Not sure if anyone mentioned it, but Heavy Rain will not be coming to PC. Sony picked it up as a PS3 exclusive.

Lonelynight

Didn't that game get a 3.5 from GS?

No.....You must be talking about a different game. Heavy Rain is from the makers of Indigo Prophecy and nowhere near completion. They haven't released any new info on the game for a long time.

Reasons why it´s worth to be a PCgamer in 2008 are thousands, but reasons why it´s worth to be a XBOXer, or ps2 player are at least one more time.

Really nice thread congratulations. And i who thought the adventure genre was dead. Thanks a bunch.

It's worth being a PC owner not just in 2008 but all times. Consoles are good too, they get a lot of exclusive titles but that is about it.

Thanks for the list, Too above Consol games are still good and there are alot more. But they just cant replace the keyboard and mouse. Pc Cost alot more though in terms of having to upgrade. Back on topic, it looks like 2008 will be a good year for us PC Gamers.

except that PC's have better graphics, mods, larger online mods (64 player for COD2...etc), they have the ability to use the keyboard and any controler they choose....really the list goes on and on.

Something about hardcore gamers :D Consoles are for the more casual "new" gamers. Thats becaus there are not much games for hardcore gamers on consoles. Take god of war, it looks fun but there isn't mutch to it. We hardcore gamers realy like to use the brain extensivlely, trough realy hardcore games like: 1: extreme puzzle games (don't play them but games like myst and uru aren't on consoles i think). Puzzle can be realy tiresome and can give great sattisfaction when you complete one. 2: Hardcore strategy games like starcraft, warcraft, civilization. Thes games are realy exclusive imo, much more work to it then a"ratchet & clanck" game for instance :D. Also these games cost a lot of time to master becaus of the steep learning curve. But that again makes it more fun and versatile then most games. But i sense great weakness comming, take series like X-com and settlers, they make there games more simple to make it more appealing for the casual gamer. Still the real hardcore gamer would play the realy old versions of a serie just becaus it's better. And that brings us to -> 3. Old games, there are so darn many old but realy fun games, most of them go way in deeper then any regular console game. Try them out you can download most of them legaly for free. try out elite 3 (frontier 2) or Pizza tycoon 4: Still the most and the best Mmorpg's, E.v.e online, WoW: didn't play any mmorpg's on a console though. But after years of experience i can bet all my wives on it, there isn't one that can beat thos 2 :D. 5: God games like sim city, ceasar, rome also won't sattisfie the casual gamer, also to complex for the gamer who just wants to button bash some mob and see some neat special effects :D. I just love PC games, and beleve me, if someone just takes a little bit of there console game time and put it in some hardcore PC games time sooner or later he gets addicted to one of the genres i mentioned. I'v seen it happen a lot. Also it doesn't nececarely mean a hardcore gamer puts more time in playing games, but he certainly puts more effort in mastering a game. Thats what we like mastering difficult games, and wherever we can show our skills on the internet.

Damn. I've gotta start saving... one thing that popped out real good is that Mafia 2 is coming. Then there's Far Cry 2, Enemy in Sight, Project Offset, Alan Wake, Operation Flashpoint 2, Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway, Splinter Cell 5, Assasin's Creed, Armed Assault 2.... man, there's too much games!

It'snot looking good for RPGs in 2008. Fallout 3 and Dragon Age are the only games that are worthwhile.

The list is looking really good. And to think not long ago the consol fanboys said PC gaming is dying! 2007 is a great year for PC gaming and it looks like 2008 will be great as well.

Whoa! Have you just mentioned EVERY game on the PC for 2008 or what? I don't even know most of them! Still, it's awesome to play on PCs!

It's really interesting seeing how different the graphics are for each game...

The only issue is: Can your PC support all this games? And I say to my self: While my Overcloked PC support Starcraft 2, there is nothing more I want to play in 2008.

I said it earlier but i'll say it again. Please list Aion: Tower of Eternity. It's being hyped as the visually best MMO coming out being that it is using the Far cry engine. It's slated for a Q2 2008 release

On a side note, Warhammer Online wil be terrible :O

I'm glad to see the PC still has a decent lineup, since I just put together a new gaming rig. I was worried the PC would become the "world of warcraft machine," next to the new consoles.

The sad thing is that half of these games will be pushed back to 2008 or cancelled. The one's that do come out in 07 will all come out at the same time.

After almost 2 years of WOW, I'm hesitant to play another MMO. I hope Star Trek and Stargate are decent. I wish they'd make a decent Stargate FPS though. That license is perfect for a shooter.
