So I've loosely compiled a list based on what's on teamxbox's site (sorry guys). This list is obviously not comprehensive, but it does give a general idea of what we can expect to be on the 360 in the year of the rat.

I also know some threads have been opened about individual games, but I thought we could have all 2008 games discussed here.

Now some input from yours truly. Alone in the dark & silent hill are both classics in their own right. You can't really call yourself a gamer unless you've played the daddy of these 2 games. What's next, you haven't played resident evil?

GTA and DMC are also old hands in this sector. They're both awesome, and I can't wait. I'm sure all of you have seen the trailer for GTA IV. Am I the only one here who thinks Vice City was the best GTA released? Hopefully this one does not disappoint. And if DMC 4 is anything like it's predecessors, it's gonna be mind blowing. Then again Prince of Persia 1 was cool, then the second one came out and it sucked ass. We shall see...

Iron man - looks nice. Hopefully it plays nice too.

Ghostbusters. I remember playing this game on Atari, then Sega. Both times the memories were pleasant. Can't wait to kick ghost butt.

Now to talk about the clones. Alan wake = Max payne? Saints row 2 = GTA series? I think so. Attack of the clones begun, it has.

Speaking of which, have you seen star wars: the force unleashed? f*** me it looks great. I hope you can do the Vader choke, that move ALONE would be worth the £40 asking price.

APB trailer seems a bit cops and robbers, which I think is cool.

Last but certainly not least, Fallout 3. I'm hoping to god they don't hash this up. Remember fallout tactics? Oh dear...

My vote goes to the obvious: Fallout 3. I've played fallout 1 and 2, even tactics, and I think it's one of those few games where the storyline really made an impact. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to try and convince my gf to allow me to grab more MS live points so I can buy golden axe. Yeah baby, I gotta get me some of that dinosaur action!

Looks like quite a few of you are looking forward to army of 2...

I'm not a huge fan of FPS's. I'm sorry to have left out some of them.

Another shooter that's boasting "destructible everything" is Fracture. You might wanna check that out.

You guys should check out Fable 2's teaser, which you can find here: http://www.fable2.com/

Apparently you can f**k around and get either yourself or other females pregnant. Now that I have to see...

Nobody else? It's hard for me to get updates coz' I don;t know that many game sites, and I'm boycotting one of my favourites: gamespot - because of what they did to that Jeff Gerstmann fellow for his review of kane and lynch.

Isn't that a rumour that has been taken for truth? Pretty much like XBOX bans modded fan story. Circulate a rumour long enough and it will be taken as the truth.

Ye ke? Well, even when people at x-play and Penny Arcade (the definitive spot for all your gaming news, in cartoon form!) talk about it, I tend to believe it's the truth. Also, I find it highly suspect when the reviews of other people that were negative are removed as well, replaced with some favourable ones then the entire page was themed to kane & lynch...

Anyways, this irrelevant here. ARMY OF 2 IS A GEARS OF WAR CLONE! A horrible one at that.

So many of you say too human, but it's only got 4 votes thus far...
