God of War 3 - (PS3) because Kratos is probably the best video game character ever. Because his vengeance is everything. Because this mauling of Greek mythology at least captures the epicness of it all. Because Kratos is a bad-asses bad-ass who actually has an origin story for being a bad-ass besides just being a marketing tool. Although its because a lot of the others don't talk.

Bioshock 2 - (may have Xbox exclusive launch window) - Would you kindly sprinkle in a few more baddies but keep all of that atmosphere for me to drown in?

Resident Evil 5 - (cross platform) because 4 was really good?

Uncharted 2 - (PS3) I had borrowed the first one and played 1/4 or 1/3 of it and liked it a lot, now I just got if for Xmas. First one is very pretty. And Sony needs to turn in another franchise.

Ghostbusters - (cross platform) the other game along with Brutal Legend that got a lot of press because it needed to find a new publisher. I'm guessing both have some problems that we, the fanboys, don't want to know about, because why else would you abandon two games that look sweet?

Mario Luigi RPG 3 - (DS) because the Mario RPG series has been one of the best franchises (well, until the awful Paper Mario for Wii)

Mad World (Wii) stole Sin City's look and put ulta-violence on the Wii. Normally, I would roll my eyes but since the last Wii game of any note was Smash Brothers, it probably has to get a mention. (The Nintendo Wii: sells 7 trillion systems and will go an entire year without realeasing an actual game)

The Beatles game - (cross platform) because money can't buy you love, but it can pay for a really expensive license.

DC Universe Online - (PS3/PC?) may come out in 2009 (but don't count on it) - will probably fail miserably, but they're trying to a super hero MMO that actually takes place in the same living universe as the comics. (Having a Durlan invasion in a comics crossover = having a Durlan invasion in the game = problem! Durlan invasion in game lasts 6 months)

the Agency - (PS3/PC?) an action based MMO? I smell danger, but its worth checking out.

so after a few years of Microsoft eating PS3's babies...is this the year PS3 finally plays the better hand in exclusive titles? Will Nintendo announce over the summer that a Zelda game will come out in 2010 just to prevent people from selling their Wii dust collectors?
