That's quite a good list, but you forgot about Sam and Max: Season 2.

You have got to be kidding me?With all those titles lined up,the only problem is that a PC is only good when you're playing with high graphics...to get the high graphics you need deep pockets....sth i lack and thats why i say X360 rocks.

Fatalfist, you don't need to upgrade your pc now. I think people forget that there is no timeline for the pc and games have a longer lifespan than console games. You can basically get a pc in 2 years and play Crysis maxed out with tons of amazing mods to keep you playing for a very long time.

How about mentioning that while its taken years for the nintendo/playstation/x-box systems have taken years to get to High Def games, but we've had 'em for a while now.

The Witcher wasn't exactly well known either, at least not like The Orange Box, for instance.

MAFIA II

I Can't Wait.

While Mafia#1 now is on sale for almost nothing, it still gives you a gaming experience better than many modern games, so I can't wait for it to come out.

Other wishes are; GTA IV for PC (delayed, still it has'nt become available for X-box & PS3 yet) and - a REMADE Scarface (one that can be playable in Vista) with some other updates, like controller setup, ability to jump, better handling for cars etc..

All this is great... but I have one thing to say.

If you're a sports game fan you're still stuck with crappy last-gen games.

Hopefully they will release next-gen sports games next year but who knows...

To me, what makes PC gaming rad is the easier and better ability to mod the games (and easier to upgrade hardware and not be stuck with a proprietary game system). Last game console I had was a Magnavox in 1978, and at the time it served it's purpose as PCs didn't have games that good then. Today, anything that can play on a console, a PC can play (and mod) better, so doesn't make sense to buy and upkeep both.

Reasons:

Spore

Spore

Spore

Spore

Erops (Spore backwards)

Tom Clancy's Endwar

Spore

Empire: Total War

Universe at War

Spore

I'll think of some others later but my cardboard box is nice and warm at the moment so I am going to go to sleep.

Goodbye.

P.S. If you hadn't noticed I am rather excited about Spore.

Wow thanx for posting this! I did not know that there will be so much PC game for the 2008! But too bad there is not that much big name in there. Besides Project origin, Mafia 2, C&C 3 expansion, Rage, Starcraft 2, Empire Total War, Spore, Warhammer, Guild Wars 2, Far Cry (I hope it retains the magic even if it wasn't developed by Crytek), Fallout, Brothers in Arms. Wow it turns out 2008 still have some big title. Always glad to see PC gaming flex its muscle.

Hopefully Halo 3 and Mass Effect will be added to this list of 2008 games by next year christmas. Cant wait for next year's E3 to see what other games will be put out.

If any of these games have Eidos as publisher no matter how good they are, Im not getting it.
