John Gaudiosi, January 1, 2008 -- While there are still a lot of games that haven't been announced yet, with the new year, it's worth taking a look at some of the games that are going to be ringing in the cash when the ball drops for 2009. 2008 was a stellar, record-setting year in the videogame industry, and 2008 should top those records (assuming Wii demand continues). There are certainly plenty of killer apps coming out on the software side.
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.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
If you are looking for an awesome RPG, look no further. Steam is offering a significant discount on its Fallout Franchise Bundle.
"You can get all Fallout games in a bundle at a significant 20% discount on Steam. Individually, all these games add up to $244.91. With the discount, you can get them all for $195.91. That is $49 less than the original price. Quite a significant discount for such a popular franchise."
😊 😂 🤣 😐 - But why?
Just wait for a sale and get most if not all of it for a fraction of that price.
20% off...lol
The original games have been given out for free by Amazon for GOG and Epic, 76 is free now on Amazon if you have prime, Epic has also given out new Vegas for free and 4 has gone down to pretty cheap prices. 194 bucks is a total ripoff when you can get these games individually for less. Don't forget cd keys might sell em for a dollar less at times too. Come on man, us cheapskates won't touch anything near or above 100 lolz
heh ghostbuster? cant really imagine that it's a 'killer' app
there is no LBP
Nice list, but i do agree with Peace LBP should be ut there too.
a killer app is something that causes alot of hardware sales and justifies buying a system, and although all those games will sell alot none of them are killer apps
I have a question for you two. Why should LBP be on a list of Killer games? I would like to know what you think. I see LBP as way to get people and friends connected online with PS3 but other than that it is a cut and past 3D side scroller.
I thought the list was fair.
edit: @FamilyGuy LOL your bing a smart @ss. Most people that are actually interested or even know what the game is think it mite be fun. I doubt it will sell consoles completely. I'm not saying that because I'm a 360 fan (I'm sure you know I am.) But I too have been looking and waiting for more than a year for a game to make me want to buy a PS3 LBP is not one of them. I guess I would play that game with my lil girl. She has earned bout 300 achivments from Viva Pinyata so whois to say should not like Playing LBP. LBP is no killer App sorry dude but "NO".
