Of course! Fable 2, Saint's Row 2, Splinter Cell 5, Alan Wake, Halo Wars, Gears of War 2, Ninja Gaiden 2...

Also Mass Effect is another bullet lock and loaded.....

Yup, I'm sure many gamers will enjoy Ninja Gaiden 2, Fable 2, Too Human, Lost Odyssey, Halo Wars, Alan Wake, Infinite Undiscovery, Splinter Cell 5 Conviction and so on.

i will never understand the logic behind you people so what if a big name game is released this year there will be no games for the next? that is the most retarted thingpeople say on system wars nowadays.

I fail to see how having two Multiplats is such a big deal.

Mass Effect got delayed for next year?

So 2008 means that Lems won't bash Sheep for sequels, M I RITE?

Halo 3 is not multiplat.

Mass effect is yet to be released, and that is bound to get a 9.0 or so, So that is like 3 titles, Bioshock-Halo3-Mass Effect, still it's good to have a Xbox 360, although I know the Hermits will come and say something and make me feel sad....j/k

It's an EXCLUSIVE until it's announced for PC...in what? 2010? Seriously leave PC out of this, There is a console market and...well PC is a PC.

Ninja Gaiden 2 and Fable 2 = 360's biggest games next year. Wii will also bring otu it's double whammy this year in SMG and SSBB.

actually I think MS will keep Halo3 exclusive to 360 since it's the end of the trilogy . the PC port was obviously just to bring more people to the serie .

I chuckled at that Halo wars a "Sneak in" to make more money for the franchise, also Fable 1 was not a flop to me, why, was it expected to get a 9.4 or something? Anywho, Saint's Row 2 was a mistake alright forgot, got to damn excited since it was announced...I can't wait to play it!

Let me tell you a story.

This story is about a company called Bungie

Bungie had a FPS, it was called Marathon. It was the Mac's answer to doom, it was the Mac's premier FPS.

Bungie then made Marathon 2. To the great chagrin of Mac users everywhere, Bungie ported Marathon 2 to the PC

Some time later, Bungie made another FPS called Halo. Halo was the Xbox's shining Jewel, it's premier game.

To the chagrin of Xbox fans everywhere, Bungie ported Halo to the PC.

Bungie continued with it's success, and made Halo 2, a supposed Xbox exclusive. Again, it was the Xbox's #1 game.

To the chagrin of Xbox fans everywhere, Bungie ported Halo 2 to the PC.

Some time later, Bungie made another sequel, called Halo 3. It was the Xbox 360's killer app, it's premier game.

I'll let you fill in this line yourself. This is as set in stone as it gets.

You can say it isn't official until their is an announcement, but that won't change the inevitable future of Halo 3. I for one can't wait. Also, my apologies for being so patronizing their, but it helped to get the point across.

Don't need more ammo if all your enemies are dead, do you?

anyone with a decent pc should be playing bioshock on it
also, is halo3 coming to pc ?

its going to come out on pc, i dont see why u kids dont know since ur so obsessed with halo, they want to do cross-platform play, though they havent confirmed development yet, we already know it will be in the near future.. but i honestly dont see how it matters "oh no halo got ported to pc, let me cry in a corner" its not like it got ported to ps3, i dont see how it impacts u, being an xbox user.. it WILL be ported to PC

I agree!

"It is on or will be on the PC! Pwnage!" is the cows most used comeback when being battled with a logical debate about what games are better on what console.

Don't need more ammo if all your enemies are dead, do you?

So with this double-barreled attack, is there any ammo left for next year?NECR0CHILD313

gee there is that one little title called Ninja Gaiden 2....

Who cares, gamers are happy, but outside of these forums, the Wii is the winner even with trash software

In other words, GAMING IS DEAD:cry:

ninja gaiden 2 yes i will give you that.

I think that cows should only hype games like R&C, MGS4 (despite the 3 being only AA i'm sure that the changes in gameplay will make it atleast a 9), FFXIII and GOW 3. All the new IPs don't sound like AAA material to me, maybe AA but not AAA.

I think that sony should make a 400 euros/dolars ps3 with the new dualshock because me and other people will only buy one when that happens. I'm really interested in watching blu-ray but there aren't places to rent them yet in my country.

They act almost as happy as if PS3 were synonomous with PC. Sorry guys. PC and console markets are very different.

Ninja Gaiden 2 and Fable 2 = 360's biggest games next year. Wii will also bring otu it's double whammy this year in SMG and SSBB.

Good chance they also have the next Bioshock. Alan Wake is by another one of those teams like Irrational.

Stuff like Left 4 Dead, Lost Odyssy, Fable 2, NG2, SC5, Halo Wars, KUF, Too Human, Infinite Discovery and probably even more. Thats just what we know off for now. And of course next Geow and Mass Effect.(Both are announced Triologys)

If Halo and FPS equal a gauntlet then it was thrown 5 years ago...and MS already lost that battle. I think the 360 is a great console, but FPS didn't help the original Xbox and they won't help the 360 as much as continuing to build their already solid and diverse library.

Ehh... wasnt MP3 nintendo's answer to Bioshock? We will just have to wait and see if SMG can answer Halo's challenge....Philmon

What? I think you need to check your facts.

Microsoft owns both platforms. Why leave the PC out of it, it's entirely relevant.
