08 is going to have more quality.

I wanted to disagree....

But if Gears of War 2, Banjo 3, Fable 2, Resistance 2, Little Big Planet, Mirror's Edge, and Left 4 Dead

Deliver on there buzz, then i guess it would be hard to argue against 08....07 had way better shooters, but for diversity, and sheer depth i gotta go with 08.

You forgot Okami.

that doesn't count its an 05 game..

Just like Bioshock and Eternal SOnota don't exactly count as an 08 game.....

we saw these games years before....great games obviousaly just you can't say 07 loses Eternal SOnota and Bioshock just because 08 gets it as well.....07 had it first and when it was fresh...

We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. And no there won't be Halo 4 next year, how long did the last one take? Recon isn't 4.

Well more story = new game. If its more Halo gameplay then that must be a good thing.

I'd bet my PS3 on God of War 3 being GOTY next year.

A port of a PS2 game to Wii. Right - how could we forget about that?

And yeah, this has been an awesome year for gaming, but an expensive one, too.

Didn't say it wasn't a new game. Its called Recon cause its different. Its not the same game, and its not 4.
