This year will be massive to say the least. Every genre, big name developers equals a lot of fun for gamers no matter what console you have. For First Person Shooters the PS3 has the big ones. Killzone 2 should be amazing based on the gameplay footage I have seen. I am hoping the frame rate isnt a problem like many fast paced games on the PS3.
The 360 definetly has this years big RPG's. With the release of LO already, the 360 has Fable 2 and Too Human which will be the top contenders for RPG for the year. I am looking forward to Too Human as I anticipate it being Diablo like. Silicon Knights has never failed in terms of the product that they put out so I doubt it will fail.
MGS4!!!! Possibly the most anticipated game of 08. I think MS tried to get the exclusive content for GTA4 to counter this epic but no matter what this game will be amazing and sell loads of consoles.
Gears 2!!!! I am probably the most excited about this game. Gears 1 in my opinion has the best graphics and best gameplay of any game thus far. Add in the multiplayer and you have the new leader for XBL.
Ninja Gaiden II will be huge and will sell a lot of consoles. Sure the first series of games didnt do so well but believe me this one will.
Banjo and LBP which will be better? Personally I am favoring Banjo as I believe Rare still knows what there doing. More or else I probably wont be getting either of these games for quite some time so frankly I dont care much.
Alan Wake will be HUGE when it comes out. I expect it to be on the Silent Hill / Resident Evil level simply based on Remedy's track record and what I no they can do (Max Payne anyone).
GT will be ok in my estimation. It is not the full game so I wont be buying it, a waste of money as far as I am concerned.
The rest I am up in the air about. I dont care much for Tekken or Splinter Cell but some people do.
My vote if for the 360 but I will be buying lots of games for each console.
