December numbers would seem to suggest the scarcity of the Wii may have benefited the other consoles.
"While the Xbox 360 and the Wii sold roughly the same amount of units in December, in terms of growth, the Wii was the clear loser. Nintendo's red-hot game system saw a 38 percent increase from November to December, versus 64 percent for the Xbox 360 and 71 percent for the PlayStation 3."
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
and ps3 will sell more this year
maybe in america it sold roughly the same but worldwide the wii dominated
The Wii has been kickin major butt, even with supply constraints. The 360 has been trucking on, slow but steady and keeping itself way ahead of the PS3 which is just what MS want.. The gap is not closing and they will continue to be in last place throughout 08.

You have to take in account we're talking about a % increase in growth. While the Playstation 3 was 7% more than the 360 it did have more room for growth as more 360's have been sold. It will be interesting to see how the year plays out. I've got em both and would have a Wii if I could find one :(
fanboys and sony was hoping that would be the case. but it really wasnt if so both ps3 and microsoft would have outsold wii or match the sales.. but they didnt cause people who wants a wii... wants a wii.. and soon as supply is good the sales will double
