GameSpot writes, "2007 will go down in history as an amazing year for video games. In fact, there are so many big-name, exciting games that it's hard to keep track of them all. That's where Game Watch 07 comes in. We've compiled a dynamically updated list to keep you up-to-date on the biggest games being released in the latter part of 2007 so you can make sure you can keep up with new updates and get ready to order them once they hit store shelves. Hope you've been saving those pennies--there are a lot of big games on the horizon later that will take a bite out of your wallet, so use the Hardware and Wishlist sections to help you plan out how much you'll need to save up for all the games you're looking forward to, and our Game Finder section to help you zero in on which of these games is right for you".

Didnt find Uncharted .... Screw the list

C_SoL6044d ago

& they forgot killzone 2. ya fu(k this list even though there is still great games on it.

TheMART6044d ago

So when exactly in 2007 will KZ2 release???

All PS3 games are delayed into 2008, so no greatness for PS3 fans this year.

Uncharted, I can understand why its not in the list. It seems to shape up like a good game, but if its really really great people are probably not sure about yet. Can see where its coming from. Lair should be over 90% rated according to Sony, a killer app/system seller.

We all know it was dissapointing. Metacritics average reviews:

54%

Heavenly Sword. Hyped up also as a killer app/system seller.

Rated average as:

81%

Motorstorm: hyped up...

82%

Even not Resistance, although a solid game at what, 86% average or so.

This list still is subjective on the other hand, according to your personal preferences

@TheMART at Xboxkings

Please stop talking out your ass.

I have both Systems. So far I have more 360 games. The last two game I have bought were BioShock and Halo 3. I might buy Mass Effect before Xmas, But thats it. After that there isn't a single game for the 360 I fell I must have. Of course I will get Gears of War 2, but who knows when that's comming out.

For the PS3 it's the other way around. I have only bought 4 games so far plus a ton of PSN titles.

But before and after Xmas the PS3 will take so much cash from me.

This is my list. So Marty you tell me what I should by instead and what titles you think suck on the list.

Ratchet & Clank (Have loved every game in that series)
Uncharted (Have loved every Naughty Dog game so far and this looks awesome)
Call of Dudy 4 (Looks so good on both consoles)
Haze (Have Free Radical ever made a mad game?)
Mass Effect (Looks good and I think ill buy it)
Gran Turismo Prologue (Best looking car game ever)
Unreal 3 (Possibly the best looking console game so far. Damn it looks good)
LittleBigPlanet (PSN release still set before Xmas. Most innovative game of the year)

After Xmas I know I will be getting this list.

MSG4
KZ2
Final Fantasy
Gran Turismo 4
LittleBigPlanet Full version
GTA4. (Will be getting the Blu-ray version)

q:

anyway, both you marts talk sh!t...

The True Gamer6044d ago

Are you kidding either you not a true gamer or you do not keep up with the videogame news. There are tons of great games for the 360 next year. Splinter Cell 5, Ninja Gaiden 2, Fable 2, Lost Odyssey, Halo Wars, GTA 4 extra content, Alan Wake, Too Human, and maybe GOW 2.Plus all the cool multi platform games. DMC 4, Star War: Force Unleashed, Soul Calibur 2,Mecenaries 2, etc. SO, don't be posting stuff and not have your info right, there are just as many good exclusive 360 games next year as the PS3.

Dude shut up the mart aren't u 32? THATS WEIRD, GET A LIFE AND GET OF UR 360 IT SUCKS SO BAD. GET OVER THE GAY SPACE SHOOTERS. MICROSOFT SUCKS. AS AN AMERICAN I KNOW THIS, YOU PROBALLY THINK THEIR KOOL CAUSE YOU DON;T EVEN HAVE RUNNING WATER. GOD SOME OF U PEOPLE ARE DUMB MORONS IF U CAN'T REALIZE THE XBOX 360 DOES NOT HAVE A CHANCE IN H#LL OF COMING IN ANYTHING BUT 3RD PLACE THIS GENERATION. IF IT WASN'T GOING TO, IT SHOULD HAVE SOLD MORE CONSOLE THAN JUST 15 MILLION WITH ALL THE BIG GAMES RELEASED. 4 years from now PS3 will be selling at its peek and the 360 will be non- existent... wonder why? Because Microsoft doesn't make hardware like Sony.... DUUHHHH. And if they do its so defective they have to throw out a 1 billion dollar waranty so they don't have to do a massive recall. I'm 21, have a 360, and it is trash. Seriously it is for 17 year old that like bloody shooters. THATS ALL THEY CAN MAKE. You get so much more out of PS3 including a future!! PS3 FTW!!

