IGN writes: "2009 is pretty much guaranteed to be a great year for PlayStation gamers everywhere. The amount of great games on the horizon is staggering, and we're not even out of January yet. The PSP's lineup also looks strong, despite the relatively short list of announced titles.
With so many great games and possibilities in store for us this year, which games should you spend your precious time following and what news should you be looking forward to? That's where we come in. We're going to highlight the biggest of the big games coming out this year, focusing on the titles that publishers have sworn are going to hit before the end of the year. This list doesn't include guesses of any sort, only stuff that the publishers have 100% confirmed are coming out this year. So don't count Gran Turismo 5 out just yet, but also don't hold your breath. "
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
LucasArts gave Jango Fett his own game in 2002, and it pulled Star Wars into a much dirtier, rougher, and more interesting corner of the galaxy.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
Can't wait.
Hmm, if the PS3 really does come down in price to $299, it would be great news for anyone whose right in that |if only it was a little cheaper| area. More gamers = better for everyone.
and with plans to add a 360 this will be a very happy gaming year for me
:)
"2009 is pretty much guaranteed to be a great year for PlayStation gamers everywhere. The amount of great games on the horizon is staggering, and we're not even out of January yet."
Games I'm looking forward to from that list:
Exclusives:
- God of War III
- Infamous
- Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
- Fat Princess
- Killzone 2
- MAG
Multi:
- Batman: Arkham Asylum
- Brutal Legend
- Saboteur
- The Beatles Game
- BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams
- Skate 2 (wasn't on the list)
- COD:MW2 (also wasn't on the list)
Wow, would have been easier to list the games I'm not interested in.
And even the ones I'm not looking forward still look like they'll be great games.
It's too bad I most likely won't even get to try half of these games.
Another year goes to the ps3.
360 sucks.
Disagrees = Confirmed number of trolls.
