Last week, TechTree looked at some really innovative games slated to release in 2008; whereas this time around, you'll get to take a look at the good old bang-bang-drive-punch-boom-jungle-tried-and-tested type of games aka the most anticipated games of 2008.

You bought an Xbox6379d ago

This game alone will make me trade in my XboX for a PS3!!
There are a lot of top quality title's coming this year for the PS3 wish i could say the same for the XboX

mintaro6379d ago

actually there a quite a few good titles making its way to the 360 in 08.
fable 2, splinter cell conviction, too human, jsut to name a few

jackdoe6379d ago

Mintaro, Too Human is debatable. You forgot Alan Wake and NG2 for the 360. So a good year for both 360 and PS3 owners IMO.

mintaro6379d ago

oops my bad, but i do think too human will shape up to be a fully realized game.

So can any Sony fanboy tell me which great game Guerilla has ever made? Their current track record of greatness? What came before KZ2 that shocked the gaming world in a positive way?

I am so interested

fopums6379d ago (Edited 6379d ago )

killzone liberation.
edit: and Bungie made Oni which was about a 7, then they made Halo:CE which was great and Halo 2 which was not nearly as awesome as it was made out too be, even bungie admited this. Being a handheld game is a non factor and think before you post a cop-out

so what are you so afraid of KZ2 for? anyone who post's as much negetivity about a game that isnt released clearly dosent want the game to happen. Notice I said HAPPEN, the game sucsess will NOT be affected by you, no matter how many post's here at n4g you make you will not effect the games quality.

that goes for all you fanboys, think I would waste me time attacking a game over and over and over? tsk tsk tsk, your better off hunting down the GG employees, that might actualy get you somewhere!

TheMART6379d ago (Edited 6379d ago )

I was talking about great games. KZ liberation is

a.) good, not great, average score about an 8
b.) a handheld game, name one for homeconsoles
c.) just one game.

Now the question again: the track record, that is multiple great games for especially homeconsoles from Guerilla. Can anyone name them?

mesh16379d ago

gorilla are no 1s in the game industry and p.s what the hells with all this idna game sites hahahaha AFRICA IS BETTER THAN INDIA

masterg6379d ago

@TheMART

Why are you looking for any reason (how ever pathetic it may be) to make yourself think KillZone 2 will not be a great game.
Lets say you were right.. What satisfaction would that give you?

wageslave6379d ago

@the_mart & masterg

"Why are you looking for any reason (how ever pathetic it may be) to make yourself think KillZone 2 will not be a great game."

He's said "Tell my how KZ2 justifies this hype, show me why guerilla warrants this faith".

And you reply "why do you want KZ2 to suck?"

You are skirting his question -- and he is 100% correct -- that Killzone 2, has absolutely -Z-E-R-O- credibility as a "sure fire hit".

Guerrilla has no track record, *AND* its only other work was mediocre.

Yet, people are hyped-up for it. Why?

masterg6379d ago

@wageslave

Actually my reply to theMart was to not just this statement. It was to the 100's of statements he has made in the last year about KZ2 not going to be good.

Off course it deserves the hype. Anybody saying it doesn't as a big fanboy.
It's as simple as that. We see tons of new IP's getting a lot of hype when they show something extraordinary. And KZ2 has shown something extraordinary. What should make this game any different?

It's like saying The Lord of the Rings didn't deserve any hype because Peter Jackson had not made anything great before that.

JBaby3436379d ago

The in-game footage is what makes me believe "have faith" that this game will be great. We all know the original CGI movie was bogus but most, even many 360 fans, agree the game looks amazing. Everything from the E3 2007 footage to the 25 min tech demo show this game has great potential. I say potential because we do have to wait and play it but from what I've seen the game has everything it needs. Plus the September Issue of GameInformer stated from "hand-on" time the game is looking incredible and even the much debated AI is tight. The only negatives are coming from people who for whatever reason are wanting the game to be bad. So I have faith in it so far.

metallbizkit6379d ago

@masterg

You mention new IPs getting hype... well KZ2 is not new. The first game is what has me holding back my expectations about KZ2. I remember hearing it claimed as the "Halo Killer" prior to its release, but it certainly wasn't. Hopefully they surpass all expectations and the game rocks.

nirwanda6379d ago (Edited 6379d ago )

I.D's new game tech demo's look great, really interested to see what new wolfenstein looks like too and alan wake and alone in the dark

Andreiy6379d ago

OMG finally someone is intersted in rage and wolfenstein. I think RAGE will be out in 2009 becouse its ID and when they say "when its done" it means 3 years of waiting, as for wolfenstein it was in development for 3 years already and i am pretty sure it will be out in 2008.

rev206379d ago

Splinter cell is the poor man's Metal Gear.

