David Gibbon writes, "After the record-breaking year that was 2007, many industry experts predict that 2008 will take gaming yet further."
"This is the first part of a DS feature looking at the games to watch out for in the next 12 months. We plan to look at the top games for each next-gen format, starting with the Sony PlayStation 3 and, in particular, the exclusives that could lure gamers to its doors."
"While 2007 was a year when a lack of any killer app was prevalent, Sony is hoping this year will be different. With a number of PS3 exclusives on the horizon, titles such as Gran Turismo, Metal Gear Solid, Killzone 2 and LittleBigPlanet could help push more gamers towards the Sony format while increasing its market share."
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."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.
Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.
The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.
In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.
Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."
"Feminist Whore" lmao
ill add one more to the list.
drakengard 1.
its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.
ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.
They're not offensive.
And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!
Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
I don't actually think we will see motorstorm in 08, unless it hits in december for the xmas rush. still i think 09 is more likey
Resistance 2,Motorstorm 2----all coming in 2008??
MEGATON
I'm still doubting Motorstorm as the game isn't a year old yet and Final Fantasy XIII because the past games took along time to get released (I think 12 was originally speculated to come out in 2004 or 2005 but ended up coming in late 2006 in North America) and how breakthrough - if all is really in-game - the game looks, I'm stilling thinking 2009.. as much as I truly want to play it this year >_<.
But I can definitely see Resistance 2 making its way this year. Wait a minute... PS3 is getting Final Fantasy III? lol
Out of all those game. I am getting LBP, Final Fantasy XIII, Tekken 6, MGS4, Killzone 2, Resistance 2. And maybe GTA IV. Not getting GT5 or Motorstorm 2, Not a big racing game fan. Burnout will do it for me
and im know im missing alot but that all thats really on my mind right now.
