Xbox360 lineup for 2009 seems great, maybe better than '08

MS is packing the fantasy/medieval theme of 09.LOXO7

Most definatly does, that is why it is by miles the best game lineip in 2009 for me

wow , there are alot of games :oIpik_Fenris

And we still know nothing about the secret projects MS keeps to announce the last minute

This thread has more errors than a George Bush speech. The line up looks horrible as well. shabab12

What errors would those be exactly ?

As for the lineup, looks a million times better than PS3 one for me, since it has 10x trhe amazing huge world free roaming, next gen games and RPGs, PS3 has zero of that kind

So, what are the "errors", i will be glad to fix them, if you can name even one that is

not a very good line up

not many good games

no good xbla games

the fable and fallout dlc looks ok and hopefully worth buying

pretty weak line up compared to the ps3's (even the wii has more games i want)

Ok, all opinions are wellcome

For me it is PS3 that has nothing in 2009, since FF13vs is coming in 2010 or 2011, and 360 gets 15+ RPG's i will buy day one, so 360 has by miles the best 2009 lineup for me, with the best by miles games too since i am a RPG gamer mainly, and the best huge open free roaming next gen worlds, like those in the WRPG's, Alan Wake, KUF2 etc that PS3 has not got even one such game

PS3 is the system of the small tiny last gen designed experfiences for me in 2009, 360 the system that gets all the vast next gen open world games

My day one buy games in 2009

1. Fable 2 expansion

2. Fallout 3 expansion (360/PC only)

3. Two Worlds Temptation

4. Mass Effect 2

5. Divinity 2: Ego Dragonis

6. Venetica

7. Alan Wake

Sorry, you have as much idea about the game as those that list it for PS3

I just hate ignorance, all their games have been published by MS, latest is COD, and the strategy games on xbox before that

Also they have confirmed development only on PC/360

You failed or what ? Any more ignorance ?

BTW here are the linkies

Kingdom under Fire 2 exclusive to the 360

http://www.xboxygen.com/index.php?file=News&op=index_comment&news_id=8772

Anxious not to more hear of Kingdom under Fire 2, our fellow-members of Xbox-mag contacted the developers of the play, and those answered qu' they would communicate soon on the play, but that this one will leave only on the white lady (and on PC).

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=233060&page=2

The game is currently targeted for "consoles" and PC, however, even though platform choice is not the developers decision he said that they have a strong relationship with Microsoft (this is their fifth title) and their fanbase is with the Xbox, so dropping the 360 would be crazy.

I suppose you are a casual gamer, that knows nothing about those games anyway, so what other game have i got ""wrong"" ?

Just check the validity of your sources first

more than half those games you listen dont even look good, your just trying to pull out every single bit of exclusive content to make it seem like 360 has such an amazing lineup for 09 but it doesnt. and mass effect 2 will probably go multiplat since bioware is now owned by EA

big_mac_combo

That is just your opinion, i will buy day one all of the games in my top 20 list above, so those do look incredible to me, and are all on 360, no PS3 exclusive has made my top 20 2009 games yet, simply because PS3 has zero great RPG's, adventure and startegy games

As for Mass Effect 2, it is CONFIRMED 360/PC only, sorry, are you a friend of the above guy that thought KUF2 is on PS3 too ? hahaha

MASS EFFECT 2 not on PS3

CEO Ray Muzyka from bioware confirmed that Mass Effect is not coming to the PS3!

http://www.psxextreme.com/ps3-news/3470.html

.

What was so good about mass effect? It was slow paced and the gameplay was poor. As for halo wars it is a real time stratergy game right? There has only ever been one real time stratergy for games consoles that has worked for me CIV Revolutions, unless halo wars is something special then in my mind real time stratergys should only exist on PC.hoosier7

Halo Wars is special, as its the first designed ground up for a console AND is Halo. HappyAppe

ok, ill admit i was wrong BUT 90 percent of thew games you have listed are pure rubbish. Youve listed games which 1stly will probably not come out this year and secondly you no NOTHING about. your just naming them because there exclusive. Its like me putting lair up on my ps3 list and claiming the year looks great for the ps3.Kingdom under fire is just plain awful and you have even listed DLC which is pethetic. Could youdo me a favour and make a ps3 thread and then we will see who has the better lineup.

honestly doesn't seem that great in my opinion.

sure there are 3 or 4 games i am looking forward to, but even those haven't been confirmed for 2009.

but ms always has something up its sleeve.

Wow obamanian. You truly are king of X-Bots... You spend so much time trying to say the PS3 has no exclusives in 2009 and trying to convince people that mediocre 360 exclusives will be the next coming of the Messiah on a disc, you probably do nothing else....GodofBigMacs

Let's be honest, some games may turn out bad, but not you or i know how each game will be, so let's stop with the "predictions" that ... 90% will be crap, until those games are out

Especially given many of those are my top 2009 titles by far, and could be AAA-AAAA titles from the looks of them, maybe even 90% of them turn out good to great, which means all could potentially be games you can have fun with

The majority of the 2009 360 lineup hasn't even been announced yet according to MS.RonnieLottinSF

[QUOTE="RonnieLottinSF"]The majority of the 2009 360 lineup hasn't even been announced yet according to MS.GodofBigMacs

I'm not going to dig that quote up since it was made last year. You know what google is. Use it. If the rumors of ME2 and FM3 being shown at GDC is any indication, I'd say MS is just getting started.