Dark_Vendetta6379d ago

I wouldn't say it this way (because it sounds a little bit as if you are a fanboy), but I have to admit that MGS is way better than Splinter Cell in story telling. I just watched the "old" trailer and I loved it. I just hope this game doesn't get hyped like Halo3 (don't get me wrong, Halo3 was really good and had some interesting features, but it was still way too overhyped) and dissapoints me at the end. One of the reason I bought a PSP was MGS (and it will be the same reason for the Ps3), but the PSP version wasn't extraordinary as I expected it to be. I really hope they take their time to perfect this game. I wouldn't mind to wait until next christmas
BTW: Happy new year @ all!

belal6379d ago

wtf MART u got some big problems u now that ? can u say me one thing that dosent invlovle sony fanboys ? u and the other guy zhuc allways has to say against sony fanboys just keep your mouth shut ;) im serius somebody need tyo ban them , just shut up !!!!

( sry for bad english)

TheMART6379d ago

Is this English at all??? Sell your PS3 and pay for education is my advise!

And dude... My question is a legit one. Asked without any shouting, name calling or whatever you and other PS3 fanboys do all the time.

mintaro6379d ago

Fallout 3 designer expects remaster to revise gunplay to make it closer to Fallout 4

Fallout 3 game designer Bruce Nesmith explains that the upcoming remaster should revise the game's gunplay to be more modern.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro56d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.

New Vegas and Morrowind should have been first!

Christopher64d ago

Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.

OMGitzThatGuy64d ago

MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it.

Christopher64d ago

***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***

I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.

RaidenBlack63d ago (Edited 63d ago )

Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.

RaidenBlack63d ago (Edited 63d ago )

Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.

FTLmaster64d ago

Got a soft spot for Fallout 3, so I'd be down to play this.

-Foxtrot64d ago

It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.

They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.

neutralgamer199264d ago

Would love a complete remake or sequel with enough resources

Abnor_Mal64d ago

The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.

Yui_Suzumiya64d ago (Edited 64d ago )

I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.

anast64d ago

They are only remaking their games that have been streamlined.

DMC2 ranked 2nd and also DmC ranked 3rd?
What a load of BS!

ABizzel165d ago

IMO

6. DMC2 6/10
5. DMC4 7.5/10 (Hated Nero, repeat bosses, Dante was the saving grace but only about half the game)
4. DmC 7.5/10 (solid overall, some great ideas, meh story, dialog sucked, and the director almost killed DMC)
3. DMC1 8.5/10 (all around solid)
2. DMC5 9/10 (carried by Dante & Nero gameplay, I didn’t like V’s, Nero’s better but still not a fan)
1. DCM3 10/10 (chef’s kiss)

Vits65d ago

Well, it worked.

This nothingburger of a opinion article got a lot of views and comments.

Pyrofire9564d ago

WHAT!? who in their right mind would put 2 near the top (not at the bottom) unironically?
I think all of them are worth playing in their own right honestly, except 2 unless you REALLY want to experience the whole series.

FinalFantasyFanatic64d ago (Edited 64d ago )

I honestly don't know what the author was smoking, personally I'd rank DMC3 as no.1, maybe DMC5 as second, DMC1 as third, DMC4 as fourth, and DMC as fifth and DMC2 last. such a bizarre list, mybe the author just has strange taste.

lellkay65d ago

DMC2 anywhere but last is crazy. Awful list overall.

BlaqMagiq165d ago

"Devil May Cry 2 isn’t trash. It’s just misunderstood by a fanbase that doesn’t like change."

This and putting DMC 2 number 2 is all I need to ignore this ranking. DMC2 is absolute trash and it's clear this person doesn't understand exactly why.

Flenter65d ago

For me: 3,1,5,4,2 and then .....Dmc

fsfsxii65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

Why is DmC last? Genuinely curious.

lellkay65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

Dmc is far superior to DMC2 come on

generic-user-name65d ago

"almost 20-year-old series"

It's 24 years old.
