360 Fans.. Getting nervous? 2008 around the corner.. No Killer APPS announced

Mass Effect will be the last biggest MS exclusive release for a good good while. So what does MS have in store for 2008?! And no i dont mean multiplats such as GTA IV, Dark Sector, Army of two or Devil May Cry. I mean as far as exclusives go, ok Too Human yea might be ok, but come on.. MS has its work cut out for them in 2008, they have to announce something to overshadow MGS4, Killzone 2, GT5 and Little Big Planet.

Now I know what most of you are going to say.. You are going to throw names at me like Lost Odyssey, Banjo, Alan Wake, Halo Wars,Ninja Gaiden 2 and Fable 2. Grant it those might be great games but you have to understand that half of those are unproven franchises while the other half are titles that wont appeal to the average casual..

So what will MS do to counter MGS4, Killzone 2, Little big planet and GT5?. Everyone knows that when MGS4 hits, IT WILL BE HUGE and OMG dont even get me started on Killzone 2, if that game turns out to be good it will OWN 2008. Another thing to keep in mind is the 36's popularity was built on online multiplayer games NONE of the exclusives announced so far for next year are multiplayer heavy.. bottom line is, if MS doesnt announce Gears of war 2 for 2008 or something extraordinary, then they have A LOT OF WORK TO DO!

just wait...

so the 360 has unproven franchizes?

what about killzone? proven?

LBP? Proven?

also, it seems to me that MGS4 is just a cash in n gears gameplay with about 100 hours of movies

and if you want proven franchizes, just look at NG2, banjo 3, and fable 2

dude lets face it, you know it and i know it that while Banjo, NG2 and fable 2 will be great, they arent exactly what many would consider "Killer apps" Im talking about KILLER APPS. Games that make people skip school and call in sick for work, games that will MOVE systems. Im talking about the Gears of war, Halo and COD4 type of games and lets face it.. 360 doesnt have anything of that level announced so far

When Killzone 2 and MGS4 hit, you can rest assured the gaming world will be BUZZING

LBP is proven already

yep still TBA

but then again, how can you know that the future ps3 games will be good?

oh im too busy actually playing good games instead of waiting for them vickissv2

so is everyone else,but its nice to think about the fututre as well

HAHAHHA so NG2 in unproven title and Killzone which floped and sold horribly everywhere is a proven title? Things that make you go HHHHMmmmmmmmmm.

According to cows ps3 did alright in 2007 with games such as Lair, heavenly sword, warhawk but in 2008 360 wont do good with Halo wars, bonjo, NG2, alan awake, Huxley, Lost odessy, ect...

Microsoft will die in 6 weeks! :Osexy_chimp

ZOMG!!

Fable 2 and Too Human are enough for me personally. Alongside games like Halo 3, TF2, GTA IV,and Mass Effect 2008 will be a very busy year if I continue to only own a 360 (Know in the market for a Crysis grade computer)

you keep mentioning killzone2 as if people even remember killzone. stop telling yourself that the game is a proven killer APP because its not. and like you said..nothing has been announced so far..whats to say nothing will be announced before the year is over?

ratchet was good. motorstorm was ok. lair was decent.

no...by the lemming standards, all you have to do is look at the awards that a game revievs to see what kind of rating it will get...that means lbp will be amazing.

All im saying is, knowing microsoft if they really had anything spectacular for next year they would have already announced it. Take Gears of war for example, man they announced that game even before the 360 itself launched and was hyped for 2 years

And it's just like, WHOA!?

And I'm all like, OMG!?

LOLcows!:|

Ninja Gaiden 2 ? Fable 2 ? Lost Odyssey ? Alan Wake ? turgore

im tellin you man, those games might be good but admit it.. they arent system movers, for instance when you say MGS4 to the average gamer the first thing they say is something like "OMG that game looks so sweet" or "OMG im so getting a PS3 when it comes out" if you talk to the average gamer and bring up alan wake, ninja gaiden 2 or fable 2 they either A. havent heard of them or B. arent intrested in them.. Just face it man, so far MS has NOTHING that can match the hype for MGS4 in 2008 its ok man.. MS had 2 hype machines in a row the last 2 years.. Gears and Halo, they need a break

Yeah, and 2007 was a fantastic year for the PS3. :roll:

Face it, you have no clue how the games will get reviewed. Not one of us does. Killzone 2 is no proven franchise, not even attaining A status on the PS2. LBP looks promising, but still unproven. MGS and GT are the best to bet on, but there is still the possibility of a flop.

Fable 2, Lost Odyssey, SC: Conviction, Alan Wake (08?), Too Human (08?), Ninja Gaiden 2, etc., all look to be good titles, plus whatever else that might be announced. It's hard to shell out massive titles every year, but the 360 has done a good job of it so far. I don't see your gripe.Not to mention, ZERO AAAE's for the PS3 at the moment, I guess 2008 is very important.

P.S. Anyone who skips work/school for a game is a loser. Life > games.

What is dead island?! lol, GTA IV is coming for PS3 also and Fable 2 and alan wake might be ok but nothing to lose sleep over

yeah but so does you guys bragging how much better 360 is, I own one , but i'll love my ps3 till the day i die, 360's getting old, every game is a freakin FPS besides ME and that doesn't even look that appealing

Hello!

there are so many good 360 gam)s coming out!

Banjo 3, Lost Odyssey, NG2, Alan Wake, TooHuman,etc (check sig for some others)

And then theres the multiplats such as RE5, SH5, GTA4, Huxely, etc.

the Xbox 360 has argueably the best 2008. actually, i think it has the best 2008 (period)
