PSN At Home's Justin Edwards and SteveFrench9 have done it again with a Top 10 Most Anticipated Games of 2008. Check it out.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.
Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.
The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.
In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.
Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."
"Feminist Whore" lmao
ill add one more to the list.
drakengard 1.
its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.
ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.
They're not offensive.
And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!
Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.
It has exclusives that you need a PS3 to play. Not a PC.
Compare that to the 360's "amazing" PC60 Lineup.
FACT: PS3 OWNERS will be paying the best games of 2008.
Guess what else this means BOTS?? In 2009... you've still got Gran Turismo 5, 2 Final Fantasy games, 2 Rockstar Exclusives, Infamous, Heavy Rain and GOD OF WAR III to look forward to in 2009!!!! hahahaha PWNAGE on the way... (there are sooo many more coming this year and next we don't even know about yet... where's Afrika?)
two runner ups were Fallout 3, and Force Unleashed at number 8 they had the audacity to put haze their, then home was listed in the top ten they both should have been switched Fallout 3 and Force Unleashed deserve to be in place of home and haze
the rest of the list isnt that bad though
For those who don't want to watch the video which is really the best really. Commentary is pretty boring and the sound quality sucks. Sorry psnathome if you are offended maybe i am just used to seeing videos from ign and game trailers.
runner ups were: star wars force unleashed, army of two, Rainbow 6 vegas 2 and Fall out 3. (Decent runner ups imo except for farcry should have made the cut before battlefield and haze)
10.Farcry 2
09.Haze
08.Battlefield Bad Company
07.Gran Turismo 5
06.GTAIV
05.Killzone 2
04.Home
03.Resistance 2
02.Little Big Planet
01.Metal Gear Solid 4 (Big suprise)
Pretty good list (better than the D pad one where magically every 360 exclusive made it in the cut lol) in my opinion except for the battle field and haze i would replace that with fallout 3 and probably white knight chronicles but hey thats my opinion
the vid takes ages to load. Haze actually looks like a pretty good game.I haven't really looked at it until now. Why is home on the list?. Its not really a game. I have a very bad feeling that Killzone2 will be delayed until next year.
