Perhaps here, Things will be different.lol. Classic Niko Belic quote....sorry had to say it
2008 is definitely a year to make or break Sony's proving ground on whether they will retain a third time of dominating the market yet again.
psn id: gingo.... it is beyond me how Super Stardust HD was not included in best downloadable game becasue although flow was very good and revolutionary SSHD was awesome
@MajesticEdge

I hate to point it out to you but MajesticEdge "is" Sarad Jackson. I am not sure what you were reading into when he made the post.
@ PS3 TUM- That's got to be embarassing. You read something wrong I know that for sure.

From the looks of things, I don't think Sony will be winning many awards. I'm not a Sony hater, but 07 was not the greatest year for the PS3.
It was a fantastic year for me as far as PC games go - one of my best. - I played World Conflict (this game is the best), Stalker, Hel.lgate london, Bioshock, Call of Duty 4, Command & Conquer TW 3, Crysis, Team Fortress 2, Portal, the Witcher and dozens more - all top notch.
It was a bad year for me from a console perspective. I got a 40" Bravia but had little quality games (except Unchartered) to play on it. PS3 had mostly mediocre releases. This situation was made worst by (1) Over hyping - some of the games where presented as revolutionary and just ended up as meh... (2) Constant delays and on release we discover they played better on other platforms anyway. (3) Because the other platforms did quite well in comparison - it simply made it less fun for PS3 users this year. (4) As a PS3 Gamer, hearing nothing but Bluray movie crap was giving me the sh.its, when all I wanted was to hear about was top quality (non ported) games on the way.
All of these things should not be as bad this year so Im hoping that by the second half we have a good flow of entertainment coming our way. Here's hoping anyways...
I think fLow is a good design concept with the sixaxis it wasn't an entertaining game, had no replay value, no challenge and quite frankly the most boring game I have ever played.
This is good to hear, but 2008 will be the year of the PS3!
Awesome. Can't wait!
