2007 games you're lookign forward to/wanting

Spoony Bard: Nope. It's an Xbox 360 exclusive. Namco said that porting an Xbox 360 game to the PS3 was too difficult, so the project was canceled.

That is not exactly true. There was no cancellation. During this TGS, Namco did announce there will be PS3 Katamari game, it will just be different one from the Xbox 360 "Beautiful Katamari" game. So it will have a different title, etc. It had nothing to do with difficulties in development.

Furthermore, Namco Bandai is one of the largest software developer/publishers in Japan. And they have plenty of developers with PS3 experience and titles in development for the PS3, like Tekken 6 and Soul Calibur IV (also will be on 360) Eternal Sonata PS3 version coming in Spring 2008. In fact, it is odd for Namco Bandai to do only 360 version of titles, especially with games with strong Japanese catering like Katamari, since the 360 is practically non-existant in the Japanese marketplace.

Apparently Lair got some pretty bad reviews. Terrible control's beeing the highlights.

What I can think of at the moment...

Xbox360 - Naruto Rise of a Ninja, Ace Combat 6, Guitar Hero 3 and The Orange Box. I'm not sure, but I think Virtua Fighter comes out in a few months... so that is another.
Wii - Bleach Shattered Blade and the Guilty Gear game that is coming out soon...

*oops, wrong thread... I guess the whole thread disappeared... Sorry for gravedigging*



May as well put my post here, anyhow, since I gravedug, may as well make it somewhat worth it:

I had a long reply here, and it disappeared... In any case:

Now that Uncharted is out and I have Rock Band (shared with a friend), I have nothing really to look forward to on PS3, unless I get the PS3 version of Unreal Tournament... If I get the PC version, it wont' run well on my PC, but I'll be able to use the editor and transfer my levels to my friend's PS3 and play them on there... Unreal Ed stuff being usable on PS3 is a really big strongpoint, since It means I can show off my level building, modeling, special effect, and texturing work on a console, something I'd never have been able to do before. I'm just not sure I want to be the one who buys the PS3 version, since that's buying the game twice, essentially. That releases on PS3 next month (PC version came out Tuesday)

As for after that?

Crisis Core whenever the criminally slow adaptation teams get done with it, hopefully this year, or Q1 of 2008.

Little Big Planet Q1 of 2008

Home (not a game of course) Q1 of 2008

Alone in the Dark Q1 of 2008

Orange Box hopefully before MGS4, though I may break down and get it for the PC. I'd just like to share it with others, which I wouldn't have been able to do before, but with my new Laptop, I may... Provided the integrated graphics card doesn't suck...

MGS4 in April 2008

Killzone 2 in Q2 of 2008

Eternal Sonata Q2 of 2008

Silent Hill 5 in Fall 2008 (Akira Yamaoka told me that personally as a target)

White Knight Story sometime in 2008

Resident Evil 5, maybe early 2009

Eyedentify whenever it comes out

Afrika, when they start turning it into a game rather than a bunch of cool shots of amazing animals (and pretty horrible water)

Final Fantasy XIII, perhaps in this dimension, maybe in another.

[Mr. SmartyPants]

I've really been looking into Mass Effect and Assassin's Creed.

I think I'll get Mass Effect soon.

[Fish and Chips]

Alan Wake
Assassin's Creed
The Orange Box
Sam and Max: Season One
