My wallet is going to melt.

Max Power6510d ago

was just thinking that same thing, its so stacked with high expecting games, but i think LBP is tops on my list for that day.

Overr8ed6510d ago

Fallout vs LBP... hmmm i dont know much about Fallout in general so am going with LBP... Resistance in Nov 4th? Killzone early 09... no God of War this early, most likely later.

thesummerofgeorge6510d ago

I can't wait for God of War 3... That was a cruel trick leaving us on a cliffhanger like that. Although it's pretty sick that we get to see a next gen God of War game. It's one of the most groundbreaking action games ever and definitely one of my favorite video game series.

Skip_Bayless6510d ago

When 2008 is done it will be a better year for games than 2007. The list is gonna change and somethings maybe pushed forward for Sony and we know nothing about Nintendo.

Doppy6510d ago

Did I see God of War listed for a March release. Is it part 3 or a port of the PSP game for the PS2.

fusionboxer6510d ago

I can tell you that these lists have very little weight behind them. An example would be that Unreal Tournament 3 was still up for pre orders on the 360 a day before Unreal Tournament released on the ps3.

Haze was also listed as multi platform and on both pre order lists for a pretty long time.

Basically take gamestop release dates that list games more then two months off as rumors. You know...just so you don't get your hopes up.

Lots of multiplatform games to be had on the xbox 360 I see, All I can say is Ghostbusters better look and preform better on the Ps3 or I'll get it on the xbox 360 too. I want sixaxis support for it, though.

October is going to kill.

Omegasyde6510d ago (Edited 6510d ago )

I thought Skate 2 was definitely going to be coming out this year. Knowing EA, more than likely.

I don't think guitarhero on tour will sell alot, since the people whom already are interested in "band" games have Rockband already. Let alone where are you going to store 2 sets of electonic instruments?

List is also missing tekken 6 + Socom Confrontation (w/ headset).

killinet2476510d ago

Actually Guitar Hero World Tour will most definately sell well. They will have the full bundle(all instruments) the guitar bundle with just the guitar and then just the game seperate. There are tons of loyal Guitar Hero fans. This can be seen by the site known as Scorehero which is a Guitar Hero dedicated site with more than half a million users. Plus many people who started on Guitar Hero and like the challenge of it for playing the hard solo guitars will choose GH over RB simply because GH is much much more difficult.

Omegasyde6510d ago

umm aren't true "loyalist"

tied to Harmonix? Creators of the whole Guitar/video games concept and father of Guitar Hero 2 and 3? Not to be prude but you see my point?

I have RB and Guitar Hero 3. Gh3 has better stock music, but the $$$ they charge for DLC is BS. Sure you get a free track every once in a while, but they are also not going to work with the next guitar hero.

The Brand name can only get you so far.

katana5236510d ago

thats a good question i wonder why they dont have it... but i have to agree with the other guy guitar hero is better than rockband. sure rockband has loads of dlc but im not gonna buy all that or even close...also the free gh3 songs are awesome...and who cares that they arent gonna work with world tour? maybe if i want to play them ill just pop in my gh3 disc. rockband i hate the guitar except for the ones up close to the body of the guitar. i hate the strummer for it too i like to hear the click as conformation that i did strum that note. the drums are okay but there was some registering issues and the drums for gh world tour look amazing. the mic i dont give a crap about...and the music creater looks sweet..love the song selection on guitar hero games not really on rockband...but overal both are quality games and pick what ever floats your boat.

Hagaf226510d ago

Why is this news every time it comes around.... you can go in to any game store and ask to see their preorder list, its not secret and theres nothing newsworthy about it, try it, go to game stop and ask to see their preorder list, youll get the full version of this...

Omegasyde6510d ago

You are right, but for the wrong reasons, being that their release list is ALWAYS subject to change. Nothing is set in stone especially for First party titles in which many might surprisingly appear after E3 for q4.

*prays for Jetmotto 4*

morganfell6510d ago

Exactly. There is always a notebook laying on the counter with titles broken down by platform.

CaptainHowdy6510d ago

there's like 40 games between september and december...and i have 2 buy them all....what a good problem to have...this year will be awesome.

Next ‘BioShock’ Game Changes Leaders After Development Turmoil

The fourth game in the ‘BioShock’ series has been in development for more than a decade

toxic-inferno277d ago

Bioshock is one of my favourites franchises. I love all 3 games and have played each several times. I even have a room in my house that is loosely decorated around the theme of Bioshock (with a Lighthouse, coral models and postcards styled as though they are from both Rapture and Columbus).

And yet I am going to find it extremely difficult to get even remotely excited about any future episode in the series after all the problems this has had in its development cycle.

Leave the franchise alone. Remaster them again if you have to. Then put whatever talent you have to use on something brand new.

