The purpose of this thread : To make a list of 5 Xbox 360 (does not have to be exclusive) games that YOU think will be the greatest hit of 2008 and then comment on each (optional).
My List :
1. Grand Theft Auto IV Comments - This is undeniably the most awaited game of 2007. No, it didn't make it. In 2008, it will. With the success of its predecessors, just a new GTA game would make any action gamer jump in joy and shed a tear. GTA IV is totally next-gen ; the visuals, the gameplay and definitely, the fun factor that lasts for more than year.
2. Alan Wake Comments - From the makers of "Max Payne", this game has been delayed like nearly 2 years. The waiting period is painful, mighty painful, and worse after the IDF demonstration. Alan Wake is one game that will put you in the seat of horror and behold the majestic beauty of the much touted word of "next-gen". So it seems. Let's see. This game is bloody hot.
3. Far Cry 2 Comments - Let's face it, Xbox 360 had Far Cry. Was it good? No. It was nothing to shout about. Then, Crysis (...) was released, and it was for the PC, obviously. It pushed the boundaries of insane hardware. And then even more. Far Cry 2 was set for the PC, then came the announcement that it was also for the Xbox 360 and its 'friend'. With new technology showcasing new gameplay mechanics, and African Savanna... one can only dream of it being on the Xbox 360, and it is...
4. Gears of War 2 Comments - GoW on the Xbox 360 was a success. I can't phrase it correctly, because I just can't. No words can describe how well GoW fared on the Xbox 360. The sequel, will bring hordes of Locusts on-screen at the same time ; something GoW did not have. With new weapons, new characters, and bloodier battles, you can already put the word success on GoW 2.
5. Fable 2 Comments - The first Fable was loved by gamers and critics alike. Peter Molyneux promised a lot for Fable, but some features did not make it. Fable 2 promises even more, and this time, Peter Molyneux could be holding true to his words. A simple YouTube search for Fable 2 gameplay will show you a myriad of gameplay footage. Its set to be one of the greatest Xbox 360 games of 2008. And let's not forget, you have a dog to follow you through the entire game...

GTA 4 = Fuk yea
Alan Wake = Initially good prospects, but 2 years delay = high chance of failure

QUOTE(Gurdian @ Mar 12 2008, 09:52 PM) Alan Wake = Initially good prospects, but 2 years delay = high chance of failure I believe the "delay" is a good thing... you know, optimisations, debugging... polishing it... I will never take Alan Wake away from my list, it is coming from the guys that brought Max Payne. Nuff' said. GTA 4 is pwn "every" single Xbox 360 game released this year. How can it NOT ? Now its down to who gets the "second" place >> Most likely Gears of War 2... As for Halo Wars  , I am not too sure, RTS games on the Xbox 360 has not done "phenomenally" well... Halo fans are.... first-person shooter fans (most likely), so I am not too sure how RTS game would work for these people... Oh yeah.... forgot about GRiD (from the makers of DiRT) ; it looks photorealistic, it will have a great gameplay, and has fast cars...

Not too sure about Battlefield: Bad Company. Gears of War 2 will be an instant hit for sure. Added on April 12, 2008, 8:51 pmThis is dead or something? No excitement for predictions? I money is on GTA4, Alan Wake, and a few others. This post has been edited by defaultname365: Apr 12 2008, 08:51 PM