Gamertag: get shank d

Splinter Cell 5-compared to metal gear 4, its trash

Ninja Gaiden 2-heavenly sword raped it before it came out, and it may go multiplatform

Fable 2-LOL

Lost Odyssey-fake final fantasy

Halo Wars-shared with pc, and its something like a jock starcraft

GTA 4 extra content-how much extra? 50 million worth? naw, and its multiplat, and the next gta WILL be a ps3 exclusive, again on its home

Alan Wake-Wow is the 180 lucky to have pc as a friend

Too Human-basically the same as mass effect

GOW 2-didnt you know the first one maxed out the 180, if another comes out there just might be downgrades even from that, which didnt look even all that great

MULTIPLATFORM:

DMC 4-how much money did D#cksoft spend to get this one to go multiplat? and it WILL be better looking on its native, also more will buy it on its native

Star War: Force Unleashed-i really dont believe it will be all that great

Soul Calibur 2-? i thought it was soul caliber 4, and playstation is most likely the lead platform, so who needs the box

Mecenaries 2-how much money did D#cksoft spend to aquire this one? TOOOOOO Much

are you on crack? you said that 180 has as many games as ps3 comming out, maybe you should check wikipedia, or some other of the lists, have you not seen e3 and TGS this year, sony will murder in 2008, ESPECIALLY with exclusives, they are introducing games in 2008 that will turn the tide that many believe is lost for ps3, and will shut up dumb developers like the CRYTEK guy that just says stuff that he is truely not up to date with, as in seeing several games that have overwhelmed his precious crysis, so have a good night fixing what you wrote

When did Heavenly Sword rape anything?

Heavenly Sword is a weak game, and there is no talk of Ninja Gaiden 2 going multiplatform.

Spliter Cell games have been right up there top notch with the MGS series. They are both great games in their own right. Both will sell consoles in their own right. However, the biggest buzz is around MGS4 because it comes out before SC5.

Your other evaluations of games are junk.

The latest "AAA" game that your camp has been trumpeting has fallen below scores of Blue Dragon and Eternal Sonata. Folklore is getting a 76 on MetaCritic with Blue Dragon coming in at 78 and Eternal Sonata coming in at 79.

THE_JUDGE6044d ago

How about you push Bill Gates c*ock out of your face for a second and realize that MGS own SC in everyway possible. Thats not even a comparison, Kojima is a legend, name someone who has worked on SC. The MGS series has unparalleled quality. As for Heavenly Sword, it was originally supposed to be a xbox game and MS passed on it so stop being jealous. This game is spectacular and I know that you have never played it, you've just watched trailers and seen screen shots. No more talking for you until you have experience the game. As for you use of AAA, there's no such thing, there are good games and bad games and if you have to rely on other people to tell you what they are, please pull your lip over your head and swallow.

ry-guy6044d ago

Sorry. I have played Heavenly Sword. Which should really be named "Heavenly Button Smashing". The game is a joke. There is a reason Microsoft passed on it. Stop crying that Sony has to pick through Microsoft's rejected pile.

As for Splinter Cell? Hmmm let's see. How about the man's name attached to it: Tom Clancy. Splinter Cell, when it arrived, was heralded for it had all the features that players WANTED in Metal Gear Solid but were not getting. They are both GREAT series of games in their own right.

Myth6044d ago

Heavenly Sword is a weak game

I stopped reading there. Your credibility went out the window.

The True Gamer6043d ago

You really must be a ps3 fanboy. To believe all what you said. And no I am not a fanboy. I will be buying a PS3 next year. And I will have the best gaming experience next year cause I will have both PS3 and 360. While your simple minded fanboyism mentality, will be stuck on the PS3 only and missing out on some great games. True gamers do not get caught up in just one console. They just play great games and all three system will have great games now and in the future. And I am going to enjoy the ride.

Nothing but great memories with all these games! Playing Left for dead series during the college years with friends was the best.

Skull5212018d ago

Love to see titles coming to BC with enhancements. Would love even more to see Half Life 3.

gangsta_red2019d ago

To not have another Left 4 Dead is straight up criminal.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH2019d ago

So many memories of throwing my controller with Portal lol.

How Valve released five of its greatest games in a single day

The year is 2007. Console owners tap their fingers in barely contained impatience. For years they have been starved of Valve's delicious, full-bodied courses, forced to watch from the bleachers as Valve mixes a unique blend of kinetic first-person with extraordinary tech. Besides a brief dalliance with the original Xbox and the PlayStation 2 - which produce pale imitations of its best work - Valve has remained faithful to the PC.

And then, in a flash, five of them arrive at once; neatly packaged morsels for a new generation reared on Microsoft's & later Sony's consoles. Five games, all in one orange box. Valve serves the PC too, for it is October 18 - a day of celebration - and everyone should feast.

Man 2007 was a great year for gaming.

OpenGL2383d ago

Valve didn't really "release" 5 of its greatest games in a single day, Half-Life 2 came out 3 years before The Orange Box. In no other context do we talk about a port being the "release" of a game.

2383d ago
Fist4achin2383d ago

The orange box was an excellent release. I don't think Valve will do much beyond online only games now.

AuraAbjure2383d ago

Thanks for making the source 2 game engine valve it's legit.

Valve reflects on The Orange Box, ten years later

Robin Walker discusses the impact of Portal, Team Fortress 2 and more.

pwnsause_returns2391d ago

shut up valve....give me HL3....

FallenAngel19842391d ago

Back when Valve made a lot of great titles

-Foxtrot2390d ago

Little cheeky to talk about it when you know we're still waiting for Half Life 3...the Orange Box included Episode 2 and is still left unfinished story wise to this day.

At this rate we better get a second Orange Box. Half Life 3, Half Life Remake (Black Mesa Mod), TF3 or L4D3 and the HL spin offs like Blue Shift.

Reefskye2389d ago (Edited 2389d ago )

Don't know what valve are going to do with Half Life after Mike Laidlaw posted the short version of Episode 3 in August and changed the names and genders.
