Hmm.......Infamous? That would be your next biggest hope, but if that one doesn't flop(I'm predicting a 8.5) then its pretty safe we owned the first half of 09.

If Infamous pulls it off (I have no reason to think it won't) then Cows will have had a very good 1st half of 2009... 2nd is anybodys guess

Infamous , although I wouldn't consider that a "big" one. Most are probably thinking it will be an A game like Crackdown , possibly AA if does well.

What are the official hypes for Infamous and Heavy Rain anyways? I don't think they are hyped AAA. The graphics on HR were hyped to hell but not the game as a whole.

Flopping doesn't take away any of the game's quality. It is just labeling the game as failing to meet the hype.

Nothing ****** up in the world, just in this forum. 2 of my favorite games of this gen are both 8.5 games, meanwhile the 2 10 games I have sit and collect dust on my shelf. SW is bizarro world, man. Ya gotta love it;)

inFamous wont be too big of a deal though as its not as hyped as MadWorld and Halo Wars were. I think most people are expecting just decent scores for it...maybe a 7.5-8.0ish range

It is kinda funny that the others have had pretty major flops while the PS3 has had Two AAAE's in the same time span.

Infamous is not a AAA title, 7.5-8.0 with it's Crackdown-esque appeal. Heavy Rain has flop written over it with the all story lame gameplay approach...and then there is nothing

God of War 3 for some reason I doubt Sony's word and I see 2010, I'm buying a PS3 for it though so I hope it rules...

Uncharted 2 does look good but I can't see it being AAA. Uncharted is one of those really fun games that'll never obtain AAA just based around what it is.

I disagree with that Uncharted statement. If Killzone 2 has proven anything to us, its that sequels can vastly improve.

Has an adventure game like Uncharted been a AAA title though as of late? Given Gamespot's adversity to Uncharted: Drake's Fortune I only see a solid 8.5. Not that it matters, Uncharted kicks ass. I love Nathan Drake :P

then thats just ignorance, cuz there will always be atleast one major game people are looking forward to that we will be let down by. Every game is a potential flop until the review comes in IMO...I still think RE5 could get an 8.5 here. lol

Exactly..... but some (alot of) people can't take a little teasing? I got modded for making a thread about about Empire Total War flopping..... yet, I see these kinds of threads all the time, but mine is the only one getting modded and locked? Whatever, must be alot of fanboy moderators around here.

Halo Wars got a 6.5, I like the game.

Madworld - 7.5.... I'll probably like the game.

Star Ocean IV is a flop.... and I'm liking it too....

Empire Total War flops and Hermits cry, and report you for rubbing it their noses.... LOL... grow up people.

Anyway, Cows your turn for 09 is coming..... but I dont know of any big titles they have coming in the near future so I think it'll be a while for them.

All of these games were proven to be very fun to gamers but very bad for reviewers (or at least from gamespot). In my opinion ALL of these games were underrated. SERIOUSLY!

you know that the very same thing was said in early 08 after coming off of 07 and look what happened. Don't underestimate sony's 1st party dev, they seem to have a handle on the ps3, not saying that all games will be AAA, but just don't assume that KZ2 will be the only ps3 AAA title this year

im disappointed with the 360 09'line up so far, wii is a disgrace and can only be played in short spurts and ps3 has been decent so far this yearbut the total body of work is still pathetic. hopefully all three get it together by this summer.

Halo Wars did not flop, it's going to sell millions and the metacritic overall is an 8, that is not a flop by any means. Just because "Gamespot says" doesn't mean it flopped.

interesting that on metacritic madworld =86 empire total war = 91 halo wars = 82 judging a game by one person's opinion is a pretty poor way to determine if the game is worth playing or not.
