It looks like the Energizer bunny because an old PS2 game is being ported to it?

The Wii only has 8 games..... eight games..... (including Galaxy) on GR with a score of 8.0 and above (and one of them in the top three, RE4, is a port of a GC game.) After an entireyear, that's not good - at all.

Do you realize the number of AAA's that have hit the 360 in the last 3 or 4 months? Those AAA's alone will outnumber the amount of AAA's the Wii will get for the entire '08 year.

It's selling well, there's no denying it.... but it's library. THat's a different story.

im sorry did you ever play Okami its an amazing game that would actually benefit from the wii so yeah

oh and 8 games that are woth it in its first year alone is something to celabrate considering the 360 had 2 and the ps3 has 1

The 360 had 2.... what?

I don't know what you're saying.

The amount of AAA's the 360 has got in the last 4 months will outnumber the amount of AAA's the Wii will receive for theentire '08 year.

The 360 has more AAA's on GR than the Wii's entire AA and AAA library combined.

And yeah, I loved Okami. I played it to death a long, long while ago.

EDIT: Are you saying the 360 only had two games higher than 8.0 in its entire first year?!?! lol

please correct me if im wrong but there was Gears and Oblivion and what else?

Thats exactly what i was thinking, it only has like 2 good games coming next year. Unless sheep's are willing to play SSBB until nintendo decides to release a new zelda, 08 will pretty much sucks for the Wii.

SSBB and Mario Kart...Oh yeah I can't wait for 08HarlockJC

Are you ever going to grow up? I mean seriously, those are good to great games. But with all the cool stuff coming out SSBB and Mario Kart excite you that much? Thats just sad.

Common misconception...

anyone can find about 5 games released in the 3rd and 4th quater of '07 that they'd enjoy. It has a very solid lineup coming. You just haven't stopped splooging over screenshots to look at whats available...

Secondly, people are still playing the original smash brothers as well as melee... Considering how much they're doing with brawl, I wouldn't be surprised if it is a staple. How is that any different than Gears of War? or Oblivion?

AAA or AA?
I think you read my post wrong. The Wii has 8 games TOTAL on GR and that includes AA.

In the first year the 360 had 3 AAA's here and tons of AA's (5 of them as high as 8.8.)

On this site, here are the stats:

Total AAA (# exclusive)

  • PC: 13 (5)
  • Xbox 360: 10 (4)
  • PS3: 4 (0)
  • Wii: 3 (2)

Total AA (# exclusive)

  • PC: 71 (48 )
  • Xbox 360: 54 (8 )
  • PS3: 28 (3)
  • Wii: 13 (4)

The Wii is in dead, dead last. I don't know what planet you're living on.

A game cant be "overscored", someone had an opinion and you disagree with it.

The wii is a cool system but the numbers dont lie. Just like the Cube and n64 its going to be short on games.

Name what games?!?! You want me to name 54 AA's?

Here, look at this:

http://www.gamespot.com/reviews.html?type=reviews&platform=1029&mode=all&sort=score&dlx_type=all&sortdir=asc

http://www.gamespot.com/reviews.html?platform=1031&category=&type=reviews&mode=all&sort=score&sortdir=asc

It. Isn't. Even. A. Contest.

The 360's lineup BLOWs away the Wii's lineup. Sorry, I know it hurts.

According to your own numbers, the Wii comes in third in terms of exclusive AAA and AA titles.

That makes sense doesn't it? The PS3 and 360 will share tons of multiplats that the Wii will miss out on, that's why the PS3's numbers are so high while not being high in exclusives. Games like AC, DMC, GTAetc. will obviously be shared by the 360 and PS3 - that works to the benefit of owners of both systems.

For someone who owns only a PS3, the exclusivity thing means nothing.

It's all about the overall quality of a library.

Sales or games?

Sales - it's in 1st.

Games - it's in dead last.

KingOfKonging

Sorry son, I'd rather take a system with a 9.5 exclusive and plenty of excellent AA exclusive games that have average critic scores of AAA than a system with AAA games that I can get better versions of on my PC.

The wii never have and never will win a year. It misses out on too many multiplats to win it gaming wise, which is all I care about.

