Another lame most anticipated games list.
The Frizz Nizz | 5:30 PM on 01.26.2008 3 comments


Alright, so I was bored today and so I decided to try my hand at blogging. Therefore, here is my top ten most anticipated games list of 2008.

10 Splinter Cell: Conviction
I have loved Splinter Cell with a passion ever since the first one. In that game, I felt like a ninja, a rare feat in video games. Now after I get Conviction, I will get to be a ninja in real life without the black jumpsuit. YEA!!!

But in all serious terms, this game looks like assasin's creed in the modern world without the hokey story, which is a very good thing.

9 Brawl
The ultimate party game is coming, and once again, I will be able to even more epicly fail against my friends than I fail in guitar hero 3 (3% on expert of Knights of Cydonia. WOOT!!!). But anyways, this game just looks plain fun, and since everyone and their dog owns a Wii, this game won't be too hard to find for us Wiiless people.

8 FF XIII Versus
As the next FF game comes ever closer to release, the fanboys have begun salivating over XIII, but personally, I am much more excited about Versus simply because XIII looks like a rehash of every other FF game while Versus has a much more interesting and unique tone to it. I really think that Versus will have a better story and gameplay and everything over XIII, but it will never beat VI.

7 Tiberium
It's made by EA. I know. But maybe, just maybe, the devil will spare us the injustice of having a cool looking FPS not fail epicly. I mean, in this game, you can do a tactical slide thingy. It's awesome!!!

6 GTA IV
I have played very little GTA over the years, which is a shame. But let me put it this way, I can't stop watching the move up ladies trailer. And if that trailer is that addicting, think about the game itself.

5 Fallout 3
I was sold on this game in the trailer when they said "War, war never changes." You don't even have to tell me that Bethesda made this game, or that it is the sequel to some of the best Western RPGs ever, or that it has an awesome combat system in it, or that Liam Neeson does the voice over for your father. The future is here my friends. Video games are art and this will be a prime example of it.

4 Spore
Will Wright is a genius. He's made us God of the house, the streets, the people. Now the Universe. I love this guy.

3 HL2 Episode 3
It's episode 3. It's got Alyx Vance and DOG. It's the end of the story. It's got Alyx Vance and DOG. Need I say more? (@ Valve. Please don't kill Alyx, please please please.....)

2 Mafia 2
I loved mafia. Let me correct myself: Mafia is one of the best freakin games ever made. End of story. Yea, driving around got kinda boring, but here's to the sequel of one of the first examples of video game art. (And now that they've added a cover system, the game won't be so freakin' hard).

1 Alan Wake
Yes my friends, this game trumps every other game out their on my list. And why? Because it looks like one of the most original, brilliant, scar, and awesome games ever. EEEEVVVVEEEEERRRR. (Wow I'm an idiot with typing). Simply put, this game looks like it will be the next great work of video game art, even moreso than FF or MGS or HL2. And if there is any cynicism left in you, remember this:


These guys made MAX PAYNE.

'nuff said.

The End.

Who are you and wtf is an Alan Wake.
The Frizz Nizz's Destructoid Blog
@ Aertyr. Thanks for the welcome. I thought people knew about Alan Wake, but apparently not. It's about a writer in the Pacific NW who has insomnia and whose horror tales start to become a reality around him at night. To put it frankly, it looks awesome.

BTW, I would think that Remedy's credentials (aka Max Payne) would mean that you would jump on this title, but it seems you have not played it. Go buy it off of steam. NOW. IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!!!

THANK GOD this is short, i fuckin hate long lists.
The Frizz I completly agree with you on max payne,
Alan WAKE WILL BE THE SHITZ. But really hope it comes out on time, and a DAMN shame of Microsuck decides to cancel it.