Furesis277d ago

Since ken levine isn't involved i'm not surprised what's going on. i'm more excited for his next game which looks like bioshock. Yet he still works under take2 and they are making bioshock 4 without him, strange situation.

toxic-inferno277d ago

Yes. Judas. Looks brilliant, but it's one of those games that seems to never have had a release date. Instead it's had release windows that keep getting pushed back.

Once it's ready, I'll be there for it though. Ken Levine is an excellent developer.

I get the feeling he dissolved Irrational Games simply so that 2k couldn't tell him what to do. It seems it will pay off, but I feel sorry for those who worked as part of Irrational before it was dissolved, who hadn't independently made a name for themselves.

ActualWhiteMan276d ago

He didn’t even want to make 2, that’s why they did it without him.

Rebel_Scum277d ago

tbh it wouldnt be a Bioshock game without development hell. They all had it.

Michiel1989276d ago

bioshock 2 was 2.5 years after 1, so much of a development hell it was......

-Foxtrot276d ago

"Remaster them again if you have to"

Well apparently they were doing a remake but that got cancelled

Relientk77277d ago

It sucks this game is in development hell because I love BioShock and would love a 4th game. I hope it turns out great, but I guess we'll see.

P_Bomb277d ago

Love Bioshock. It’s too bad what’s going on. At least we have Judas.

Yui_Suzumiya276d ago (Edited 276d ago )

It's been in development hell since 2014. This is nothing new. It saddens me because it's one of my favorite series. At this point, Judas may end up releasing first.

BABI-PANGPANG276d ago

Bioshock 4 (if it ever comes out) will probably still look and play like a Bioshock game, but without Kevin, it might miss that spark that made the originals so special. Honestly, Judas might end up feeling more like the real spiritual successor.

Video Game Franchises in Danger of Being Forgotten

The gaming industry moves at such a pace that it’s not surprising we’ve seen countless franchises fall into obscurity over the years.

Im surprised that a game with a heritage of Medal of Honor is in this list.

cthulhucultist543d ago

There is a rumour that Driver 1 & 2 remasters will be released for Switch and presumably for other systems as well.

https://www.gamingbible.com...

Not sure however whether this results into new games in the near future.

HellspawnPR1981543d ago

Ninja Gaiden? Splinter Cell? Tenchu? Virtua Fighter? Killer Instinct? Killzone?

DefenderOfDoom2543d ago

I would very much enjoy
a new dedicated single player Killzone campaign. With a fun multi-player.

cthulhucultist543d ago

Tenchu and Killer Instict would be great indeed!

Unfortunately new Killzone game does not seem to be in the works

Virtua Fighter is going to receive a new entry!

https://www.dualshockers.co...

Splinter Cell is likely to be one of the remasters launching next year (not sure whether this has to do anything with the remake previously announced)

https://toronto.ubisoft.com...

HellspawnPR1981543d ago

Yeah, read the news about a new Virtua Fighter and I am so ready for it. Splinter Cell at this point I don't believe anything Ubisoft says plus I don't think modern day Ubisoft can make a decent stealth game. They will likely fuck it up.

Inverno543d ago

Basically everything at this point as companies have no concern with preservation.

Why Guerrilla Games Shouldn't Abandon the Killzone Series

Hugely disappointingly, it seems that Guerrilla Games, developers of the Killzone and Horizon series, may be done with Killzone for good.

1 was fine, overhyped as a " halo" killer
2 was a graphical beast at the time, and felt heavy
3 was good a refinement of 2 but not much else. weird audio issues environment were to quiet
shadow fall was pretty but bland

OtterX560d ago (Edited 560d ago )

Shadowfall had great Multiplayer though. Too bad the campaign was meh at best. It did have the occasional great moment sprinkled in.

TheNamelessOne560d ago (Edited 560d ago )

I played through 2/3 multiple times. I played through the original once, but it felt pretty lukewarm for me. I couldn't be bothered to beat Shadow Fall. I got a couple hours in and just went "I'm done". Never touched it again. It was awesome on the tech side, being a launch title, but it didn't even match up to the first game when it came to actually having fun playing it.

Rude-ro560d ago

3 in 3d was an amazing experience to be had.
Although not many experienced it as intended for good reasons.

just_looken559d ago

You forgot the ai advancements on the playstation 2 killzone one you could have a full team of bots doing everything even playing the objective that was a big thing.

In killzone 2 they always flanked you and when available used the high ground.

Playing killzone 2 no hud 5.1 audio was/is awesome

MDTunkown560d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72560d ago

I dont mind if someone else takes up the mantle for the KZ franchise. We are several years removed from the first game. It certainly could use a remake to gauge interest in the rest of the series. I know it has its fans... Im thinking of how a proper reboot can rekindle that old dormant flame and bring in a new generation of fans in the process.

just_looken559d ago

You forgot killzone mercenaries on the ps vita but it was the worst selling sony game for awhile there.

Yui_Suzumiya559d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast560d ago

They should let it go or sell it. No use spending millions on this project.

LucasRuinedChildhood560d ago

Would like a new IP before Horizon 3. Just because games take so long to make these days.
