Personally looking forward to Army of Two for xbox360...

tman

Burnout Paradise
After spending a bit more time with the demo, and comparing it to Burnout Revenge, I'm starting to feel that the open world is actually a step in the right direction

quad_red

Army of Two, Star Wars: Force Unleashed, Lego Batman, Castle Wolfenstein.

MGS4
GTA4
Army Of Two

Ri_Nollaig

spore (as far as i know it will be out this year)
gta4
that new splinter cell game

Benzino

GTA IV
LittleBigPlanet
Far Cry 2
Metal Gear Solid 4
Haze
Operation Flashpoint 2
Home (ok its not game, but it's worth a mention)
Gears of War 2 (hopefully it'll make it out by christmas, im sure will see some footage from the MS conference thingy this week)

Rhyme

PS3 - MGS4 and GTA4 (for, at the very least, playing it a friends house)

Wii - No More Heroes, Smash Bros Brawl and Mario Kart
(i know there are others... can't remember.)

PC (well, Mac) - Fallout 3 and Starcraft 2.

Mr E

Rock Band, and the inevitable Guitar Hero 4 at the end of the year.....

GTA4 maybe (if they don't mess it up)

Advance Wars Dark Conflict, Professor Leyton and N+ for the DS.

Can't wait for Super Smash Bros Brawl, Starcraft 2, Burnout Paradise, and the WoW expansion.

Holsten

GTA 4,
MGS 4,
New Star Wars game,
Age of Conan,
New Bioware MMO.
Marvel MMO.

All the previews I've seen of Army of Two look like it's going to be horrendous.

Zonda999

I reckon that super smash bros on the wii could be a laugh and the mariokart games are always good IMO.On the proper consoles Gears of war 2 should be interesting and GT5 will be excellent(that is if it is launched in 2008).Enough said on GTA-IV

koneko

Fallout 3
Left 4 Dead
No More Heroes

Lots more but they're my "main" ones I think. Resi5 is top of my anticipated games and I suppose it still has a slim chance of coming out '08. Alan Wake too, if it somehow gets released in '08 (I have my doubts considering the lack of info). Dragon Age too, if '08.

Azza

PC
Spore
Far Cry 2
Storm of War: Battle of Britian

PS3
MGS4
GTA4
Gran Turismo 5

Wii
Mario Kart Wii
Super Smash Brothers Brawl
No More Heroes

Like koneko I'm really looking forward to Resident Evil 5 and Alan Wake whenever they are released as well as Duke Nukem Forever. I also hope Mass Affect is ported to the PC.
Also a big cheer for Operation Flashpoint 2. But I suppose Deus Ex 3 is what I'm really looking forward to the most.

EdgarAllenPoo

If there's an EA Rugby 09 I'd look forward to playing that on the PC, other than that I don't really know as I still haven't made up my mind on whether to buy a 360 or PS3.

Lego Batman and Indiana Jones, Starwars game is fantastic. Res 5, Burnout the list goes on.

Mr E

Saw a preview for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed over the weekend, and it looks very good. Light Sabre and Force Powers using Wiimote could be fun.

hurleyd

Lego Indiana Jones

Kristok

Was just reading about the new command and conquer fps EA are making, pausing the game and zooming out to a rts controlling the battlefield sounds class. And the way they have made the ai so you can get someone to draw fire and flank them should make things interesting. One to defo look out for if your a c&c nut like meself.

Army of 2 looks muck and from what ive read early code isnt promising.

Fnz

- Huxley
- Duke Nukem Forever
- Alan Wake

... well maybe Alan Wake will come out.

For real real though:

- Twisted Metal: Head-On: Extra Twisted Edition (C'mon David Jaffe and team... make it the spiritual successor to "World Tour")

- Burnout Paradise
- Rock Band

- Far Cry 2
- Mercenaries 2... (please don't suck)
- Left 4 Dead

FunkZ

Mario Kart and GTA4

It should make it out this year. Here is a video of some gameplay footage from the korean beta.

I dunno, im not very excited about it after looking at the video.

Indeed, anyone who is interested in this game might want to check this out.

Balfa

Weird how only one person's mentioned any DS games. It felt like (don't shoot me) a year ago any game that was worth playing was a DS game.

Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword sounds interesting alright.

Genghiz Cohen

Project Origin
Spore
Gears of War 2
IF The Duke arrives this year I will get it, just for the memories.

KoKane

Warhammer Online : Age of Reckoning
Fallout 3

They alone are probably gonna dominate all my game time.
Cant wait for Warhammer because most my clan are gonna try it out. Loads of Irish running around from the start will be great.

That's a terrible idea - your memories will be tainted... and you will be sad.

Bioware is collaborating on the PS3 Twisted Metal project; merging it with the Mass Effect IP... seamlessly!
