To know why its worth just take a look at the titles of the end 2007, beggining 2008 and rest 2008. there are great games coming and all them worth a look, 2007 / 2008 will be great for pc gamers but also for console gamers. but yeah PC rules.

Starcraft 2 alone makes it worth to be a PC gamer in 2008.

Also, love the thread. Lots of games to look forward to. Thanks OP.

Hmm Bioware is making a new RPG series. I was kinda hoping for a Baldur's Gate 3.

Spore, SC2 and BF3 are on my list for next year.

Here's some of the '08 games I'm looking forward to that might not be on the list (I haven't gone throught the whole list so you might have already got these:

Lego Universe, Brutal Legend, Blood Bawl, Gothic 4, Kwari, Multiwinia, Sabotage, Saboteur, Totems, They, Subversion and that's about all I can think of right now.

Its an awesome time to be a PC gamer because man there is so much awesome technology and if you can afford it then it is such a blast to upgrade your machine and stuff, plus I was out at the store yesterday to buy Supreme Commander and there were so many other great games out there that I havent yet played and I had a hard time picking up supreme commander and walking out of there with out picking up something else to go with it.

Some awesome games, but it seems you also added alot of junk, and Halo 3 PC will probably come out in the same year as Halo 4, probably 2010.

I havent heard of most of these games-but they do look pretty sick. Are they indie games? In other news, Spore is the highlightfor mehere. That Kaptian _____(forgot other part) has a Sam and Max feel to hit. 2008 looks amazing!!

Spore is more than enough to be the reason to be a PC gamer! It'll probably make its way to consoles though.

BioWare and RPG go hand in hand.

Dragon Age looks bloody awesome. But I don't think it'll come in '08.
