In July 2008, E3 was held, the largest convention in the world where hardware, electronic devices and game consoles come together in an effort to remember the past year and discover what awaits them in the coming months. Above all, it was at E3 2008 where game developers talked about their previously released games and the ones they will release soon.
So far, PS3 has been the unanimous vote for having a game lineup that has many gamers excited. This may be due to the release of Metal Gear Solid 4 last June. This year also saw the release of Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition, which many have been clamoring to buy.
However, Xbox is not far behind. This year comes out Fable 2, the sequel to the game with an incredible story and graphics. It seems that Fable 2 will follow the expectations of the fans and will get better gameplay with wonderful graphics. And there’s always the Rock Band 2 waiting, where even non-exclusive gamers are buying to try out their favorite songs.
There are no updates for Wii Fit use yet, but Nintendo’s Wii release has The House for the Head: Overkill transitioning from the arcade to your home console. The Nintendo DS also has plenty of lineups, one of which includes the long-awaited sequel to Phoenix Wright, with the recently released Ace Attorney Apollo Justice.
Some of the game lineups are cross-platform, like the previously PS-exclusive Final Fantasy XIII, which will use both Xbox 360 and PS3. However, the 2008 game lineups have been staggering so far, and there are still a few months to go.
