Hah, it was mine too.. first and last for a long time (through no fault of Chu Chu's though).
Dunno if I'd buy it on XBLA now
Maybe it was the year of the Wii, since it was infinitely more popular than the other two.
I have all four of those games and yes, I'm extremely excited to see what they're doing next.
What's becoming increasingly obvious is that there's no decisive, runaway winner for 2008, perhaps in the sense that 2007 had Bioshock.
Says a lot about the quality of games we've seen across all 3 systems.
Every game that will be released in 2009 has already been announced. No games which have been announced for 2009 will be delayed or canned. %D
Sorry Wii, you're just not a major enough console for this website to acknowledge your existence. Better luck next year!
Yeah, the graphics are way too awesome for this game to suck
Damn you're right.. that Halo expansion had better be like the best game ever
Totally, the point of this piece isn't how many the Wii is outselling its competition by, just that it's an awful lot

Gunstar Heroes with online co-op.. I'd get a gold subscription for that.

Yeah, no thanks.
Killer Instinct was a pretty good game, but I'd much rather see a new Kameo in 09
Thread where people denounce games they've never played on the basis of arbitrary numeric scores.
:D High five for mentioning World of Illusion

"This oversimplification causes many problems, although none more destructive than the feeling of absolute boredom you get less than 30 short minutes after you start playing - as by then you’ve seen just about seen everything the game has to offer."

"Ultimately, Wii Music is the equivalent of Leonardo da Vinci saying he’ll paint the Mona Lisa for you, but then deciding to challenge himself by using a Etch A Sketch. Yes, I am sure the cleve...
There were plenty of games worthy of your time on the Wii this year, you just didn't bother getting off your sequel-stuffed ass to look for them. It saddens me greatly that you were too 'leary' to try No More Heroes, it was one of 2008's best.