A few that I liked? or a few that met your standard of bieng what, "properly reviewed on almost every review site". I mean seriously if you just want me to name the games that came out in the first year I liked would you accept that? no.... I will try though.

Dead Rising: this game is a modern classic FOR ME. Personaly I just love this game to death.

Perfect Dark Zero: This is the one that should make you angry I guess. The SP was just decent but the MP was awsome.

DoA 4:by far the best DoA in the series puting this franchise behind only VF for me. I love online fighters.

Over all though I think 360 did a moderatly good job in its first year. Its second has been even better.

The Wii has games I want to play but nothing has motivated me to purchase one yet I just get my thrills at a friends house. For its first year it did what nintendo needs to do and thats get out its first party heavy hitters. Its first year with those games is almost as good as the 360's.

The ps3, well I own one, still believe it will pay off but looks bleak right now.

I would add more games to my 360 list but I dont know what you allow and you dont allow. I gues GoW and oblivion dont count becouse .... why they are no brainers? becouse everyone adds them to their list?

If you are 21 you still need about another 4 or 5 years of rl exp.... you just have not been alive long enouph to have tasted enouph stuff.

We would actually probably get along in real life.

We all remember real life right? where people discuss things in a more civilized fashion becouse we cant hide behind a computer.

I rate the 360 as a great first year.... becosue out of any given year I really only like 3 or 4 games a lot.

As for the to young to have enouph exp. I stand by that.

I am 31 and I know the Geologists I work withare usually 10 years older and I just have not been alive long enouph to posses some of their wisdom..... thats just life I guess. Youth is wasted on the young.

The bonus for me with video games is that I think( I could be wrong) the atari released in 1976 the year I was born. So as far as video games go you can only be about 8-10 years older (old enouph to be FULLY self aware when the system came out) before it becomes a moot point, becouse video games didnt exist before that.

[QUOTE="Superstrokey"]While im a super nintendo fan i just dont see them "dominating" 08. Im sure that they will do fine and all but I cant really think of more than a few games that (atleast right now) will be amazing. No Zelda, no metroid, no mario (well main mario i mean). So we have mario kart and SSBB and thats about all I can think of for mega hits in 08. While i want endless ocean i doubt it will sell too many copies. I gues Fire emblem too but im not sure when thats coming. What all games are going to make the wii own this year? I think it might be a weak year all things consideredeffthat

No More Heroes
Disaster Day of Crisis
Sadness
Umbrella Chronicles
Tomb Raider: Anniversary
Rayman Raving Rabbids 2
Medal of Honor Heroes 2
Godzilla Unleashed
NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams
Harvey Birdman (you know you love courtroom dramas)
Rygar
Bully: Scholarship Edition
P.S. Fire Emblem is out... Release date of Nov. 5

With the exception of Sadness and Disaster: Day of Crisis all of these games will be released before Mario Kart Wii (dated for march)

MGS4, FFXlll and GT5 pretty much puts that list to shame.

Seriously

Eight Days

Final Fantasy 13

Getaway 3

Gran Turismo 5

Jak and Dexter Lost Frontier

Kill zone 2

Little Big Planet

Metal Gear Online

Metal Gear Solid 4

Tekken 6

Possibly God of War 3

ANd the multiplats like Resident evil 5, Soul Calibur 4, Silent Hill 5, Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena,, Dark Sector and much more that WONT BE ON THE WII will kill it.

ANd not to mention the gmaes that SOny hasn't even announced yet.

[QUOTE="Akuma88"]We only know basically what's coming out for the Wii in the first quarter of next year and it really comes down to just Brawl and Mario Kart (I think that's first quarter anyway). So it'll do decent in the beginning but we'll have to wait and see what else comes out because the 360 and PS3 both have pretty solid line ups for next year that we know of.Serraph105

im not sure when the first quarter ends but we also have Okami

also we know about Spore and No More Heros though NMH might be coming out this year idk

all in all though for 360and ps3 fans thie wii is looking like the little energizer bunny from hell

People can just buy Okami on their PS2 for a cheaper price so I don't see how Okami makes Wii's 08 lineup stellar