The majority of the 2009 360 lineup hasn't even been announced yet according to MS. You will most likely start seeing these new titles at GDC and then push them hard at E3.RonnieLottinSF

They mean the 360 only games, i agree many more than Star Ocean 4, Halo Wars and those newly announced RPG's will be revealed, but i already have my top 30 list from the announced titles, it may change as new titles do come, but is alreadsy a vast lineup for me, since i am probably buying most or even all of those games

Here is my top 30 most anticipated titles in 2009, the top 20 are my personal AAA-AAAA titles, those are some of my most wanted games ever

1. Fable 2 expansion

2. Fallout 3 expansion (360/PC only)

3. Two Worlds Temptation

4. Mass Effect 2

5. Divinity 2: Ego Dragonis

6. Venetica

7. Alan Wake

8. Kingdom Under Fire 2: Dominion

9. Risen

10. Final Fantasy 13

11. Star Ocean 4

12. Witcher white wolf

13. Gothic 4

14. Dragon Age

15. Overlord 2

16. Resident Evil 5

17. Final Fantasy 13vs (PS3, if it comes in 2009)

18. Dungeon Hero

19. Majesty 2

20. Dawn of Fantasy

The rest 10 in my top 30 most anticipated, are mostly games that may turn out good and even AAAA and are the genre i love (RPG's and WRPG's especially), we do not have much info on a few, but the promise of another amazing huge WRPG is more appealing to me than say another shooter like Gears

21. Age of Pirates: Captain Blood

22. Precursors

23. Black Legion

24. Xavaint Studios RPG

25. Magna Carta 2

26. Theseis

27. Deus Ex 3

28. Demon Soul (PS3)

29. Lord of Shadows

30. Aliens RPG

Besides 2 PS3 titles, one of which (FF13vs) will probably not make it in 2009, the rest are all on 360

BTW what are the chances God of War 3 and Team ICO games become RPG's ? That would be cool

I'm not going to dig that quote up since it was made last year. You know what google is. Use it. If the rumors of ME2 and FM3 being shown at GDC is any indication, I'd say MS is just getting started. RonnieLottinSF

Is Forza 3 still a rumor, or is there a developer confirmation, like the confirmation of Mass Effect 2 coming to PC/360 ?

The best way to explain that lis is "games that PS3 will nto get" rather than exclusive to 360 (due to the PC factor). But look at it this way, the 360 gets the best PS3 multiplat games, and the 360 gets the best PC multiplat games. Win/win for 360 owners. PS3 on the other hand doesnt get PC games, and thus it loses out, so even if that list is mostly 'multiplat' games, ti doesnt matter, because they jstu plain don't exist ont eh PS3 which is teh alternate console of choice. PC > (360>Ps3)Phazevariance

That is how i see it too, 360 gets the best of both worlds, and huge exclusives on both JRPG's and WRPG's like Fable 2 and Star Ocean 4

[QUOTE="HappyAppe"]Halo Wars is special, as its the first designed ground up for a console AND is Halo. hoosier7

i will tell you right now.. diablo3 and ffv13 are NOT coming to the 360.campzor

Like Diablo 1 did not come to PS1 and like FF13 did not come to xbox 360 you mean ?

I will wait and see, i simply can't believe the opinion of some random poster in a forum

When i suggested FF13 would come to 360 back then, i had a million posters like you say will never ever happen

And guess what happened, same for Witcher, Dragon Age, Tekken 6 etc, those games were supposed to never leave PC and PS3 also

i will tell you right now.. diablo3 and ffv13 are NOT coming to the 360.campzor

As much as I would love for Diablo 3 to come to a console (I normally hate RPGs except for a few rare exceptions and Diablo is one of them) I am not going to get my hopes up.

I would play the PS Diablo a good bit back when I was in middle school. After I discovered the joys of Battle.net I never touched that trash again. :lol:

Diablo was actually the first game I ever played online.

That means nothing for Diablo 3, a port would be just perfect now that cosnoles support proper HD resolutions and the controls worked fine bck then and in a vast number of other similar games on consoles

Like I said, I wish it would happen but I have my doubts. It is not something I would hold my breath on.

To be honest I kinda hope it stays on PC in a way. Ever since I quit MMOs my Alienware has been sitting in its suitcase not getting any love.

It will come to PC first anyway, i will play it on PC first myself, but if it comes to 360, i will definatly pick that version again, because i prefer the ease of use of 360 and pad controls by miles, i will just buy it 2 times, since will be like two totally different games when playing it with a pad for me, i just love the analog, smooth fully 3D hero direct control by far

Why don't you just keep the PC version and play it with a pad. Viola, you get better graphics than the 360 version (IF there is a 360 version) while still keeping your prefered control method! BTW, what's your PC specs?

Because i can't connect my HDTV to my PC, plus if the game is not made with pad in mind, will simply not be anything similar to 360 controls, and the whole point is to have controls made specifically for pad, not use a pad over PC controls

I have a quad core, but a crappy 8400 video card, 2GB ram, i will upgrade my GPU for Diablo 3 if needed, but from the visuals i have seen, this game will have no problem runing maxed on both my PC and 360, the visuals are rather mediocre technically (in fact i find them rather terrible TBH for a next gen title)

I see your predicament. I agree with you about the visuals, mostly. I don't like the artstyle or the technical look of it. Either way, chances of the game coming to the 360 is very slim, but I only intend to play it on PC, anyway.
