What game have you played that shows off This gen as compared to last gen???

LBP is the One game that Really shows off SOMETHING DIFFERENT that we did not have last gen but other than that not much!!! I am not talking graphics

1. New game mechanic... LBP is one example and maybe the only one unless I missed something

2. NEW AI so you do not know if it's a nub or not great player or computer

3. Physics... not the same MY tank is stuck on this bush crap.... more like this tree is in the way: I can chop it down, set it on fire and burn it down, or climb Any tree here!! O look a bush, I can crawl under it, ... I can dig a hole in the dirt and make a trap.... look its snowing... Hey its not pilling up??? WTH?? I want to be barried in snow have wind effict my movements ... PHYSICS!!!

4. multi path games... I have an effect on the changes in-game.. Not the same linear game line do a, b,c to the end of the game. I want do a, if do B then something changes in the game. the outcome is not the same. Choices in doing something that changes what happens next.

(sp need to edit but no time)

What games are different in playing than last gen and How is it different???

LBP is definately a good choice, with the 4 player Co Op, online, and all that jazz.

I would say ROCKBAND series is a great game to show off this gen (DLC FTW), MGS4 is a great one, Gears of War, Mass Effect, and Uncharted, I guess.

Little Big Planet is good. I would also say Legend of Zelda:Phantom Hourglass(if you count DS), FIght Night Round 3, Call of Duty 4 (never enjoyed multiplayer this much since halo 2), and Oblivion.

A few games:

• Gears
• Dead Rising
• RE5
• inFAMOUS

I would choose Halo 3. Theatre, Forge, and most importantly, its community features. The ability to share custom levels, custom multiplayer game types, in-game screen grabs and video clips with the rest of the game's community really showcases MS's idea that being "online" isn't limited to deathmatches.

I could use any game to illustrate community concepts like achievements and a gamer identity features.

Fallout 3

Definetly Mario Galaxy and Uncharted.

MY points here are not to pick on anyone in specific or in general...

MGS4 is a great game like many other games ... again graphics and number of events occuring on screen at the same time could not happen last gen but other than that looking at MGS3 4 is an upgrade, and with some downgrading it could have been done last gen!

GOW, is nothing new. Again lessen some of the graphics, have less action on screen at once and NP it could have been done on Xbox JUST LIKE HALO 2, Knights of the Old Republic, Far cry instincts, ... and many other shooters

Uncharted LOOK GREAT, plays well, but like Call of duty 3 and again like many other shooters it is not new. The physics on the building are different but as it crumbles but not ground breakingly so

What I am asking is are there any games this gen that could not be done last gen??? Anything different that was not done before???

I know last gen could not do the same graphics I know this gen can have more things happening on screen at the same time... That is not different ....

The way Wii works is different thus the games will be different ... I just wish they had a more advanced CPU/GPU.

lol, why are so many people saying mass effect and gear of war. Those 2 games are NOT gen defining. too many lemmings in here.

My vote would go to LBP and scribblenauts when its out.

My game of the whole generation:

Dead Space

Other great games:

Gears 2

The Darkness

Mass Effect

Afro Samurai

Halo 3

Killzone 2

Uncharted 1

CoD 4

inFAMOUS

Ninja Blade

Lost Odyssey

Tales of Vesperia

Fable 2

i believe you asked for something we did not have last gen

we did not have anything like gears of war last gen. could we? maybe, but we didn't

and it was new, look at all the clones it spawned after it's creation...lost planet, army of two, 50 cent blood on the sand

and gears 2's horde mode couldn't have been done last gen

AGAIN... :roll: all these games.. . SN (scrib..) excluded and LBP as there is no real precedent.... CAN BE DONE LAST GEN ON XBOX!!!! Elder scrolls 3: Morrowind, Star wars KoToR, Halo 2, Splinter cell, and a host of other games.

All the games so far (LBP& SN excluded)play the same have the same mechanics and have add ONLY BETTER GRAPHICS, and more onscreen action.

When I play my Xbox and later play PS3 or Xbox 360 with friends I do not get a sense of AWWW like I'm playing something different, Something next-gen!! Maybe Ive been play long enough to see Gen's Come and GO... from 2D to 3D.. that was a change this is not the same!!
